While Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Fawad Khan, took a good opening thanks to the controversy surrounding the film. Though the trailers were lacking the buzz, the music and the controversy of featuring a Pakistani actor in the romantic drama had created publicity which was way beyond the expectations and created some fireworks at the box office bringing the box office collections to a sensational 112.48 crore crores against a budget of Rs 70 crore.
