Meri Pyaari Bindu starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Parineeti Chopra released on May 12 amid huge expectations. However, the film failed at the box-office and now, actor Ayushmann says that he personally received a mixed response to the film. He further added that he believes that somehow Baahubali 2: The Conclusion ate up the business of his film.

Asked about his reaction to the box office performance of "Meri Pyaari Bindu", which released in May, Ayushmann told reporters here on Wednesday: "I received mixed reactions at a personal level like from my family and friends. Some people loved the film and some did not like it at all."

"But I think somehow 'Baahubali 2: The Conclusion' ate up the business of the film. May be, it would have earned more money had 'Baahubali 2: The Conclusion' not been in theatres at that time.""Baahubali 2: The Conclusion", which released on April 28, is the highest grossing film in India. 

Ayushmann will next be seen in Bareilly ki Barfi, which is a romantic comedy. Ayushmann will be sharing the screen space with Kirti Sanon for the first time. It will be interesting for movie buffs to watch two charming actors coming together to woo them. The movie is slated to release on August 18. The project, helmed by filmmaker Nitesh Tiwari’s wife Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, also stars Rajkummar Rao in a pivotal role.
