Ek Din, the romantic drama produced by Aamir Khan and starring Junaid Khan alongside Sai Pallavi in her Hindi debut, opened on a subdued note on May 1, 2026. The film collected an India gross of ₹1.37 crore on Day 1 with an occupancy of around 14 percent across nearly 2,000 shows, reflecting limited pre-release awareness despite advance bookings opening weeks earlier.
On Day 2 (May 2), collections remained modest as the film added approximately ₹0.76 crore to its India gross tally, bringing the two-day India gross to ₹2.13 crore. Occupancy stayed low at 14 percent with reduced shows, indicating that the niche appeal and mixed early word-of-mouth have not yet translated into stronger audience turnout.
Early estimates for Day 3 suggest only a marginal improvement, with the film expected to maintain a similar trajectory on Sunday. The weekend performance will largely depend on positive audience feedback, though current trends point to a challenging theatrical run for this remake of the 2016 Thai film One Day.

About Ek Din and Future Prediction
Ek Din is a Hindi-language romantic drama directed by Sunil Pandey and produced by Mansoor Khan, Aamir Khan, and Aparna Purohit under Aamir Khan Productions. The film, a remake of the 2016 Thai movie One Day, follows Dinesh (Junaid Khan), a shy IT professional who harbours unspoken feelings for his colleague Meera (Sai Pallavi). During an office trip to Japan, circumstances allow him one memorable day to express his emotions, leading to a tender and heartfelt story of love and missed chances.
The film has received mixed reviews since its release. Critics and audiences have widely praised Sai Pallavi’s nuanced and emotionally resonant performance in her Hindi debut, along with the beautiful visuals and genuine chemistry between the leads. However, some have noted the pacing feels slow and the narrative could have been tighter, limiting its mass appeal in a competitive theatrical window.
Looking ahead, the film faces an uphill task at the box office given its low opening and steady but modest weekend trend. With limited screens and occupancy, it is unlikely to see explosive growth unless strong word-of-mouth emerges in the coming days. The production is expected to rely more on digital platforms and long-term viewership for its true audience reach, where its intimate storytelling may find better resonance.
