Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai box office collection day 4: David Dhawan’s romantic comedy film Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, starring Varun Dhawan, Pooja Hegde and Mrunal Thakur, was released in theatres this Friday.
Critics were not taken with the film, nor were audiences, as evidenced by reactions on social media. After a disappointing opening, the film has barely shown any growth at the box office.

About the film
