Struggling Rom-Com Ghosted by the Audience, Fails to Gain Momentum
February 25, 2025: Arjun Kapoor, Rakul Preet Singh, and Bhumi Pednekar’s romantic comedy ‘Mere Husband Ki Biwi’ is struggling to find love at the box office. The film, which hit theaters on February 21, 2025, has been failing to pick up steam, with its collections dropping further on Day 4.
Box Office Collection Breakdown
📌 Total Collection (Day 4): ₹4.82 crore
📌 Monday Collection (Day 4): ₹0.51 crore
📌 Opening Day (Friday): ₹1.5 crore
📌 Day 2 (Saturday): ₹1.7 crore
📌 Day 3 (Sunday): ₹1.11 crore
📌 Monday Occupancy: 8.22% (morning shows at just 5.43%)
Despite a gradual increase in evening shows, the film has failed to attract audiences, especially in the wake of Vicky Kaushal’s blockbuster ‘Chhaava’, which is dominating the box office with nearly ₹350 crore in earnings.

Plot & Star Cast
🎭 Arjun Kapoor as Ankur Chaddha
🎭 Rakul Preet Singh as Antara
🎭 Bhumi Pednekar as Prabhleen
🎭 Harsh Gujral in a comic role
Directed by Mudassar Aziz, the film revolves around a complicated love triangle (or as some call it, a “love circle”), where Ankur falls for Antara, only to have his ex-wife Prabhleen re-enter his life, causing chaos.
Can ‘Mere Husband Ki Biwi’ Bounce Back?
With the current trend, the film might struggle to cross ₹10 crore in its lifetime unless it picks up mid-week. With Maha Shivratri around the corner, the makers hope for a slight boost, but the road ahead seems tough.
