Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai added ₹1.85Cr on Day 8, taking its lifetime India net to ₹38.70Cr and worldwide gross to ₹58.56Cr.
The David Dhawan–Varun Dhawan comedy is showing the expected moderation as it enters its second week.
| Day 5 | ₹3.50Cr |

| Day 6 | ₹2.80Cr |
| Day 7 | ₹2.60Cr |
| Day 8 | ₹1.85Cr |
The romantic comedy is experiencing the typical post-opening week drop. The ₹1.85Cr figure on Day 8 reflects a steady but declining interest from family and urban audiences. While the film started on a modest note, it has managed to maintain a consistent run without any major collapse, which is a positive sign for a mid-budget comedy.
David Dhawan’s direction keeps the film light and entertaining, relying on situational humour and the charm of its lead pair. Varun Dhawan’s energetic screen presence continues to be the main draw, supported by a decent ensemble cast. The music has also played a role in keeping the film relevant among younger audiences.
Market-wise, the performance remains relatively better in North India compared to other regions. Multiplexes in major cities have seen a sharper decline, while single-screen and smaller centres are showing slightly better holds. The film’s clean content and family-friendly appeal have helped it avoid a steep drop that many recent comedies have faced.
Looking ahead, the coming weekdays will be crucial. With a current 0.70x ratio, the film needs to maintain a decent floor to improve its final verdict. While it may not reach HIT territory, a strong finish could still make it an average performer.
