Every Friday, the Indian film industry brings forth new films to entertain the masses. Sometimes, those movies work, while other times, they don’t. This Friday 4 movies released which were all from different genres, including Rangeela Raja, Fraud Saiyaan, Bombairiya and Why Cheat India. Amongst them, Why Cheat India starring Emraan Hashmi had become the talk of the town since the time the trailer was released. Helmed by Soumik Sen, the movie had made headlines when its name was changed. 

The movie has released today and the box office figures are in. Emraan Hashmi who was seen playing a different role in this movie seemed to be the only recognisable face among the cast. As per the box office collection for day 1 of Why Cheat India, Emraan’s movie struggled to find an audience and got a dull opening with just 5% occupancy. This has been lower than any of Emraan Hashmi’s previous films.

The trailer of Why Cheat India surely left the audience intrigued due to the unique storyline.
