u cannot formally split it b/c there is no distinctive split
pattern
here. what u can do is match the input as 3 groups: (.NET
syntax)

\A(?si)(?<group_1>\[.*?\])\s*(?<group_2>\[.
*?\])\s*(?<group_3>.*?)\Z

(SingleOption ON and IgnoreCase On enforced in the syntax of
the regex
**(?si)**

SO the groups will be:

$1 [Bulk]
$2 [symbiancollection]
$3 Free English & Indian Movies 36 China Town, Gangster
, Mission
impossible 3

you may try this pattern:

    \A(\[[^]]*\])\s*(\[[^]]*\])\s*(.*)\z

or if you have a "split" function, you can use
the following pattern to
split your string into three pieces:

    (?<=\])\s+
