Happy Bhag Jayegi has gone from strength to strength and has ended its third week on a high as well. So far, the film has collected 28.02 crore and that is a good number considering the fact it has started with an opening day number of 2.32 crore.
To do more than 10 times the business of its opening day and still counting is something rare in current times. In fact after Neerja (another female oriented story) this Eros and Aanand L. Rai film is another true-blue word of mouth flick of 2016.

For Diana Penty, the film’s success has come as a shot in the arm as she was largely missing in acting since Cocktail, which was a successful venture. Also, director Mudassar Aziz too has got his due after an ad-hoc start with Dulha Mil Gaya which had taken ages to be completed.

Abhay Deol too is back in the scheme of things and can revamp his career. Jimmy Sheirgill has demonstrated yet again that in an ensemble affair, he is a great value add. As for Ali Fazal, he would be happy to be a part of a successful flick.
*Estimates. Final numbers awaited
