Dream Girl 2 had a good first week at the Indian box office, with collections of over 63 crore nett. The Ayushmann Khurrana and Ananya Panday starrer was boosted by the Raksha Bandhan holiday but still couldn't catch its predecessor's numbers.
Dream Girl 2 was lower than Dream Girl in the opening weekend, and now first-week numbers also stand lower than the first film. The general idea of a sequel is to make more money, widen the appeal, and make the brand stronger, but here things seem a bit off, but not bad. The ATP was higher for the sequel, yet it couldn't beat the number set 4 years ago.
