'@saurabhsachdeva77 you were so, so good. So good. Beautiful. ❤️❤️❤️. @itsharishkhanna so beautiful you were. Especially in that last home scene. So torn. So torn. @manjiripupala beautiful work again. So happy for you. @deekshajoshi0412 @vipin.sta beautiful work as usual. Especially the insult scene at college. Beautiful," he further added.
Aditya concluded his note by adding, '@siddhantchaturvedi I've loved you this much after Gully Boy. Thank you for doing this film. That wedding scene and everything you felt after the insult was beautiful, beautiful. You've thrown yourself into it. Thank you. @tripti_dimri who are you?????? Who are you?????? I loved what you've done. Very, very beautiful. @shaz.3.0 you've made this film so beautifully."
News18 also reviewed the film and gave it 3.5 stars out of 5, and a part of our review reads, ' It's worth noting that Dhadak 2 isn't an original story. It's a remake of the much-loved Tamil film Pariyerum Perumal. But even as a remake, it feels fresh and meaningful, especially in a world full of sloppy adaptations. This one stands tall. Dhadak 2 is the kind of film that screams good storytelling, and hence, it's a clear reminder to everyone that good movies can still be made, if the heartbeat (Dhadak) is in the right direction. If you've been craving an honest romantic thriller that's believable, then trust me and don't miss this one. Book your tickets now."

Son of Sardaar 2 Box Office Collection Day 3: Ajay Devgn-Mrunal Thakur's film set to cross ₹25 crore mark
Son of Sardaar 2 Box Office Collection Day 3: Ajay Devgn-Mrunal Thakur's comedy movie, Son of Sardaar 2, released on Friday. The film had a lukewarm opening at the box office, but improved over the weekend. Son of Sardaar 2 is directed by Vijay Kumar Arora. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Son of Sardaar 2 minted ₹ 7.74 crore on day 3 from its morning, afternoon and evening shows across India. The total business made by the film so far is ₹ 23.24 crore. While this is live data from the website, the final figure will be out after the night show. If the film maintains its current momentum, it is expected to cross the ₹ 25 crore mark by tonight. Son of Sardaar 2 had an overall 34.50% occupancy on Sunday. The occupancy was as follows: The highest number of screenings for Son of Sardaar 2 was in Delhi-NCR, with 631 shows. Mumbai followed with 396 shows, and Ahmedabad came next with 356 shows. In terms of occupancy, regions like Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Pune and Bengaluru are leading ever since Son of Sardaar 2 released on Friday. The comedy film is facing a tough competition from YRF's hit Saiyaara and Hombale Films' animated film Mahavatar Narsimha. Dharma's latest Dhadak 2 was also released this week. Son of Sardaar 2 is jointly produced by Ajay Devgn, Jyoti Deshpande, N.R. Pachisia and Pravin Talreja. It is a standalone sequel to the 2012 film Son of Sardaar. Starring Ajay Devgn, Mrunal Thakur, Ravi Kishan and Sanjay Mishra in the lead, the film is also the posthumous film of late actor Mukul Dev. Mukul Dev died, reportedly due to an illness. He was hospitalised in May 2025 and later moved to the intensive care unit (ICU) before he passed away on May 23rd in New Delhi. He was 54. Meanwhile, Son of Sardaar 2 received mixed reviews from critics. Film industry expert Taran Adarsh called the film 'disappointing' in his social media review.

Dhadak 2 Box Office collection Day 3: Triptii Dimri, Siddhant Chaturvedi movie crosses ₹10 cr mark; mints THIS amount
Dhadak 2 Box Office collection Day 3: Shazia Iqbal's directorial debut starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri witnessed a slow start after finally being released in the big screens following multiple delays. Three days into its theatrical release, the movie has now crossed the ₹ 10 crore mark. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Dhadak 2 movie's net collection as of Sunday evening, August 3, stands at ₹ 10.34 crore. The Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri starrer movie minted ₹ 2.74 crore, which is nearly ₹ 1 crore less as compared to Dhadak 2's collection on the first two days. However, Sunday's collection is only the early estimate, as the final figures are yet to trickle in. Here's a glimpse of how much Dhadak 2 minted on the first two days: Day 1 [1st Friday] - ₹ 3.5 crore Day 2 [1st Saturday] - ₹ 3.75 crore Dhadak 2 movie's Box Office collection on Day 3 also reflected in the footfalls, with the Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri film recording an overall 33.43 per cent Hindi Occupancy on Sunday, August 3. Theatres were filled up to 13.78 % in the morning, while the occupancy for afternoon shows stood at 38.19%, and 48.32% for evening shows. Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh gave Dhadak 2 a 3.5 star rating and said, '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 box office collection day 3: Siddhant Chaturvedi-Triptii Dimri film is no Saiyaara, finally crosses ₹10 crore
Dhadak 2 box office collection day 3: Shazia Iqbal's Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri-starrer Dhadak 2 released in theatres last Friday. Expectations were high from the remake of the Tamil film Pariyerum Perumal, and the film managed to open to mostly positive reviews. Dhadak 2 is a spiritual sequel to the 2018 Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor-starrer Dhadak. As per Sacnilk, the film has now crossed the ₹10 crore mark.

Dhadak 2 box office collection day 3: Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri in a still from the film. Dhadak 2 box office update The latest update on Sacnilk states that Dhadak 2 collected ₹ 3.77 crore on its third day of release. The film had collected ₹ 3.5 crore on its opening day, and showed little growth on its second day of release, collecting ₹ 3.75 crore. The overall collection now stands at ₹ 11.02 crore. Dhadak 2 is facing stiff competition at the box office from several releases—Ajay Devgn's Son of Sardaar 2, the animation film Mahavatar Narsimha, Ahaan Panday-Aneet Padda's Saiyaara, and Vijay Deverakonda's Kingdom. Saiyaara, now in its third week of release, collected more than Dhadak 2 on Sunday, with ₹8 crore. Saiyaara has now crossed the ₹300 crore mark in India and emerged as a blockbuster. About Dhadak 2 Dhadak 2 tells the tale of a law student who falls for his classmate, only for her family to harass him due to caste differences. Talking about the film's sensitive message, Triptii told PTI, 'It should reach the maximum audience because it's entertaining and also leaves a little note, so that is something which we are constantly looking for. We found that equilibrium... There is something real and sensitive about it ('Dhadak 2'). All of these guys have more responsibility, and they are very well aware of that. That's why they have been very quiet about everything, like while we were shooting for the film, even the censor board issues, we never spoke about anything.'
