Rajkummar Rao continues his successful streak at the box office with his latest sci-fi romantic comedy Bhool Chuk Maaf, co-starring Wamiqa Gabbi. Directed by Karan Sharma, the film has shown remarkable growth in its theatrical run, recovering its entire production budget within just nine days.

“Rajkummar Rao has added another success to his filmography. His sci-fi romantic comedy, Bhool Chuk Maaf, co-starring Wamiqa Gabbi has recovered 100% of its budget within 9 days of its theatrical run. It has already started minting profits. Scroll below for the latest box office collections!”

According to official reports, the film experienced a notable surge in revenue on its second Saturday. “The official figures are out! Bhool Chuk Maaf earned 5.40 crores on day 9. Thanks to the second Saturday boost, it enjoyed a 63% jump in box office collections. The overall collections in India stand at 54.12 crore net, which is around 63.86 crores in gross earnings.”

With a reported budget of ₹50 crores, the film has already entered the profit zone. “Rajkummar Rao starrer is reportedly made on a budget of 50 crores. It is now officially a success, with a return on investment of 4.12 crores already in the kitty. However, as per Koimoi’s parameters, a film earns the ‘hit’ verdict once it earns double its investment.
