Bollywood actor, Ayushmann Khurrana is known to be a star who loves to experiment with his roles onscreen. And well, his latest offering titled as Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan echoes the same sentiments. This film is special as it sees the actor romancing a man. Starring Jitendra Kumar opposite Ayushmann, the film is a gay love story. The movie had made it to the theatres on Friday (February 21) and minted a good amount of Rs 9.55 crore at the ticket window. With a decent collection on Day 1, the queer saga was expected to earn more on Day 2 (Saturday), and yes it did. As SMSZ earned Rs 11 crore at the box office on Day 2.

With this, the total collection of the movie now stands at Rs 20.63 crore. Well, frankly Ayushmann has this Midas touch at the box office, but SMZS has not ringed in a huge sum as expected. One of the main reasons for a decent start can be the LGBTQ+ tale of the film which not everyone would invest their money in.
