Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor-starrer Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar (TJMM) continued to dominate the box office in India on its second Friday despite new releases — DC Studios’ Shazam! Fury of the Gods and Rani Mukerji’s Mrs. Chatterjee Vs Norway — hitting the theatres this week.
The Luv Ranjan-directed romantic comedy added another Rs 3.75 crore nett to its coffers on Friday against Shazam! Fury of the Gods’ Rs 3.4 crore, according to box office records. Mrs. Chatterjee Vs Norway was off to a slow start on Friday, earning only Rs 1.75 crore nett at the domestic box office. TJMM’s total collection in India now stands at Rs 96.56 crore.
Shazam! Fury of the Gods, the second installment in the Shazam franchise, stars Zachary Levi in the lead role. The film revolves around Billy Batson (played by Levi and Asher Angel) and his foster siblings who are grappling with the superpowers bestowed on them.
Ashima Chhiber’s emotional drama, Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway, is based on a real-life incident involving an Indian immigrant mother in Norway who fights a grueling legal battle against the entire nation to win back the custody of her children. The film also marks Bengali actor Anirban Bhattacharya’s Hindi feature debut.
Meanwhile, comedian Kapil Sharma’s latest feature film Zwigato, directed by Nandita Das, failed to make a mark at the box office on its opening day. The film, which also stars Shahana Goswami, raked in a meagre Rs 0.40 crore nett on its first day in theatres.
