Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat earned ₹8.50 crore net domestically on Tuesday, the day of its release, according to Sacnilk. The trade tracker had earlier reported strong showing for the film in tier-2 centres, saying that at one point in time, a double digit opening ( ₹10+ crore) looked likely for the film. However, in the end, Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat settled for a ₹8.50 crore start. This is a good number for the film, which does not boast of any big names and had to fight Thamma for screens nationwide.

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat has managed to secure one of the biggest openings for a romantic drama in 2025, behind only Saiyaara’s record-breaking ₹20.50 crore start. It has managed to beat Dhadak 2 ( ₹4 crore) and Metro In Dino ( ₹3 crore) quite convincingly.
