‘Crew’, starring Tabu, Kareena Kapoor, and Kriti Sanon, has made an impressive debut at the box office, raking in more than Rs 8.75 crore on its first day of release in Bharat. This remarkable figure shows women-centric movies can have the biggest opening days in present time.
The heist comedy, featuring a star-studded cast including Tabu and Kareena Kapoor sharing the screen, generated significant buzz prior to its release, contributing to its stellar opening numbers. Despite facing competition from other releases like ‘Godzilla X Kong’ and ‘The Goat Life’, ‘Crew’ is expected to gain momentum over the weekend, buoyed by positive word-of-mouth.
Notably, ‘Crew’ has secured its place among the top openers of 2024, trailing only behind films like ‘Fighter’ and ‘Shaitaan’.
Critics have praised the film for its refreshing departure from intense political dramas, describing it as a light-hearted and entertaining masala entertainer. The movie, helmed by director Rajesh Krishnan, features a talented ensemble cast including Diljit Dosanjh, Saswata Chatterjee, and Rajesh Sharma, with Kapil Sharma making a special appearance.
In line with positive audience reception, ‘Crew’ promises to deliver ample laughs with its impeccable comic timing, offering a delightful cinematic experience reminiscent of the recent hit ‘Madgaon Express’.
