Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, starring Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon, hit theaters on Friday. Following a respectable opening day of Rs 6.70 crore at the box office, the movie saw a nearly 40% increase on the second day. Industry tracker Sacnilk reports that on Saturday, the romantic comedy made Rs 9.50 crore. The movie has now earned a total of Rs 16.20 crore. On Saturday, the movie’s Hindi occupancy rate was 22.16% overall.
With a 65 percent occupancy rate, Chennai had the highest rate, followed by Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Pune. Amit Joshi and Aradhana Sah, debut directors, are behind Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, which also stars Dharmendra, Dimple Kapadia, and Rakesh Bedi in important roles.
Mrunal Thakur and Pankaj Kapur costarred in Shahid’s last theatrical release, Jersey (2022), which opened with Rs 2.93 crore and ended with Rs 19.68 cr. It was a box office bomb. Not even Kriti’s most recent film, Ganpath, starring Tiger Shroff and Amitabh Bachchan, was able to draw audiences to the theaters.
Within the realm of artificial intelligence, the film narrates a singular love story. Shahid portrays a scientist who grows fond of Kriti, an intelligent female robot. Trade expert Taran Adarsh claims that with a worldwide opening day making over $700k, the movie has set a record for Shahid.
