Looks like Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor's big screen romance is having serious case of box office blues. Even on its first Saturday, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari is just sitting still, failing spectaculary to grab attention of the audiences. It's really a headscratch situation for filmmakers when a film can't even get a boost on its first weekend, making it seems like even Dhawan and Kapoor's chemistry couldn't do the magic for moviegoers. One tiny scene that captured everyone's heart is Prajakta Koli's cameo appearance as Dimple with the reference from Netflix's popular show, Mismatched.
The Hindi romantic comedy drama collected Rs 7.25 crore on its third day, which makes it a total of Rs 22 crore collection within three days of its release. Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari couldn't even surpass its own opening day collection which was Rs 9.25 crore, even on a Saturday.
According to Sacnilk, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari had an overall Hindi occupancy of 26.28% on October 4. While the occupancy for morning shows was at 11.99%, the afternoon shows saw it rise to 27.20%, followed by the evening shows with 28.96% occupancy, and finally the night shows again registered a decent jump to 36.96% occupancy.
The Hindi comedy drama is directed by Shashank Khaitan, who previously directed Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania (2015) and Badrinath Ki Dulhania (2017), making Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari the third collaboration between Khaitan and Varun Dhawan. The plot of the film has a brilliant mixture of romance, quirky comedy, family drama, and unexpected twists turns, all the masalas that a typical Bollywood film is expected to have.
Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari centers on two main characters–Sunny and Tulsi–as they decide to work together on their romance. Their goal is to stop the marriage of their former partners, Vikram and Ananya. However, the story takes an turn when Vikram ends up marrying absolutely a different person named Dimpy, nor Ananya nor Tulsi. The character Dimple is played by Prajakta Koli and Vikram is played by Rohit Saraf.
This casting gave a surprise twists by the end of the film, making the audiences give a round of applause for bringing back the fresh nostalgia from Netflix's popular show, Mismatched.
