Harshvardhan Rane's 'Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat' – a box office rollercoaster! After a whirlwind three weeks, the film had impressively raked in a whopping Rs 77.30 crore. But the story doesn't end there...
Despite the initial success, the film experienced a significant dip on its fourth Friday, collecting a mere Rs 17 lakh. This represents a considerable 65% drop, as reported by Sacnilk. This brings the total collection to Rs 77.47 crore.
But here's where it gets controversial... While it's common for films to see a decrease in their fourth-week Friday collections, the drastic fall of 'Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat' has raised eyebrows. Industry experts are now hoping for a strong recovery over the weekend.
The release of 'De De Pyaar De 2', starring Ajay Devgn, Rakul Preet Singh, and R Madhavan, might be a contributing factor to the drop. The film opened with a promising Rs 8.50 crore and is expected to continue its run in theaters for several weeks, potentially reaching the Rs 85 crore mark.
And this is the part most people miss... The success of 'Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat' has seemingly opened new doors for Harshvardhan Rane. Rumors suggest he's in talks to star in John Abraham’s upcoming action film, 'Force 3', with a reported offer of Rs 15 crore for a parallel lead role. Additionally, there are whispers of a potential gangster drama film with Ektaa R Kapoor, set in Dubai.
