'Jab they met': Shahid Kapoor's father-in-law was unimpressed

Mumbai, Dec 24 (IANS) Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor made a shocking revelation about meeting his father-in-law for the first time during his appearance on the 'The Kapil Sharma Show'.





The actor, who is promoting his upcoming film 'Jersey' with actress Mrunal Thakur, said that his wife Mira Rajput's father was unimpressed when he first met his future son-in-law.





Shahid says: "I coloured my hair at that time because in the film ('Udta Punjab'), my character was shown to be a little different. Mira's father wears formal shirts and pants and he has a very neat hairstyle, shaves every morning, like her (Mrunal Thakur) dad."





He continues: "When he saw me for the first time, the look on his face echoed thoughts like, 'who is my daughter marrying!?' 'What kind of a boy is he?' So, now when I go to meet him, I comb my hair properly and his eyes light up with joy."





'The Kapil Sharma Show' airs on Sony Entertainment Television.

O Romeo OTT Release Date: When and Where To Watch Shahid Kapoor's Action Drama Online

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, March 22 – Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor-fronted O' Romeo has run out of gas at the box office and is all set to arrive on digital platform after completing its theatrical run. The film, which hit cinemas on February 13, 2026, received a decent response at the box office and has now reportedly locked its digital premiere window. According to the latest reports, Vishal Bhardwaj's directed film will first be available for rent starting March 27, 2026, before making its way to subscription-based streaming. The movie will premiere on Amazon Prime Video for rent, where viewers can pay a fee to watch the film early. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) This strategy has become increasingly popular among recent Bollywood releases, allowing filmmakers to extend revenue beyond theatrical collections. For those waiting to stream it as part of their subscription, the film is expected to become available for all Prime members in the second week of April 2026, after an 8-week theatrical run. Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, O' Romeo is a gritty action drama set against the backdrop of crime and romance, featuring Shahid Kapoor in an intense and stylised role. The film blends elements of love, betrayal, and violence, staying true to Bhardwaj's signature storytelling style. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The film grossed over 100 crores at the worldwide box office, but it ended up as a below-average affair due to the high cost involved. With digital release in sight, the makers hope it will reach a wider audience on Amazon Prime Video. Stay tuned...

O Romeo: Vishal Bhardwaj Laments Difficult Phase of Filmmaking as Shahid Kapoor Starrer Underperforms

BY SACNILK

Vishal Bhardwaj's latest directorial venture, O Romeo, which hit theaters on February 13, 2024, has concluded its initial theatrical run with a performance that highlights the growing disconnect between critical ambition and commercial reality. Despite the high-profile reunion of the filmmaker with Shahid Kapoor—a duo responsible for cult classics like Haider and Kaminey—the film struggled to translate its star power into a box office victory. Marketed as a gritty, modern-day romantic thriller featuring an ensemble cast including Triptii Dimri, Disha Patani, and Nana Patekar, the project was one of the most anticipated releases of the season, yet it faced an uphill battle in a volatile theatrical environment. In terms of financial performance, the latest trade data suggests that while O Romeo continues its theatrical run, it is currently trending toward being a commercial underperformer relative to its high production stakes. The film managed an India Net collection of ₹71.30 Cr, with its India Gross standing at ₹83.50 Cr. When supplemented by an overseas contribution of ₹24.75 Cr, the movie's worldwide total reached ₹108.25 Cr. Given the reported production and marketing budget estimated between ₹100 Cr and ₹130 Cr, the film fell significantly short of the recovery required to be classified as a hit. While the Valentine's Day opening provided a temporary boost, the lack of sustained momentum in the following weeks suggests that the niche treatment of the subject failed to capture the mass audience. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   This underwhelming box office response has prompted a candid reflection from Vishal Bhardwaj himself. In a recent interaction with PTI, the filmmaker voiced his concerns about the current state of Indian cinema, describing it as a very strange and difficult stage of filmmaking. He highlighted a frustrating new demarcation in the industry where producers often label content-driven scripts as OTT subjects, while streaming platforms conversely refuse to acquire them unless they have a prior theatrical release to establish brand value. Bhardwaj lamented that good films are getting beaten in the process of this tug-of-war, making it nearly impossible for cinema of the heart to survive the current distribution model. Beyond the lead pair of Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri, the film featured a powerhouse supporting cast including Avinash Tiwary, Tamannaah Bhatia, and Nana Patekar, which added significant weight to the narrative. While critics generally praised the technical finesse and Bhardwaj's signature atmospheric storytelling, the commercial struggle of O Romeo serves as a stark reminder of the challenges facing medium-to-high budget dramas in an era dominated by event spectacles.With its digital release expected soon, industry experts suggest the film may find better engagement on streaming platforms, which often cater more effectively to specialized, story-driven content.

Dhurandhar: The Revenge: Teasers of Raja Shivaji and Cocktail 2 to be Attached with Ranveer Singh's Actioner

Jio Studios is reportedly planning a major promotional push for its upcoming slate by attaching highly anticipated teasers to the theatrical prints of Dhurandhar: The Revenge. According to an exclusive report by Pinkvilla, the teasers for Raja Shivaji and Cocktail 2 will be showcased in cinemas alongside the Ranveer Singh-starrer, which is scheduled for a grand release on March 19, 2026. This follows earlier reports that the trailer for Akshay Kumar's Bhooth Bangla is also set to be attached to the film. The decision to feature these teasers alongside Dhurandhar: The Revenge is viewed as a strategic move to leverage the significant audience turnout expected for the Aditya Dhar directorial. As one of the most anticipated films of the year, the spy action-thriller provides a massive platform for Jio Studios to introduce its future projects to a global audience. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Raja Shivaji, a historical epic based on the life of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, is positioned as a landmark project for Marathi cinema. Directed by and starring Riteish Deshmukh in the titular role, the film is a Pan-India production slated for release on May 1, 2026. The ensemble cast includes Abhishek Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Vidya Balan, and Fardeen Khan, with reports also suggesting a guest appearance by Salman Khan. The film will be released in Marathi and Hindi, with dubbed versions in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam. Simultaneously, the teaser for Cocktail 2 is expected to be unveiled. Directed by Homi Adajania, the romantic drama features Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna in lead roles. While the official release date for Cocktail 2 has not yet been confirmed, industry insiders expect the announcement to coincide with the teaser drop during the Eid 2026 period.

O'Romeo Box Office Collection Day 17: Shahid Kapoor Starrer Crosses 100 Crore Globally But Struggles To Recover Its Budget

BY SACNILK

The latest box office reports for the Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri starrer O'Romeo show a mixed performance as the film completes 17 days in theaters. Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, the action-thriller has officially crossed the ₹100 crore milestone at the worldwide gross box office. However, despite reaching this symbolic figure globally, the film's domestic performance paints a challenging picture regarding its financial recovery and overall success rate. O'Romeo has earned a total India net collection of ₹65.15 crore as of its 17th day. The film started its journey with a decent Week 1 collection of ₹47.1 crore, but witnessed a significant drop in its second week, managing only ₹14.45 crore. This sharp decline indicates a slowing momentum at the ticket windows, as the film struggled to maintain a steady grip over the weekdays following its initial opening. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The financial viability of the project remains a concern given its high production scale. O'Romeo was mounted on a reported budget of ₹130 crore, which includes ₹30 crore dedicated to print and advertising (P&A). With the India net collection currently standing at just over half of its total cost, the film faces an uphill task in reaching a break-even point. While the overseas market contributed ₹24.1 crore and helped push the worldwide gross to ₹101 crore, the domestic theatrical share is not currently on track to categorize the film as a commercial hit. Looking ahead, the long-term prospects for the Vishal Bhardwaj directorial appear limited. While the film still holds its current screen presence, its theatrical run is expected to be severely curtailed by the impending release of Dhurandhar 2. The massive wave of anticipation for the sequel is likely to dominate the marketplace and take over a significant portion of screens, leaving little room for O'Romeo to add to its totals. Given the current collection trends and the approaching competition,it is unlikely the film will achieve the success rate needed to turn a profit during its theatrical run.

Mumbai, February 19 - Shahid Kapoor-led O Romeo, has delivered a decent first-week performance at the box office. After seven days of theatrical run, the romantic-crime drama has collected around 47 crore net in India, indicating steady audience interest despite mixed word of mouth. O Romeo opened decently over its first weekend, earning 30+ crore net, benefiting from the Valentine's Day period. The movie showed better-than-expected hold on weekdays despite the usual drop. The BOGO offer and discounted prices helped the collection to remain steady. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) At the overseas box office, the Vishal Bhardwaj-directed flick collected around 18 crores in the first week, pushing the worldwide total to over 70 crores gross. While the numbers are respectable, the overall performance is underwhelming given the massive cost and talent involved. The second weekend will be crucial for the movie. There are a couple of new releases this week, which will take away some theatres, but O Romeo is expected to be the number 1 movie, as buzz is low for the upcoming films. It will be crucial for the film to hold well on Friday and then scorea significant jump over the weekend. Stay tuned...

O Romeo Faces Crucial Monday Test: Box Office Collections Dip After Steady Opening Weekend

BY SACNILK

The romantic entertainer O Romeo has encountered its first significant hurdle at the box office, witnessing a noticeable dip on its first Monday. After a promising start over the weekend, the film collected ₹4.85 Cr on Day 4, marking a 46.11% drop from its Sunday numbers. This downward trend is a standard Monday test for most commercial releases, but the film now needs to maintain steady footfalls throughout the weekdays to ensure long-term stability at the ticket windows. A closer look at Shahid Kapoor's box office history highlights a concerning trend for O Romeo. The film's ₹4.85 Cr Monday collection shows a clear struggle to match the mid-week resilience of his previous outings. Specifically, the action-entertainer R... Rajkumar maintained a significantly higher hold with a ₹6.55 Cr Monday. While O Romeo managed to narrowly edge past the figures of Udta Punjab (₹4.5 Cr), it failed to outpace Haider, which stood firm at ₹4.95 Cr. With the actor's top-tier lifetime earners like Padmaavat and Kabir Singh operating in a different league, the current performance suggests O Romeo will find it difficult to secure a dominant position in his career's top rankings. Despite the Monday slowdown, the film's overall domestic performance remains respectable. O Romeo opened with ₹8.5 Cr on Friday and saw a massive 48% jump on Saturday, peaking at ₹12.65 Cr. However, Sunday showed an early sign of exhaustion with a 28% decline, bringing in ₹9 Cr. This brings the total India Net Collection to an estimated ₹35 Cr within its first four days of release. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   On the global front, the film is performing well, particularly in international markets. The Worldwide Collection currently stands at ₹53.3 Cr, bolstered by a solid ₹12 Cr contribution from the overseas circuit. In India, the Gross Collection has reached ₹41.3 Cr, with total footfalls estimated at approximately 1.74 million. While the Saturday surge indicated strong initial interest among youth and family audiences, Sunday’s business was significantly hampered by the high-voltage T20 match. Consequently, all eyes are now on the coming days to see if the film can stabilize and regain its momentum at the ticket windows. Produced as a high budget romantic drama, O Romeo now enters a decisive phase. While the cumulative four-day total is healthy, the film must hold its ground above the ₹3 Cr mark for the remainder of the week to be declared a hit.The focus now shifts to whether the film can regain its momentum during the evening shows and stabilize its daily collections as it progresses through the week.

O Romeo Vs TBMAUJ Vs Deva Box Office: Shahid Kapoor's Romantic Actioner Wins Opening Weekend

Mumbai, February 16 - Shahid Kapoor-led O Romeo has managed to put up a decent opening weekend performance at the domestic box office. The romantic action drama collected around 30 crore net in its first three days, emerging as the actor's biggest opener since the Covid-19 pandemic. O Romeo had a decent pre-release buzz, which led to the biggest start for a Shahid Kapoor-starrer since Kabir Singh. It showed a solid jump on the valentine's Day, but the collection dropped on Sunday due to the cricket match between India and Pakistan, resulting in 30.15 crores net opening weekend. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) As said, the film's opening weekend numbers are particularly significant (not in numbers) for Shahid Kapoor, as O Romeo now stands as Shahid's biggest opening weekend grosser in the post-pandemic era, and biggest since Kabir Singh, underlining the actor's tough run in recent times when it comes to opening. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) For context, Shahid Kapoor's earlier releases also had decent starts. 2024's romantic comedy Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya collected 27.10 crore net in its opening weekend, while Deva earned 19.15 crore net over its first three days. Against these figures, O Romeo clearly takes the lead, which was expected given the scale and talent involved. O Romeo's long-term performance will now depend on weekday trends and audience word of mouth, especially given the fact that the high cost is involved in making the film. It needs to perform really well in the coming days to reach a respectable lifetime total and emerge as a decent success at the box office. Stay tuned...

The film's box office journey began on a positive note, netting ₹ 8.5 Cr on its opening Friday.The film saw a significant surge on Day 2 (Saturday), jumping over 48% to collect ₹ 12.65 Cr, largely driven by strong occupancy in urban multiplexes and the Valentine's Day crowd. However, as per early estimates, the film witnessed a stabilization on Sunday (Day 3), earning approximately ₹ 9.00 Cr.However this slight Sunday drop may be due to the high-voltage India vs. Pakistan T20 cricket match, which traditionally draws a massive television audience in the evening hours.
