The Dharma Productions-backed romantic drama featuring Lakshya and Ananya Panday has shown moderate momentum at the box office, accumulating over ₹6 crore in its first two days of theatrical release. The film registered an improvement on its second day, offering some relief to distributors following an underwhelming opening.
Industry analysts suggest the weekend ahead will prove crucial for the film's commercial trajectory. With mixed critical reviews greeting its release, the romantic drama faces stiff competition from other releases vying for audience attention across multiplexes in metro cities and smaller towns alike.
The film's performance in single-screen theatres across Bihar and eastern India has been particularly modest, with viewers showing preference for action-oriented fare. Trade experts note that romantic dramas require strong word-of-mouth publicity to sustain momentum beyond the opening weekend, particularly in tier-2 and tier-3 markets where family audiences drive footfalls.
Dharma Productions, known for backing youth-centric romantic films, will be monitoring the film's performance closely over the extended weekend. The production house has historically found success with the genre, though changing audience preferences post-pandemic have made box office predictions increasingly challenging. The coming days will determine whether the film can build on its modest second-day growth or will struggle to recover its production costs.
