De De Pyaar De 2 Opens With Disputed Rs 8–9.45 Crore Day 1 In India

Conflicting estimates and soft occupancy leave the box office hinging on weekend growth.

Overview

  • Industry tracker Sacnilk pegged the opening day at about Rs 8.5 crore, while the makers announced Rs 9.45 crore via an official post shared by Rakul Preet Singh.
  • Average Hindi occupancy was roughly 14.05% on Friday with weaker mornings and stronger evening and night shows; advance sales were about 91,111 tickets generating around Rs 2.79 crore.
  • The sequel opened below the first film and behind Ajay Devgn’s bigger recent starts like Raid 2, but it did top Son of Sardaar 2’s day-one take.
  • Early reviews skew tepid to mixed even as some viewers reported enjoying the rom-com, and overseas trade chatter suggested an opening around USD 450,000.
  • Directed by Anshul Sharma and produced by Luv Films and T-Series, the film is expected to stream on Netflix roughly eight weeks after theatrical release, around January 2026.
