Key Highlights

Bhool Chuk Maaf has amassed approximately Rs 46 crore in worldwide gross collections by day six, with Indian box office earnings contributing around Rs 41 crore net and Rs 44-45 crore gross.
The film opened with a robust Rs 7 crore on its first day, followed by Rs 9.5 crore on Saturday and a peak of Rs 11.5 crore on Sunday, bringing the opening weekend total to Rs 28 crore.
Weekday collections have shown resilience, with Monday and Tuesday each bringing in Rs 4.5-5 crore, and Wednesday adding another Rs 3.25-3.5 crore, keeping the momentum alive.
Bhool Chuk Maaf has already surpassed the lifetime collection of Mr. & Mrs. Mahi, becoming the fifth biggest hit of Rajkummar Rao’s career.
The film’s unique time-loop plot, relatable humor, and the fresh pairing of Rao and Gabbi have resonated with audiences, drawing impressive footfalls and outperforming some major international releases in India.

With no major Hindi releases in the immediate week ahead, the film is expected to comfortably surpass the Rs 50-crore mark globally by the end of its second weekend.

Industry analysts credit the film’s sustained performance to positive word-of-mouth, strategic ticket pricing, and strong support from multiplex audiences. As Bhool Chuk Maaf inches toward the half-century milestone, it cements Rajkummar Rao’s reputation as a box office draw and marks a significant leap for Wamiqa Gabbi in mainstream Bollywood.
