The romantic drama entered theatres with expectations rooted in franchise recall and Kapil Sharma’s popularity, but its box office journey so far has been more measured than explosive.
On Day 3 (Sunday), the film collected approximately ₹2.8–3 crore at the Indian box office, marking its best single-day performance since release. This Sunday’s growth, though expected for a weekend film, suggests the movie attracted a slightly wider audience as families and casual viewers stepped in.
The three-day total places Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 in the moderate openers category. While it has avoided an outright poor start, it has also failed to generate strong opening buzz. The film’s performance suggests that audience curiosity was limited, and walk-in bookings accounted for a large share of the weekend’s business.
One of the biggest hurdles for Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 is the intense competition currently dominating theatres. Bigger films with stronger promotional campaigns and wider appeal have taken up a large share of screens, leaving limited room for mid-budget entertainers to shine.
This competition has affected show counts and prime-time slots, especially in major urban centres. Even on Sunday, when family audiences are more active, the film had to compete with stronger performers, limiting its growth potential.
The presence of multiple options has made it difficult for Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 to emerge as the preferred choice for neutral audiences.
Audience feedback has been mixed, which is reflected in the box office numbers. While fans of Kapil Sharma’s humour and light-hearted storytelling have appreciated the film’s familiar tone, others have found it predictable.
The humour-driven narrative has worked in parts, especially for viewers seeking casual entertainment, but it hasn’t sparked the kind of enthusiastic word of mouth needed for a major jump. As a result, the Sunday growth appears more weekend-driven than recommendation-driven.
This lukewarm response could play a decisive role in how the film performs during the weekdays.
If the film manages to stay around the ₹1.5–2 crore range on Monday and Tuesday, it could aim for a decent first-week total. However, a steep fall would indicate limited theatrical legs, pushing the film toward an early slowdown.
The coming days will also decide how long the film can retain screens, especially with new releases lined up.
