Pati Patni Aur Woh Do box office Day 2: Comedy-drama earns Rs 13.7 crore globally

Pati Patni Aur Woh Do grossed Rs 13.70 crore worldwide in two days after releasing in theatres on May 15. Directed by Mudassar Aziz and starring Ayushmann Khurrana, Wamiqa Gabbi, Sara Ali Khan and Rakul Preet Singh, the comedy-drama has collected Rs 9.75 crore nett in India so far, showing slight growth on its second day after a slow opening.

According to trade website Sacnilk, the film earned Rs 5.75 crore nett in India on Saturday from 6,717 shows with a 16 per cent occupancy rate. While the overall numbers remain modest, the film recorded a noticeable jump from its opening-day collection.

On Friday, the film collected Rs 4.38 crore nett from 6,822 shows with a 12 per cent occupancy. Its worldwide gross now stands at Rs 13.70 crore since release.

The current numbers are lower than those of the 2019 film Pati Patni Aur Woh, starring Kartik Aaryan, Bhumi Pednekar and Ananya Panday. The original film had collected Rs 9.1 crore on its opening day and Rs 12.33 crore on day two. It eventually finished with a domestic total of Rs 84.56 crore nett.

The new film still has Sunday to improve its collections before weekday numbers are expected to slow down.

In its review of the film, India Today wrote, "Pati Patni Aur Woh Do is not great cinema. It is not groundbreaking, unforgettable or emotionally layered. But it is enjoyable enough, consistently watchable and powered by an actor who has clearly returned to his strongest zone. That is enough for a casual Friday movie outing."

Apart from Ayushmann Khurrana, the film also features Wamiqa Gabbi, Rakul Preet Singh and Sara Ali Khan in key roles.
