'Michael', the biopic about the legendary pop icon Michael Jackson, has demonstrated impressive growth at the Indian box office, earning ₹5.35 crore on its third day, up from ₹5.10 crore on Saturday. The film, which premiered with ₹3.80 crore on Friday, has accumulated a total net collection of ₹15.85 crore in India, with a gross of ₹18.91 crore including paid previews. Directed by Antoine Fuqua and featuring Jaafar Jackson, the film chronicles Jackson's rise from his early days in Gary, Indiana, through his time with the Jackson 5 and his iconic albums, including 'Off The Wall' and 'Thriller'. Despite facing competition from other films like 'Ginny Weds Sunny 2' and 'Bhooth Bangla', 'Michael' has resonated with audiences, even as it received mixed to negative reviews. Bollywood actor Anupam Kher expressed his admiration for the film, describing it as a profound emotional experience. Critics, however, have noted that the film lacks depth and offers a somewhat superficial portrayal of Jackson's life, suggesting that a sequel might be needed to explore the more complex aspects of his story.
