Sense prevailed in the B-town as 10 multiplex owners in Mumbai decided to go ahead with the screening while the single screen theatres decided against showing the movie for the time being as they are not in a position to meet the requirements for extra security.
Giving a positive signal to the people of Mumbai, Maharashtra CM Shri Ashok Chauhan amid unprecedented security for the film’s release, Maharashtra Home Minister R R Patil drove to multiplex INOX to catch the first show of ’MNIK’.
There was some protest at Fame Andheri but police came in and arrested the protesters and the show went on peacefully. King Khan who is in Berlin, tweeted early on Friday morning, "good m’ing mumbai. wotever the fate of the film, never wished this upon the city that made my dreams come true & gave me all. i belong to u (sic)."
The film opened to full houses in Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata, Chennai and several other cities.
