"ZHZB (Zara Hatke Zara Bachke) should dominate the marketplace in Week 2 until the much-awaited biggie Adipurush arrives on 16 June," he stated in his week 2 prediction. "The weekend business should resume its upward trajectory, and it should cross the Rs 50 crore benchmark by Sunday night," he added.

"The numbers of ZHZB are certain to instil hope and confidence in makers of *mid-range films* to think of theatrical release, rather than direct-to-digital," Taran added. "It also proves that well-made films that are desi at heart or rooted in culture will never go out of fashion in India," he said, adding that the film "should act as an eye-opener/case study for those makers / Studios who target films for Bandra to Versova audience."

The film is helmed by Laxman Utekar of Mimi fame. Vicky revealed after the film's release that he has adopted his co-star Sara's behaviours. In a media interaction, he said: "Wherever I go today, I always say Namaste Darshakon, and if I continue promoting this film like this for another five days, I will also start saying 'Knock Knock' ."

"But she is one of the most pure individuals I have ever met; she is wonderful, and the way she relates with people is incredibly genuine and authentic, and it shows on the big screen as well. Whether it's Somya or another of her characters, I know Sara will always be liked and loved by the audience because the truth in her eyes says a lot about her," Vicky added.
