Sushant Singh Rajput and Shraddha Kapoor's Chhichhore has opened on a good note at the box office. The film made a decent business of Rs 7.32 crore, which is fairly well for this slice-of-film, directed by Nitesh Tiwari. The dose of friendship has been loved by the cinegoers.
Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh has also termed Chhichhore as a "delightful" watch. He said that the positive word of mouth has helped in the film's first-day earning. The trade pundit is sure that this would help in an increase in the footfalls. This is what he wrote: "#Chhichhore goes from strength to strength on Day 1... Witnessed a big turnaround in evening and night shows... Word of mouth has come into play, which will translate into solid growth on Day 2 and 3... Weekend biz is sure to spring a big surprise...
