After a rather muted run in its first week, 'Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan' saw a surprising turnaround on its ninth day at the box office. The romantic drama is directed by Santosh Singh and features Vikrant Massey , Zain Khan Durrani , and debutante Shanaya Kapoor . According to the Sacnilk website, the film managed to earn Rs 1.72 crore on day 9 alone. This marks the highest single-day collection for the film, taking its India net total to ₹2.03 crore. The global gross stands at the same figure, with no overseas earnings reported so far. Slow start, but growing word-of-mouth is helping The film started off quietly, opening at Rs 30 lakhs on day 1 and maintaining similar numbers over the first weekend. The weekdays saw a further dip, with earnings dropping as low as Rs 1 lakh on days 7 and 8. Day-wise numbers: The film mints Rs 30 lakhs on day 1, day 2: Rs 50 lakhs, day 3: Rs 50 lakhs, day 4: Rs 13 lakhs, day 5: Rs 12 lakhs, day 6: Rs 8 lakhs, day 7: Rs 7 lakhs, day 8: Rs 1 lakh, day 9: Rs 1.72 Cr A hopeful turn for the cast and debutant Shanaya Kapoor This late surge may not completely turn around the film's commercial fate, but it does offer a glimmer of hope, particularly for Shanaya Kapoor, who makes her acting debut with this film. An excerpt from ETimes review reads, "Tanveer Mir's cinematography lends stunning visual appeal, capturing both the grandeur of Mussoorie and the charm of Europe. Vishal Mishra's soothing music further elevates the film. Despite narrative shortcomings, what works is the lead couple. Shanaya Kapoor makes an impressive debut, bringing a strong screen presence and handling emotional scenes with ease. Vikrant Massey once again proves his mettle with a nuanced performance across both light and intense moments. Zain Khan Durrani also delivers a fine act, despite limited screen time."

'Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan' box office collections day 7: Vikrant Massey's film struggles to cross Rs 2 crore; wraps up week 1 with Rs 1.7 crore
The romantic drama 'Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan', starring Vikrant Massey , Shanaya Kapoor , and Zain Khan Durrani , completed its first week at the box office with underwhelming numbers. As reported by Sacnilk, the film earned approximately Rs 7 lakhs, bringing the total week 1 collection to Rs 1.70 crore India net. The film started slow with Rs 30 lakhs on Day 1 (Friday) and saw minimal growth over the weekend with Rs 50 lakhs on both Saturday and Sunday. However, post-Monday, the numbers began to dwindle drastically. Monday brought in just Rs 13 lakhs. It further declined throughout the weekdays. Occupancy on Day 7 On Thursday, the film recorded a modest 8.5% average occupancy across Hindi 2D shows. While some cities like Mumbai (13.75%) and NCR (10.50%) showed occasional spikes, the general turnout across regions remained disappointing. Morning shows opened to a weak 6.55% which peaked only slightly during the night at 12%. Cities like Chennai reported negligible activity, and single-digit occupancy was seen in major regions like Pune (6.5%) and Surat (3.5%). The Verdict Directed by Santosh Singh, 'Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan' aimed to deliver a subtle, emotionally charged narrative. Unfortunately, due to minimal pre-release buzz and mixed audience reception, the film has struggled to gain traction. Vikrant Massey steps away from 'Don 3', search begins for new 'VILLAIN'

After a modestly promising weekend, 'Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan' starring Vikrant Messy and Shanaya Kapoor has seen a consistent dip in collections during the weekdays. According to the Sacnilk website, the romantic drama managed to bring in just Rs 8 lakhs crore on its seventh day (Thursday), taking its first-week India net total to approximately Rs 1.76 crore. Steady Weekend, but Steep Drop During Weekdays The film, which had a slow start, picked up slightly on Saturday and Sunday but began to fizzle out starting Monday.

However, the film couldn't maintain the momentum during the weekdays. Monday saw a sharp 70% decline, and the movie made only Rs 15 lakhs. The numbers kept falling; the film collected Rs 14 lakhs on Tuesday, Rs 9 lakhs on Wednesday, and finally Rs 8 lakhs on Thursday. Low occupancy across key regions The overall Hindi occupancy for the film on Day 7 was around 8.50%, with night shows performing slightly better at 12%. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo In metro regions, Mumbai led the charge with 13.75% overall occupancy, while NCR followed at 10.50%.

Love For Cricketer & ‘Shawarma' As Inspiration, Mumbai Sikh Family Invented Iconic Dish Named...
Last Updated: For many Mumbaikars, the Tibbs Frankie kiosk outside Churchgate station is where the love affair began. It's hard to imagine Mumbai street food without the famous Frankie — a spicy, flavour-packed roll that's loved by millions. But did you know this iconic dish was born nearly six decades ago in the city? What started as a simple idea during a trip abroad turned into one of Mumbai's most beloved snacks. Today, Frankie is more than just food — it's a nostalgic bite of history wrapped in a paratha. During the promotions of their project Aankhon Ki Gustakhiyaan, both Vikrant Massey and Shanaya Kapoor paid a visit to Chef Sanjyot Keer, who, while preparing the dish, explained the history behind it. It all started with one man's foreign trip and a cricket match. Frankie isn't just a street snack—it's a slice of the city's soul, wrapped in a hot, buttery paratha. It was 1969. Amarjit Singh Tibb, the man behind the idea, visited Beirut and loved the pita wraps there. Back in Bombay (as it was then known), he had a thought: why not try something similar here? He swapped the pita for a soft chapati, added a beaten egg and stuffed it with spicy Indian fillings. And just like that, Frankie was born. The name? It has a fun twist. Legend says that during an India–West Indies cricket match, someone shouted 'What a shot, Frankie!" after a hit by West Indies legend Frank Worrell. Tibb liked how it sounded and named his creation 'Frankie." For many Mumbaikars, the Tibbs Frankie kiosk outside Churchgate station is where the love affair began. The red stall, the sizzling egg on the tawa and the spicy aroma—it was all part of the magic. Frankie became more than just food. It became part of people's lives. Tibbs Frankie didn't stay small. It grew into a brand with outlets all across India. After Amarjit and his wife Surinder co-founded it, their sons Charanjit and Jasmit continued the journey. The secret? That unforgettable masala and a perfect paratha. Food writer Freddy Birdy once said, 'Only a Frankie can be called a Frankie." He's right. It's more than a roll—it's an identity. Birdy swears by the mutton version. 'A Veg Frankie," he jokes, 'is only half the pleasure." Over the years, the fillings have changed. From classic mutton to chilli paneer and even schezwan noodles—there's a Frankie for every mood. Thanks to the internet, it's now famous far beyond Mumbai. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.
