A Steady Second Weekend
The film collected Rs 2.25 crore on its second Saturday, recording a 15 percent spike over Friday but nearly a 70 percent drop on a week-on-week comparison, taking its 9-day total to Rs 40 crore nett. Directed by David Dhawan, the comedy drama is looking to close its second weekend around Rs 43 crore, while facing competition from new Bollywood and Hollywood releases, with Obsession remaining its biggest rival.

How Does It Compare to Varun’s Last Film?
Co-starring Mrunal Thakur, Pooja Hegde, Mouni Roy, Maniesh Paul, and Jimmy Shergill, the film is following a trajectory similar to Varun Dhawan’s previous outing Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, which netted around Rs 60 crore in its full run. Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai is expected to exceed the Rs 50 crore mark by the end of its theatrical run.
The Competition Factor
With Obsession continuing its dominant run and fresh releases entering theatres, the film’s second-weekend hold will be key to determining whether it can comfortably clear the Rs 50 crore projection or settle closer to its current pace.
