What’s the Story?
Bhool Chuk Maaf tells the story of Ranjan (Rajkummar Rao), who believes he must secure a government job to win over his love, Titli (Wamiqa Gabbi). However, his journey takes an unexpected turn when he breaks a vow to Lord Shiva, leading to a series of humorous and heartwarming challenges.

Critical Response
ETimes gave the film a rating of 3 out of 5 stars, noting, “The first half takes a bit too long to get to the point with numerous songs added for no rhyme or reason. Humour is largely clean and safe if you excuse the occasional ‘tatti jokes.’ It’s the second half that changes the game, addressing growing apathy, isolated existence, and self-centric living.”
