Sharan Sharma’s film, Mr & Mrs Mahi, starring Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor, made a significant impact on its opening day. The film raked in around Rs 6.75 crores upon its release. Released on Cinema Lovers Day (May 31) with tickets priced at a flat rate of Rs 99, it showed promise of becoming another success for the actors.
The film’s performance is noteworthy for several reasons. Initially planned for a direct-to-digital release, its strong theatrical debut surprised many.

This contrasts with stars previously considered box office draws, who now face the challenge of captivating audiences solely with their performances.
Talking about the duo, let’s have a look at the their top box office openers so far.
