The film showed a solid 60% jump on its second day, which is a positive sign after a relatively soft opening. The ₹1.85Cr figure suggests that word-of-mouth is helping the film gain some traction, especially among audiences who enjoy Imtiaz Ali’s signature romantic storytelling.

Diljit Dosanjh’s growing pan-India appeal combined with Imtiaz Ali’s brand is clearly working as a draw. The period setting and emotional core of the film appear to be resonating better with audiences than the opening day numbers indicated. The growth is particularly noticeable in North India and Punjab, where both the star and the director enjoy strong popularity.

Market-wise, the film has shown better improvement in smaller centres and single-screen theatres compared to major multiplexes. While the overall opening remains modest, the second-day growth offers some encouragement for the weekend.

With a current 0.04x ratio, the film is still in a very early recovery phase. A strong weekend will be crucial for it to build any meaningful momentum.

Reality check: ₹1.85Cr on Day 2 gives a current 0.04x ratio. The film has shown decent growth from its opening but still needs a strong weekend to improve its trajectory.
