Dhadak 2 Box Office Day 1: Siddhant-Triptii Starrer Opens To Modest Start, Earns Rs 3.65 Cr
According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the sequel to 'Dhadak' earned Rs 3.65 crore on its first day in India.
The film's release clashed with Ajay Devgn's starer 'Son of Sardaar 2.' With two major films hitting theatres on the same day, movie buffs seem to have divided their attention, which could be one reason why the film fell short of expectations.
Adding to the pressure was the continued success of Ahaan Panday's Saiyaara at the box office. The romantic drama, which hit theatres earlier on July 18, is still performing strongly. This seems to have affected the Siddhant and Dimri starrer.
'Dhadak 2' is a follow-up to 2018's 'Dhadak' and a remake of filmmaker Mari Selvaraj's 2018 Tamil film Pariyerum Perumal.
As per Adarsh, the sequel's first-day numbers are below expectations, especially when compared to its first instalment, 'Dhadak,' which starred Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter. The film had earned Rs 8.71 crore on its opening day back then.
All eyes are now on the weekend collections to see if the film can pick up pace.
Helmed by Shazia Iqbal, Dhadak 2 explores love while challenging social norms. The film follows Siddhant's character as he navigates a love story that breaks through societal expectations and class barriers.

When Yuzvendra Chahal spoke about Dhanashree Verma's demand for 'diamonds': 'Jab bhi ladayi hoti hai...'
As speculation swirled around his separation from choreographer Dhanashree Verma, the cricketer recently opened up about the story behind that headline-making T-shirt and the emotional closure he sought. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Alongside this revelation, a resurfaced clip from Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11 offers a lighthearted look back at their dynamic, shedding new light on their past relationship. A playful memory from Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa While appearing on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11 to support Dhanashree, Yuzvendra joined in on a fun guessing game hosted on stage. During the segment, a moment involving the word 'diamond' led to playful banter between the two. Chahal jokingly suggested that post-arguments, Dhanashree would often expect a gesture or a gift, but clarified it was never really about material things. Instead, he hinted that what she truly sought after a disagreement was a simple apology—not jewels. The exchange offered a light, affectionate glimpse into their relationship at the time. Setting the record straight Addressing assumptions that he was in the marriage for financial gain, Chahal subtly indicated that a particular incident from Verma's side pushed him to respond. Though he initially had no intention of reacting publicly, the situation led him to a point where he felt compelled to speak out. Without targeting or abusing anyone, Chahal clarified that his response was more about sending a clear message and finding closure than stirring confrontation. Yuzvendra also addressed rumours linking him to RJ Mahvash, calling the speculation baseless. He pointed out how being spotted with someone often leads to unfounded media gossip, adding that speaking up only invites further trolling because 'people just want masala.' According to a report by Bar and Bench, Chahal paid Rs 4.75 crore as alimony to Dhanashree Verma. Despite ongoing speculation, both have maintained a dignified silence regarding the real reason behind their separation.
