Amid
all
the
anticipation,
yesterday
(February
21,
2020),
Ayushmann
Khurrana's
Shubh
Mangal
Zyada
Saavdhan
and
Vicky
Kaushal's
Bhoot
Part
One:
The
Haunted
Ship
hit
the
theatres.
And
we
are
here
with
the
expected
box
office
collection
reports
of
both
the
films.
According
to
sub-distributor
Rahul
Verma,
Shubh
Mangal
Zyada
Saavdhan
would
have
earned
approximately
Rs
9
crores,
while
Bhoot
Part
One:
The
Haunted
Ship
would
have
raked
in
approximately
Rs
4.5
crores.
(We
will
update
the
official
collection
soon.)
On
a
related
note,
both
films
have
received
mixed
response
from
the
critics.
But
comparatively,
Shubh
Mangal
Zyada
Saavdhan
is
expected
to
do
better
at
the
box
office
than
Bhoot
Part
One:
The
Haunted
Ship
in
the
longer
run
owing
to
its
lead
casts
and
comedy
genre.
Trade
analyst
Taran
Adarsh
showered
praises
on
SMZS
and
gave
a
rating
of
three
and
half
stars.
He
wrote,
"#ShubhMangalZyadaSaavdhan:
BOLD.
Rating:
***½.
Brave.
Gutsy.
Fearless.
Dares
to
address
Homophobia...
Fun,
humour,
emotions,
#SMZS
has
it
all...
Kudos
Mr
Content
#AyushmannKhurrana
for
a
courageous
decision,
#JitendraKumar,
#Gajraj,
#Neena
excel.
#SMZSReview."
However,
he
was
left
all
disappointed
after
watching
Vicky
Kaushal's
Bhoot.
The
trade
analyst
gave
it
one
and
half
stars
and
wrote,
"#Bhoot:
DULL.
Fails
to
live
up
to
its
title...
Weak
writing...
Lethargic
pace...
Few
scares...
Exhausting
second
half...
Unconvincing
backstory...
#VickyKaushal
is
the
only
plus
here.
