NEW DELHI: Ayushmann Khurrana and Shefali Shah's latest release 'Doctor G', also starring Rakul Preet Singh, showed massive growth on its second day in theatres and collected around Rs 5.22 crore nett on Saturday (October 15). With this, the film total collection stands at 9.09 crore, which is considered as a strong number for post-pandemic releases.

According to a report on Boxofficeindia.com, the film grew by 45-50 per cent with collections of Rs. 5-5.25 crore nett on Saturday. The report states that it continues to perform best in Delhi-NCR and East Punjab but had less growth in the likes of Gujarat.

As per trade pundit Taran Adarsh, the Ayushmann Khuarran-Shefali Shah and Rakul Preet-starrer campus comedy minted Rs 3.87 crore at the Box Office on its opening day. This is considered a fair start for the film, considering the dismal run of other big films on the ticket window. The film had a box-office clash with Parineeti Chopra and Harrdy Sandhu's espionage drama, 'Code Name Tiranga', which failed to make an impression.
