Despite Negative Reviews, Kabir Singh Becomes Shahid's 1st Solo Hit To Enter Rs 100 Crore Club!
The collections signify that the theatres are all booked and even on weekdays the footfall in theaters is massive. Starring Shahid Kapoor and Kiara Advani the film is the remake of the popular Telugu hit film Arjun Reddy.
There are endless reviews, Facebook posts and Tweets that claim that Shahid Kapoor's Kabir Singh is a problematic film. Listing down several scenes that are downright 'sexist' and 'violent', the film has sparked several debates and discussions online.
But does it mean that no one's watching the film? Well, you're clearly mistaken. After Vicky Kaushal's Uri, Shahid's Kabir Singh has turned out to be one of the biggest blockbusters of the year! The collections signify that the theatres are all booked and even on weekdays, the footfall in theaters is massive.
Not just the domestic collections but the international collections of the film too hints that the film is a big hit.
