Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerji's latest film Bunty Aur Babli 2 opened to Rs 2.6 crore box office collection on Day 1 of its theatrical release. The film collected Rs 2.50 crore on Saturday and Rs 3.20 crore on it's first Sunday. This brings to the film's first weekend collection to a total of Rs 8.30 crore which is not impressive.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to Twitter and wrote, "#BuntyAurBabli2 has lacklustre opening weekend... No turnaround on Day 2 and minimal growth on Day 3 seals the fate... Will find the going tough on weekdays due to weak trending... Fri 2.60 cr, Sat 2.50 cr, Sun 3.20 cr. Total: â¹ 8.30 cr. #India biz."

Reviewing the film, our film critic Mayank Shekhar gave Bunty Aur Babli 2, 3 stars, and wrote, "Bunty Aur Babli 2 is funny, for the most part. With dependable actors like Saif Ali Khan, Rani Mukerji and Pankaj Tripathi fronting the film, it's tough to fault the cast on their comic timing. With a runtime of 96 minutes, it delivers what it promises - ample laughs, silly cons and a largely enjoyable movie. But, this one is far from memorable. It's a breezy entertainer, but viewers would expect better, especially when looking at the names attached with it."
