According to trade tracker Sacnilk, Dhadak 2 opened at the box office with Rs 3.5 crore and earned Rs 3.75 crore on Day 2. This takes the total collection of the Karan Johar production to Rs 7.25 crore.
On Saturday, Dhadak 2 recorded an overall Hindi occupancy of 25.81%. Morning shows saw 11.73% occupancy, afternoon shows registered 25.61%, and evening shows rose to 29.00%. The highest footfall was during the night shows, which reported an occupancy of 36.88%.
The Indian Express film critic Shubhra Gupta gave Triptii Dimri and Siddhant Chaturvedi’s film 2.5 stars. She wrote in her Dhadak 2 review, “After Saiyaara, the passion in Triptii Dimri and Siddhant Chaturvedi’s feels performative. The film is clearly on the right side of many of the hot button issues we need to be pressing: casteism, classism, feminism, gender identities.”
Meanwhile, Saiyaara continues its strong box office run in its third week and is on track to cross the Rs 300 crore mark by Sunday. Also performing steadily is the animated mythological film Mahavtar Narasimha, which is faring well in its second week.
