Disappointing Box Office: ‘Mere Husband Ki Biwi’ Day 2 Sees Minimal Growth Despite Star Power of Arjun Kapoor, Rakul Preet Singh, and Bhumi Pednekar
“Mere Husband Ki Biwi,” a romantic comedy featuring Arjun Kapoor, Rakul Preet Singh, and Bhumi Pednekar, showed a slight improvement in box office numbers on its second day. Opening at Rs 1.5 crore on Friday, the film’s Saturday collections increased to an estimated Rs 1.65 crore, bringing the total to approximately Rs 3.15 crore. The film’s Hindi occupancy was modest, peaking at 27.27% during night shows. Despite facing tough competition from Vicky Kaushal’s “Chhaava” and the Hollywood release “Babygirl,” featuring Nicole Kidman, the film managed to maintain its position in the market.
Directed by Mudassar Aziz, “Mere Husband Ki Biwi” navigates a competitive landscape where “Chhaava” continues to lead, earning an estimated Rs 45 crore on Saturday. Produced on a reported budget of Rs 60 crore, the film’s future earnings remain uncertain. Comparisons have been drawn with the recent Hollywood release “Captain America: Brave New World,” which opened with similar figures and reached a first-week collection of Rs 16 crore.
The plot centers around Arjun Kapoor’s character, Ankur Chaddha, entangled in a love triangle with his ex-wife, played by Bhumi Pednekar, and his current love interest, portrayed by Rakul Preet Singh. As the film concludes its first week, industry analysts are observing whether it can gain momentum amidst stiff competition.
