Yash Raj Films’ Bunty Aur Babli 2 hit the cinema halls today. It will be interesting to see how much this affects Sooryavanshi's numbers. The Rani Mukerji, Saif Ali Khan, Siddhant Chaturvedi and Sharvari-starrer, which is the sequel to Bunty Aur Babli (2005), was off to a slow start at the box office in the first half of the day.
