Trade analyst Taran Adarsh posted the film’s box office figures on Twitter. He wrote, “#KabirSingh is a lottery… Continues to surprise with solid trending on [third] Mon… Will cross *lifetime biz* of #Simmba today [Tue]… Inches closer to #Uri… Fri 5.40 cr, Sat 7.51 cr, Sun 9.61 cr, Mon 4.25 cr. Total: ₹ 239.97 cr. India biz.”

Kiara Advani, Arjan Bajwa, Suresh Oberoi, Kamini Kaushal, Adil Hussain, Nikita Dutta among others play pivotal roles in Kabir Singh. The film is already the second biggest Bollywood film at the box office this year.

While speaking with Film Companion, Sandeep Reddy Vanga had recently lambasted critics of his film, saying, “When you question people’s belief system, they get angry. I think that’s what happened. It is not even a healthy criticism. It’s very pseudo. When you are deeply in love, deeply connected with the woman, there is a lot of honesty in it. If you don’t have that physical demonstration, if you don’t have the liberty of slapping each other, then I don’t see anything there.”

Shahid Kapoor for Jersey remake?

After success of Kabir Singh, which was an official remake of Telugu film Arjun Reddy, rumours suggest that Shahid Kapoor will be roped in to play the lead in the Hindi remake of Telugu film Jersey.

Kabir Singh to become highest grossing film of 2019?

"#KabirSingh has toppled #Simmba lifetime collection today (3rd Tuesday). Film will surpass #UriTheSurgicalStrike collection this week to emerge Highest Grossing film of 2019," trade analyst Sumit Kadel wrote on Twitter.

Kabir Singh may have received the love of the audience, but it got mixed reviews.

The Indian Express critic Shubhra Gupta gave the film one and a half star. In the review, she said “Deverakonda’s undeniable charisma helps his Arjun get past rank bad behavior, but finally he gets to a point where he has to dial back. There’s a redemptive arc, and we are given that as a take-away, and the possibility of a turning-over-a-new-life, which is a great way to end a film."

She added, "Kapoor takes the movie and tries to run with it. But he has been a hero at the centre-stage for too long; his responses are too practiced, too familiar. He feels too old for this role, and his dissolution never feels as sharply realized as the one he managed so superbly in Udta Punjab.”
