Bollywood comedian Kapil Sharma’s latest venture, Daadi Ki Shaadi, hit cinemas on May 8 with a fair share of buzz. Co-starring veteran actress Neetu Kapoor, the family comedy has delivered a modest start, sparking conversations about its weekend potential.

Day 1 Collections: A Modest Start

On its first Friday, Daadi Ki Shaadi raked in approximately ₹60 lakh nationwide. While this figure represents a 100% jump over the recent Hindi comedy Ginny Weds Sunny 2 (which opened at ₹30 lakh), it still falls below the coveted ₹1 crore mark that big-ticket Bollywood releases often target on day one.

How It Stacks Up Against Past Kapil Sharma Films

Despite the encouraging word-of-mouth and favourable reviews, this opening is now the second lowest of Kapil Sharma’s career. Here’s how his debut-day numbers compare:

Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon: ₹10.15 crore
Firangi: ₹2 crore
Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2: ₹1.85 crore
Daadi Ki Shaadi: ₹60 lakh
Zwigato: ₹42 lakh

Weekend Hopes and Word-of-Mouth

The makers are banking on positive audience feedback to boost footfalls over Saturday and Sunday. Early reactions praise the warm chemistry between Sharma and Kapoor, and the film’s lighthearted storyline. If strong reviews translate into packed auditoriums, Daadi Ki Shaadi could witness a healthy uptick this weekend.

With family outings and summer holidays around the corner, Kapil Sharma’s brand of humour still has the power to draw crowds—provided the buzz keeps building. Only time will tell if Daadi’s wedding adventure becomes a surprising box office success.
