Dream Girl opens on a good note at the box-office

Starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Nushrat Bharucha in lead roles, Dream Girl was one of the most-awaited movies on 2019. It is Khurrana’s first film after he recently won the prestigious National Film Award for his riveting performance in the Sriram Raghavan crime thriller Andhadhun (2018).

Dream Girl hit the theatres on 13th September, and took a good start at the domestic box-office in India. According to a trade portal, the romantic drama witnessed an occupancy of around 30% in its morning shows, which is the biggest start ever for an Ayushmann Khurrana starrer. His film Badhaai Ho, which hit screens in 2018, had also garnered the similar response, but it entered theatres on a holiday.


If reports are to be believed, the morning business of Dream Girl is said to be better than the Sushant Singh Rajput and Shraddha Kapoor starrer Chhichhore (2019), which rolled into theatres last week. The Nitesh Tiwari directorial hit the right chord with the audience and has been performing exceptionally well since its release.

Dream Girl is also expected to improve its business over the weekend. The film has received excellent reviews from critics and the word of mouth is also exceptional. Music of the film has turned out to be chartbuster, which is working in its favour.

Produced by Ekta Kapoor, Dream Girl marks the directorial debut of writer Raaj Shaandilyaa. Besides Ayushmann Khurrana and Nushrat Bharucha, the movie also features Manjot Singh, Annu Kapoor, Vijay Raaz and Abhishek Banerjee in important roles.
