Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat Holds on Day 2, Nears ₹17 Crore in Two Days Despite Thamma Clash

Word of mouth in mass centres is sustaining turnout despite mixed reviews.

Overview

  • Industry tracker Sacnilk pegs day one around ₹8.5–9 crore, while trade analyst Taran Adarsh reports ₹10.10 crore.
  • Day two collections are reported at roughly ₹7.5–7.75 crore, taking the two-day total to about ₹16.5–₹16.75 crore with a drop near 16%.
  • The film opened on roughly 40% of screens versus Thamma yet posted strong occupancy in several Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities.
  • Reviews skew negative on social media and in press, but music and audience curiosity, aided by grassroots promotion such as Harshvardhan Rane selling tickets, boosted footfalls.
  • Trade coverage calls it Rane’s biggest opener to date, and with a modest reported budget in the ₹25–30 crore range, analysts say continued holds could secure breakeven over the extended holiday frame.
