Harshvardhan Rane and Sonam Bajwa’s romantic journey in Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat is making waves at the box office, exceeding expectations and setting new standards for mid-budget films. In just its first five days, the film has raked in an impressive ₹35 crore nett, outpacing the re-release of Sanam Teri Kasam in record time.
After a strong start during the festive season, the movie has managed to keep its momentum going, even with the typical post-Diwali dip. With a Saturday collection of ₹6.50 crore, this youth-focused romantic drama has shown great audience retention in both multiplexes and single screens. Interestingly, its limited initial release has actually worked to its advantage, as the film is now expanding into more theaters across the Hindi belt, thanks to the growing buzz and positive word-of-mouth.
Industry insiders attribute the film’s success to its hit music album, which has really resonated with younger viewers. Tracks like Tere Ishq Mein Deewana and Raat Bhar have gone viral on social media, boosting the film’s popularity online. The on-screen chemistry between Harshvardhan Rane and Sonam Bajwa, along with the film’s heartfelt storytelling, has turned it into an unexpected favorite among audiences.
With a five-day total of ₹35 crore, the film is now among the top romantic dramas of the year. Trade analysts predict it will easily surpass ₹50 crore by the end of its extended first week, with a potential lifetime gross reaching up to ₹70 crore.
