He also added that the film's business is expected to show growth on Saturday and Sunday. "#ShubhMangalSaavdhan Fri 2.71 cr. India biz... Biz should witness an upward trend on Sat and Sun," tweeted Mr Adarsh. Shubh Mangal Saavdhan deals with the subject of sexual disorder.

In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee wrote that "Shubh Mangal Saavdhan is worthy of applause for the way it breaks the patriarchal notions of masculinity that have been perpetuated ad infinitum by the popular strain of Indian cinema that has been built around a mard who feels no dard. Here the hero's anguish and bewilderment are real and his frailties, physical and emotional, aren't blamed upon anybody else but himself. It is he who's got to sort it out in the mind and the body, with, of course, a great deal of help from the woman in his life."

"Shubh Mangal Saavdhan, breezy enough at its core not to be bogged down by the weight of its daring and untested pivotal plot point, is never less than entertaining," Mr Chatterjee added.

Shubh Mangal Saavdhan is Ayushmann and Bhumi Pednekar's second film together after 2015 movie Dum Laga Ke Haisha.

The film released at the theatres with Baadshaho, starring Ajay Devgn, Ileana D'Cruz, Emraan Hashmi, Vidyut Jammwal, Esha Gupta and Sanjay Mishra.
