Not bad at all for a film that faced delays and big-screen competition!

Bhool Chuk Maaf Movie Review
A bright start for a charming tale
Directed by Karan Sharma, ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ released in cinemas on 23 May. Despite a few delays before release, the film got off to a strong start, opening with Rs. 7.2 crore on day one. The first week brought in Rs. 44.3 crore in total – a fantastic achievement for a film that isn’t backed by heavy action or massive budgets, but instead by strong storytelling and warm performances.

As per early estimated by Sacnilk, the eighth day added another Rs. 3.15 crore to its name, bringing the total up to Rs. 47.45 crore. That means the film may cross the Rs. 50 crore milestone very soon.


Day 8 occupancy
On its eighth day, ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ recorded an overall Hindi occupancy of 10.90% in cinema. Viewership grew steadily throughout the day, with morning shows starting at 5.27%, afternoon shows rising to 11.80%, evening shows at 11.21%, and night shows peaking at 15.32%.


What is ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ about?
Set in the spiritual city of Banaras, ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ tells the story of Ranjan, played by Rajkummar Rao. He’s madly in love with Titli, played by Wamiqa Gabbi, and wants to marry her. To do that, he needs to get a government job – or so he believes. But things take a turn when he breaks a vow made to Lord Shiva and ends up in a complicated mess. What follows is a heartwarming and funny tale of love, second chances, and doing the right thing. The story strikes a lovely balance between humour and emotion, which seems to have clicked with audiences, especially families.

‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ review
A review by ETimes gave it 3 out of 5 stars and said, “The first half takes a bit too long to get to the point with innumerable songs added for no rhyme or reason. Humour is largely clean and safe if you excuse the occasional ‘tatti jokes’. It’s the second half that changes the game. It is here that the film addresses growing apathy, isolated existence, and self-centric living.”
