O Romeo Box Office Collection Day : The recent mega-screen appearance of Shahid Kapoor is demonstrating that even with a mixed word of mouth decent openings are still capable of sending a film through. Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj and starring Shahid Kapoor with Triptii Dimri, O Romeo has already gone past the Rs 67 crore mark in the worldwide box office in the initial week even with declining weekday collections.
Although the audience response is still split, the figures indicate that the inquisitive and star power are carrying the movie along.
Day 6 Collection: Noticeable Drop, But Holding Ground
Following a strong weekend performance, the movie underwent the conventional Monday hangover then an even more pronounced decline during mid week.
Day 6 (Wednesday) Collection: Rs 3.5 crore
Domestic Total So Far: Rs 43.85 crore
Worldwide Gross: Rs 67.15 crore
The decline suggests that the occupancy on weekdays has been weakening, especially the urban multiplex circuits. The initial three days of the film however gave a good cushion.
Day-Wise Box Office Breakdown
- Day 1 (Friday): Rs 8.5 crore
- Day 2 (Saturday): Rs 12.65 crore
- Day 3 (Sunday): Rs 9.00 crore
- Day 4 (Monday): Rs 4.85 crore
- Day 5 (Tuesday): Rs 5.35 crore
- Day 6 (Wednesday): Rs 3.5 crore
- Day 7 (Thursday): Figures awaited
Total (India Nett): Rs 43.85 crore
Worldwide Gross: Rs 67.15 crore
The weekend jump followed by weekday decline reflects a front-loaded pattern — typical of star-driven romantic thrillers.
Why the Film Opened Strong
Several factors contributed to the solid start:
- Shahid Kapoor’s established box office pull.
- Vishal Bhardwaj’s brand of intense storytelling.
- Strong pre-release buzz and music appeal.
- Strategic Valentine’s week release timing.
The romantic revenge drama angle attracted youth audiences during the first three days, pushing collections into double digits on Saturday.
Why the Numbers Slowed Down
Despite the hype, audience response has been mixed. Some viewers praised the stylized visuals and performances, while others felt the screenplay lacked emotional depth.
Mid-week drops suggest that word-of-mouth has not been overwhelmingly positive. In today’s theatrical climate, sustainability depends heavily on audience reviews beyond opening weekend.
Can It Enter the Rs 100 Crore Club?
The following weekend will be the decisive one. When the movie demonstrates a decent jump on its second weekend and Sunday, it will easily hit the 7580 crore mark in the world.
Reaching Rs 100 crore worldwide is still possible, but it will require:
- Stable weekday collections
- Minimal competition from new releases
- Strong overseas support
Given its current trajectory, the film appears likely to settle in the moderate-hit zone rather than becoming a blockbuster.
About the Film
Under the direction of Vishal Bhardwaj, O’ Romeo has Shahid Kapoor as Ustara and Triptii Dimri as Afsha Qureshi. Nana Patekar, Avinash Tiwary, Tamannaah Bhatia, Disha Patani, Farida Jalal and Vikrant Massey are among the supporting cast.
The movie is based on the themes written by Hussain Zaidi in his literary work about the backdrop of the underworld, Mumbai and incorporates elements of romance and crime drama.
Final Analysis
Although there was an obvious mid-week decline, the fact that the company crossed the barrier of Rs 67 crore globally in six days is a good indication that the company is starting well. This weekend will tell whether O’ Romeo will stabilize or keep on its downwards trend.
At the moment, the newest movie of Shahid Kapoor is in the list of the most discussed Hindi movies in the box office this week.
