MUMBAI : Ishq Vishk, released in 2003, a movie that showed the innocence, cuteness and complications of college romance was loved by the audience and is considered as one of the most memorable movies by the 90s kids.
The Ken Ghosh directorial had a pretty impressive cast too as it consisted of Shahid Kapoor, Shenaz Treasurywala and Amrita Rao. The trio became an instant hit but what caught everyone’s attention was Shahid Kapoor, the chocolaty star of that movie who made his debut with it.
On the other hand, Nipun Dharmadhikari brought ‘Ishq Vishk Rebound’ for the new generation and this movie is a remake of the 2003 movie. This time, the movie cast features actors like Jibraan Khan, Rohit Saraf, Naila Grrewal and Pashmina Roshan.

While Ishq Vishk became a memorable movie for all the 90s kids, the rebooted version turned out in such a way that even GenZs stayed away from it. The remade songs were once again not so well-made except for the title track that comes out of nowhere in the movie. However, the original song Soni Soni is being appreciated and loved by everyone.
All things aside, no one can beat the craze of Ishq Vishk and the kind of love that the original cast members received from the audience.
Ishq Vishk Rebound released on 21st June and the opening day collections were around Rs 1 Cr. The movie made around Rs 3.55 Cr. On the other hand, the 2003 movie Ishq Vishk, the OG, made around Rs 8.5 Cr. If we compare the two, we must take into account the timing of these movies as the currency rates differ but let’s make things interesting and give you a calculated number counting in the inflation. According to that, Ishq Vishk collected around Rs 29 Cr net. The figures look impossible for the rebooted version to cross and it’ll be interesting to see if it will actually cross the mark or not.
