Romeo's Valentine's Day Box Office: Can it Score Big?

Shahid Kapoor's latest cinematic offering, O' Romeo, premiered today, arriving with moderate pre-release anticipation and steady advance bookings in urban centers. The romantic action drama is strategically positioned for a prosperous Valentine's Day weekend, a period known to boost theatre attendance, particularly among younger demographics and couples.

Advance ticket sales for O' Romeo's opening day are estimated at approximately Rs 3 crore gross, indicating fair audience interest, especially in metropolitan areas where such romantic genres typically perform well. Box office projections place the film's opening day nett collection between Rs 6 and Rs 8 crore, a potentially stronger start than Kapoor's prior release, Deva.

The film's sustained commercial performance will largely depend on audience word-of-mouth. Positive reviews could fuel healthy growth throughout the festive weekend, while mixed reactions might temper its momentum. The release coinciding with Valentine's Day is expected to naturally increase footfalls, with couples likely forming a significant portion of the audience.

O' Romeo also features Triptii Dimri, Nana Patekar, Avinash Tiwary, Vikrant Massey, and Tamannaah Bhatia in key roles. The film's box office journey has commenced amidst decent expectations and the anticipated boost from the Valentine's Day holiday.
