Half Girlfriend vs Hindi Medium
Two big Bollywood films released this Friday – Half Girlfriend and Hindi Medium. Half Girlfriend, directed by Mohit Suri, pairs Arjun Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor for the first time. It is the cinematic adaptation of Chetan Bhagat's novel of the same name. Chetan is believed to have a Midas touch; from 3 Idiots to 2 States, films based on his books always strike gold at the box office.
On the other hand, Hindi Medium has stellar actor Irrfan. The film also marks the Bollywood debut of Pakistani actor Saba Qamar. The trailer of Hindi Medium was well-received for the performances and rib-roaring laughter.
While Mohit Suri’s Half Girlfriend earned Rs 10.27 crore on day one, Saket Choudhary’s Hindi Medium made a meagre opening collection of Rs 2.81 crore.
