Valid observation: ₹ 💯 cr is *not* the yardstick to gauge the success of a film... However, it should be celebrated when mid-sized films like #SKTKS, #Raazi, #Stree, #BadhaaiHo, #Uri, #KabirSingh and #Chhichhore hit century... Content is king and audiences are king makers!

`Chhichhore` is full of nostalgia and plays on the themes of friendship and college life. The film revolves around Anni (played by Sushant) and his college buddies. It showcases how their lives undergo major changes after they all graduate.
One part of the film shows the friends in their college and how they strive to win a competition and the second part features them all grown up.
The gang, which gets separated after college, reunites years later in a hospital when one of their friends' child meets with an accident. Read the film's review here.
