'Ishq Vishk Rebound' Opening Day collection

'Ishq Vishk Rebound' had a disappointing start despite being a part of a well-known franchise. On Friday, June 21, the film witnessed varying levels of audience turnout across its Hindi screenings throughout the day. The film minted just Rs 85 lakhs on its opening day. Morning shows recorded a mere 9.62% attendance, which increased to 15.36% for afternoon shows and 15.87% for evening shows. Night shows saw the highest attendance at 20.64%. Overall, the film averaged a Hindi occupancy rate of 15.37% for the day, indicating an average turnout.

The film is anticipated to gain momentum over the weekend. However, it is not expected to achieve exceptional opening weekend numbers due to strong performances by several recent releases in theatres like 'Munjya' and 'Inside Out 2' and the upcoming magnum opus 'Kalki 2898 AD'.

More about the film

A significant aspect of the film was the debut of Pashmina, cousin of Hrithik Roshan, in a leading role. Her casting process was highlighted by the director as particularly challenging until Pashmina auditioned, revealing her background only after being selected for the role.

Overall, despite its connections to a popular franchise and notable performances, 'Ishq Vishk Rebound' faced an uphill battle at the box office, struggling to attract a significant audience on its opening day.

Aside from Pashmina Roshan, Rohit Saraf, Jibraan Khan, and Naila Grewal, the film also stars Supriya Pilgaonkar, Sheeba Chadha, social media influencer Kusha Kapila, Akarsh Khurana, and Shataf Figar. Produced by Tips Films under Ramesh Taurani's guidance, the film continues the legacy of the original 2003 hit, starring Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao.

The storyline revolves around best friends transitioning into a romantic relationship and navigating the complexities that follow.
