'Thank You For Coming' is a female-centric film starring Bhumi Pednekar, Shehnaaz Gill, Kusha Kapila, Dolly Singh and Shibani Bedi. It is directed by Karan Boolani.
'Thank You For Coming' starring Bhumi Pednekar, Kusha Kapila, Shehnaaz Gill, Shibani Bedi, Dolly Singh and Anil Kapoor hit the theatres on Friday, October 6. The movie is directed by Rhea Kapoor's husband Karan Boolani. It had a dull start on day 1 at the box office.
As per Sacnilk.com, the film made a collection of Rs 80 lakh nett in India on its first day, as per early estimates. It witnessed a 16.54% Hindi occupancy. The movie clashed with Akshay Kumar starrer 'Mission Raniganj' which also had a slow start but compared to the Bhumi starrer it earned well on day 1.
As per news agency ANI, on her role, Bhumi said, "The fact that I have been compared to all-time acting greats like Carole Lombard and Goldie Hawn by the media for my performance in Thank You For Coming is a hugely gratifying validation that will forever be special for me. I can't believe that people are saying that I have delivered a performance of a lifetime. I'm still pinching myself reading all the love coming my way and I'm very happy about it."
She added, "As an actor, I have only wanted to swim against the tide. The greater the challenge, the harder the task at hand, and the more the opportunity to break the norm, this kind of environment is my thriving spot. I'm hugely grateful to all the filmmakers who have seen me to be an actor who will always try and go that extra mile for their vision."
'Thank You For Coming' is produced by Rhea Kapoor along with Ekta Kapoor and Shobha Kapoor under Balaji Motion Pictures. It is the only Hindi feature film selected for a gala world premiere at the 46th Toronto International Film Festival 2023 on September 15, 2023, at Roy Thomson Hall. It also received a standing ovation from the audience.
