Vicky Kaushal and Manushi Chhillar starrer The Great Indian Family recorded minimal increase in its box office collection on second day. It has been reported that the film earned Rs 1.80 crore on Saturday, September 23. Released on Friday, September 22, The Great Indian Family earned Rs 1.40 crore on its opening day. With this, the film’s total collection stands at Rs Rs 3.20 crore.
It should be noted that The Great Indian Family is still facing competition from Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan at the box office. The Atlee directorial earned Rs 75 lakh on its third Saturday and has now crossed Rs 500 crore mark at the domestic box office.
The Great Indian Family makers Vicky Kaushal’s return to the screen after Zara Hatke Zara Bachke. Released in June this year, the film was widely loved by all and emerged as a box office hit. The Laxman Utekar directorial had recorded an opening day collection of Rs. 5.49 crore, a mark which has still not been reached by The Great Indian Family.
The Great Indian Family revolves around the life of Ved Vyas Tripathi aka Bhajan Kumar, played by Vicky Kaushal. He comes from an orthodox Hindu family who falls in love with a Sikh girl, played by Manushi Chhillar. However, things change after it is discovered that Bhajan Kumar is not a Hindu but a Muslim by birth.
Showsha’s review of The Great Indian Family reads, “A fairly inoffensive, pleasantly entertaining small-town family drama, The Great Indian Family primarily succeeds because of some realistic dialogues and the natural performance of a strong ensemble. Even though it isn’t quite thrilling and the movie won’t take you by surprise, there is enough charm and swagger in this bubbly concoction to keep you hooked. There is indeed something to be said about a Bollywood film that lays so much in store by its script (which is a bit of a letdown), its relatable setting, and its believable characters. The creative choices the director makes reflect amply in the outcome.”
