‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ Day 2 Box Office: Rajkummar Rao Starrer Picks Up Pace, Earns Rs 9 Crore
Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi’s latest film Bhool Chuk Maaf is showing a promising trend at the box office. After a decent start, the time-loop comedy witnessed an upward trajectory on its second day in theatres. According to early estimates by Sacnilk.com, the film has earned ₹16 crore in total so far.
Box Office Performance So Far
The film collected ₹7 crore on its opening day and added another ₹9 crore on Saturday, taking its two-day domestic total to ₹16 crore. Bhool Chuk Maaf recorded a Hindi occupancy rate of 25.18% on day two, reflecting steady audience interest. Directed by Karan Sharma, the story follows a man stuck in a time loop on the day before his wedding — a high-concept premise that’s resonating with younger viewers.
Comparing Rajkummar Rao’s Recent Films
In terms of performance, Bhool Chuk Maaf has outpaced Rao’s previous outing Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video, which had earned ₹5.5 crore and ₹6.9 crore on its first two days, respectively. However, it still trails behind the actor’s 2024 blockbuster Stree 2, which posted an impressive ₹51.8 crore on day one and ₹31.4 crore on day two.
Controversy Ahead of Release
Just days before hitting the screens, the film faced uncertainty over its release schedule. Maddock Films had initially announced a postponement, citing national security drills following Operation Sindoor and stating the film would premiere directly on Prime Video on May 16. However, the decision was reversed, and the film saw a theatrical release as planned on May 9. Despite the confusion, audience turnout has remained positive.
With growing word of mouth, Bhool Chuk Maaf may continue its strong run through the weekend.
