Midweek Struggle: Day 6 and Day 7 Performance

After a strong opening weekend fueled by the Valentine's Day fever, the film witnessed the inevitable weekday slide.

• Day 6 (Wednesday): The film collected approximately Rs 3.50 crore net in India. While this was a dip from Tuesday's Rs 5.35 crore, it indicated a level of stability in urban centers and multiplexes.
• Day 7 (Thursday): Early estimates and morning trends suggest a collection in the range of Rs 3.00 - 3.50 crore. This brings the first-week domestic total to approximately Rs 47 crore.

The overall occupancy on Wednesday hovered around 9%, with late-night shows performing better than morning and afternoon screenings.

Shahid Kapoor’s Winning Streak?

Interestingly, 'O' Romeo' has already outperformed Shahid Kapoor’s previous theatrical release, Deva, which ended its global run at Rs 55.8 crore. It has also surpassed the lifetime earnings of the cult classic Kaminey, officially becoming Shahid's 7th highest-grossing film in India.

Note: The film's success is particularly notable given the clash with Tu Yaa Main (starring Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor) and ongoing competition from Border 2 and Mardaani 3.

The Road Ahead: The Crucial Second Weekend

While the film has "sailed past" the 67 crore mark, the coming weekend is the true litmus test. With no major Hindi releases scheduled for the upcoming Friday, 'O' Romeo' has a clear window to:

1. Hit the Rs 50 crore mark in domestic nett collections by Friday evening.
2. Target the Rs 80-90 crore club worldwide by the end of its second weekend.

The film's gritty narrative—based on Hussain Zaidi's Mafia Queens of Mumbai—and the chemistry between Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri continue to be the primary draws for the audience.
