Ka-ching!

Looks like Saba Qamar's Bollywood debut film Hindi Medium is going strong.

The film has crossed the 50 crore mark in the Indian box office, revealed movie business analyst Taran Adarsh.

Hindi Medium, which released on May 19, has a lot going for it.

Apart from Irrfan Khan's obvious pull factor, word-of-mouth publicity may have also contributed to its success. Actors Saba Qamar and Irrfan Khan have been praised for their strong performances and many in the audience have said to have related to the ordeal of parents bending over backwards to have their child admitted in a good school.

Separated by political boundaries, connected by shared culture. This is really a nice movie.

Great. Now the fortunes of her small co star, Irfan Khan, should brighten up.

Has 50 crore got something to do with Saba Qamar's presence in the movie ?

50 crores is peanuts in bollywood. Superhits like danga, bahubali have crossed 1500 crores.

The film should touch 150 crore atleast. It has been made tax free in some states due to its meaningful subject.

Just 50 cr is not to boast wen Bench mark is 500 or 1000 cr. Still the movie made money and gave Indian govt 5 cr tax to buy.

Irfan is a very high quality actor and Saba is sweet and have done very good job. The talent speaks, no need to do marketing and promotion for months. This is a film for thinkers, not for time-pass entertainment. Hope they work together in other interesting movies.

@Indian Brother, you have a problem, get a treatment. This much of hate does not help. BTW, I am from India as well.

She deserves the success. As Irfan is not as bigger a star as his contemporories... The success needs to be split. She has got a future. However Please donnot make politicallybloaded statements...

@Suhas 50cr is not a Peanut. Baahubali 2 (1300cr Gross/ 1050cr Nett) is a rare film like Sholey (30cr Gross/15cr Nett in 1975) & HAHK (120cr Gross/ 74cr Nett in 1994). Which come once in a Decade. Here Estimate Footfalls :- Sholey : 14cr, Baahubali : 10-10.5cr*, HAHK : 7.4cr, Dangal : 3.70cr* . Last year whole Tollywood film Industry Gross around 1260cr. This year Baahubali 2 alone grossed 1300cr
