Ishqnama Box Office Crash: 20 Cr Film Fails To Recover Investment
4 Aug
Summary
- Ishqnama's day 11 collection dropped significantly to only 28 lakh.
- The period romantic drama has recovered only 41% of its 20 crore budget.
- Ishqnama needs over 12 crore more to break even and recover investments.
The period romantic drama Ishqnama, starring Shehnaaz Gill and Jai Randhhawa, has seen a significant downturn at the Indian box office. On its second Monday, day 11, the film garnered a mere 28 lakh in collections. This marks a substantial drop from its previous performance, despite minimal competition.
Mounted on a considerable budget of 20 crore, Ishqnama has so far recovered only 41% of its reported investments, totaling 8.18 crore net in India. To become profitable, the film requires an additional 12 crore. Its gross earnings currently stand at 9.65 crore, including GST.
The film is now vying with Ishqan De Lekhe, which collected 11.89 crore in its lifetime. Ishqnama needs to earn 3.71 crore more to surpass this figure and potentially enter the top 3 highest-grossing Punjabi films of 2026. However, its current pace suggests achieving this goal may prove challenging.
