Munjya Box Office: On opening day, the horror-comedy starring Abhay Verma and Sharvari has sprung a surprise collecting over Rs 4 crore
Still from Munjya
Abhay Verma, Sharvari Wagh and Mona Singh-starrer horror-comedy 'Munjya' hit the theatres on Friday. The film which does not have a major star cast surprised all with its box office performance on day 1. Coming from the horror-comedy universe of 'Stree' and 'Bhediya', Munjya has been directed by debutant Aditya Sarpotdar. The film earned Rs 4.21 crore at the box office in India on opening day. This is a great sign considering that the film does not have an A-list cast and had very limited pre-release promotion.

He wrote on X, "WHEN NUMBERS DO THE TALKING…
⭐️ No stars to magnetise audiences

Clearly, the CGI ‘actor’ has opened BIGGER than most star-studded films."

'Munjya' promises to be a groundbreaking film, blending unexpected twists with a heavy dose of humor. Abhay, who leads the film, expressed his passion for innovative projects, stating, "Creating something which has never been done before is always something I’ve been inclined towards. Munjya is a one-of-a-kind cinematic experience that has unexpected twists with a heavy dose of humour. Leading a love story like such feels like a dream coming to life."
Reflecting on his excitement and the project's uniqueness, Abhay shared, "To be a part of something that hasn’t happened before in Bollywood itself makes it special for me. You always want to be a part of love stories in Bollywood and I’m extremely grateful to Lord Ganesha for a love story this wicked yet loving!"
Talking about the film Dinesh Vijan said, "At the heart of it, this is Munjya's love story and it's about his first love - Munni. However, he doesn't get her! If you've ever had an obsessive lover or obsessed over anybody, you will understand his POV. If not his, Munni's for sure he jokingly adds. Munjya is technologically the most advanced CGI actor out there in India and we are very proud of it. It definitely is going to be a spectacle for children, gen next, and the whole family."
