The Valentine’s Week box office face‑off between two new bollywood films — O'Romeo starring Shahid Kapoor and Tu Yaa Main featuring Shanaya Kapoor and Adarsh Gourav — has produced a clear early winner at the indian box office.
After four days in theatres:
- O’Romeo has grossed over ₹34 crore domestically (approx. ₹34.9 crore nett), maintaining a lead over its rival despite a typical weekday dip.
- In contrast, Tu Yaa Main has earned only around ₹3.2 crore in total through its first four days, with very low daily takings on Monday.
This performance gap illustrates a significant early box office advantage for the shahid Kapoor–led film in its opening week.
📊 O’Romeo — Weekend Strength and Weekday Test
🆙 Strong Opening Weekend
O’Romeo started well at the box office, racking up double‑digit figures on saturday and healthy earnings on Sunday, bringing its 3‑day total past ₹30 crore.
It managed approximately:
- ₹8.5 crore on Day 1
- ₹12.65 crore on Day 2
- ₹9 crore on Day 3
- ₹4.75 crore on Day 4 (Monday)
The monday figure shows a typical dip — common for films after the weekend — but the total put O’Romeo close to the ₹35 crore mark domestically after four days.
👨🎤 What It Means for shahid Kapoor
This performance makes O’Romeo one of Shahid Kapoor’s stronger box office runs in recent years, particularly compared with his last two films, which saw mixed box office results.
According to trade trackers, O’Romeo even outperformed some of his immediate predecessors on their first monday, highlighting decent hold and interest among audiences.
📉 Tu Yaa Main — Struggling to Connect
Meanwhile, Tu Yaa Main — a survival‑thriller starring Shanaya Kapoor and adarsh gourav — has struggled to draw crowds, with total box office earnings well under ₹5 crore by Day 4.
Despite expectations and a notable cast, the film has not resonated with audiences in theatres, and its low collections reflect poor footfall and occupancy so far.
📆 Weekday Impact and Upcoming Competition
The box office usually experiences a downturn on Mondays as most audiences return to work, and both films faced this monday test. However:
- O’Romeo retained a reasonable hold, suggesting some sustained interest beyond the weekend crowd.
- Tu Yaa Main remained weak in weekday performance, indicating it may struggle to increase momentum as the week progresses.
Additionally, new releases later in the week (e.g., Assi and Do Deewane Seher Mein) are expected to split audience attention further, potentially limiting both films’ theatrical runs.
🍿 What the Numbers Suggest
O’Romeo’s early box office trajectory shows:
- A solid opening weekend
- Good performance relative to recent first Mondays for comparable releases
- A growing total nearing ₹35 crore domestically after Day 4 — noteworthy for a film with modest pre‑release buzz.
In contrast, Tu Yaa Main’s box office signals indicate:
- A significantly slower start
- Limited audience turnout
- Lower overall momentum than its contemporaries in the current bollywood slate.
📌 Final Take
In the O’Romeo vs Tu Yaa Main box office clash so far:
- O’Romeo is the clear early leader, comfortably surpassing ₹34 crore in its first four days.
- Tu Yaa Main remains far behind, reflecting audience preference for the shahid Kapoor–led film in this Valentine’s week release window.
Moving forward, weekday performance and upcoming competition at the multiplexes will play a key role in shaping their final box office stories.
