Sushant Singh Rajput starrer Chhichhore has begun to work its magic in cinemas across the country.

After MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, this ensemble drama became the highest opening day grosser for Sushant at Rs 7.32 crores on Friday.

Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the film’ s business on social media.

Chhichhore is expected to do better on the weekend, and trade analysts are vouching for audiences word of mouth to play out well for the film.
