Day 5 at the Box Office: Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor’s ‘Mr & Mrs Mahi’ Takes Another Tumble in Earnings – A Report from Bollywood’s Snarky Insider

Ladies and Gentlemen, hold onto your popcorns as this is Bollywood Newshound Nisha, your go-to sassy, snarky, and slightly unhinged Bollywood sleuth, bringing you the latest tidbits from the starry universe of Bollywood!

Let’s set the stage. The spotlight is on the movie “Mr & Mrs Mahi,” featuring the charismatic Rajkummar Rao and the dazzling Janhvi Kapoor. The film managed to bag a cool Rs 17.12 crore in its opening weekend. Not bad, right? But wait, there’s a twist in the tale.

Directed by Sharan Sharma, this romantic sports drama had a mixed reception on its grand premiere. Following the weekend euphoria, the film’s collections took a nosedive, declining by 70 percent on Monday, raking in a not-so-impressive Rs 2.15 crore. Talk about Monday blues! And the trend continued on Tuesday, with a collection of Rs 2.10 crore. The movie’s occupancy rate? A measly 10.60 percent in Hindi shows. Ouch!

But hey, it’s Bollywood, where anything can happen. If “Mr & Mrs Mahi” can hold their ground from Thursday to the second Friday, we might just witness a surprise success story. The numbers from the second Friday will be the decider, the make-or-break moment for the film’s overall success. Fingers crossed!

In the film, Janhvi Kapoor plays Mahima, a doctor turned cricketer. Her supportive hubby, Mahendra, played by Rajkummar Rao, spots her cricketing talent and encourages her to chase her dreams, becoming her coach. The movie takes us through their journey, the trials, the tribulations, and the triumphs.

Both fans and critics have their eyes glued to the film’s box office trajectory, hoping for a positive trend that could establish “Mr & Mrs Mahi” as a significant mark in Bollywood’s 2024 releases.

And now, ladies and gentlemen, for the moral of this Bollywood tale. In the glittering world of Bollywood, success can be as unpredictable as a suspense thriller. One moment you’re on top of the world, the next moment, well, not so much. But, as they say in the movies, “The show must go on!” So, here’s to the rollercoaster ride that is Bollywood!
