‘Half Girlfriend’ holds strong at the box office over the weekend

Last Friday, we had two films clashing at the box office. Irrfan Khan and Saba Qamar-starrer ‘Hindi Medium’ locked horns with Shraddha Kapoor and Arjun Kapoor-starrer ‘Half Girlfriend‘. Both the films received rave reviews from the audience but looks like ‘Half Girlfriend’ is the one holding audiences attention. The film started on a good note by minting approximately Rs 10 crore at the box office and this trend continued over the weekend. As per the statistics, the film has crossed Rs 30 crore mark over the weekend which is phenomenal.

Directed by Mohit Suri, ‘Half Girlfriend’ is the adaptation of Chetan Bhagat’s novel of the same name. With Shraddha Kapoor and Arjun Kapoor playing the titular roles in the film, ‘Half Girlfriend’ is a movie about a man from Bihar falling in love with a high-society girl from Delhi. How their love story twirls is what the film reveals.

Talking about ‘Hindi Medium’, Irrfan and Saba Qamar-starrer had a social message to convey, but unfortunately, it failed to grab audiences’ attention. The weekend collection of ‘Hindi Medium’ stands at Rs 11.25 crore, which is decent, but not up to the mark we would say! (Also Read: Here’s how ‘Half Girlfriend’ is already a winner for its makers)
