O Romeo Box Office Collection Day 2: Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor's latest outing, O Romeo, has picked up pace at the box office. On Valentine's Day, the film, also starring Triptii Dimri, witnessed about 44.12% growth on Saturday compared to its opening day business. O Romeo opened with ₹8.50 crore net business in India.
On day 2, O Romeo earned ₹12.25 crore net at the Indian box office. The film's India Net Collection now stands at ₹20.75 crore net. Although the film saw an average opening business, it is dubbed to be the biggest opener for Kapoor in recent years.
Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh posted on X: “#ORomeo opened on a slow note, though collections multiplied as the day progressed – particularly during the evening and night shows... Urban centres have performed comparatively better. The film must witness solid growth on Saturday and Sunday to show better weekend results. Valentine's Day is expected to boost Saturday footfalls, but the high-voltage #INDvsPAK cricket match on Sunday evening could dent collections.”
Ahead of the Maha Shivratri holiday, O Romeo saw healthy occupancy in theatres. The film recorded 10.24% occupancy in theatres across India during the morning shows. While afternoon shows were at 22.13% occupancy, the evening shows stood at 26.79%. The footfall in theatres peaked during the night with 33.87% occupancy.

The Live Mint review of O Romeo read: “O’Romeo is decidedly Bhardwaj as mad scientist. Over three chaotic hours, we get gunfights, bullfights, flamenco guitars, item numbers, Kumar Sanu nostalgia, Ganesh Chaturthi, Mumbai gang wars, a masquerade at a Spanish villa, a visit to Kathmandu and a Carnatic classical-singing Marathi cop. It’s all over the place and yet there’s an underlying emotional logic to the whole thing, a web of betrayals and transgressions that binds the three central players.”
