Starring Varun Dhawan, Mrunal Thakur, and Pooja Hegde, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai hit theatres on June 5 but has received a lukewarm response from audiences. While some social media users have labelled the film 'cringe,' others have criticised its outdated humour and jokes. The film's box office performance has also been underwhelming. After opening to a decent Rs 7.50 crore, it witnessed a drop on its second day.Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona

Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai Review
The Free Press Journal reviewer gave 2 stars to Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai and wrote, "Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai has all the ingredients of a typical David Dhawan entertainer, but very little of the magic. The story is predictable, many jokes feel rehearsed, and several punchlines fail to land. While a few comic scenes in the second half manage to bring genuine laughs, they aren't enough to save the film."
All eyes are now on the film's first Sunday collections, which will be crucial in determining whether it can recover from its slow start. A strong Sunday performance could help improve its opening weekend total, while another underwhelming day may make it difficult for the film to sustain itself in the coming week.
