Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor starrer locked horns with Kantara Chapter 1
Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari box office collection Day 2: Dharma Productions' romantic comedy Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, had a decent start at the box office with collections of Rs 9.25 crore on its first day.

According to Sacnilk, the film earned an estimated Rs 5.25 crore on Day 2. Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari's total box office collection stands at Rs 14.50 crore. It is behind Janhvi's last release, Param Sundari, which collected Rs 16.5 crore in two days. But it has performed better than Varun's last release, Baby John (2024), on the second day, which tanked at the box office. It opened at around Rs 11 crore, and saw a dip on Day 2 with just Rs 4.75 crore.
Varun-Janhvi starrer recorded an overall 18.01% Hindi occupancy on Friday. The film registered 9.06% in the morning shows, which improved to 17.44% in the afternoon and 18.33% in the evening. The highest footfall was during the night shows, with occupancy increasing to 27.20%.
Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari opened to mixed reviews, while Kantara Chapter 1 received an overwhelming response. The Hindi version of the Rishab Shetty starrer is performing much better than the former.
An excerpt from the Outlook India review of Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari reads: "Creating a hierarchy between the lead pair and a corresponding second pair is narratively and cinematically detrimental to Shashank Khaitan’s Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari."
