Homebound Box Office collection Day 2: Filmmaker Neeraj Ghaywan's Homebound's Box Office collection does not seem to match the anticipation viewers had ahead of its release. Starring Ishaan Khatter, Vishal Jethwa and Janhvi Kapoor, the movie witnessed a low turnout in theatres.
Homebound minted a total of ₹58 lakhs, India net, as per the early estimates by industry tracker Sacnilk, on Day 2, Saturday.
On Day 2, the Ishaan Khatter, Vishal Jethwa and Janhvi Kapoor starrer movie minted ₹28 lakhs – a figure lower than the opening day's earnings.
On Thursday, which was the opening day, Homebound collected only ₹30 lakhs
Although Saturday marks just the second day of the movie's screening, its earnings are staggeringly low as compared to the earnings of previous movies by the same actors.
Khatter and Kapoor's debut film, Dhadak, earned ₹8.71 crore on its release day, while Jethwa's Salaam Venky had opened at ₹45 lakh on day 1 of its release.
Inspired by journalist Basharat Peer’s article in The New York Times, titled ‘Taking Amrit Home,’ the Homebound movie explores the friendship of two young men, Chandan (Vishal Jethwa) and Shoaib (Khatter), in North India, whose shared dream of joining the police force is challenged by societal prejudice based on their caste and religion.
Homebound will be streaming on Netflix, as confirmed through the OTT platform's newly released posters.
However, there is no official date for when Homebound will stream on Netflix.
According to multiple reports, Homebound is likely to be released around November 2025, as per the standard eight-week window between cinema and streaming, as noted by OTTplay.
Mint's review of Homebound states that the Ishaan Khatter, Janhvi Kapoor starrer might be a little too diligent in its chronicling of injustice. Although not a harsh film, the way one piece of bad luck that follows another makes it relentlessly sad.
