Chhichhore box office collection: Sushant Singh Rajput starrer beats Kesari, Bharat

Chhichhore box office collection: Sushant Singh Rajput and Shraddha Kapoor starrer continues to witness solid trends at the box office. The movie's collection has not affected even as Ayushmann Khurrana's biggest ever opener, Dream Girl, made Rs 10.05 crore in India business on day 1. With a collection of Rs 5.34 crore on Friday, Chhichhore has beaten big budget releases like Kesari and Salman Khan when it comes to its second Friday collections. The film has so far made Rs 74.17 crore at the box office. The movie's collection is expected to further get boost on Saturday and Sunday.

"#Chhichhore has recorded higher numbers on *second Friday* than several biggies released in 2019... Second Friday biz...#Chhichhore ₹ 5.34 cr #TotalDhamaal ₹ 4.75 cr #Kesari ₹ 4.45 cr #Bharat ₹ 4.30 cr #GullyBoy ₹ 3.90 cr #Saaho [#Hindi] ₹ 3.75 cr," film trade analyst and critic Taran Adarsh tweeted today.

After a moderate collection of Rs 7.32 crore on the opening day, the film's earnings went up by words on mouth. On the second and third days of its release, the film made Rs 12.25 cr, Rs 16.41, respectively, a substantial increase in earnings.

"#Chhichhore is displaying strong legs at the BO... Continues to surprise with solid trending on [second] Fri... Remains unstoppable, despite a strong opponent [#DreamGirl]... Expect bigger numbers on [second] Sat and Sun... [Week 2] Fri 5.34 cr. Total: ₹ 74.17 cr. #India biz," Adarsh added.

The movie is ruling the box office, despite there are several new releases recently, including Dream Girl and Saaho. Despite it received mixed reviews, the Nitesh Tiwari directorial venture was got a lot of word of mouth publicity, which helped it.  Besides Sushant Singh Rajput and Shraddha Kapoor, the movie also featured actors like Varun Sharma, Prateik Babbar, Tahir Raj Bhasin, Naveen Polishetty, Tushar Pandey, and Saharsh Kumar Shukla.
