Kabir Singh has continued to dominate the Indian box office even over the second weekend, earning more than Rs 17 crore on both Saturday and Sunday. The romantic drama film has already become the highest solo grosser in Shahid Kapoor's career. And with a solid second weekend performance, it is inching closer to the Rs 200 crore mark.
Despite the release of Ayushmann Khurrana's Article 15, and the India vs England Cricket World Cup match on Sunday, Kabir Singh held strong in theatres. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the numbers at the end of Day 10 of the film's run at the box office.

The film is a remake of the Telugu blockbuster Arjun Reddy, and it seems the good luck of the original has rubbed off on the remake. Despite negative reviews and criticism, the film has found favour among the audience. It was panned for its celebration of toxic masculinity and portraying a violent, abusive and misogynist male lead.
