Earlier, the state governments of Jharkhand and Uttar Pradesh had waived the entertainment tax, and now Maharashtra has followed the step. This means that the ticket sales might increase, as the ticket prices will drop due to the tax-free label.

After being declared tax free in Jharkhand, the next state to join the list was Uttar Pradesh. “We are extremely thrilled and thankful to the government of Uttar Pradesh and Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav for giving the film tax free status. It is an overwhelming feeling to be seeing this biopic of Mahi’s life getting such recognition,” Arun Pandey, the producer of the movie said in a statement.

And now Maharastra took the headlines with MS Dhoni: The Untold Story producer Arun Pandey said in a statement, “We are humbled and thankful to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and his team for making Mahis biopic tax-free in the state. Mahis journey is inspirational and through this more people will get to see the movie and see the life of this amazing sportsman.”

The Neeraj Pandey film released in theatres on September 30 and since then, it has earned Rs 94.13 crore up until Thursday (October 6).

The movie has defeated Shah Rukh Khan’s Fan and Akshay Kumar’s Rustom in it’s first day collections is gaining momentum with each passing day. Neeraj Pandey has been successful in sharing this untold journey about India’s skipper which we are sure his fans were excited to see.

The actor has been praised for Dhoni’s qualities, including steadfastness to the oddly effete nail-biting manner, all in his gait, demeanour, attitude and gaze.
