Despite fierce competition from Dhadak 2, which came out on the same day, Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur's comedy comedy Son of Sardaar 2 is slowly making a name for itself at the Indian box office.

With its humorous tone and nostalgic appeal, the follow-up to the 2012 blockbuster is successfully attracting viewers, gradually gaining traction during its opening weekend.

Even though the movie's box office receipts didn't increase significantly, its second-day figures show a slight improvement thanks to the weekend boost. Early projections indicate that Son of Sardaar 2 made about Rs 7.5 crore on Saturday, bringing its two-day domestic net collection to about Rs 14.75 crore.

On Saturday, August 2, the Hindi-language film's overall occupancy rate was 25.94%, indicating a noticeable increase throughout the day. The turnout for morning shows was a lukewarm 8.05%, but by the afternoon it had increased to 22.96%, then to 28.10% for evening screenings, and finally to 44.65% for night shows.

These numbers show that the movie is gradually gaining popularity, particularly among families seeking a more casual weekend viewing experience.

Son of Sardaar 2, which was directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, features Mrunal Thakur as the new female lead and returns Ajay Devgn as Jassi. Along with Ravi Kishan, Sanjay Mishra, Neeru Bajwa, Chunky Panday, and Kubbra Sait, the ensemble cast provides a mix of drama and humour in a vibrant environment.

While Dhadak 2, starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri, has made a comparatively modest start, Son of Sardaar 2 appears to be benefiting from its legacy status and Devgn’s mass appeal. With Sunday still to go, the weekend figures will be crucial in determining the film’s long-term performance.

A part of review from Moneycontrol read, "The first half of the film is frankly a drag. Jokes fall flat, characters wander in and out of scenes without much purpose, and the writing often feels like it’s improvising as it goes along. A gag in the film involves poppy seeds, which are used as a comedic crutch, but it just adds to the overall feeling that the writers are trying too hard to be funny. It’s also baffling how little the film does with talents like Sanjay Mishra, Ashwini Kalsekar, and Deepak Dobriyal. Mishra arrives only in the final stretch, and even then, his punchlines feel diluted by the sheer chaos around him."
