After a long time, Bollywood witnessed a good business at the box office and the credit goes to Varun Dhawan's Judwaa 2. The David Dhawan movie opened with big numbers and saw a wonderful run at the domestic market in its first weekend.
Released on September 29, Judwaa 2 got a solo release and also, cashed in on the festival season. Though the movie received mixed reviews from the critics, the audiences have enjoyed the movie and were nostalgic while watching Judwaa 2.
It is the remake of Salman Khan's 1997 release, Judwaa. The Sultan actor appeared in Judwaa 2 for a cameo as well. When the star cast and the script are entertaining, then the movie will definitely be a hit.
Judwaa 2 made a thunderous opening with a collection of Rs 16.10 crore net at the Indian box office. On day 2, it earned Rs 20.55 and now, the third day, which was a Sunday, the movie collected Rs 22.60 crore.
Thus, the total box office collection of Judwaa 2 first weekend sums up to Rs 59.25 crore. The movie has crossed Rs 50 crore in three days and is ready to touch Rs 60 crore. Isn't it amazing?
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted: "#Judwaa2 Fri 16.10 cr, Sat 20.55 cr, Sun 22.60 cr. Total: ₹ 59.25 cr. India biz... Will score BIG numbers again today [holiday]..."
The Varun Dhawam-starrer is expected to do wonders on Monday as well. It is October 2, which is a holiday, and thus, the collection on day 4 may earn another Rs 20 crore and above.
The SMASHING opening weekend biz of #Judwaa2 proves yet again that well-made mass entertainers will never go out of fashion!
