Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri Box Office: Kartik Aaryan-starrer Scores Low First Weekend

Mumbai, December 29 - In the year where romantic films made the most at the box office, Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Pandey-starrer Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri seems to be going the opposite direction after the low opening weekend at the domestic box office. Directed by Sameer Vidwans, TMMTMTTM was originally scheduled to release in February 2026, before the makers moved the release date up twice, but the move didn't work due to poor reviews and competition with Dhurandhar and Avatar: Fire and Ash, which have dominated the month so far. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) TMMTMTTM opened in the 7-8 crores net range, that too on Christmas day and after the alleged feeding. The opening itself suggested the muted interest of moviegoers, and poor reviews further made its life difficult at the box office, as the movie remained flat throughout the opening weekend. As per estimates, the romantic comedy scored 23-24 crores in net collection over its 4-day opening weekend, one of the lowest for a Bollywood title featuring notable actors. With the debut itself on the lower side, the film will need a miracle to sustain, even on the lower side, as word of mouth doesn't seem to be in favour of it. Stay tuned...

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri Box Office: Goes Down on Day 2 After Poor Opening

Mumbai, December 27 - Dharma Productions and Namah Pictures' romantic-comedy Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri went down on the second day. Of course, the drop was expected since it had a Christmas release, but the opening itself was not-so-good with 7-8 crores net. Starring Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Pandey, TMMTMTTM failed to generate pre-release buzz, which was clearly visible in pre-sales (despite the sales being better than many other films, and you know the reason). The makers were still hopeful that the film's biz would pick up on Christmas Day, which didn't happen due to poor reviews and word of mouth. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The Sameer Vidwans' directorial, after failing to take a respectable start, went down by 30% to score 5-5.50 crores net on the second day, Friday, pushing total net collection to around 13 crores in 2 days. The film might pick up on Saturday and Sunday, but it will be hard for it to sustain beyond that because of the seemingly poor word of mouth. At the worldwide box office, TMMTMTTM has grossed around 19 crores. The film needs to score over 100 crores to be deemed successful, but it will be an uphill task for it reach there. It has been one of the weakest Christmas releases, and came up against Dhurandhar and Avatar 3, which have dominated the overall biz. The movie could still have performed had the content been good, but it didn't make any impact. Stay tuned...

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri Box Office: Dharma Productions' Rom-Com Off To A Poor Start

Mumbai, December 26 - Dharma Productions' romantic comedy Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, featuring Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Pandey, had a poor opening day at the domestic box office, falling well short of a double-digit opening. Released on a national holiday of Christmas, TMMTMTTM collected 7-8 crores net on day 1. The real collection, however, is even lower, as there are allegations of feeding. Despite the external push, the movie failed to take a respectable opening. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) TMMTMTTM was always going to struggle due to the lack of buzz and the domination of Dhurandhar and Avatar 3, which are clearly the first two choices of moviegoers at the moment. The opening of Kartik Aaryan's starrer could have been slightly better had the word of mouth been positive, but that doesn't seem to be the case. It can be said that there is no way forward for the rom-com, as neither word of mouth seems to be proving, nor are the holdover films stopping anytime soon. The film was originally planned for a February 2026 release before the makers moved it up a couple of times; however, these plans often fail if the content is weak. Stay tuned...

Mumbai, September 14 – Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday's much-awaited romantic comedy drama Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri has undergone another release date shift after movie up from the New Year's Eve release. The movie was originally scheduled for its February 13, 2026, debut. On Monday, the makers announced that the TMMTMTTM will come early as it has been confirmed to hit the big screens on December 25, on the occasion of Christmas 2025, after Yash Raj Films' Alpha was postponed to April 2026.

Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol's Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge: 30 Years of Romance, Culture, and Legacy

Mumbai, October 20 — Three decades ago, on this very day in 1995, a young filmmaker named Aditya Chopra changed the course of Indian cinema with his directorial debut Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. Starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, the film wasn't just another romantic drama; it became an emotion, a cultural milestone, and a cinematic legacy that continues to live in the hearts of millions around the world, not just in India. DDLJ brought with it a refreshing take on love and family values. It told the story of Raj (SRK) and Simran (Kajol), two young Indians raised abroad who fall in love on a European trip, only to find their bond tested by tradition and parental expectations. In an era when Bollywood romances often rebelled against family authority, DDLJ stood out because it embraced it, which the audience loved and resonated with. Indian Cinema Prepares For Its Most Ambitious Line-up Yet With Ramayana, Varanasi, King, and More Aditya Chopra's vision struck a delicate balance — celebrating youthful passion while respecting the sanctity of family and culture. That combination gave Indian audiences something deeply familiar yet beautifully modern. The film's setting, moving from the train rides across Europe to the mustard fields of Punjab, gave it an expansive visual appeal. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Cinematographer Manmohan Singh's lens captured a fairytale world that felt both aspirational and comforting. It was a love story that spoke not just to Indians at home, but also to the diaspora who longed for a connection to their roots. Jatin-Lalit's timeless music, Anand Bakshi's poetic lyrics, and the unforgettable voices of Lata Mangeshkar, Kumar Sanu, and Udit Narayan. Songs like "Tujhe Dekha To," "Mehndi Laga Ke Rakhna," and "Ruk Ja O Dil Deewane" became anthems of love and celebration. Even today, they play at weddings, bringing generations together in nostalgia and joy. Aneet Padda's Shakti Shalini To Be The Most Important Film of MHCU, Amar Kaushik Reveals Reason But perhaps what made DDLJ truly iconic was the chemistry between Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol. Their charm, innocence, and authenticity transformed Raj and Simran into symbols of ideal love. Shah Rukh's playful confidence and Kajol's grace created moments that felt effortlessly real — from the laughter of the Europe trip to the emotional intensity of the film's climax. The final train scene, with Raj's outstretched hand and Simran's desperate run, remains one of Indian cinema's most unforgettable moments. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) As DDLJ turns 30, it holds a record few films can claim. The movie continues to run at Mumbai's Maratha Mandir theatre, maintaining its status as the longest-running film in Indian history. For many, watching it there isn't just about nostalgia — it's a ritual, a connection to a simpler, more romantic era of Bollywood. Ideas of love, freedom, and family have evolved, and today's romances often explore different kinds of relationships. Yet, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge endures because its heart remains pure. It speaks of love that is patient, love that seeks acceptance, and love that triumphs through respect and understanding. It wasn't just a film; it was a moment in time that defined how a generation dreamed of love. Kartik Aaryan, Ananya Pandey's Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri Teaser Sets Viewership Record For A Rom-Com Three decades later, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge stands not merely as a classic but as a cultural phenomenon that redefined Bollywood romance. It gave us a new definition of love — one that bridges continents, generations, and emotions. As audiences revisit Raj and Simran's journey today, they're not just watching a film; they're reliving a feeling — one that reminds us that no matter how much the world changes, love, at its purest, never goes out of style.
