Mr And Mrs Mahi directed by Sharan Sharma and starring Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor, emerged as Janhvi Kapoor's second biggest opening at the Indian box office as it netted Rs 6.75 crores on Cinema Lovers Day, where tickets were priced at a flat rate of Rs 99 for the standard formats. Dhadak, which marked Janhvi Kapoor's debut, still remains her biggest opener to date. The movie netted around Rs 8.75 crores on the opening day and what's interesting is that it was considered to be an average opener.

Mr And Mrs Mahi Becomes Janhvi Kapoor's 2nd Biggest Opener; Why Is It Special?

Mr And Mrs Mahi's collections are pretty special for a number of reasons. Firstly, it is a film that was contemplated to release directly on digital. Secondly, it generated the highest first day footfalls for Janhvi Kapoor. Thirdly, it released after the debacle of Mili at the box office, where a consolidation on the theatrical front was absolutely critical.

Mr And Mrs Mahi Showed That Price Sensitivity In A Market Like India Is Extremely Critical

Mr And Mrs Mahi not just took a good opening but also proved that if tickets are priced at a subsidised rate, audiences will turn up to the theatres to watch the film. Tickets should not necessarily be priced at Rs 99 but a price under Rs 200 through the day can go a long way.

Mr And Mrs Mahi Will Have To Hold Its Ground At The Box Office On Saturday And Sunday

The footfalls for Mr And Mrs Mahi have obviously come down on the second day as tickets are back to the prevailing rates. Still, if the movie is able to hold its ground on Saturday and consolidate further on Sunday, it will be on its way to emerge as yet another successful Bollywood film of the year.
