Mumbai, 19 February 2026: The box office numbers for yesterday are officially out. As we move deeper into the week, the excitement of the Valentine’s season is starting to fade away.

Yesterday, on Wednesday, 18 February 2026, the theater collections across India saw a further drop. This is normal for a mid-week working day, but it also shows which movies have the “legs” to survive and which ones are crashing. According to the BoxOfficeWala Daily Chart, the romantic drama O Romeo is still leading the race, but the numbers are decreasing quite fast.

In this detailed daily report, we will look at how the top movies performed. We will see the India Net collections, the Worldwide (WW) totals, and what these numbers actually mean for the producers and the stars.

O Romeo: The Struggle to Reach the 150 Crore Target

Day 6 Collection and Trending

The biggest movie currently in theaters is O Romeo. On its Day 6, the film collected ₹3.1 Cr. If we look at the Tuesday collection (5.1 Cr), this is a significant drop. Usually, a big movie should stay steady on Wednesday, but O Romeo seems to be losing its grip on the mass audience. While the urban centers are still showing some interest, the overall footfalls are coming down.

Total Collection and Worldwide Status

Because the movie has a very high budget of ₹150 Cr, every crore counts.

• India Net Collection: After six days, the total stands at ₹44.09 Cr.
• Worldwide Collection: The global numbers are better, reaching ₹68.15 Cr.

What This Means for the Movie

Analytically, O Romeo is in a dangerous spot. It has not even touched the 50 Crore mark in India yet, even though its budget is 150 Crores. It needs to show a massive jump this coming Friday and Saturday. If it doesn’t, it will be very hard for the movie to even recover its basic cost. The “Valentine’s Day” hype is over, and now only the story can save the film.

Funky 2026: Gen-Z Film Fails to Connect

Day 6 Report

The youth-based film Funky 2026 is also struggling. On its Day 6, it managed to earn only ₹0.55 Cr. For a movie that was released just last week, falling below the 1 Crore mark so early is a bad sign.

Budget and Total Earnings

The budget for this film is ₹25 Cr.

• India Net Collection: So far, it has collected ₹7.72 Cr.
• Worldwide Collection: The total worldwide earnings are ₹12.30 Cr.

Is it a Flop?

It is moving towards the “Below Average” or “Flop” category. It has not even recovered 50% of its budget in India. Unless the digital and satellite rights are sold for a very high price, the theatrical run of Funky 2026 will be considered a disappointment.

With Love: Still Winning Hearts with a Low Budget

Day 13 Performance

The surprise hit With Love is finally showing signs of slowing down. On its Day 13, it earned ₹0.54 Cr. Interestingly, it earned almost the same as Funky 2026, despite being much older. This shows that the audience preferred this simple love story over the newer releases.

Huge Success Story

This movie is the “ROI King” of the season. With a tiny budget of ₹10 Cr, the makers are already very happy.

• India Net Collection: Total stands at ₹22.38 Cr.
• Worldwide Collection: Globally, it has made ₹29.66 Cr.

Verdict

With Love is a Super Hit. It has earned double its budget. It is a lesson for Bollywood that you don’t need 100 Crores to make a profit. Sometimes, a small budget and a sweet story are enough.

Border 2: The Final Salute of a Blockbuster

Day 27 Collection

Border 2 is currently on its Day 27. Yesterday, it collected ₹0.48 Cr. While 48 Lakhs sounds small, we must remember this is its fourth Wednesday! Most movies don’t even last for 10 days, but Border 2 is still pulling in crowds after nearly a month.

Record-Breaking Journey

The movie was made on a budget of ₹150 Cr, and it has become one of the biggest hits of 2026.

• India Net Collection: A massive ₹325.80 Cr.
• Worldwide Collection: It has crossed the ₹441.08 Cr mark.

Legacy of Border 2

This film is an All-Time Blockbuster. It has already done its job and broken many records. It will likely exit theaters this Friday to make room for new releases, but it will be remembered as the movie that brought the masses back to the big screen.

Mardaani 3: A Steady Journey for Rani Mukerji

Day 20 Update

Mardaani 3 is finishing its third week. On Day 20, it earned ₹0.46 Cr. It is performing very steadily, almost matching the daily numbers of Border 2.

Totals and Recovery

The budget for this franchise film is ₹70 Cr.

• India Net Collection: ₹45.74 Cr.
• Worldwide Collection: ₹68.15 Cr. (Note: It matches O Romeo’s current WW total!)

Final Status

The movie will be called an “Average” performer. It didn’t become a huge hit like the previous parts, but it didn’t crash either. It has recovered most of its cost through worldwide collections and will eventually make a small profit after OTT deals.

Tu Yaa Main: The Biggest Disaster of the Year

Day 6 Crash

Finally, we look at Tu Yaa Main. The movie has completely crashed. On its Day 6, it earned a tiny ₹0.29 Cr.

Financial Disaster

With a budget of ₹30 Cr, the movie is nowhere near recovery.

• India Net Collection: Only ₹3.97 Cr.
• Worldwide Collection: ₹4.67 Cr.

Verdict: Tu Yaa Main is a Mega Disaster. It has not even recovered 15% of its budget. It will likely be removed from almost all theaters by tomorrow.

Final Thoughts: The Wednesday Box Office Summary

To conclude the 18th Feb 2026 BoxOfficeWala Daily Chart, the industry is going through a quiet phase. O Romeo is the only “active” big film, but its slow speed is a concern. With Love and Border 2 are the clear winners of the month, showing how different genres can succeed if the timing is right.

Tomorrow is the last day of the week, and all eyes are on the new releases coming this Friday. Will they be able to beat the dominance of the older hits? Stay tuned to BoxOfficeWala for all the latest updates!
