Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat Breaks Box Office Records

Harshvardhan Rane and Sonam Bajwa’s Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat continues to impress at the box office as it enters its third week of theatrical run. The film is estimated to collect around ₹1.20 crore on its third Thursday, reflecting only a 25 percent drop from Wednesday's collections. Industry experts say this is a strong hold for a small-budget film, indicating sustained audience interest and positive word-of-mouth.

The movie, directed by Milan Milap Zaveri, has also started outperforming its rival release, Thamma, a significant achievement for a film made on a modest budget. Box office analysts note that this outperformance highlights the film’s ability to connect with its target audience despite competing releases.

Box Office Collections So Far

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat had a promising extended opening week, collecting slightly over ₹55 crore. Its second week added another ₹15 crore to the tally, taking the two-week cumulative total to ₹70.05 crore net at the Indian box office. These numbers are particularly noteworthy given the film’s small scale and relatively low marketing spend compared to bigger commercial releases.

The film’s gradual growth indicates strong audience engagement, with more viewers opting to watch the tragic romantic drama in the second and third weeks. Analysts attribute this to the combination of heartfelt performances by the lead actors, engaging storytelling, and effective promotions that have kept audiences intrigued.

Third Weekend Expectations

Looking ahead, the movie is expected to hold its ground in the third weekend, even against stiff competition from Emraan Hashmi and Yami Gautam’s HAQ. Box office trackers are optimistic that the film’s consistent performance could help it reach a lifetime target of ₹80 crore net—a remarkable figure for a small-budget production.

Film pundits suggest that such endurance at the box office is a result of the film’s emotional connection with audiences, its strong narrative, and positive critical reception. The word-of-mouth factor seems to be driving more family audiences and youth viewers to theaters in the later weeks of release.

On the Verge of Super HIT Status

With its cumulative collections crossing the ₹70 crore mark, Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat has already been declared a HIT. Now, with strong weekend expectations and steady weekday collections, the film is on the verge of attaining a Super HIT status. This achievement not only enhances the film’s commercial reputation but also adds a feather in the cap for Milan Milap Zaveri as a director.

Industry insiders are now closely watching Milap Zaveri’s next directorial, Mastii 4, which is slated for release on November 21. Given the success of Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat, expectations are high for the upcoming film, with fans eager to see whether Milap Zaveri can replicate his box office success.

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat’s journey at the box office is being hailed as a case study in how a small-budget film can perform consistently and even outperform bigger releases when it resonates with audiences. With its trajectory pointing toward ₹80 crore net, the tragic romantic drama is not just a commercial success but also a testament to the power of strong performances, compelling storytelling, and positive audience engagement.
