De De Pyaar De 2 is slowly finding its ground at the box office. The film didn’t open on the same note as its first installment, and expectations were naturally high this time, given the returning brand value and star cast. Yet, the audience response on Friday gave a fair indication that this franchise still has its loyal fan base. The talk around the film DDPD 2 started building from Friday evening onward.
The Day 2 has turned out to be exactly what the team would have hoped for. A solid jump, steady word of mouth, and strong performance in the urban pockets — everything seems to be moving in the right direction at the moment.
The Momentum Begins To Build
Saturday often decides the direction of a film’s opening weekend. And for De De Pyaar De 2, Saturday has played out beautifully. The morning occupancy was better, the afternoon shows improved further, and by evening, footfalls had grown significantly.
The buzz among families and young crowds is picking up. Ajay Devgn’s charm, Rakul Preet’s ease, and R. Madhavan’s lovable screen presence are working well together. The chemistry, humour, and lighthearted narrative are appealing to urban audiences, especially in metros and Tier-1 circuits.
With a strong Saturday boost, the film is now positioned for an impressive Sunday.

And now, the big reveal. The film has posted a strong 46% growth on Day 2, marking a clear upward trend. Here are the official numbers:
- Day 1 (Fri): Rs 9.45 crore
- Day 2 (Sat): Rs 13.77 crore
- Total: Rs 23.22 crore India nett
This jump is exactly what a Hindi rom-com needs in its first weekend, especially when the genre isn’t the most dominant performer in recent years. The growth also reflects the goodwill that the original film still enjoys.
Word Of Mouth Is Playing A Key Role
What’s working for the film is its feel-good energy. Audiences are enjoying the humour, the breezy storytelling, and the emotional beats. R. Madhavan’s addition is getting special appreciation, and many viewers are calling him the heart of the sequel.
Urban belts like Mumbai, Pune, Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad have contributed heavily. Multiplex chains saw a healthy rise, which helped the Day 2 total significantly.
If Sunday performs even slightly better than Saturday, De De Pyaar De 2 will close its first weekend on a satisfying note.
What’s Next For DDPD2?
The next big test begins on Monday. But for now, the film has shown it can pull its audience when the word spreads. The team will hope for a stable hold on weekdays, which will shape its journey going forward.
The positive signs are already here. Now, it’s all about sustaining the pace.
