Is Love in the Air or Just Another Bollywood Flick? 🎬
Ah, the romcom! A genre that’s been about as rare as a unicorn at a disco in the Bollywood universe lately. The big screen has been dominated by intense dramas, and anything else seems to slip through the cracks of box office oblivion. Over the past four months, only a quartet of films (Pushpa 2, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, Chhaava, Singham Again) have managed to grab the limelight. Enter Mere Husband Ki Biwi, hoping to make a splash—or at least a ripple—in this cinematic sea.
In the pre-pandemic era, romcoms would casually stroll into theaters and bag a neat Rs. 5-7 crores on opening. However, with the OTT invasion, even the big stars have to break a sweat to draw in the crowds. Mere Husband Ki Biwi comes with a modest budget and stars Arjun Kapoor, Rakul Preet Singh, and Bhumi Pednekar. This trio is tasked with the challenge of pulling off a decent opening, hoping the buzz will build from there.
For its opening gambit, the film scored a fair Rs. 1.75 crores on Friday. Thanks to the BOGO (buy one, get one) deals at select venues, it managed to entice some extra moviegoers. Director Mudassar Aziz seems to have piqued the audience’s curiosity just enough for a decent start. The real question is whether this momentum can carry through the weekend, aiming for a lifetime collection of Rs. 15-20 crores.
So, will Mere Husband Ki Biwi be the romcom comeback we’ve been waiting for or just another film to chuck into the "meh" pile? Stay tuned! 🎥

And remember, in Bollywood, it’s not always about happy endings; sometimes, it’s just about the ending that earns the most!
