In this article we take a close look at whether or not Panipat turned out to be profitable for its producers. Given its budget of Rs. 90 crores (approximately $14 million USD) and the fact that it has only collected Rs. 30 crores domestically ($4 million USD), Panipat will only make around…
There will soon be a third installment of the movie series that began with Dabangg! There have been many movies which reuse actors, but are different in other ways. Yet, few movies can provide an interesting story or even bring back the same characters – and those tend to do well among audiences because they provide another aspect to the narrative without disrupting it.

He’s even got both double and…

Mardaani 2 Box Office – Mardaani 2 does well in first week, deserves to be stable for next 2-3 weeks
Mardaani 2 managed to secure Rs. 28 crores* in its first week of release, starting off relatively slow but managing to pick up momentum over time.

This would have made it easier for the film to cross Rs. 30 crores in its first…

Opening day numbers for the movie were lower than expected. The film only made Rp. 24.5 crores and not many saw this coming. It was clear that protests in some parts of India affected attendance rates but it is also true that excitement about seeing a…
