Impressive numbers considering the clash with Ayushmann's Thamma! Milap Milan Zaveri knows how to make mass entertainers. The music is really catchy too - been listening to the songs on loop!

Saw the film yesterday with friends. It's a typical Bollywood masala film - nothing extraordinary but perfect for Diwali entertainment. Sonam Bajwa looks gorgeous and Harshvardhan has improved a lot since his earlier films.

While the numbers are good, I wish we had more original content instead of these formulaic romantic dramas. The industry needs to take more creative risks, especially during festival seasons.

Good to see smaller centers driving the box office. Tier-2 and Tier-3 audiences have different tastes and it's smart that producers are catering to them. Hope the film maintains momentum through the weekend!
