O’Romeo collection and success of the movie
According to Sacnilk reports, O’Romeo has earned Rs 47.15 crore by the end of its seventh day in theatres, narrowly missing the Rs 50 crore milestone. The film is currently facing box office competition from Tu Yaa Main, starring Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor, as both movies hit cinemas on February 13. O’Romeo opened to a decent Rs 8.25 crore on its first day, setting the tone for its theatrical run. After completing its cinema journey, the film is expected to stream on Amazon Prime Video. While the official OTT release date remains unannounced, it typically premieres 45–60 days post release.
O’Romeo: In-House Review
Our in-house critic awarded the film a respectable 3 out of 5 stars, with a portion of the review stating: “O’ Romeo isn’t a bad film nor a masterpiece. It has a lot of loose ends and unexplained connections. Due to this, it becomes difficult to join dots and feel characters and their purposes. With excellent performances, and Vishal’s ability to tell a fairly engaging story for 3 hours, O’ Romeo can be watched with loved ones and parents, only if violence, abuses and bloodshed are palatable.”
Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, O’Romeo is reportedly inspired by Mafia Queens of Mumbai and stars Shahid Kapoor as Ustara, with Triptii Dimri playing Afshan. The film features an ensemble supporting cast, including Disha Patani, Vikrant Massey, Farida Jalal, Hussain Dalal, Nana Patekar, Tamannaah Bhatia and Avinash Tiwary, adding depth and star power to the narrative.
