Caters to a niche audience	Fell significantly in its second weekend. However, the producers, who have distributed the film themselves, stand to make good profits due to its low costs
No One Killed Jessica	Rani Mukerji, Vidya Balan, Neil Bhoopalam, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayub, Myra, Rajesh Sharma, Satyadeep Misra, Shireesh Sharma	A poignant story of two women's resolve for justice narrated with utmost sensitivity by director Rajkumar Gupta	Could've been trimmed for a stronger impact	Hit
