What’s Bhool Chuk Maaf About?
Ranjan (Rajkummar Rao), a small-town romantic from Varanasi, scores a government job to marry Titli (Wamiqa Gabbi). But there’s a twist—he’s trapped in a time loop, stuck reliving his haldi ceremony on the 29th, never reaching the wedding day (30th).
Why? A forgotten vow to Lord Shiva! It’s a hilarious ride of wedding chaos, love, and redemption, shot against Varanasi’s vibrant ghats. Think Stree’s fun vibe mixed with Groundhog Day’s loop magic. Ready for the bhasad?

Pinkvilla predicts ₹3 crore India net (₹3.6 crore gross), plus ₹1–2 crore overseas, but a clash with Jaat (Sunny Deol, ₹10 crore net expected) may dent it.
- Weekend: Strong buzz could hit ₹15–20 crore globally by Sunday; weak reviews risk ₹10–12 crore.
- Budget: Estimated ₹30–40 crore. Needs ~₹80 crore worldwide for a “hit,” per Vicky Vidya’s ₹55 crore (average).

Honest Review: The Good, The Not-So-Good
Does Bhool Chuk Maaf deliver the laughs and love? Here’s our honest review, based on trailer buzz and Maddock’s rom-com track record. (Full review updates post-release.)
Story and Direction
- Pros: Karan Sharma’s time-loop concept is fresh, blending humor with Varanasi’s desi chaos. The Shiva vow adds a clever twist, per the April 10 trailer. It’s got Maddock’s crowd-pleasing vibe (Luka Chuppi).
- Cons: (Speculative) If loops drag or the climax feels rushed, it could lose steam, like Vicky Vidya’s patchy pacing.
- Verdict: A fun, heartfelt script if it stays tight.
Performances
- Rajkummar Rao: Ranjan’s mix of goofy and emotional is tailor-made for Rajkummar (Srikanth’s charm). Expect big laughs.
- Wamiqa Gabbi: Titli’s spark (Khufiya vibes) and chemistry with Rajkummar look electric in promos.
- Supporting Cast: Sanjay Mishra, Raghubir Yadav, and Seema Pahwa promise side-splitting moments.
- Verdict: A cast that’ll win hearts.
Music
- Pros: Tanishk Bagchi’s Koi Naa is a hit on X, perfect for shaadi playlists. More tracks could shine, per Maddock’s song legacy (Coca Cola).
- Cons: Weak integration might make songs feel like fillers.
- Verdict: Catchy, if story-driven.
Cinematography
- Sudeep Chatterjee’s Varanasi visuals—ghats, galis—look stunning. The 2-hour-50-minute runtime needs crisp editing to keep the vibe alive.
- Verdict: A desi visual delight.
Our Rating
(Post-release): Early guess—3.5/5 stars for fun and feels, pending final polish. Stay tuned!
Hit or Flop? Our Verdict
Will Bhool Chuk Maaf soar or sink? Here’s our take, updated as collections roll in.
- Box Office Metrics:
- Budget: ~₹30–40 crore, typical for Maddock rom-coms.
- Hit Mark: Needs ₹80 crore worldwide gross for “hit,” ₹50 crore for “average.” Below ₹40 crore risks “flop,” per Vicky Vidya’s ₹55 crore benchmark.
- Early Signs: A ₹5 crore+ worldwide day 1 is a good start; sub-₹3 crore spells trouble, especially with Jaat’s mass pull.
- Audience Buzz:
- X posts (9.2K+ BookMyShow interest) love the trailer’s “Varanasi bhasad” and Koi Naa. Families may flock, but youth need non-stop laughs.
- Verdict (Tentative): Crosses ₹60 crore with solid reviews? Semi-hit. Dips below ₹40 crore? Likely a flop. Final call by May 16!
