On its opening day, Loveyapa earned ₹1.25 crore at the domestic box office, according to early estimates from Sacnilk. Despite a slow start during morning shows, the film picked up momentum with increased footfalls in the evening and night screenings. Hyderabad registered the highest occupancy, followed by Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Jaipur.
Trade analyst Sumit Kadel described the film as “fun and engaging,” highlighting its appeal to Gen Z audiences. He praised Junaid Khan’s confident debut performance and Khushi Kapoor’s emotional depth, calling her the “true star” of the film.
The movie’s pre-release buzz was fueled by a star-studded screening attended by Bollywood heavyweights such as Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan. Celebrities like Karan Johar also lauded the film, calling it “the first successful love story of 2025.”
Loveyapa faced stiff competition from other releases, including Badass Ravikumar, Sky Force, and Deva. Despite this, the film managed to outperform these titles, suggesting positive word-of-mouth could lead to a strong weekend collection.
With a week to shine before competing against major releases like Marvel’s Captain America: Brave New World and Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava, the coming days will be crucial in determining Loveyapa’s box office trajectory.
