Universal Pictures’ romantic-comedy, You, Me & Tuscany grossed ₦38.2 million in its first week at the Nigerian box office. 

 

According to data from the Cinema Exhibitors Association of Nigeria (CEAN), this figure includes a ₦24.1 million three-day weekend debut and a ₦14.1 weekend haul. This was enough to lodge in second place at the Nigerian box office, only behind The Return of Arinzo’s ₦72.7 million but above The Super Mario Galaxy Movie’s ₦24.6 million.
