Fri Dec 27 00:52:01 UTC 2024: ## Varun Dhawan’s “Bhediya” Sees Disappointing Box Office Numbers on Day 2; Other News in Brief
**Mumbai, India** – Varun Dhawan’s latest action thriller, “Bhediya,” experienced a significant drop in box office collections on its second day. After a promising opening day gross of ₹11.25 crore, the film only managed to rake in ₹1.82 crore on December 26th, bringing its total to ₹13.07 crore. This underwhelming performance follows mixed reviews from critics and audiences and faces stiff competition from Allu Arjun’s “Pushpa 2,” which continues its strong run at the box office. While “Bhediya’s” opening day marked Varun Dhawan’s highest opening in the last five years, the film’s continued success remains uncertain.
