The Varun Dhawan starrer opened to a decent collection on Christmas but failed to impress the audience on the following day.

With just a day left for the release of Baby John, here's quick look at what worked in its Tamil original, Theri, what needs to work in the Varun Dhawan film, and a lot more

With the release of ’Baby John’ on the silver screen, Thalapathy Viajy’s fans are anxious to know how they can connect with ’Theri’ and what would be the similarities between the two movies.

Directed by Kalees, Baby John is inspired by Atlee's Theri featuring Thalapathy Vijay, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Amy Jackson and others. The Hindi film also stars Jackie Shroff, Keerthy Suresh, Wamiqa Gabbi,

While Varun Dhawan plays the role of a cop for the second time onscreen in Baby John, the movie also features Jackie in the role of a lead antagonist. The trailer of the film received a decent response and fans have been eagerly waiting for Varun's first big screen release of 2024.

The Varun Dhawan-starrer Baby John was supposed to be a Christmas treat for all his fans, and the film is trying to hold steady at the box office despite tough competition from Allu Arjun’s mega Pushpa 2: The Rule.

Baby John featuring Varun Dhawan, Keerthy Suresh, Wamiqa Gabbi and more, was released on Christmas Day. While the film presented by Atlee was mounted as a massy holiday entertainer, the box office reports are rather lukewarm.

Despite getting the push from being a Christmas holiday release, Varun Dhawan’s Baby John had a decent opening day collection at the box office. The Kalees directorial's performance was mostly hit by the continued dominance of Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2 and the clash with Disney's Mufasa: The Lion King.

Varun Dhawan's film 'Baby John' had a lukewarm opening on Christmas Day with Rs 12.5 crore. 'Pushpa 2: The Rule' earned Rs 19.75 crore on its 21st day. The Kannada film 'Max' earned Rs 10 crore on its first day and became the highest opening for a Kannada film in 2024.
