The much-anticipated comedy sequel, 'Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2', featuring Kapil Sharma, Ayesha Khan, and Parul Gulati, finally hit the big screens on Friday, December 12, 2025. The film has been navigating a challenging theatrical landscape, striving to hold its ground against major competitors like 'Dhurandhar' and 'Akhanda 2: Thaandavam'. Despite the intense competition, the movie has shown resilience and is now on the verge of crossing a significant milestone.
KKPK 2 Box Office Collection: A Day-by-Day Breakdown
According to trade reports from Sacnilk, the film opened to a collection of Rs 1.85 crore on its first day. The weekend brought a welcome upward trend, with Saturday earnings rising to Rs 2.5 crore. Sunday saw further growth, pulling in Rs 2.9 crore at the domestic box office.
As expected, Monday witnessed a dip, a common trend for most films, with collections falling to Rs 90 lakhs. However, early estimates for Tuesday indicate a recovery, with the film adding approximately Rs 1 crore to its total. This brings the cumulative five-day net collection of 'Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2' to an estimated Rs 9.15 crore. The film is now tantalizingly close to the Rs 10 crore mark, a target it is expected to surpass soon if it maintains its current momentum.
Audience Occupancy Shows Positive Trend
The film's occupancy rate on Tuesday reflected its improved performance. The overall day's occupancy stood at 35.19%, a significant jump from Monday's 17.49%. The day began with a modest 10.39% occupancy for morning shows. Interest grew through the day, with afternoon shows reaching 34.22% and evening shows climbing to 37.52%. The night shows recorded the highest footfall, with occupancy peaking at an impressive 58.62%.
Facing Giants: The Box Office Competition
The Kapil Sharma-starrer's journey is not without hurdles, as it battles two box office powerhouses. The first is the action-drama 'Dhurandhar', starring Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, Sara Arjun, and Arjun Rampal. This film has dominated the box office since its release and shows no signs of slowing down. It is poised to enter its third week after having already crossed the monumental Rs 400 crore mark in business.
On the other hand, Balakrishna Nandamuri's 'Akhanda 2: Thaandavam' continues its strong run in the southern markets. The film is performing robustly and is steadily marching towards the Rs 100 crore club, further intensifying the competition for screens and audience share.
In summary, while 'Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2' faces a steep climb against established blockbusters, its steady collections and growing audience occupancy, especially in night shows, indicate a stable hold. The coming days will be crucial in determining whether this comedy sequel can carve out a sustainable space for itself in a crowded and competitive cinematic arena.
