Bhool Chook Maaf, starring Rajkummar Rao, is all set to release in cinemas on Friday, May 23, 2025. The film is produced by Maddock Films in association with Amazon MGM Studios, a combination known for delivering successful movies. Previous hits from Maddock Films include Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, Munjya, Stree 2, and Chhava.
Advance Booking Update
According to trade reports, Bhool Chook Maaf has already sold 17,000 tickets in advance bookings for Day One. The film is expected to sell up to 40,000 tickets before its release.
Early trend analysis suggests that the film might earn around ₹6 crore on its opening day. While this is a decent start, it is not as high as Maddock’s earlier film Chhava, which collected ₹31 crore on its first day. Another major hit, Stree 2, had earned a massive ₹60.3 crore on its opening day.

About the Film
Bhool Chook Maaf had its release date changed multiple times, but it is now confirmed to hit theatres on May 23. The film features Rajkummar Rao in the lead role alongside Wamiqa Gabbi and Seema Pahwa. The movie is directed by Karan Sharma.
The story revolves around Ranjan, played by Rajkummar Rao, who wants to marry Titli Mishra, played by Wamiqa Gabbi. To impress her and her family, Ranjan goes as far as securing a government job. But things take a strange turn when he gets trapped in a time loop.
Ranjan wakes up every day to relive his haldi ceremony, unable to move forward in time. This time-loop concept gives the film a unique twist, somewhat similar to earlier Bollywood movies like Baar Baar Dekho and Loop Lapeta.
Streaming Release on Prime Video
After its theatrical run, Bhool Chook Maaf will be available for streaming on Prime Video, likely two weeks after its release in cinemas. This short gap between theatrical and OTT release is becoming more common in the industry and allows fans to enjoy the film at home shortly after its big-screen debut.
What to Expect from Bhool Chook Maaf
The film combines romance, comedy, and a science fiction twist, making it different from typical Bollywood romantic dramas. With a strong cast, creative storytelling, and Maddock Films’ reputation, expectations are high.
