“Yaariyan 2” experienced a disappointing opening day at the box office. The romantic comedy, featuring Divya Khosla, Meezaan Jafri, and Pearl V Puri, collected approximately ₹60 lakhs on its first day, according to early estimates shared by Sacnilk.com. The film’s performance was reported to have a low occupancy rate of 5.65 percent on its opening day.
“Yaariyan 2” had the unfortunate timing of releasing alongside Tiger Shroff and Kriti Sanon’s action film “Ganapath.” While both films faced competition, “Ganapath” performed slightly better than “Yaariyan 2.”
The initial box office collections suggest that “Yaariyan 2” had a challenging start in terms of audience response and ticket sales on its first day of release. The success of a movie often depends on its performance in the following days, so it remains to be seen how the film will fare in the longer run.
