The festive season has thrown open a crowded box office. On October 2, multiple films arrived together, and audiences were spoiled for choice.
Among them, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, tried to hold its own against the massive wave of Rishab Shetty’s Kantara: Chapter 1.
Opening Day Performance
According to a trade website, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari managed a healthy Rs 9.25 crore net in India on its opening day.
The romantic comedy, directed with a splash of colour and youth appeal, benefitted from the Dussehra and Gandhi Jayanti holidays. Audiences, especially the younger crowd, seemed curious to watch Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor’s chemistry on screen.
Day 2 Collections
But Friday told a slightly different story. Collections dipped to Rs 5.25 crore on day 2, bringing the film’s total to Rs 14.50 crore in two days. While the numbers aren’t poor by any means, the sharp competition from Kantara: Chapter 1, which crossed the Rs 100 crore mark within two days, has clearly split the audience.
Trade analysts, however, believe Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari could bounce back over the weekend, as family audiences usually turn up in bigger numbers on Saturdays and Sundays.
Clash With ‘Kantara: Chapter 1’
The box office clash has been one of the biggest talking points this week. While Rishab Shetty’s action-drama created a storm with ₹60 crore on day 1 alone, Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor’s film has carved out a modest but respectable space.
It’s now a wait-and-watch game to see if word-of-mouth can help the Varun Dhawan film sustain its momentum.
