The Indian box office witnessed a mixed bag of performances on May 28, 2026, with several films vying for audience attention. Among the notable releases, Pati Patni Aur Woh continued its steady run, while Do Chand and Mera Dil showed moderate collections. Meanwhile, regional films like Karuppu and the much-anticipated Drishyam 3 also contributed to the day's earnings.
Pati Patni Aur Woh
The comedy-drama Pati Patni Aur Woh, starring Kartik Aaryan, Bhumi Pednekar, and Ananya Panday, maintained its momentum on its third Tuesday. The film earned approximately Rs 2.5 crore on May 28, taking its total domestic collection to Rs 85 crore. With positive word-of-mouth, it is expected to cross the Rs 100 crore mark by the end of its third week.
Do Chand
The romantic thriller Do Chand, featuring Rajkummar Rao and Kriti Sanon, saw a slight dip in collections, earning around Rs 1.8 crore on its second Tuesday. The film's total stands at Rs 40 crore, and it faces competition from new releases. However, its strong performances and engaging storyline continue to draw audiences in metro cities.
Mera Dil
Mera Dil, a coming-of-age drama starring newcomers, collected approximately Rs 0.75 crore on May 28. The film has been struggling to attract footfalls since its release, with a total of Rs 12 crore so far. Critics have praised its fresh narrative, but limited marketing has affected its reach.
Karuppu
The Tamil film Karuppu, directed by Pa. Ranjith, performed well in its home state and among diaspora audiences. It earned Rs 1.2 crore on Tuesday, bringing its total to Rs 35 crore. The film's strong social commentary and powerful performances have resonated with viewers, making it a sleeper hit in the regional circuit.
Drishyam 3
The much-awaited Drishyam 3, starring Ajay Devgn and Tabu, had a strong hold on its first Tuesday, collecting Rs 4.5 crore. The film's total now stands at Rs 110 crore in just six days, making it one of the highest-grossing films of the year. With no major competition in the coming weeks, it is poised to cross the Rs 150 crore mark soon.
Overall Box Office Trend
May 28 saw total box office collections of approximately Rs 10.75 crore across all major films. While established franchises like Drishyam 3 dominate, mid-budget films like Pati Patni Aur Woh and Do Chand are holding their ground. Regional cinema continues to carve out a significant share, with films like Karuppu proving that content-driven stories can succeed. Industry analysts predict a strong weekend ahead, with family audiences expected to drive footfalls.
