Dibakar Banerjee’s highly awaited sequel, Love Sex Aur Dhokha 2, made a slow and lackluster start at the box office. Serving as a follow-up to the 2010 film starring Rajkummar Rao and Nushrratt Bharuccha, LSD 2 features Paritosh Tiwari, Bonita Rajpurohit, and Abhinav Singh in pivotal roles. However, despite the anticipation surrounding its release, the film failed to garner significant audience attention in its initial days.
Love Sex Aur Dhokha 2 Box Office Collections
Love Sex Aur Dhokha 2 struggled to attract audiences to theaters, managing to rake in a mere Rs 15 lakhs on its opening day. The following day saw a further dip in earnings, with early estimates suggesting a collection of around Rs 12 lakhs on Saturday. As a result, the film’s total estimated collection stood at Rs 27 lakhs over two days, according to Sacnilk.
With an overall Hindi occupancy of 5.56% on Saturday, April 20, LSD 2 faced an uphill battle at the box office. As per reports from Sacnilk, the third day saw the film amassing Rs 7 lakhs in earnings so far. However, it is projected to continue underperforming on Sunday, struggling to surpass the Rs 35 lakhs mark for the weekend.
LSD2 Plot and Cast
Dibakar Banerjee shed light on the themes explored in LSD 2, emphasizing the idea of living with contradictory truths in the modern world. He remarked, “I think what we are saying is that we are living with two or three contradictory truths at the same time. Every moment of us. We are not living one truth, we are living the truth of our physical lives; we are living the absolute, indelible truth of our virtual avatars; we are living the truth of our Instagram feeds. All of them are truths!”
The film delves into the lives of three individuals—Kulu (Bonita Rajpurohit), Game Paapi (Abhinav Singh), and Noor (Paritosh)—whose interconnected stories navigate the complexities of a generation consumed by social media and the internet. Produced by Ekta Kapoor, Love Sex Aur Dhokha 2 explores contemporary themes and societal dynamics in a digital age.
