Two highly anticipated sequels, Son of Sardaar 2 and Dhadak 2, released in theatres on August 1. While Son of Sardaar 2 brings back Ajay Devgn in a comedy avatar, Dhadak 2 offers a fresh take on romance with Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri in the lead. Both films had a fair amount of buzz before release, but now that they’re out, audiences and critics are reacting quite differently to each. As they compete for attention at the box office alongside ongoing hits like Saiyaara and Mahavtar Narasimha, it’s interesting to see how the numbers are shaping up for both.
Son Of Sardaar 2 Box Office Collection Day 2:
Ajay Devgn’s much awaited sequel had a steady start at the box office. On its opening day, the film collected Rs 7.25 crore. The momentum continued on Day 2 with sacnilk’s early estimates suggesting a collection of Rs 7.50 crore. This brings the film’s total two day collection to Rs 14.75 crore.
The response for Ajay Devgn’s ‘Son of Sardaar 2’ hasn’t been too promising. The film has largely received mixed to negative reviews. Earlier this year, Raid 2 had a much better start, earning Rs 19.25 crore on its first day. It released on a national holiday, which helped draw big crowds with over 34% occupancy. Good reviews and positive word of mouth pushed the film past Rs 100 crore within just a few days.
With Sunday’s earnings still to come in, the total weekend collection is likely to rise further.
About Son Of Sardaar 2:
Apart from Ajay Devgn, the movie also stars Mrunal Thakur, Ravi Kishan and Sanjay Mishra in the lead roles. ‘Son Of Sardaar 2’ also features the late actor Mukul Dev, who passed away on May 23, 2025, a few months before the release of his movie. The first part of ‘Son Of Sardaar 2’ was released in 2012 and also starred Sonakshi Sinha, Juhi Chawla and Sanjay Dutt.
Dhadak 2 Box Office Collection Day 2:
Dhadak 2 opened at the box office with a decent start, collecting Rs 3.5 crore on its first Friday. The momentum picked up slightly on its second day, earning Rs 3.75 crore as per sacnilk’s early estimates. With this, the total box office collection stands at Rs 7.25 crore after two days. The film is yet to cross the Rs 10 crore mark.
The romantic drama is facing tough competition at the box office from Ajay Devgn’s sequel Son of Sardaar 2. Meanwhile, Saiyaara is still doing well even in its third week and is expected to cross the Rs 300 crore mark by Sunday. On the other hand, the animated film Mahavtar Narasimha is also performing strongly in its second week.
