Ayushmann Khurrana’s Dream Girl 2 is all set to release on August 25th, 2023 across all Indian theatres. The film recently made headlines for cropping out over twenty-eight minutes of scenes voluntarily even after receiving the censorship certificate. Now some experts are worried that the film might not do as well as anticipated as the two blockbusters Gadar 2 and OMG 2 are still ruling the box office.

Trade expert Taran Adarsh said, “Dream Girl 2 comes with a tag of a franchise. The first part was very much loved. In the single screens, Gadar 2 will continue to roar. In multiplexes, the screens will be reduced to accommodate Dream Girl 2.”

He added, ““Gadar 2 won’t get affected by Dream Girl 2’s as much as OMG 2. It had a bigger chunk of revenue coming from the multiplexes. That’s what the target audience of Dream Girl 2 is. In the heartlands, Gadar 2 is in a different league altogether. And Dream Girl 2 will get affected in single screens. I don’t think it has the power to withstand an opponent like Gadar 2.”

On the other hand, Raj Bansal, the owner of Entertainment Paradise opposed the views saying, “It’ll get affected not in terms of box office but in terms of showcasing. For a long time, there has been no comedy flick. OMG 2 is theme-based and delivers a social message. Gadar 2 is an Indo-Pak film with a lot of action. There are so many people who prefer to only watch light-hearted films. Dream Girl 2 fits the bill. Its runtime of 132 minutes is apt. Ayushmann Khurrana also is a decent actor.” He continues, “Also, titles with ‘2’ are doing great at the box office. Gadar 2 and OMG 2 are huge hits and now Dream Girl 2 may benefit. There’s no logic to this notion obviously. It’s just an observation.”

Supporting the argument of Raj Bansal, trade analyst Atul Mohan says, “OMG 2 has almost exhausted its run. It has done most of its business. Dream Girl 2 is a new flick and looks like a typical comic caper. It’s a film that seems to be the one that’ll deliver a lot of laughs, as promised. It also looks massy. It’s been a while since such a film has released.”

With so many mixed predictions, we can only wait and watch if the film will be as successful as the first one, ‘Dream Girl.’ The movie also casts Ananya Pandey, Paresh Rawal, Annu Kapoor, Manjot Singh, Vijay Raaz and others.
