'Son of Sardaar 2', which stars Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur, opened to a third figure of 'Saiyaara' at INR 7.25 crore, as per industry tracker Sacnilk.

Earlier, Mohit Suri, who has directed 'Saiyaara', had shared that owing to the film's success, he has not been able to give time to his family. His evenings are spent tracking the numbers, occupancy and the footfall in theatre for the evening shows of his film. Naturally, his wife, actress Udita Goswami has some complaints about him being superbusy. But it's a nice feeling to have. He told IANS, 'Every evening I sit with my phone from 6 o'clock to 9 o'clock because I know the evening shows get over and I wait for people to call but everyone's calling, they're calling up crying and to hear their response. I don't know, forget myself, I don't know when there'll be a film like this where people will get so much love and I think that's just something very special". The film is now inching towards the INR 300 crore mark, a first for Mohit and the industry with regards to its debutants.

"The Shazia Iqbal-directed film attempts to tackle caste-based atrocities with courage, but not conviction. Unlike the original 'Pariyerum Perumal', it holds back from making the kind of sharp, fearless commentary the subject demands. What could have been a powerful political statement became a diluted narrative, seemingly softened to dodge censorship or controversy. The re-dubbed climax dialogues only add to the unease," read the review.'Son of Sardaar 2', on the other hand, secured 2.5 rating. A part of the review read, "Ajay Devgn returns as Jassi, a Sardaar lost in Scotland and even more lost in the plot. With forced humour, awkward chemistry, and India-Pakistan punchlines doing the heavy lifting, 'Son of Sardaar 2' struggles to match the charm or chaos of the first film."Along with Ajay Devgn, 'Son of Sardaar 2' also stars Mrunal Thakur, Ravi Kishan, Neeru Bajwa, Deepak Dobriyal, Sanjay Mishra, Chunky Panday and others in pivotal roles.- Ends
