Varun Dhawan is back on the big screen with his new action drama film, Baby John, which has given fans a chance to see him in a completely different role. The actor has received positive feedback from the audience for his impressive performance. The film had an exciting opening at the box office, but unfortunately, it saw a significant drop in earnings on its second day.
On its opening day, Baby John performed well, earning Rs 11.25 crore. However, on day 2, the box office collection fell to just Rs 4.50 crore, according to early estimates by Sacnilk. The total earnings of the film now stand at Rs 15.75 crore. Despite this sharp decline in numbers, there is still hope that the film's performance will improve over the weekend and during the New Year period, as more people may go to watch it during the holiday season.
Khushi Bhardwaj, who also stars in Baby John, shared her experience of working with Varun Dhawan in an interview with News24. She spoke about how, despite her role being brief and their limited interactions, she was impressed by Varun's kindness and humility. She recalled a moment on the Kochi set when Varun went out of his way to pull out a chair for her, which she described as a thoughtful and humble gesture. She further added that Varun's down-to-earth nature and professionalism were truly inspiring. According to Khushi, his respect for everyone on set was clear, and his grounded attitude showed that success can be achieved without losing kindness.

Khushi praised Varun for being a role model for young artists, teaching them that success is not just about talent, but also about treating others with kindness and respect. Her experience working on Baby John reminded her that true success comes from both professional skill and how one interacts with people around them.
Besides Varun Dhawan, Baby John also stars Keerthy Suresh, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Jackie Shroff, adding to the film's strong cast. While the movie has faced some challenges in maintaining its box office numbers after the grand opening, there is still hope that the film may see a boost in viewership as the holiday season continues.
