The early trend reports indicate that "Ishq Vishk Rebound" collected a modest 8.5 million INR on its opening day. These preliminary figures highlight the film's struggle to draw viewers, reflected in lackluster reviews from both critics and audiences.
The much-anticipated sequel, "Ishq Vishk Rebound," directed by Nipun Avinash Dharmadhikari, graced theaters this Friday. This film, a continuation of the "Ishq Vishk" franchise, marks the Bollywood debut of Pashmina Roshan, the cousin of the renowned Hrithik Roshan. Despite the inherent buzz surrounding a franchise revival and a notable debut, the film saw minimal promotion, which translated into a tepid response from audiences on its first day.

"Ishq Vishk Rebound" is a modern take on love stories, aiming to capture the essence of contemporary romance. However, it has struggled to make a significant impact on its audience, both critically and commercially. The film opened to lackluster reviews, which has been reflected in its box office performance.
Early trend reports from Sacnilk indicate that "Ishq Vishk Rebound" garnered a modest 8.5 million INR on its opening day. These figures, although preliminary and subject to slight adjustments with the release of official data, highlight the film's underwhelming debut.
A Sequel That Falls Short
The original "Ishq Vishk," released in 2003, was a superhit, starring Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao. The sequel, produced by Ramesh Taurani with a budget of 200 million INR, has not managed to capture the same magic. Critics have been harsh, pointing out that the story is clichéd and lacks innovation, merely recycling old tropes with a fresh cast. This has significantly affected its appeal, leading to a disappointing start at the box office.

Challenges and Competition
The film's struggle is further compounded by strong competition from other releases like "Munja" and "Chandu Champion." These films have overshadowed "Ishq Vishk Rebound," drawing away potential audiences and impacting its earnings.
Hope Amidst Adversity
Despite the poor opening, the makers of "Ishq Vishk Rebound" remain optimistic. There is hope that the film might gain traction over the weekend as word-of-mouth potentially draws more viewers. However, this optimism is tempered by the reality of the fierce competition and the critical reception it has received.
