Parineeti Chopra and Sidharth Malhotra's second film together, Jabariya Jodi, has finally hit the screens today. And while the rom-com is a solo release, the latest buzz regarding the movie's performance isn't good news. Directed by Prashant Singh and co-produced by Ekta Kapoor, Shobha Kapoor, and Shailesh R Singh, Jabariya Jodi revolves around the concept of groom kidnapping, which is still prevalent in some parts of northern India. However, it's a light-hearted drama and also features Javed Jaffrey, Sanjay Mishra Aparshakti Khurana, and Chandan Roy Sanyal in pivotal roles. Box Office Prediction: Parineeti Chopra and Sidharth Malhotra's Jabariya Jodi To Witness an Average Opening at the Ticket Windows? Find Out!

Coming to the movie's performance, according to Boxofficeindia.com, Jabariya Jodi is off to a poor start as it witnessed merely 8 to 10 % occupancy during the morning shows across India. If the film does better during the evening and night shows then there is a possibility that the rom-com will put up a decent first-day figure. Or else it won't be surprising if Pari and Sid's latest offering ears around Rs 2 crore on day 1.

The BOI report has stated, "Jabariya Jodi had a poor opening of 8-10% and with a shortened week it's unlikely the film can go far from here. The film was in a fix when the makers postponed the film by a week as it gave a sign that the makers were not confident of a long run and just wanted a weekend with limited competition to do the best they can." Parineeti Chopra’s Style File for Jabariya Jodi Promotions Just Made Us Run Out of Words for ‘BORING!’ (View Pics)

Last week, it was Sonakshi Sinha's Khandaani Shafakhana which failed to get cash registers ringing at the Indian box office. And it looks like Jabariya Jodi is pretty much walking down the same path as of now.
