When Junaid Khan made his OTT debut with ‘Maharaj’, he got huge appreciation. After that came his first release, ‘Loveyappa’, opposite Khushi Kapoor, which was a poor box office success. However, when it was released on the digital platform, the film received decent reviews. Now in 2026, Junaid Khan is back on the big screen again with a love drama titled ‘Ek Din’. She made her Hindi debut with this film alongside one of the most loved stars of the South, Sai Pallavi. However, neither this pairing nor the buzz of Sai’s Hindi debut seems to be able to bring the audience to the theatres. Releasing on May 1, 2026, ‘Ek Din’ saw a sluggish opening at the box office; He took out a little over 1 million.
