WATCH: HUMSHAKALS IS UTTERLY TORTUROUS

Humshakals collections had earlier picked on Saturday, totalling Rs 25.09 crore in two days. Considering the fact that there are no other Bollywood releases this week, Humshakals is likely to make a decent earning at the box office in the coming days.

Salman Khan-starrer Jai Ho is the biggest opener with Rs 17 crore, while Alia Bhatt-Arjun Kapoor-starrer Two States earned Rs 38.06 crore on day one.
