The film earned ₹7 crore on day one and ₹9.5 crore on day two. On day three, it collected 11.25 crore nett in India as per early estimates. So far, the film has collected ₹27.75 crore in India. Bhool Chuk Maaf had an overall 30.01% Hindi occupancy on Sunday.

Bhool Chuk Maaf has been witnessing a decent performance, though it opened in theatres to low numbers. Rajkummar's last film, Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video had earned only ₹6.4 crore on day three, as per Sacnilk.com. However, it lagged much behind Rajkummar's blockbuster Stree 2, which minted ₹43.85 on day three, according to Sacnilk.com. Both films released in theatres last year. But it must be noted that the time loop comedy has already crossed the lifetime earnings of Kangana Ranaut's Emergency, which earned ₹19 crore upon release earlier this year.

Bhool Chuk Maaf HT review

The Hindustan Times review of the film read, "Rajkummar needs to snap out of his small town fascination, and fast. Wamiqa is a relatively fresh face, and grasps the ‘papa ki pari’ hook well. Sanjay Mishra and Raghubeer Yadav fare well. Tanishk Baghchi’s music is okay when viewed in context on screen, but doesn’t stand out. Overall, Bhool Chuk Maaf, a time-loop comedy, ends up stuck in a loop of its own clichés. The only thing harder to escape than a time loop is Rajkummar’s contract with small-town scripts. It tries to be a comedy, flirts with a social message, and ends up being the cinematic equivalent of a WhatsApp forward — familiar, repetitive, and mildly amusing at best."
