Bhool Chuk Maaf, a time-loop romantic drama starring Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi, has crossed ₹58 crore worldwide in box office collections since its release on May 23, 2025.
According to industry tracker Sacnilk.com, the film earned ₹46.35 crore net in India and ₹2.1 crore overseas, totaling ₹58 crore by Friday.
“The film earned ₹5.15 crore on its second Saturday, bringing the total to ₹52.50 crore,” reports confirm.

Despite its commercial success, the film has received mixed reviews. ETimes rated it 3 out of 5 stars, noting that “the first half takes a bit too long to get to the point with innumerable songs added for no rhyme or reason,” but praised the second half for addressing “growing apathy, isolated existence, and self-centric living.”

The film’s plot centers on Ranjan, who is stuck in a time loop on his wedding day and must fulfill a forgotten promise to escape it.

However, the film’s release has been marred by legal issues. PVR Inox has sued the makers, alleging a breach of contract and demanding that the film be released in theatres first.

The movie’s box office trajectory showed steady growth, with ₹7 crore earned on opening day and ₹11.5 crore on the first Sunday, culminating in ₹44.1 crore in its first week.

Despite the legal tussle and mixed critical reception, Bhool Chuk Maaf continues to attract audiences with its unique narrative and engaging second half.

Bhool Chuk Maaf earns ₹58 crore worldwide with mixed reviews

The first half takes a bit too long to get to the point with innumerable songs added for no rhyme or reason. Humour is largely clean and safe if you excuse the occasional ‘tatti jokes’. It’s the second half that changes the game. It is here that the film addresses growing apathy, isolated existence, and self-centric living.
