Box Office Collection (February 25, 2026): O’Romeo Leads as Assi and Do Deewane Seher Mein Struggle on Wednesday
The mid-week box office battle on Wednesday (February 25) saw contrasting fortunes for three Hindi releases — O Romeo, Assi, and Do Deewane Seher Mein. While Shahid Kapoor’s gangster drama continued to hold steady in its second week, the newer releases struggled to build momentum.
According to industry tracker Sacnilk, O’Romeo outperformed both Assi and Do Deewane Seher Mein on Wednesday.
Let’s take a detailed look at how each film performed.
🎬 Assi Box Office Collection (Day 6)
Starring Taapsee Pannu and Kani Kusruti, Assi is a courtroom drama directed by Anubhav Sinha.
- Day 6 (First Wednesday): ₹0.55 crore
- Total India Collection: ₹6.30 crore
Despite positive word-of-mouth in select urban centres, the film has struggled to translate critical appreciation into strong box office numbers. The courtroom drama genre, combined with limited mass appeal, appears to have impacted its commercial performance.
The film also features veteran actors like Naseeruddin Shah and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub in key roles.
🎬 Do Deewane Seher Mein Box Office Collection (Day 6)
The romantic drama starring Mrunal Thakur and Siddhant Chaturvedi opened on February 20, 2026.
Day-wise Collection:
- Day 1: ₹1.25 crore
- Day 2: ₹1.50 crore
- Day 3: ₹1.45 crore
- Day 4 (Monday): ₹0.60 crore
- Day 5: ₹0.55 crore
- Day 6 (Wednesday): ₹0.40 crore
- Total India Collection: ₹5.75 crore
After a modest opening weekend, the film witnessed a sharp weekday drop. The declining footfall suggests that audience interest has not sustained beyond the initial curiosity factor. Competition from O’Romeo and limited promotional buzz may have contributed to the slowdown.
🎬 O’Romeo Box Office Collection (Day 13)
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj, O’Romeo stars Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri in lead roles.
Released during Valentine’s week, the gangster romantic drama opened strongly:
- Day 1: ₹8.5 crore
- Day 2: ₹12.65 crore
- First Week Total: ₹47.1 crore
- Day 13 (Second Wednesday): ₹1.20 crore
- Total India Collection: ₹60.25 crore
Despite entering its second week, O’Romeo continues to outperform newer releases. Although collections have slowed compared to its opening weekend, the film has shown steady hold in urban multiplex circuits.
Crossing ₹60 crore puts the film in a comfortable position, and it now eyes a potential ₹70–75 crore lifetime finish, depending on weekend growth.
📊 Wednesday Box Office Comparison (February 25)
| Film | Wednesday Collection | Total India Collection |
|---|---|---|
| O’Romeo | ₹1.20 crore | ₹60.25 crore |
| Assi | ₹0.55 crore | ₹6.30 crore |
| Do Deewane Seher Mein | ₹0.40 crore | ₹5.75 crore |
📌 Box Office Analysis
- O’Romeo benefits from strong opening momentum and wider mass appeal.
- Assi and Do Deewane Seher Mein are facing weekday dips typical of content-driven or mid-budget films.
- The lack of a major holiday boost and strong competition has impacted collections.
With the weekend approaching, all three films will look to improve numbers. However, at present, O’Romeo clearly leads the mid-week box office race.
