Anushka Sharma and Varun Dhawan-starrer Sui Dhaaga had been dominating the box office since its release last Friday.

Sui Dhaaga, which earned Rs 11.75 crore on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, fell flat on Wednesday earning only Rs 3.80 crore.
“#SuiDhaaga registers 54.22% decline on Day 6 [vis-à-vis Day 1]... Drop in biz was imminent, since Day 5 was a national holiday... Should collect ₹ 62.5 cr in Week 1...

This year has already seen multiple successful Bollywood movies. From small releases that turned out to be surprise hits to some of the most awaited movies, Bollywood has delivered multiple memorable movies so far. Sui Dhaaga is yet another movie to be added to the list.
Sui Dhaaga has been praised by critics and audience alike for its simplicity and earnestness. Anushka Sharma and Varun Dhawan who play Mamta and Mauji have been praised for their performances. Sui Dhaaga also features a stellar supporting cast including Raghubir Yadav, Namit Das, Yamini Das and Abha Parmar.
Sui Dhaaga revolves around the lives of Mauji and Mamta who set out to start their own tailoring business. However, the gullible couple face multiple challenges including people who are out to hoodwink them.
