After a promising weekend run, the romantic comedy ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’, featuring the talented duo Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi, faced its first slowdown at the box office. On Day 4 (Monday), the film collected ₹4.75 crore, marking a noticeable dip from its Sunday numbers. Despite the decline, the movie has managed to maintain a solid momentum overall, with its total domestic collection now standing at ₹32.75 crore. This performance reflects both the film’s initial pull and the typical Monday slump that often follows a strong weekend. While the drop isn’t surprising, all eyes are now on how it sustains through the weekdays.
Strong Weekend, But Monday Slows Down Momentum
The film opened to decent numbers and gained momentum through the weekend:
- Day 1 (Friday): ₹7 crore
- Day 2 (Saturday): ₹9.5 crore
- Day 3 (Sunday): ₹11.5 crore
- Day 4 (Monday): ₹4.75 crore
The Monday dip is a common trend, especially for films that see front-loaded business. While the numbers have dipped, the overall weekend performance has helped the film stay in the race.
Performance Compared to Other Releases
‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ has fared better than several recent mid-budget releases like ‘Phule’ and ‘Ground Zero’, both of which struggled to cross double-digit figures in the same span. The film’s light-hearted time-loop concept and performances by a strong ensemble cast have contributed to its box office pull.
What’s Working for the Film?
- Unique Storyline: A romantic comedy with a time-loop twist
- Strong Performances: Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi praised for their chemistry
- Family Appeal: A clean entertainer drawing crowds across age groups
- Good Word of Mouth: Especially in urban circuits and Tier-1 cities
Can It Maintain Momentum?
The film’s performance in the coming weekdays will be critical. With no major releases this week, ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ has room to grow, especially if it holds well on Tuesday and Wednesday. However, it will face stiffer competition next weekend with bigger titles arriving.
