Made at an estimated budget of Rs 6 crore and released in almost five times lesser number of screens (400), Lipstick is clearly the winner this weekend. On the other hand, Munna Michael had a budget of Rs 45 crore and was released across 3000 screens.

Munna Michael is the story of a street dancer and a don who wants to learn dancing and win a competition. It featured Nidhi Agerwal, Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Tiger Shroff in lead roles. Lipstick Under My Burkha traces the lives and desires of four women fighting their own set of demons in a patriarchal set-up. The movie featured Ratna Pathak, Aahana Kumra, Konkona Sen Sharma and Plabita Borthakur.
