New Delhi: Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt starrer ‘Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani’ has finally released this Friday ( 28 July 2023). The much-anticipated family drama has gained positive reviews from viewers and managed to earn a decent amount on Day 1 of its release. The film minted an amount of 11.50 crore on Friday as per the trade portal Sacnilk.
Rocky Aur Raani Ki Prem Kahaani marks the collaboration of Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt after their successful pairing with Zoya Akhtar’s backed Gully Boy in 2019. The film features various veteran actors including Jaya Bachchan, Dharmendra, and Shabana Azmi. The film was promoted extensively by the makers in the past few days but still laged behind Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer which minted 14.5 crore on its opening day( 21 July 2023) at Indian Box Office.
#RockyAurRaniKiiPremKahaani hits double digits on Day 1… Day 1 biz is clearly lopsided… The contribution from major centres [mainly multiplexes] is good, but Tier 2 and Tier 3 centres did not perform to optimum capacity… Fri ₹ 11.10 cr. #India biz.#RRKPK needs to witness… pic.twitter.com/0YESqdpQt9
