Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari Faces a Steep Drop in Earnings on Day 2, Challenges Ahead at Box Office

The Bollywood romantic comedy "Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari," starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, opened on October 2, 2025, coinciding with the Dussehra festival, garnering ₹9.25 crore on its first day at the Indian box office. Despite expectations of a continued strong showing, the film witnessed a sharp decline in collections on its second day, earning just ₹5.25 crore. This brings the total two-day domestic collection to ₹14.50 crore.

The film’s sudden drop in revenue has disappointed the producers and cast, especially given the aggressive promotion and the presence of other stars like Rohit Saraf and Sanya Malhotra. Currently, the film faces tough competition at the box office, notably from Rishab Shetty’s massive hit "Kantara Chapter 1."

With an estimated budget of around ₹80 crore, "Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari" may require a longer theatrical run to recover its production costs fully. The weekend performance will be crucial in determining whether the film can gain traction or continue to struggle against competing releases.

Audience reactions remain mixed, but the popularity of the film’s music continues to keep some momentum alive. The film’s future earnings will depend significantly on word-of-mouth and overall reception in the coming days.
