The average occupancy rate for the film was 11% through the day, with the morning and afternoon shows bringing in 5.72% and 13.40%, respectively. The evening and night shows did better by a minuscule margin, posting 11.46% and 14.18% occupancy. As mentioned before, the film is already functioning with an obvious handicap in the form of a limited theatrical run. It was initially supposed to release on May 9, but due to Operation Sindoor, the makers announced that they will be releasing the film directly on Prime Video.

Multiplex chain PVR INOX wasted no time in taking legal action against Maddock Films, and the studio ultimately had to agree to the unique two-week theatrical run, which will go on till June 6. This gives the romantic comedy just seven days to rake in the maximum amount of money possible, as the last two days of its run will be affected by two movies. Mani Ratnam’s Thug Life, starring Kamal Hassan, is releasing on June 5, and Housefull 5, starring an ensemble of Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, Sonam Bajwa, Jacqueline Fernandez and Kriti Sanon, will be releasing on June 6.
