'Badhaai Ho' tells about the story of a young married man who is embarrassed by his parents' sex life.
The film hit the screens on October 18 and faced box office clash with Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra's 'Namaste England'. To everyone's surprise, Arjun and Parineeti's film played second fiddle to the Ayushmann starrer.
On the other hand, 'Raazi' starred Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal in lead roles and is directed by Meghna Gulzar. It is an adaptation of Harinder Sikka’s novel 'Calling Sehmat', about an Indian spy married to a Pakistani military officer during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. The film hit the screens on May 11, 2018.
