The horror-comedy got an extended weekend following its release on Thursday, 11 March, the day of Maha Shivratri when it collected Rs 3.06 crore. According to Bollywood Hungama, the movie also released in Australia and has collected Rs. 2.40 lacs across 18 screens. In New Zealand, where it was released on 10 screens, it made Rs. 1.56 lacs. Directed by Hardik Mehta, Roohi saw RajKummar and Janhavi team for the first time on-screen. It was the first major Hindi film to release theatrically after the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting allowed cinema halls across the country to operate at full capacity from February with adherence to COVID-19 safety protocols. Meanwhile, Janhvi will next be seen in Good Luck Jerry, directed by Siddhartha Sengupta and Bombay Girl, helmed by Ssanjay Tripaathi. Rajkummar will next star in Badhaai Do, alongside Bhumi Pednekar.
