Mumbai, May 29 - Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor-starrer sports romantic drama Mr and Mrs Mahi is coming to woo the audience in the scorching heat on May 31st. The movie, directed by Sharan Sharma, pairs Rajkummar and Janhvi for the first time and it seems this jodi will bring some good news at the box office. ## Produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions, Mr and Mrs Mahi is set for a good opening at the box office, thanks to Cinema Lovers Day on which the ticket prices have been kept at just Rs. 99/ticket. The benefit of the discounted offer is already being seen in advance sales of the movie which is one of the best in the last two months. ## Mr & Mrs Mahi has sold over 150K tickets at the three national chains (PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis) and with few hours still left for the release, the pre-sales are heading towards finishing around 200K tickets at national chains which is fantastic for a mid-range film. ## In a normal scenario, the pre-sales of Mr and Mrs Mahi could have guaranteed a double-digit opening but the fact that the discounted prices are the main reason behind it, the double-digit start at the domestic box office may not be a reality. ## Recently, Yami Gautam-fronted Article 370 released amid such a scenario and took the opening of approximately 6 crores net, and Mr and Mrs Mahi, which is having a better trend in the pre-sales, is very much in the race to start somewhere between 6-7 crores net which will be a good start, against what could have with regular prices. ## The movie is censored with a clean 'U' certificate with an approved runtime of 2 hours and 19 minutes. As per reports, it is expected to be released on 1000 screens and it will mainly target the multiplex audience.## Stay tuned...
