Last week, Sonakshi Sinha's Khandaani Shafakhana released in theatres and despite being a socially relevant film, it turned out to be a big dud at the Indian box office. While Sona's movie is already out of most cinema halls, this week yet another Hindi film is hitting the screens. Jabariya Jodi starring Parineeti Chopra and Sidharth Malhotra is releasing tomorrow and going by the pre-release buzz, it seems we are going to witness yet another average affair at the box office. While the romantic comedy looks like a vibrant, light-hearted family drama, it definitely won't storm the ticket windows on Friday.

According to trade pundits, Jabariya Jodi directed by Prashant Singh will take a decent opening of around Rs 3 to 3.5 crore on day 1. Obviously, if the movie garners good reviews from the critics and manages to impress the audience during the morning shows then the collections could go up to Rs 4 or 4.5 crore on day 1.
This isn't the first time that Pari and Sidharth are sharing the screen space. The duo was first seen together in Karan Johar and Anurag Kashyap's production venture Hasee Toh Phasee. The film released back in 2014 and did fairly good business at the box office. As per BollywoodHungama, the rom-com had minted Rs 37.4 crore in India before exiting the theatres. In fact, Hasee To Phasee had earned Rs 4.65 crore on its first day. But it's very much unlikely that Jabariya Jodi will break that opening day record.

The trailer of Jabariya Jodi, which released not too long ago, had received a lukewarm response on social media. And the music, which is said to be the soul of a film, hasn't packed a solid punch either. Considering all these factors, if Jabariya Jodi takes an opening of Rs 3 crore then it will be will good news for the team. However, we can't say the same about the long run.
