The much-anticipated romantic comedy 'Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri', starring Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday, arrived in theatres on Christmas Day, December 25, 2025. The film opened to a promising start but has since experienced a significant decline in its box office collections, raising concerns about its long-term performance.
A Sharp Decline After Opening Weekend
According to trade reports, the film managed to hold a steady pace during its opening weekend. However, the first weekday, Monday, marked a dramatic fall. Early estimates from Sacnilk indicate that the film minted only Rs 1.75 crore net in India on its fifth day. This is a steep drop from its weekend numbers of Rs 5.5 crore on Saturday and Rs 5 crore on Sunday.
With this latest collection, the total India net earnings for 'Tu Meri Main Tera' stand at Rs 25.25 crore after a five-day run. The day-wise breakdown paints a clear picture of the downward trend.
Day-wise Box Office Collection Breakdown
The film's collections have steadily decreased since its opening day:
- Day 1 (Thursday): Rs 7.75 crore
- Day 2 (Friday): Rs 5.25 crore
- Day 3 (Saturday): Rs 5.5 crore
- Day 4 (Sunday): Rs 5 crore
- Day 5 (Monday): Rs 1.75 crore
Total Collection: Rs 25.25 crore net in India.
Dhurandhar Continues Its Dominant Run
In stark contrast, Ranveer Singh's action drama 'Dhurandhar', which also stars Akhshaye Khanna and Sara Arjun, remains the undisputed champion of the box office. On its 25th day, a Monday, the film collected an impressive over Rs 10.50 crore in the domestic market.
This strong performance has propelled its total collection to a monumental Rs 701.00 crore in India, cementing its status as a blockbuster. The film is set to complete a successful month in theatres soon, showing no signs of slowing down.
Hollywood Competition: Avatar's Steady Performance
The box office landscape also features James Cameron's Hollywood spectacle, 'Avatar: Fire And Ash'. The film added Rs 4.9 crore across different language versions in India on Monday, taking its cumulative total in the Indian market to Rs 142.8 crore. While not matching the peak of the Indian blockbuster, it continues to draw a steady audience.
What's Next for TMMTMTTM?
The sharp weekday drop for Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday's film indicates a struggle to retain audience interest beyond the initial festive release. The coming days will be crucial to determine if it can stabilise its earnings or if the decline will continue. The film released in a competitive period, directly challenging the sustained momentum of a major hit like 'Dhurandhar', which has proven to be a formidable opponent.
