The numbers of ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania’ are similar to Akshay Kumar-starrer ‘Jolly LL.B 2. However, if the movie had released in during summer vacation then we could have seen more collection on the first day. In many circuits, the numbers have beaten ‘Jolly LL.B 2’. Since, rains hit parts of East Punjab, the collections were slightly affected. The movie has a good three days until Holi which is on Monday, to do a good business and going by the opening day numbers, we are sure this one is going to be a success.

Also, one cannot forget that Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt are bankable actors and the movie has also received positive critical acclaim all over, so it helps boost numbers.

The movie has registered the second highest opening numbers for a Varun Dhawan film after ‘ABCD 2’. Directed by Prabhu Dheva, ‘ABCD 2’ had Shraddha Kapoor as Varun’s leading lady.
