Day 15 Report: O Romeo’s Box Office Journey Hits a Pause, Future Collections Depend on Weekend Boost

The romantic action thriller O Romeo, directed by Vishal Bhardwaj and starring Shahid Kapoor alongside Triptii Dimri, is facing a slowdown at the box office. Despite an energetic opening week, the film’s second Friday (Day 15) saw reduced occupancy and weaker collections, signaling fading audience interest.

Key Highlights

• Collections So Far: The film has crossed the ₹60 crore mark in India by Day 15.
• Second Week Dip: Occupancy and earnings dropped significantly, with the film struggling to cross ₹65–75 crore overall.
• Audience Response: Mixed reviews and stiff competition from other releases have impacted its momentum.
• Star Power: Shahid Kapoor’s performance and Triptii Dimri’s fresh pairing initially drew crowds, but sustaining footfalls has been challenging.
• Future Outlook: The film’s ability to cross the ₹75 crore benchmark now depends on weekend collections and word-of-mouth traction.

While O Romeo showcased promise in its early run, the slowdown highlights the volatility of box office success, especially in a competitive release window.
