Varun Dhawan’s latest film Baby John has seen a significant drop in box-office collections on its second day, with earnings falling to just Rs 4.5 crore. The movie, which opened with considerable fanfare, faced a sharp decline in audience turnout, resulting in a disappointing performance for the production team.
Despite a strong promotional campaign and high expectations, Baby John struggled to maintain its momentum after the opening day. Industry experts attribute the film’s underperformance to stiff competition from other big releases, including the much-anticipated Pushpa 2. The latter emerged as the highest-grossing film on Thursday, overshadowing Baby John’s earnings.
The second-day box office collection marks a significant setback for the film, especially considering the hype surrounding Dhawan’s performance. The movie had generated considerable buzz, but the audience response has not matched the expectations set by its initial release.
The competition from established franchises, like Pushpa 2, has led to a shift in audience preference, which impacted the film’s box-office revenue.
As Baby John continues to struggle at the box office, analysts are keeping a close eye on its future performance over the coming weeks.
In the meantime, Pushpa 2 continues to dominate, keeping its place as the leading film of the week.
