Despite the star cast Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Pandey, Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri shows a slow decline in occupancy and collection on its eighth day.

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri Box Office Update: Day 8

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, starring Bollywood’s young heartthrobs Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Pandey, has witnessed a lukewarm response in its first week at the box office. As of now, the film has earned around ₹0.39 Cr India net on its eighth day, bringing its total 8-day India net collection to approximately ₹29.24 Cr. While the film started with promise, the numbers indicate a steady decline after the initial weekend surge.

Day-wise India Net Collection:

Day 1 [Thursday]: ₹7.75 Cr
Day 2 [Friday]: ₹5.25 Cr (-32.26%)
Day 3 [Saturday]: ₹5.5 Cr (+4.76%)
Day 4 [Sunday]: ₹5 Cr (-9.09%)
Day 5 [Monday]: ₹1.75 Cr (-65.00%)
Day 6 [Tuesday]: ₹1.75 Cr (0.00%)
Day 7 [Wednesday]: ₹1.85 Cr (+5.71%)
Day 8 [Thursday]: ₹0.39 Cr

The opening weekend numbers were respectable, with the first day crossing ₹7 Cr, thanks to Kartik Aaryan’s fan base and Ananya Pandey’s youthful charm. However, weekdays have shown a noticeable drop, particularly from Day 5 onwards, signaling weak word-of-mouth and limited repeat viewership.

Occupancy Report: Day 8

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri registered an overall Hindi occupancy of 8.77% on Thursday, January 01, 2026. Morning shows led the way, while afternoon, evening, and night shows struggled to draw audiences. Here’s a closer look at key regions’ occupancy:

Mumbai: 14%
Pune: 16%
Bengaluru: 20%
National Capital Region (NCR): 9%
Lucknow: 9%
Jaipur: 3%

Smaller cities and regions, including Hyderabad and Chennai, reported almost negligible occupancy, underlining the challenge the film is facing outside metropolitan areas.

Star Power vs Box Office Performance

Despite the star-studded cast, Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri couldn’t replicate the massive box office success of Kartik Aaryan’s previous hits. To put things into perspective, here’s how this film ranks among the top Hindi net collection movies of the lead actors:

Kartik Aaryan Top Hindi Net Collection Movies:

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 – ₹260.11 Cr
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 – ₹184.32 Cr
Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety – ₹108.95 Cr
Luka Chuppi – ₹94.09 Cr
Pati Patni Aur Woh – ₹84.56 Cr
Satyaprem Ki Katha – ₹77.04 Cr
Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 – ₹64.21 Cr
Chandu Champion – ₹63.57 Cr
Love Aaj Kal – ₹39.76 Cr
Shehzada – ₹32.02 Cr

Ananya Pandey Top Hindi Net Collection Movies:

Dream Girl 2 – ₹106.71 Cr
Kesari Chapter 2 – ₹92.6 Cr
Pati Patni Aur Woh – ₹84.56 Cr
Student Of The Year 2 – ₹70.86 Cr
Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri – ₹28.85 Cr
Liger – ₹18.55 Cr

While Kartik Aaryan has consistently delivered hits crossing the ₹50-100 Cr mark, this film seems to have underperformed in comparison, and Ananya Pandey’s collection record reflects a similar trend.

Film Details and Insights

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri is directed by Sameer Vidwans and produced under the banners of Dharma Productions and Namah Pictures. Apart from Kartik and Ananya, the film features veteran actors including Neena Gupta, Jackie Shroff, Aruna Irani, and Tiku Talsania, adding gravitas and nostalgia to the story.

The film attempted a mix of romance and family drama, but critics and audiences alike noted the predictable plot and lack of fresh storytelling. The initial curiosity among fans of Kartik and Ananya helped the film open big, but sustainability proved difficult.

Regional Performance

Occupancy in key Hindi-speaking regions shows a sharp contrast between metros and smaller towns:

Mumbai and Pune contributed the highest occupancy on Day 8, at 14% and 16% respectively.
Bengaluru stood out at 20%, while NCR hovered around 9%.
Other regions like Chennai, Hyderabad, and Bhopal struggled with near-zero footfalls.

The morning shows led occupancy, indicating the audience that came early for screenings, while later shows were sparsely populated.

Box Office Verdict

After eight days, the film has earned ₹29.24 Cr India net. With occupancy dropping to single digits in most regions, the film is likely to continue a slow downward trend in the coming weekdays. Comparatively, it falls short of Kartik’s and Ananya’s bigger hits, and word-of-mouth hasn’t managed to turn the tide.

While the star cast brought initial attention, the content and execution appear to have limited the film’s staying power. The overall occupancy and collection numbers indicate a “moderate hit” at best, with potential for recovery only if weekend footfalls improve.

Final Thoughts

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri serves as another reminder that star power alone cannot guarantee sustained box office success. In the coming days, it will be interesting to see if Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Pandey can bring in more audiences via promotions or if the film will gradually exit theaters quietly.

For now, the film’s journey remains modest, and industry watchers will compare it to the actors’ previous hits, noting that this could be one of the smaller net grossers in their filmography.
