Mumbai: Shazia Iqbal’s directorial debut, Dhadak 2, starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri, released in theatres on August 1 after facing multiple delays. After having a slow start at the box office, has Dhadak 2 managed to show growth on its second day of release? As per the latest update the film is yet to cross the ₹10 crore mark.
“Dhadak 2 witnesses marginal 10.96% growth on Saturday, despite ticket offers… The holdover titles – #MahavatarNarsimha and #Saiyaara – continue to pose tough competition, especially the former, which remains unstoppable”, wrote Taran Adarsh on X.
Dhadak 2 is Karan Johar’s production is completely different from the first film. Not only is the story in Dhadak 2 deeper, but the new pairing of Tripti Dimri and Siddhant Chaturvedi brings a different freshness. The film touches upon issues like wounds of love, complexities in relationships and class divide in a very subtle way. Famous film critic, Taran Adarsh called the movie Dhadak 2 “Sharp writing… Captivating, emotionally-charged second half… Solid performances… #Dhadak2 works for the most part… But the love story lacks the soul-stirring soundtrack that elevated the first part”.
Dhadak 2 is facing stiff competition at the box office from another new release (and sequel)- Ajay Devgn’s Son of Sardaar 2. The comedy saga made twice as more as Dhadak 2 on its second day with ₹7.5 crore. Son of Sardaar 2’s overall collection now stands at ₹14.5 crore.
Meanwhile, Saiyaara, now in its third week, is still going strong. The film is set to cross the ₹300 crore mark by Sunday.
