‘Tere Ishq Mein’ Faces Box Office Blow on 8th Day Amid ‘Dhurandhar’ Storm

Dhanush and Kriti Sanon’s ‘Tere Ishq Mein’ has suffered a significant dip at the box office on its eighth day, directly impacted by the blockbuster opening of Ranveer Singh’s spy-action drama ‘Dhurandhar’.

Box Office Performance

Initially strong with Hindi audiences, the romantic drama earned ₹5.8 crore on Thursday, but collections dropped to ₹3.75 crore on Friday, marking a -35.34% decline. Seat occupancy across theaters was 18.44% on the eighth day.

The domestic total now stands at ₹87.40 crore (Hindi: ₹83.25 crore; Tamil: ₹4.15 crore), while worldwide gross has reached ₹118 crore, including ₹14.25 crore from overseas.

100-Crore Club Hopes

With just ₹12.6 crore needed to enter the 100-crore club domestically, the film still has a chance over the weekend, though the competition from ‘Dhurandhar’ could make it challenging.

Critical Reception

Despite mixed reviews, the lead pair’s chemistry and positive word-of-mouth helped maintain weekday footfalls. The real test begins from Monday as the weekday audience may be divided between the two films.

Outlook

While ‘Tere Ishq Mein’ is safe from being labeled a flop, its performance this weekend will determine if it can withstand the ‘Dhurandhar’ storm and achieve its domestic 100-crore milestone.
