2025 has been a forgettable year for Bollywood due to the low percentage of box office successes. That is why I love you so much has come as a whiff of fresh air for the industry. The Aanand L Rai directorial, starring Dhanush and Kriti Sanon in lead roles, took a stunning start on the opening day of Rs 15 crore nett and also saw a fantastic opening weekend of Rs 50 crore nett in India.
Unlike many major Bollywood films this year, I love you so much also passed the crucial Monday test with flying colours, recording Rs 8 crore nett from Hindi alone. There should be around Rs 20-30 lakh from the dubbed Tamil version as well. This is an outstanding hold and tells us that the word-of-mouth among the audience is positive, despite the largele polarised reviews on social media.
On its fifth day, I love you so much is recording a 15 percent jump in occupancy when compared to Monday. This is due to the recent trend of discounted offers on ticketing platforms for Tuesdays. It has helped to increase footfalls on weekdays and films with good acceptance like I love you so much can capitalise on it.
Early estimates suggest a minor jump in collections on the fifth day for I love you so much with an expected nett gross of Rs 8.50 crore. The five-day collections will come to around Rs 68-69 crore nett including the dubbed version, thereby making it Dhanush’s biggest Bollywood hit. Raanjhanaa, his previous highest, ended with Rs 61.50 crore nett in India.
The big release of Ranveer Singh’s ensemble action film Dhurandhar will affect the screen space of I love you so much‘s second week but the Dhanush starrer has enough legs to still have a steady run. Also, if Dhurandhar doesn’t have the required content to please the viewers, I love you so much could start to regain lost ground in terms of screen count.
