Here is the latest breakdown of the film's performance as it completes 11 days in theaters.
The Global Century: ₹100.10 Crore 🌍
The Milestone: The makers (Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment) officially announced that the film grossed ₹100.10 Crore globally by the end of its second weekend.
Vishal Bhardwaj's Biggest: This officially makes O' Romeo director Vishal Bhardwaj's highest-grossing film of all time, surpassing the lifetime global collection of his 2014 masterpiece, Haider (₹91.7 Crore).
Shahid's Top 6: The film has now become Shahid Kapoor’s 6th highest-grossing film worldwide, sitting just behind hits like Padmaavat, Kabir Singh, and Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya.
Domestic Box Office: Crossing ₹50 Crore 🇮🇳
While the global numbers look robust thanks to the overseas market (approx. ₹23.50 Crore), the domestic run has been a slower climb.
India Net Collection: The film officially crossed the ₹50 Crore nett mark in India on its second Monday (Day 11), standing at approximately ₹50.75 Crore.
The Second Week Drop: After a steady second weekend, Monday collections saw a sharp drop (earning around ₹1.25–₹1.65 Crore). Trade analysts suggest that the massive 3-hour runtime (178 minutes) and the 'A' (Adults Only) certificate might be restricting its mass family appeal during the weekdays.
The Road Ahead 🛣️
The "BOGO" Push: To maintain momentum, the makers have introduced "Buy One Get One" ticket offers to attract the youth and college-going crowd during the weekdays.
Upcoming Competition: The film has a relatively open window to push toward a ₹60 Crore domestic lifetime until this Friday (Feb 27). However, the release of the highly anticipated and controversial The Kerala Story 2 this weekend is expected to take over a massive chunk of screens.
SantaBanta Verdict:
O' Romeo isn't a runaway commercial blockbuster, but hitting ₹100 Crores globally for a dark, violent, and poetic Vishal Bhardwaj film is a solid victory. It proves that the Shahid-Vishal combo still carries a lot of goodwill with audiences!
