'Ulajh' disappoints at box office; earns ₹6.45cr in first week
The recently released spy thriller Ulajh, starring Janhvi Kapoor, has had a lackluster first week at the box office, raking in a total of ₹6.45 crore. Directed by National Award-winning filmmaker Sudhanshu Saria, the film also features Gulshan Devaiah, Roshan Mathew, Rajesh Tailang, and Meiyan Chang in pivotal roles. Despite its star-studded cast, Ulajh received mixed reviews and failed to impress audiences.
'Ulajh' records second lowest opening for Kapoor
Ulajh opened with a disappointing collection of ₹1.15 crore, marking Kapoor's second-lowest opening after Mili, which had an opening collection of ₹40 lakh. However, the film showed some resilience over the weekend, matching collections with its rival release Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha, and managed to rake in over ₹4.75 crore.
'Ulajh' expected to surpass 'Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha'
Despite both Ulajh and Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha heading toward a disappointing end at the box office, it is expected that Ulajh will surpass its competitor by the end of its theatrical run. While Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha, directed by Neeraj Pandey, remained a no-show on weekdays, Ulajh managed to maintain some traction.
'Ulajh' likely to finish theatrical run under ₹12 crore
With no major releases scheduled for this weekend, both Ulajh and Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha are expected to continue their run until August 15. Current projections suggest that Ulajh is likely to finish its theatrical run under ₹12 crore.
'Ulajh' explores personal and professional entanglements of its protagonist
Ulajh tells the story of Suhana Bhatia (Kapoor), an Indian Foreign Services Officer who becomes Deputy High Commissioner of the High Commission of India in London. After becoming romantically involved with a man who introduces himself as Nakul (Devaiah), a Michelin-starred chef, her personal and professional lives become entwined in unexpected ways. The film is currently playing in theaters.
