The audience may not have like the movie much but are stunned by Rani Mukherji's brilliant histrionics. LAAGA CHUNARI MEIN DAAG also marks the first full-fledged commercial role by Konkona and she is equal to the task. In his extended cameo, Abhishek also leaves a mark, as does Kunal Kapoor.
The movie which opened to a poor first day response (around 25 percent), saw a pick-up on 'Eid' day (around 50-60 percent), specially at the multiplexes, as it got overflow from BHOOL BHULAIYAA. The makers and distributors of the movie are still hopeful of a recovery.
As per Gaurav Pal of Yash Raj P P Associates, there are about 60 prints of the movie in the second largest territory of India, Delhi-U.P., though there was demand for more from the exhibitors.
