Tu Yaa Main, the survival thriller starring Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor, continues to navigate a challenging box office phase as it enters its fifth day. After a modest opening and a strong surge on Valentine’s Day, the film saw a significant drop over the weekend and Monday. Early trends for Tuesday indicate further stabilization at low levels, reflecting the impact of weekday routines and stiff competition from bigger releases like O’ Romeo.
On Day 4 (Monday), the movie collected around ₹0.18 crore in Indian gross, marking a sharp decline from the previous day. This performance aligns with expectations for a small-scale film in its initial week, where footfalls remain limited to urban pockets. Early estimates for Day 5 suggest collections hovering near ₹0.12 crore, pointing to a gradual but steady hold rather than a rebound.
The overall trend underscores the film’s reliance on positive word-of-mouth among younger audiences. While reviews have been encouraging for its fresh take on adventure and romance, the theatrical run faces hurdles in sustaining momentum amid a crowded marketplace.

About Tu Yaa Main and Future Prediction
Tu Yaa Main marks a notable debut for director Bejoy Nambiar in the survival genre, remaking the Thai film The Pool with a distinctly Indian flavor. The story follows two content creators thrust into a life-or-death situation in the wild, blending romance, thriller elements, and edge-of-the-seat tension. Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor deliver compelling performances, earning praise for their chemistry and the film’s gripping narrative that keeps viewers hooked despite its compact runtime.
Audience feedback has been largely positive, with many appreciating the innovative concept and high production values for a mid-budget project. Social media buzz highlights strong word-of-mouth, particularly among urban youth who connected with the relatable characters and thrilling sequences. This organic support could help the film build legs in the coming days, especially in multiplexes where evening shows are seeing better occupancy.
Looking ahead, Tu Yaa Main faces an uphill task to recover its ₹30 crore budget, given the slow start and ongoing competition. However, if it maintains its current pace and benefits from reduced screen shares for bigger films, it might extend its run into a respectable total. Trade analysts predict a final domestic nett of ₹10-15 crore if positive reviews sustain, positioning it as a modest performer rather than a blockbuster, but one that could shine on digital platforms later.
