The film, directed by Tejas Prabha and Vijay Deoskar, has been struggling at the box office. On Day 7, the action thriller failed to cross the Rs 1-crore mark. Ground Zero minted Rs 7 lakh at the ticket window on its first Thursday, reported industry tracker Sacnilk. With this, the movie's total domestic collection now stands at Rs 7.33 crore. Ground Zero witnessed a Hindi occupancy rate of 15.77 percent on May 1, added the report.

Afternoon screenings recorded 15.83 percent, while morning shows had the lowest occupancy, standing at 5.30 percent. Ground Zero, produced by Excel Entertainment, Talisman Films and Dreamzkrraft Entertainment, is inspired by true events. Besides Emraan Hashmi, the film also features Sai Tamhankar, Zoya Hussain, and Mukesh Tiwari in key roles. Emraan Hashmi plays the role of Narendra Nath Dhar Dubey, the second-in-command of the BSF in Ground Zero. The movie, set against the backdrop of the volatile Kashmir region in the early 2000s, centres around Dubey, who tracks down terrorist mastermind Ghazi Baba with his team. Ghazi Baba aka Rana Tahir Nadeem, was responsible for the 2001 Parliament attack. He was killed in 2003. Previously, Emraan Hashmi reacted to the deadly terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu & Kashmir, that claimed the lives of 26 civilians. The actor, in a conversation with Vishal Malhotra, expressed his faith in the government to 'set things right'. Emraan Hashmi said, 'I hope the government sets this right and takes payback. Of course, terrorism never has a religion. Ek skewed aur warped ideology hoti hai unki (terrorists have a skewed and warped ideology). Humare religion mein toh kabhi nahi sikhaya jata hai (our religion never teaches such things). In other news, Emraan Hashmi is geared up for the release of Awarapan 2. The film, which is the sequel to the actor's 2007 blockbuster Awarapan, will release on April 3, 2026.

Ground Zero Box Office Collection Day 3: Emraan Hashmi's film shows slight improvement, makes Rs 5 cr; earns 50 percent less than his last release
Ground Zero Box Office Collection Day 3: Emraan Hashmi 's military drama Ground Zero had a slow start at the box office. However, the current situation in the valley and strong word of mouth seem to have given a push to the film at the box office. On Sunday, the film earned Rs 2.15 crores at the box office, performing better than its first two days. On Friday, the film earned Rs 1.15 crore, and on Saturday, it collected Rs 1.9 crore. After three days, Ground Zero's net India collection stands at Rs 5.20 crores. Worldwide, the Emraan Hashmi starrer has earned Rs 3.65 crores in the first two days and its third-day collection is awaited. While Emraan's last film, Tiger 3, starring Salman Khan in the lead, had earned in double digits, Rs 43.5 crores on its third day, his film Selfiee, before that, had collected Rs 3.95 crores on its third day and over Rs 10 crore in the first weekend. His 2021 film, Mumbai Saga, had also performed better than Ground Zero and earned Rs 3.5 crores on day 3 and a shade over Rs 8 cr in the first weekend. Considering how films have been underperforming at the box office of late, Ground Zero has had quite a decent and promising start. But compared to Emraan's past box office trajectory, the film has failed to surpass his last few releases. However, the buzz for the film has only grown, which has led to an increase in its occupancy. On Sunday, the overall occupancy for Ground Zero was 17.25 percent with a total of 1669 shows. Chennai had the highest occupancy of 67.25 percent with just 7 shows. The occupancy for the Emraan Hashmi starrer was also high in Kolkata, with 23 percent and 99 shows. In Delhi -NCR, the film has 422 shows, and its occupancy was 14.75 percent. In Mumbai, the film's occupancy was 18.75 percent with 274 shows. Earlier this month, Ground Zero had its premiere at a theater in Srinagar after 38 years. Other than Emraan Hashmi, the film also stars Sai Tamhankar. Directed by Tejas Prabha Vijay Deoskar and produced by Excel Entertainment, Dreamzkrraft Entertainment, and Talisman Films, Ground Zero had its theatrical release on 25th April.
