Badrinath Ki Dulhania box office collection day 8: Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan’s film BEATS the lifetime collection of Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, earns Rs. 77.87 crore

And Badrinath Ki Dulhania does it! We told you yesterday that Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan‘s latest film from the Dulhania series will cross the lifetime collection of their prequel Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania on its second Friday and it did just that. By earning Rs. 77.87 crore it has crossed the entire collection of Humpty (Rs. 76.81 crore).

Taran Adarsh shared the numbers saying, “#BadrinathKiDulhania braves multiple new films, yet dominates the BO… [Week 2] Fri 4.21 cr. Total: ₹ 77.87 cr. India biz.” Three films released yesterday, Trapped, Machine and Aa Gaya Hero. None of them could put a dent in the collection of Varun’s film. And to think of it, Govinda was worried Karan Johar planned Badrinath Ki Dulhania’s release to sabotage his own film. Did that ever held a chance in prospering against BKD? Even in its second weekend the film is earning well which proves people are opting for it. We told you how all the three recent releases have been disappointments at the box office and that helped Badrinath…further. Check out the numbers once again.

And it’s not ending on just that. The film is poised to earn more in the coming days. As Taran Adarsh puts it,

The innocent charm of this couple is the definite reason behind its success. There is something magical about Alia and Varun. Since Student Of The Year, they have been consistent in oozing just the right amount of chemistry onscreen which leaves audience glued to their seats. That has helped Badrinath Ki Dulhania as well.
