Rajkummar Rao has been having a great time at the box office as his film Srikanth recently walked past the Rs 50 crore mark, and the actor celebrated the milestone. While the biopic is still on the big screen, the actor reunited with his Roohi star Janhvi Kapoor as they witnessed the release of their second collaboration titled Mr & Mrs Mahi. It is a film that stars both the actors as man and wife and explores their marriage as they both have a common passion for cricket. Last Friday, the film that hit the theatres on May 31 opened to mixed responses from the critics and had raised concerns about the movie, which impressed everyone with its trailer.
Nevertheless, the film has successfully maintained a respectable performance during its initial weekend in theaters and has consistently earned a substantial amount. By the conclusion of the first weekend, the film has accumulated a commendable collection, indicating a promising trajectory. According to the trade experts, “Mr & Mrs Mahi” has managed to collect Rs 6 crore mark on its third day and has now reached a strong total of Rs 18 crore net at the domestic box office by the end of Sunday, which marked the conclusion of its debut weekend. Mr & Mrs Mahi experienced a 22.24% Hindi occupancy on Sunday, which is a positive figure for a film that received lackluster reviews upon its release. Despite this, the movie earned Rs 7 crore on the first day and Rs 5 crore on the second. The real challenge lies ahead as it enters the second week after the weekend. Observing if the film can sustain or even increase its momentum during the weekdays will be intriguing.
Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor play the leads in Mr & Mrs Mahi, a film that delves into the lives of a couple brought together through an arranged marriage. As the story unfolds, the husband discovers his wife’s innate talent for cricket while he himself grapples with his failed sports career. Determined to fulfill his own aspirations vicariously through her, he embarks on a journey to transform her into a cricketer. The sport becomes the focal point of their relationship, leading to both exhilarating moments and unforeseen chaos. Through their shared pursuit of this dream, they navigate the challenges and find the key to keeping their bond alive.
