Released just last month, the romantic comedy movie Puaada starring Ammy Virk and Sonam Bajwa has gained a lot of traction since it opened. The film is still playing to full houses across theaters in India despite being well past its release date, bringing in approximately Rs 45 lakhs ($69800) after three weeks. This brings Puaada’s total revenues up to 6.11 crores ($1,121,470), which is nearly 3 times more than it was earning at this point last year (5.33 crores). There are no indications that attendance will decline anytime soon either – so we can expect these numbers to keep…
The popular action flick, Bellbottom starring Akshay Kumar premiered just a few weeks ago. Despite being the first movie out in theaters since Covid-19’s halt production, everyone was looking forward to how it would do financially. At first, it lagged behind with dismal earnings until about half way through when people actually caught on and finally started watching it. Sunday came around with more than half of Bellbottom sold out tickets – dragging in close to 3 times what its most recent screening brought in on Friday – because people were starting to catch onto this new passion project by…
The latest Bollywood film starring Akshay Kumar entitled Bellbottoms was well received among critics. Yet, due to the ongoing restrictions on Covid-19s and other antibiotics in India – theater attendance was low. This is unsurprising considering that there are only 53 screens playing the film so far at the United Kingdom box office during its first week out. Nonetheless, despite these odds, it has already grossed an estimated $141,640 US Dollars or ₹1.04 crore rupees [$4 million] for its first two weeks at this country alone!

Chehre had a lackluster start in the box office today, according to early estimates. Per industry predictions, Chehre will do well and might make close to 60 lakh rupees on its first day due to its release being held at 800 theater outlets and 1000 screens nationwide. Out of all Indian states, Delhi showed the most enthusiasm for the film with very high attendance rates when compared to other states. Experts are looking forward to seeing whether this trend will continue over the course of the next few days so that they can give an accurate prediction about how well…
Yesterday, we witnessed the release of Amitabh Bachchan – Emraan Hashmi starrer Chehre. Unfortunately, this opening weekend started out slowly with predictions indicating that it would only worsen from here onwards. On the other hand, Akshay Kumar’s Bellbottom continues to do well at the box office despite having been released earlier this year. Reports indicate that Chehre was able to generate Rs. 40 lakhs on Day 1, a rather mediocre opening that is currently being attributable to the low-key reviews and the ongoing Covid-19 protocol which has greatly diminished occupancy rates in theatres. Bellbottom -which received positive feedback from its…
Last week’s release, Bell Bottom starring Akshay Kumar and Vaani Kapoor has slowed down further at the box-office. The film has collected in the range of Rs. 80 to 90 lakhs on the ninth day, taking the total collection around Rs. 19.50 crore mark (which would be $2 million USD). The Akshay Kumar film stayed weak on the weekdays, but one expects it to record a better trend at the box office. It is now looking at lifetime collections around $30 million USD after approximately 9 days ($3 million USD per year). While Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada and Punjabi industries…
The latest Akshay Kumar starrer Bellbottom just opened this past week. It was the first film to do so since theaters reopened after the lockdown; all attention fell on its numbers during opening weekend. There was a slow start, but it caught up quickly when it reached peak business hours. After drawing in an impressive Rs. 12.75 cr. at the box office within three days of theatrical release, the momentum carried through until Bellbottom came out with its weekly revenue figures showing around Rs 17 crores (Approx $2 million). Days later, it continues to exceed expectations and has collected over…
When Bellbottom was released, it received positive reviews from critics. However, film lovers stayed away because of the Covid-19 regulations that were imposed on theatres across India. Overseas reactions are promising – with two hundred screens opening in North America alone! Impressive numbers? Yes! But these numbers make up for only half what they should be. If we break it down for you, you’ll see how much money gets lost just because there are fewer cinema screens available to people around the world who want to watch a show on Bellbottom’s opening weekend. In detail… USA box office Day 1…
Critics had mostly positive things to say about the film Bellbottom, starring actor Akshay Kumar; however, due to strict limitations on Covid-19 drugs, people who typically attend movies did not go out as much. Internationally, the movie was released across 53 theaters in its first week. With a box office report looking at its earnings in the United Kingdom, they found that it had made just shy of $120 thousand dollars (or around Rs. 88 lakhs) after one week in theaters.

According to most recent news sources, Akshay Kumar’s latest action-entertainer was due for release in theaters all around the world. But there were obstacles because of censorship issues in U.A.E (the United Arab Emirates), so it was released a day later than originally planned; before censorship could make an issue out of it, they authorized the film for distribution within the country. When it finally came out on over 65 screens, the Bollywood blockbuster Bellbottom had already opened at a total gross take of Rs 2 crore [2 million]! Even though that was enough to make it one of the…
