Tu Yaa Main Struggles at Box Office on Day 1

Tu Yaa Main had a slow start at the Indian box office on its opening day. The survival thriller starring Shanaya Kapoor and Adarsh Gourav, and directed by Bejoy Nambiar, earned around ₹55–57 lakh nett on Friday, according to early estimates by Sacnilk.com. With 1,239 shows and an average occupancy of just 6%, the film failed to cross the ₹1 crore mark.

Despite the weak opening, Tu Yaa Main managed to outperform the lead actors’ previous releases. Shanaya Kapoor’s 2025 romantic drama Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan collected about ₹30 lakh on day one, while Adarsh Gourav’s Superboys of Malegaon earned roughly ₹50 lakh at its opening.

The film has received mixed-to-positive critical feedback, with praise for Adarsh Gourav’s performance and the film’s attempt at a gritty survival thriller. Whether word of mouth can boost its weekend numbers remains to be seen.

Ranveer Singh’s ‘Dhurandhar’ Smashes Box Office Records

Ranveer Singh’s most anticipated film, Dhurandhar, released on December 5, 2025, and has already taken the box office by storm. The film had an explosive opening, earning ₹27 crore on the first day alone, surpassing major hits like Chhawa (₹31 crore) and War 2 (₹29 crore) to become the third-biggest opening day film in recent times. The second day has seen even higher collections, with the film earning an additional ₹6.9 crore by 3:05 PM, bringing the total domestic collection to ₹33.9 crore.

Worldwide, Dhurandhar is performing exceptionally well. The movie earned ₹27 crore in India and ₹13 crore overseas on the opening day, taking the global total to ₹40 crore. With ongoing collections, the film has already crossed the ₹50 crore mark.

Industry experts predict a massive run for the film, backed by its strong IMDb rating of 7.8, stellar performances from Ranveer Singh, R. Madhavan, Akshay Khanna, Arjun Rampal, and Sanjay Dutt, and positive word-of-mouth publicity.
