Bhool Chuk Maaf Crosses Rs. 32 Crore in Just 4 Days

Breaking through the clutter of regular romantic dramas, Bhool Chuk Maaf has emerged as a surprise success story at the Indian box office. Blending comedy, drama, and a unique time-loop narrative, the film has not only intrigued cinephiles but also sparked widespread praise for its lead performances by Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi.

Released on May 23, 2025, the film had a rocky path to theatres, delayed by multiple hurdles and clashing with major Hollywood titles. Yet, none of that dampened its reception. Audiences were quick to connect with the fresh storyline, and critics have lauded the compelling chemistry between the leads and the heartfelt storytelling.

Box Office Update: A Promising Start

According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Bhool Chuk Maaf opened to a solid Rs. 7 crore on day one. With strong word-of-mouth and positive reviews, the film witnessed a sharp upswing over the weekend — earning Rs. 9.5 crore on Saturday and an impressive Rs. 11.5 crore on Sunday. Though Monday saw a natural slowdown, bringing in Rs. 4.75 crore (as per early estimates), the film’s four-day total now stands at a commendable Rs. 32.75 crore.

Given the competition and pre-release controversies, these numbers highlight the film’s growing momentum and mass appeal.

A Tale of Love, Fate, and Redemption

Bhool Chuk Maaf tells the intriguing story of Ranjan, a spirited young man from small-town India who falls for a girl from Banaras. Determined to win her hand, he vows to secure a government job, only to unwittingly break a promise made to Lord Shiva. What follows is a surreal, fate-driven loop of events that force him to confront his mistakes and find redemption.

Rajkummar Rao brings depth and humor to Ranjan, while Wamiqa Gabbi charms with a grounded yet vibrant performance. Their chemistry is electric, and the film’s offbeat narrative keeps viewers hooked until the very end.
