Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi’s latest film ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’, released on May 23, 2025, is proving to be a surprise hit at the box office. Despite minimal pre-release buzz, the film is winning hearts and performing far better than expected.
A Surprising Box Office Success
Bhool Chuk Maaf, produced by Maddock Films, started off quietly but quickly gained momentum after release. Positive word-of-mouth has helped the film maintain strong numbers well into its second week.
Day 9 Sees Big Jump in Collection
The film saw a significant jump in earnings on its second Saturday. As per trade reports, the Day 9 collection marked a growth of over 45% from the previous day, showing continued audience interest.
Rajkummar Rao’s Golden Phase
Rajkummar Rao is riding high with back-to-back hits. After his entertaining performances in ‘Stree 2’ and ‘Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video’, he is now impressing viewers once again in ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’. His choice of diverse roles continues to win audience appreciation.
No Major Competition Boosted its Run
One of the key reasons behind the film’s success is its solo release. With no major Bollywood film released alongside, ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ had a clear run at the box office. The last big release, ‘Raid 2’, came out on May 1. However, the film’s smooth journey may face a challenge soon as Akshay Kumar’s ‘Housefull 5’ is scheduled for release on June 6.
OTT Release Coming Soon
While the film continues to do well in theatres, it will also arrive on OTT shortly. ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ is expected to stream on Amazon Prime Video about two weeks after its theatrical release, giving fans another chance to catch it online.
Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi’s film is proving that content-driven cinema still holds strong appeal. All eyes are now on how it performs once new competition arrives.
