Kis Kis Ko Pyaar Karoon 2 Box Office Disappoints
Kapil Sharma's latest film, Kis Kis Ko Pyaar Karoon 2, has experienced a disappointing start at the box office, earning only ₹1.75 crore on its opening day. This performance is a stark contrast to the film's predecessor, which made ₹10.15 crore on its debut in 2015. The first part was not only a commercial success but also left audiences entertained, setting high expectations for the sequel.
The sequel features Kapil Sharma alongside a new cast, including Manjot Singh, Ayesha Khan, Tridha Choudhary, Warina Hussain, and Jamie Lever. The storyline revolves around Kapil's character, Mohan Sharma, whose attempt to marry his girlfriend leads to a series of chaotic events, including multiple unintended marriages and police troubles. This comedic premise, while engaging, seems to have faltered in execution.
According to reports, Kis Kis Ko Pyaar Karoon 2 had a Hindi occupancy rate of only 16.45%, indicating a lack of interest from audiences. The film was released on a significant number of screens, yet it struggled to draw in viewers. Critics have noted that while there are some entertaining moments, the film overall feels stretched and lacks the punch that one would expect from a comedy.
The review from HT highlights that the film plays it safe and stays within its comfort zone. Although it offers some funny moments and a capable cast, the pacing issues contribute to its inability to fully engage the audience. Families looking for a light-hearted watch might still find it enjoyable, but the film has a long way to go to match the success of the first part.
In other news, despite the lackluster performance of his film, Kapil Sharma's popularity remains intact. His comedy show, The Great Indian Kapil Show, is set to return for its fourth season on December 20, with Priyanka Chopra as a likely guest. This return to television may help bolster his career, even as his film struggles to find its footing at the box office.
