Varun Dhawan’s latest film, Baby John, has seen a significant drop in its box office collection on its second day. After a promising start on Christmas Day, the film’s earnings have declined sharply. Baby John collected around ₹3.9 crore on its second day. This brings the total collection to approximately ₹15.4 crore in two days.
The film, directed by Kalees, is an action thriller that tells the story of a cop who assumes a new identity to protect his daughter. Despite the star power of Varun Dhawan and Keerthy Suresh, the film struggled to maintain its momentum after the initial buzz.
On its second day, Baby John experienced varied occupancy rates throughout the day. The morning shows saw an occupancy of around 12%, which slightly improved to 18% in the afternoon. The evening shows had a better turnout with 25% occupancy, while the night shows peaked at 30%.
The sharp decline in collections on the second day is concerning for the makers of Baby John. The film faces stiff competition from other releases like Pushpa 2 and Mufasa, which continue to draw large audiences. The mixed reviews and word-of-mouth have also impacted the film’s performance.
For Baby John to recover and sustain its run at the box office, it will need strong weekend collections. The upcoming holiday season might provide a boost, but the film’s long-term success will depend on positive audience feedback and consistent occupancy rates.
Baby John has had a challenging start at the box office. The second day’s performance indicates a need for better audience engagement and stronger promotional efforts. Fans of Varun Dhawan and Keerthy Suresh are hopeful that the film will pick up pace in the coming days and achieve better numbers.
