Mr. and Mrs. Mahi Advance Box Office Collection Day 1: The much-anticipated sports romantic drama Mr. and Mrs. Mahi, starring Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor, is due to open today, May 31. The film, directed by Sharan Sharma and produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions, stars Rajkummar and Janhvi for the first time and is expected to be a commercial success. So far, over 150,000 tickets have been sold across major national chains such as PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis. With only a few hours left before the release, pre-sales are expected to reach around 200,000 tickets, an impressive figure for a mid-range film, as per sacnilk.com report.
Mr. and Mrs. Mahi is expected to enjoy a solid start at the box office on Friday, owing to Cinema Lovers Day. The movie tickets are available at Rs. 99 only on May 31, and the low offer has helped Mr. and Mrs. Mahi become one of the best-selling movies in the last two months. Although the lower ticket prices are encouraging ticket sales, this may have an impact on the film’s ability to open in the double digits.
The last successful film in 2024 was Yami Gautam’s Article 370, which grossed over Rs 6 crores net under identical circumstances. Given the robust pre-sales trend, Mr. and Mrs. Mahi is projected to open in the neighborhood of Rs 6-7 crores net, which would be a solid start given the lower ticket prices.
Janhvi and Rajkummar’s movie has received a clean ‘U’ certificate and has an approved runtime of 2 hours and 19 minutes. It is expected to be released on 1,000 screens, primarily targeting the multiplex audience.
