According to a report by industry tracker Sacnilk, Mission Raniganj brought in a decent amount of Rs 2.8 crore nett on its opening day. The film witnessed a rise in its collection in the following two days collecting Rs 4.8 crore nett and Rs 5 crore nett respectively. However, on its first Monday, the rescue drama earned its lowest, gathering just Rs 1.1 crore nett.

Helmed by Tinu Suresh Desai, Mission Raniganj also features Bollywood actor Parineeti Chopra. After essaying the role of messenger of Lord Shiva in OMG 2, Akshay Kumar is back on the big screen with this real-life incident drama. In Mission Raniganj, the superstar is seen portraying the role of Jaswant Singh Gill, a brave and sincere mining engineer, who rescued 65 miners trapped at Raniganj Coalfields in West Bengal in 1989.
Meanwhile, Thank You For Coming, which stars Bhumi Pednekar, Shehnaaz Gill, Kusha Kapila, Dolly Singh, and Shibani Bedi in key roles, did not have a good box office opening. The sex comedy-drama minted just Rs 1.06 crore net on its release day and is still struggling at the box office. As per early estimates by Sacnilk, the Karan Boolani directorial may rake in only Rs 0.41 crore nett on day 5, bringing its total to Rs 5.18 crore nett at the domestic box office. However, with good reviews from the viewers, the comedy flick is anticipated to bring decent numbers at the box office in the near future.
