In 2013, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani made its debut on domestic theaters. Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone played the lead roles in the coming-of-age romantic comedy-drama, which was directed by Ayan Mukerji. The 2013 blockbuster continues to earn love from the crowd and has received a cult status among the cinephiles. With the film’s re-release in theaters, viewers are excited to revisit Bunny and Naina’s endearing romance, which is filled with their lovely relationship with Avi and Aditi.

Twelve years after its initial release, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani returned to theaters on January 3, 2025, supported by Dharma Productions. On its first day, the movie made an amazing Rs 1.25 crore. On the second day of its re-release, the Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone film brought in Rs 2 crore after a successful first showing on a small number of screens.

The total revenue from the re-release of the film directed by Ayan Mukerji is currently Rs 3.25 crore. Given its fan base and opening day attendance, the highly anticipated film, which also stars Aditya Roy Kapur and Kalki Koechlin, is predicted to earn Rs 6 crore throughout its first weekend.

The second-best opening movie for a re-release is now recorded by the film. When Tumbbad returned to theaters in 2024, it topped the charts with the largest opening day haul.

The most pre-sales for a Hindi film re-release this year were registered by Ayan Mukerji’s 2013 film. On its first day, the movie starring Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone sold 25,000 tickets in the top three national chains. Cinepolis and PVR Inox. Of them, 5,000 were recorded from Cinepolis, and 20,000 were from PVR Inox.
