Ayushmann Khurrana starrer ‘Doctor G’ which has been released today is not attracting the kind of buzz that his movies usually do.
So there are concerns about whether the movie will rule or survive at the box office.
Plot
Directed by Anubhuti Kashyap, ‘Doctor G’ is the story of an aspiring orthopedic surgeon, played by Ayushmann Khurrana who ends up as a gynecologist.
Doctor G features a doctor who is a small-town guy and stuck in a situation most people don’t want to talk about. He has his own hesitations but later embraces his flaws.

Box office collection
The social comedy has pre-sold tickets worth only Rs 50 lakh. According to Indian media outlet, the movie has sold only 19,000 tickets at the three leading cinema chains in the country ahead of its debut today, which translates to around Rs 50 lakh in revenue.
The number might increase to around Rs 70 lakh to Rs 80 lakh, but that still isn’t good enough by Ayushmann’s standards.
Social media and response
As per social media, Doctor G is a fun film that addresses issues that matter with all the seriousness that they deserve.
The blend of humour and socially inflected drama has an easy flow to it thanks principally to the quality of the writing and the performances by a cast clued in fully to the unusual tonalities of the film.
