The film has garnered more than Rs 7 crore gross collection at the Indian box office in its first week.

While many consider using condoms taboo, the film beautifully depicts its importance in a light-hearted way. More so, ‘Kahani RubberBand Ki’ has also managed to create awareness about sex education.

The film has successfully retained screens in its second week, and Sarika Sanjot is extremely happy with the response from the audience.
“We made the film keeping in mind the thoughts everyone has about condom use. It was a sensitive topic to touch on, and I am happy that we have given a wonderful film to our viewers”, she added. Released by PVR Cinemas in India, the director is optimistic about bringing more films that deal with other sensitive issues.
Along with taking the director’s seat, Sarika even took charge of the film’s production. The film was produced under her banner Moon House Productions on October 14 and is doing pretty well in cinemas.
