Do Deewane Seher Mein Wraps Up Theatrical Run With Rs 7 Crore Box Office
The romantic drama Do Deewane Seher Mein, directed by Ravi Udyawar and starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Mrunal Thakur, is now nearing the end of its theatrical journey. Backed by Bhansali Productions, the film opened to a modest Rs 1.20 crore and collected around Rs 5.60 crore nett in its first week.
The film’s second week saw a sharp decline, adding just Rs 1 crore, marking an 82% drop from the opening. In its third weekend, it contributed another Rs 25 lakh, bringing the 17-day cumulative total to approximately Rs 6.85 crore nett at the Indian box office.
With just a few days left in cinemas, the film is expected to close its theatrical run around Rs 7 crore nett. Despite positive word-of-mouth, the movie struggled to gain traction on the big screen, highlighting the challenges mid-sized films face in today’s market. Many industry experts note that audience habits have changed post-pandemic, with viewers now more willing to wait for digital releases rather than rush to theaters.
