Keep reading for a detailed day 3 report!
How much did Ishqan De Lekhe earn at the Indian box office in 3 days?
The Punjabi romantic drama was theatrically released on March 6. It opened at 35 lakh, and since reviews and word of mouth have been decent, the film grew over the first weekend.

Budget and recovery
Ishqan De Lekhe was reportedly made at a budget of 10 crore. Against this cost, it has earned 1.69 crore net in 3 days, thus recovering 16.9% or 17% of the budget. Such a recovery in the opening weekend could be considered decent, but the film will need to stay steady and show minimal drops during the weekdays, at least for the first two weeks.
