Adarsh tweeted that the movie has taken fourth spot among the top five openers of 2017 so far. Baahubali 2 (Rs 41 crore), Tubelight (Rs 21.15 crore), Raees (Rs 20.42 crore) and Jab Harry Met Sejal (Rs 15.25 crore) being the others.
Komal Nahta, another trade expert, said the Dhawans “deliver a hit in Judwaa 2.

Judwaa 2 sees Varun bringing back to celluloid the iconic characters Raja and Prem portrayed by Salman Khan in Judwaa. Jacqueline and Taapsee have stepped into the shoes of Karisma Kapoor and Rambha.
Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, it is presented by Fox Star Studios and Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.
