Controversy

Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Abhay Deol had a falling out with music company T-Series after the composers from his film Shankar Ehsaan Loy were asked to sign, what they believed to be illegal clauses which would hand over their [the author's] rights to royalty over to the music company.[11] Abhay Deol took to social media and blamed T-Series for delaying the music launch of his film as well as not promoting the movie due to him and the composers not agreeing to sign the documents. This allegation was denied by T-Series who claimed that they had uploaded 3 songs from the movie on its YouTube page and claimed "In the absence thereof [of appropriate agreements], we cannot be expected to release music when there is no clarity with respect to the rights granted to the producer" [12] In another statement, T-Series expressed the fact that they had been assured by the company Viacom 18 that they owned all the rights (including the music rights) and that they did not understand why they were being dragged into this dispute which should be between Mr. Deol and Viacom 18.[13] T-Series eventually relinquished their hold on the music rights after a campaign was run by the composers and artists against the music company.[11] Eventually the music for the film was launched after music companies Crecendo and Unisys who took over, with the former releasing the physical copies and the latter releasing the digital copies of the music online.[14] The music was released 5 days before the films theatrical release.

Boxoffice

One By Two collected Rs 2.25-2.50 crore nett in its first week, mostly from multiplexes in Mumbai and Delhi. Box Office India called the business "very poor".[15]
