Love, action, and box office glory—but is O’Romeo living up to the hype? Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri’s Valentine’s Day release, O’Romeo, has officially crossed the 50-crore mark at the worldwide box office, cementing its place as Bollywood’s 3rd highest-grossing film of 2026. But here’s where it gets controversial: while the film has achieved a respectable milestone, it’s still falling short of the sky-high expectations set for Vishal Bhardwaj’s directorial venture. Was the hype too much, or is this just the beginning? Scroll down for a detailed breakdown of its day 3 performance and where it stands in the global race!
O’Romeo Overseas Box Office Collection
The romantic action thriller has raked in a solid 10 crore gross at the overseas box office during its opening weekend—a commendable feat in just 3 days. Notably, it has already outpaced Ajay Devgn’s Son Of Sardaar 2, which wrapped its international run at 9.75 crore in 2025. Next on the target list? Akshay Kumar’s Sky Force and Tiger Shroff’s Baaghi 4, both sitting at the 15-crore mark. And this is the part most people miss: among 2026 releases, O’Romeo is poised to overtake Rani Mukerji’s Mardaani 3, currently at 13.25 crore, in the coming days.
O’Romeo Worldwide Collection
Globally, the film has amassed a total of 50.72 crore gross, with 40.72 crore coming from the domestic market. This not only puts it in the half-century club but also pushes it past Agastya Nanda’s Ikkis (46.27 crore). Now, the big question: Can it dethrone Mardaani 3 (65.7 crore) for the second spot? Here’s a look at the top 5 highest-grossing Bollywood films of 2026 globally:
- Border 2: 475.92 crore
- Mardaani 3: 65.7 crore
- O’Romeo: 50.72 crore
- Ikkis: 46.27 crore
- Rahu Ketu: 7.51 crore
Shahid Kapoor’s Rising Global Footprint
With just 3.78 crore needed, O’Romeo is on the cusp of entering Shahid Kapoor’s top 10 highest-grossing films globally, surpassing his 2011 film Mausam (54.5 crore). This milestone is expected to be achieved today, but the real debate is: Can it sustain its momentum long enough to challenge the bigger players on the list?
Day 3 Box Office Summary
- India Net: 34.51 crore
- India Gross: 40.72 crore
- Overseas Gross: 10 crore
- Worldwide Gross: 50.72 crore
