Valentine’s romance can light up the box office, but keeping the spark alive in week two is the real challenge — and O Romeo is feeling that pressure right now. Vishal Bhardwaj’s stylish action-romance starring Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri had a fantastic first week, crossing big numbers thanks to couples and strong word-of-mouth.
Now on day 8 (Friday, February 20, 2026), O Romeo box office collection day 8 shows a clear slowdown as new releases like Do Deewane Seher Mein pull some crowds away. Still, the film sits comfortably as one of 2026’s top Bollywood openers so far. Here’s the latest on O Romeo box office collection day 8 and how it’s holding up.

Other sources place the 8-day figure between ₹48.35 crore and ₹49.35 crore, but the high-end numbers are trending in trade discussions.

Key Highlights from O Romeo Box Office Collection Day 8
- Occupancy on Day 8: Average Hindi occupancy stood at 8.67%, with night shows doing best at 12.31%. Not massive, but decent for a Friday in week two.
- Worldwide Gross: The film has now crossed approximately ₹75.80 crore globally — a solid number for its scale.
- Big Milestone: Despite the dip, O Romeo holds the second-highest opening week of 2026 in Bollywood so far, only behind Border 2.
The Valentine’s boost on day 2 was the game-changer, giving it a massive push early on. Now, with fresh competition in theaters, the film needs strong weekend holds and positive buzz to keep climbing.
It’s still a respectable run for a mid-to-high budget entertainer blending romance, action, and Bhardwaj’s signature touch. Shahid’s performance and the chemistry with Triptii are getting plenty of praise online, which could help in the days ahead.
