Actors Kareena Kapoor Khan, Tabu and Kriti Sanon starrer Crew released in theatres on Friday. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Crew has managed to mint Rs 8.75 crore on the opening day. The film had an overall 26.34 percent Hindi occupancy on Friday. Crew is helmed by Rajesh Krishnan.
Crew released just a day after Aadujeevitham and clashed with Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire King at the box office. Starring Prithviraj Sukumaran, Aadujeevitham has minted Rs 15 crore in two days. Crew is, however, facing tough competition from Godzilla X Kong. The film has collected Rs 13.80 crore on the opening day.
Crew is a notable film in mainstream Hindi cinema as the film does not have any male stars in its main cast. Kapil Sharma and Diljit Dosanjh are playing supporting roles in the film. The film is the third biggest opener of the year in Hindi cinema after Fighter and Shaitaan. Fighter opened with Rs 24.6 crore and Shaitaan opened with Rs 15.21 crore. The film has overtaken Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon’s Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, which opened with Rs 7.02 crore.
