Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor's Street Dancer 3D may have opened to a mixed response from the critics, it seems the reviews haven't been able to hamper its commercial prospects one bit. Given this was a franchise that progressed towards its third part, the excitement was palpable.
Another reason why the film has been able to find an audience is that it released on the Republic Day weekend, the lucky charm of Bollywood films. Taking to his Twitter account, Taran Adarsh wrote how the film put up a healthy weekend total and saw an upswing on Day 3.
