David Dhawan is heading for retirement, and his final film would be Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. The Bollywood romantic comedy stars Varun Dhawan, Pooja Hegde, and Mrunal Thakur in the leading roles. The on-ground buzz is favorable so far, but can it dethrone VD’s 4-year-old opening record in India? Scroll below for the day 1 analysis.
Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai Box Office Day 1 Prediction
The ticket windows are congested, but there’s not a single release that is a force. Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai is releasing on June 5, 2026. By then, Dhurandhar 2, Aakhri Sawal, and Krishnavataram Part 1 will likely conclude their theatrical journey. There will be competition from Bhooth Bangla, Chand Mera Dil, and Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, which will likely achieve saturation in the next two weeks.
The official trailer received a highly positive response, as David Dhawan struck the right chords with his signature romantic-comedy directing style. According to the current buzz, Varun Dhawan starrer could open in the 7-9 crore range, as predicted by Koimoi earlier. If the trends surpass expectations in advance booking, it may clock the double-digit score.
