Ajay Devgn’s Son of Sardaar 2 Inches Toward ₹30 Crore as Monday Slows Momentum.
Ajay Devgn’s action-comedy Son of Sardaar 2 hit cinemas on August 1, and despite mixed critical reception, it kicked off with a solid start at the box office, driven by audience enthusiasm for its high-octane humour and emotional beats. The film enjoyed a steady first weekend, but like most theatrical releases, it faced a predictable dip on Monday.
Box Office Performance
According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Son of Sardaar 2 earned ₹2.50 crore on Day 4 (Monday), bringing its total box office collection to ₹27.25 crore. Here’s a quick breakdown of its daily earnings:
- Friday (Aug 1): ₹7.25 crore
- Saturday (Aug 2): ₹8.25 crore
- Sunday (Aug 3): ₹9.25 crore
- Monday (Aug 4): ₹2.50 crore
The film’s nationwide Hindi occupancy on Monday averaged 11.81%, peaking at 16.64% during night shows — a sign that word-of-mouth may still be pulling in late-hour crowds.
What’s the Film About?
Directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, Son of Sardaar 2 is a spiritual sequel to Devgn’s 2012 hit of the same name. The story follows Jassi (Ajay Devgn), who travels to Scotland to reconcile with his estranged wife. But what starts as a mission of love quickly spirals into a hostage situation, a mafia entanglement, and a riotous Punjabi wedding.
Ensemble Cast and Production
The film features a large and lively cast including Sanjay Mishra, Dolly Ahluwalia, Ravi Kishan, Neeru Bajwa, Vindu Dara Singh, Mrunal Thakur, Chunky Pandey, Kubbra Sait, Deepak Dobriyal, Sharat Saxena, and debutante Roshni Walia.
Produced by Devgn Films and Jio Studios, alongside Pravin Talreja, Jyoti Deshpande, and NR Pachisia, the film mixes slapstick with sentimental themes, aiming to appeal to fans of family entertainers and massy comedies.
The Road Ahead
Though the Monday slowdown was expected, Son of Sardaar 2 now faces the mid-week test. With ₹30 crore just around the corner, its weekday performance will be key in determining whether it has the legs to go beyond just a nostalgic draw and become a bonafide box office winner.
