Janhvi and Khushi Kapoor's Bollywood Introductions: Loveyapa Falls Short Against Dhadak's Day 1 Box Office Performance
1 month ago | 5 Views
The next generation of Kapoor sisters, following in the footsteps of Kareena and Karisma, have officially entered the Bollywood scene, drawing significant attention to their performances. Khushi Kapoor's debut film, Loveyapa, premiered today, although it has a long journey ahead. Despite extensive promotional efforts, initial trends indicate that Loveyapa is lagging considerably behind Janhvi Kapoor's debut film, Dhadak. Let us examine the Box Office performance of both films on their opening day.
Loveyapa Box Office prediction/trends day 1

Loveyapa is supported by Aamir Khan and Boney Kapoor. This film represents the debut of their children, Junaid Khan, who previously appeared in Maharaja on Netflix, and Khushi Kapoor, who was featured in the Netflix film The Archies. Whether audiences have formed early judgments of their performances based on their OTT debuts or due to Loveyapa being a post-COVID release, the initial day for this movie does not seem encouraging, especially when compared to the performance of Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter in Dhadak. Box office trends and predictions indicate that Loveyapa may reach around Rs. 1.50 crores (the initial estimate was Rs. 70 lakhs, but collections could increase due to positive word-of-mouth), yet this figure still falls short of the earnings Dhadak achieved on its opening day.
Dhadak day 1 Box Office

Karan Johar's Dhadak benefited from several advantageous elements. It served as the official adaptation of the acclaimed Marathi romantic film, Sairat. The soundtrack was engaging and nearly matched the original's appeal. Additionally, the film marked the acting debuts of Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter, and it was released prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. At that time, audiences were eager to return to cinemas and discover the offerings of new talent. Consequently, in an era where achieving Rs. 100 crore at the box office was becoming commonplace, even newcomers could generate a box office revenue exceeding Rs. 8 crores, as evidenced by its earnings of Rs. 8.75 crores. Therefore, when compared to Loveyapa, Dhadak remains a more formidable contender, although it is essential to consider the context of the pre-COVID environment.
Dhadak vs Loveyapa: Which Kapoor sister is the winner?
At first glance, it is evident that Janhvi Kapoor and her inaugural film Dhadak stand out as the clear frontrunners. However, it may be premature to determine the success or failure of Loveyapa, primarily due to the ambiguity surrounding the film's budget. The box office performance over the opening weekend and the following Monday will provide a more definitive assessment of whether Loveyapa will achieve hit status, become a superhit, or ultimately be classified as another failure in the post-COVID landscape.
