As Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai is all set to release this Friday, June 5, Bollywood Hungama spoke to trade experts to grasp the excitement for the film.
Trade predicts Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai can open at Rs. 7-8 cr; experts open up on David Dhawan’s possible retirement: “What a profession he has had…”
Trade veteran Taran Adarsh said, “David Dhawan is returning after quite a spot, that too, together with his son again. I would like to look at this film for him. I just hope that he doesn’t churn out something that has been repeated and over-repeated. It is because the audience today has seen all his movies. He’s a director with a terrific filmography who has made the most-watched movies. At the identical time, he’s not going to direct movies after Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. What a profession he has had! That calls for celebration and I hope it matches upto those expectations.”
Trade analyst Atul Mohan added, “The thrill is there and it looks like a light-weight, entertaining film. There hasn’t been a solo Varun Dhawan film in an extended time. Also, its music has turn into popular. Furthermore, David Dhawan is related to the film. So, we hope it’ll be a fun comic caper.”
Girish Johar, producer and film business analyst, remarked, “It’s a mass entertainer. With the nice run of Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, it is evident that if a movie is well-made, the family audience will come to the theatres. Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai also looks as if a whole family entertainer. It stays to be seen if it engages the Gen Z and the young generation with its jokes, songs etc.”
Distributor and exhibitor Raj Bansal opined, “For a lot of weeks, there hasn’t been any film for the children. Hence, it has a likelihood of opening well. All of it relies on the content now.”
When asked concerning the opening day number, everyone was unanimous that the film would open well but may not achieve a double-digit opening.
Raj Bansal said, “I predict it’ll open within the range of Rs. 7-8 crores. I’m not aware how popular the film’s music has been. If it has caught on, the film can open higher by Rs. 1-2 crore. But in case the music hasn’t worked as intended, then it’ll open at Rs. 7-8 crores.”
He added, “A double-digit opening looks difficult. But when the reports are positive, it may even see an enormous jump on Saturday and Sunday.”
Atul Mohan predicted, “Rs. 7-8 crore should easily occur.”
Girish Johar explained, “I don’t think a Rs. 10 crore plus opening is a possibility. It must be under the double-digit mark. I hope it has weekend on the box office.”
Taran Adarsh exulted, “Varun should have a double-digit opening as it’s totally necessary. I don’t know the way they’re going to achieve it. I hope the word of mouth is sweet and the walk-ins on day 1 are equally euphoric.”
He signed off by saying, “It’s his father’s film. It’s being produced by among the finest production houses; Ramesh Taurani ji is a improbable producer. He has never compromised on quality and has given a free hand to his directors to make quality product. On this film, the complete responsibility lies on the Dhawans to deliver!”
