Box Office Report — Full Story

Two new Hindi releases debuted in theaters this Friday, joining ongoing titles already competing for audience attention. Early box office figures indicate a slow start for the newcomers, while an older release continued to dominate weekend earnings.


Assi — Opening Performance

Directed by Anubhav Sinha, the courtroom drama starring Taapsee Pannu released Feb. 20 and recorded a modest opening.
  • Day 1 — ₹1 crore

  • Day 2 — ₹1.60 crore
    Total so far — ₹2.60 crore

Trade analysts note that while the film saw a 60% rise on its second day, its overall numbers remain subdued compared with typical weekend performers.


Do Deewane Shehar Mein — Slight Growth on Day 2

Written by Abhiruchi Chand and directed by Ravi Udyawar, this romantic drama stars Mrunal Thakur and Siddhant Chaturvedi.
  • Day 1 — ₹1.25 crore

  • Day 2 — ₹1.60 crore
    Total — ₹2.85 crore

The film posted a mild day-two improvement, signaling limited but steady audience traction.


O Romeo — Continues to Lead

The romantic action drama directed by Vishal Bhardwaj and starring Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri remains the strongest performer among current releases.

  • Friday — ₹2.15 crore

  • Saturday — ₹3.35 crore
    Total — ₹52.60 crore

The film benefited from weekend footfall after weekday declines, maintaining its position as the top-grossing title currently in theaters.


Tu Ya Main — Struggles Continue

Starring Shanaya Kapoor and Adarsh Gourav, the romantic drama has struggled to gain traction since release.

  • Day 9 — ₹0.38 crore
    Total — ₹5.93 crore

Industry trackers say the film has faced low occupancy rates and limited growth despite the weekend window.


Market Trend Snapshot

  • New releases opened below expectations.

  • Mid-run film O Romeo remains dominant.

  • Audience turnout favors established titles over fresh releases.
