If so, then why not? When it comes to the possibility that ‘Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar’ would surpass the 150 crore mark and surpass ‘Saaho’, Shraddha Kapoor will be asking herself that question. The movie, which currently has 146.25 crores in box office receipts, has long already surpassed the lifetime total of her next-best Stree (130 crores), becoming her fourth century at the box office.
But crossing ‘Saaho’ will be difficult for Shraddha's romantic comedy because fierce competition is on the horizon in the form of this Friday's release of ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’. As it stands, the movie was playing at relatively few theatres and was virtually finished with its run. Now that Salman Khan's movie is coming out this Friday, it will hardly be able to find screen time. Therefore, ‘Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar's’ lifetime gross of 148–149 crores may end up being its best case scenario.

It's interesting to note that each of Shraddha Kapoor's Top-3 films has made around 150 crores, and she will likely be expecting to surpass all of that with ‘Stree 2’, her upcoming blockbuster. On 31 August 2024, the horror comedy will be released. With more than a year to go until then, they can only hope that the post-pandemic market has improved and that things have returned to normal in terms of the theatrical industry.
Awaiting the final numbers!
