'Bunty Aur Babli 2' Box Office Collection Day 1: Rani Mukerji-Saif Ali Khan's Film Starts On A Slow Note
Bunty Aur Babli 2 couldn't create ripples at the box office on its opening day.
New Delhi: Rani Mukerji and Saif Ali Khan starrer 'Bunty Aur Babli 2', which released on Friday (November 19), couldn't set the cash registers jingling on its first day. The black comedy film failed to perform as per expectations and started on a slow note despite getting a boost from the North Indian markets. The movie co-starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Sharvari Wagh received mixed reviews from the critics, which seem to have affected its performance at the box office.
