Even as Chhichhore has to face competition from big releases like Akshay Kumar's Mission Mangal and Prabhas' Saaho at the box office, this low-budget film, however, has sailed through successfully. After the release of Chhichhore, Saaho's (Hindi version) collections have dropped. Released on August 30, Saaho has earned nearly Rs 140 crore at the domestic box office market, but the Hindi version could earn merely Rs 21.5 crore in its second week.

The Sushant Singh starrer Chhichhore has also been appreciated by film trade analyst and critic Taran Adarsh, who today tweeted, "#Chhichhore Day 7 [Thu] is higher than Day 1 [Fri] and Day 6 [Wed]... Power of solid content... Excellent trending!"

He also expressed confidence that the film is fast moving towards Rs 100 crore club, and said, "#Chhichhore surpasses all expectations, estimations and calculations... Packs a fantastic total in Week 1... En route ₹ 100 cr... Fri 7.32 cr, Sat 12.25 cr, Sun 16.41 cr, Mon 8.10 cr, Tue 10.05 cr, Wed 7.20 cr, Thu 7.50 cr. Total: ₹ 68.83 cr. #India biz. HIT."

Chhichhore is set to enter in its second weekend, is likely to face tough challenge with the much-hyped film Dream Girl, starring Ayushmann Khurrana, and Article 375, starring Richa Chaddha and Akshay Khanna. Both the film have received positive reviews from critics.
