Loveyapa’s Box Office Gamble: Will Gen Z Swipe Right?
Lights, camera, inertia! Bollywood’s latest hopeful, Loveyapa, tiptoed into cinemas this Friday, pocketing a modest Rs. 1 crore in opening day collections. Not exactly the grand entrance one might expect from a film wooing Generation Z. But then again, maybe the popcorn was more enticing?
Now, don’t get me wrong, this isn’t a case of love at first sight. When Loveyapa was announced, it seemed poised to win hearts, especially among the digitally-obsessed crowd who can’t go 10 minutes without checking their phones. Sadly, it seems their fingers were too busy swiping left on this cinematic offering.
However, hope springs eternal in Bollywood! The film, starring the charming duo Junaid Khan and Khushi Kapoor, is banking on a weekend miracle. With a storyline that pokes fun at our social media addiction (something we all can relate to), it’s got the ingredients to turn heads and maybe even turn the tide.
For this rom-com to successfully court its audience, it’s going to need a substantial leap in numbers today—think jumping from a puddle to a swimming pool. A box office double-up is essential to propel Loveyapa into the upcoming Valentine’s weekend, where lovebirds might just decide that watching a movie about the perils of digital romance is the perfect date.
So, will Loveyapa make a comeback worthy of a Bollywood climax? Or will it be yet another love story that fails to capture the audience’s heart? Stay tuned as the plot thickens!
Estimates. Final numbers awaited.

Remember folks, in Bollywood, just like in love, anything can happen—especially with a box office twist.
