Rajkummar Rao's Bhool Chuk Maaf earned Rs 26.05 crore in its opening weekend.
Rajkummar Rao's Bhool Chuk Maaf is holding its ground at the box office! After three days in theatres, the film has managed to earn a solid Rs 10 crore on its first Sunday. Despite tough competition and mixed buzz, the movie seems to be finding its audience gradually. Bhool Chuk Maaf, also starring Wamiqa Gabbi, witnessed a total opening weekend collection of Rs 26.05 crore.
Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi's film opened with Rs 7 crore on Friday, saw a healthy jump to Rs 9.5 crore on Saturday, and maintained that upward swing with Rs 9.55 crore on Sunday.
On Sunday, Bhool Chuk Maaf saw its best crowd turnout in Chennai, where theatres recorded a whopping 85 per cent occupancy. Meanwhile, metro cities like Delhi, Bengaluru, and Chandigarh reported more modest but steady footfalls, with occupancy hovering around 25 per cent.
Directed by Karan Sharma, the feel-good rom-com features a stellar ensemble cast alongside Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi, including Seema Pahwa, Sanjay Mishra, Zakir Hussain, Raghubir Yadav, and Jay Thakkar.
Recently, in an interview with News18, Rajkummar had told us that he found BCM's concept unique. 'The way Karan has written the whole story, keeping this time loop in it, the comedy in it, the characters' arch, and in the end, there's a very beautiful social commentary also that we are making. So, it just came together very nicely for me," he shared.
After lighting up the big screens, Bhool Chuk Maaf is expected to drop on Amazon Prime Video just two weeks after its theatrical release.
A part of News18's review of the film read, 'The initial build-up features well-crafted dialogues, humour, and convincing performances by Rao and Gabbi (who plays Titli). Rao's impeccable delivery of one-liners, with the perfect accent and timing, is particularly entertaining. Debutant director Karan Sharma dedicates most of the first half to establishing the loop, though the script could have benefited from more depth there. Having said that, the songs enhance the beauty of the film's setting and the picturisation of Banaras is something that will break the stereotype associated with the place."
Bhool Chuk Maaf tells the quirky story of Ranjan Tiwari (played by Rajkummar Rao), a 25-year-old from Banaras who's head over heels in love with Titli Mishra (Wamiqa Gabbi). The two are all set to elope until Titli gets cold feet at the last minute.
Things take a twist when her strict father (played by Zakir Hussain) lays down a condition: if Ranjan wants to marry her, he needs to land a government job in just two months.
Directed by Karan Sharma, the film also features a solid supporting cast, including Seema Pahwa, Raghubir Yadav, Anubha Fatehpuria, and Jay Thakkar.
