Govinda Naam Mera: The Bhumi-Vicky-Kiara trio a hit or a flop?

New Delhi: More than 10 days past its OTT release, Govinda Naam Mera is all up for dissection. Was this Shashank Khaitan movie a hit or a flop is the question. Since releasing directly on OTT there are no box office numbers to analyze the success or failure of the film. But, Disney+ Hotstar has its internal criteria to determine what can be called a flop, a hit or a super hit.

The budget for the film was about Rs. 50 crores and the film was bought for Rs. 62 crores by Disney+ Hotstar. Govinda Naam Mera starring Bhumi Pednekar, Vicky Kaushal and Kiara Advani grabbed all our attention with its release. The film got 8.2 Million views in its opening weekend and was the most watched content on OTT that week. Surpassing Kartik Aryan’s Freddy and Akshay Kumar’s Cuttputli, the film became the 6th highest-watched content on OTT of all time.

To give perspective, views of more than 7 Million are considered a benchmark for calling a film or series a hit. This is so because most content on OTT whether good or bad gets 2 Million views on average. Vicky Kaushal’s last movie Sardar Uddham opened with 3.8 million views. Considering this was a Dharma Productions film and released on Disney+ Hotstar which is known to get better views, Govinda Naam Mera is said to be a Super Hit. It hit 10.4 Million views recently with numbers growing still and became the #1 most-viewed streaming show/movie for 2 weeks in a row.

Streaming now on Disney+ Hotstar the film’s numbers that are still growing. If you haven’t watched it yet, watch Govinda Naam Mera today and decide how you liked the film!
