For Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui to have a good week at the box office, it needed to gross at least 3 crores on Monday, given Friday’s performance was only fair at 3.75 crores or 2.50 crores at the very least. However, Monday’s collections were just around 2 crores, thus this didn’t exactly materialise.

This isn’t surprising because, while Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui grew on Saturday and Sunday, it wasn’t to the amount that pre-pandemic multiplex movies did.
In such a scenario, the writing was on the wall, and while the entire weekend was fine, the lack of a strong hold on Monday means that the Ayushmann Khurrana and Vaani Kapoor blockbuster will be lucky to get a two-week run in theatres.
Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui presently has a box office gross of 16.53 crores, and it just has two more days to make the most money possible, as Spider-Man: No Way Home is set to release on Thursday. Though the movie will still gross over 20 crores in its first week, it would be interesting to watch how much higher it can go once the second weekend begins.
