As per the Venky Box Office, the film in nearly 7 weeks at the box office has earned US $3,584,093 (RRs 29.92 crore), and this is despite the film facing competition from English and Hindi films like Maidaan, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Dune 2, Kung Fu Panda 4, Money Man, and Civil War.

Explaining the premise of the film, Kareena Kapoor Khan shared that Crew is a comedy-heist drama on the lines of Ocean’s 11 and Ocean’s 8. The film revolves around the lives of three air hostesses working for a bankrupt airline and how they team up together to save the lives and earnings of all employees of the company.
