It is difficult for a regional film to stand out, especially when it is released only a week ahead of Alia Bhatt’s Gangubai Kathiawadi, and Robert Pattinson’s The Batman, that released on March 4. However, Digpal Lanjekar’s Marathi film Pawankhind, which released on February 18, not only managed to woo the audiences, but is also expected to make Rs 30 crore at the box office by the end of the fourth week. The budget of the film was close to Rs 5.5 crore.
