83 starring Ranveer Singh, who played Kapil Dev for the first time on-screen for an exhilarating turn at sports documentary, found themselves in success after months of struggle. Hitting the box office and running only just below Covid-19’s performance ever since, even though it was seen by people when it came out late last year – 83 has done astonishingly well and shown how keen audiences were despite production difficulties; what with or without this aforementioned drug and America still refusing to open up access to movie theaters (the nation occupying roughly 25% of entertainment market). With Audiences showing appreciation…

Ranveer Singh-starring blockbuster, 83released last month in December; directed by Kabir Khan, the film opened on a strong note. Nonetheless, biopic about the famous Indian victory during 1983’s World Cup didn’t grab audiences outside of metropolitan cities as much -which caused the success of this release to falter over time. But yesterday, it successfully reached one hundred crore rupees domestically (a little more than three-quarters of U.S. dollars) in total lifetime revenue earnings across theaters located within India itself. It seemed also that foreigners’ reception for this particular release surpassed its domestic counterpart -after all people from overseas accounted for…

The Nitesh Tiwari-directed film Chhichhore starring the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput that was released in 2019 had opened on a good note only to have been afflicted by an increasingly deadly pandemic. Despite this unfortunate turn of events, however, it still managed to bring in 2.07 million USD [Rs. 15.31 cr.] within the span of one week while competing against big Hollywood films such as Avengers: Endgame, Captain Marvel, and Alita: Battle Angel. With much lesser business than the aforementioned blockbuster films from India (i.e., Baahubali – The Conclusion, Secret Superstar, Dangal), Chhichhore nevertheless continues running steadily due to…

Not more than 25% of the screens in the country are currently operational which means there is barely anything for people to watch at cinemas these days. There’s only 3 movies playing – Pushpa, 83 and Spider-Man: No Way Home. This was not what we wanted, it looked like things were going well during November and December but now we’re back to square one once again. As a result, the effect has been seen on films like Pushpa too; its Hindi version saw an inevitable decline. The film had been doing fairly well for over three weeks and yet, when…

It came, it surprised and left quite an impression. That may very well be how we would describe the movie hit-film Pushpa (Hindi) which has now completed four weeks at the box office. The film thrived from success to success for the first three weeks and made us all excited about what kind of euphoric feeling this will bring to those who do want to see it at the single screens. But then, theatres shut down once again so suddenly in its fourth week – with that happening, there was a sudden decline in people coming over during its final…

The Ranveer Singh starrer 83, directed by Kabir Khan released a while back but after taking off on a flying note, business slowed down. Movies are usually popular in the big cities but not so much anywhere else. This hurt the movie even more because only 3 weeks had passed since it came out and the money was already starting to run dry. But now 83 has managed to collect few additional crore rupees which was then an immense relief for them. Reaching the cumulative of Rs. 5.27 crore in its third week, the total earnings of ’83’ has reached…

83 is now the second Hindi release of this year to hit a hundred crore at the box office. They were followed by Sooryavanshi which ended its run after two decades and collected Rs. 196 crores so far. This weekend 83 passed the Rs. 100 crore mark with an accumulative worth of over Rs. 110 crore – but they had been gaining speed even before then, consistently doing well since their initial opening weekend (Rs=1.47 crores). Unfortunately, 83 is just shy of crossing one billion in revenue- when considered together for all languages including Tamil and Telugu dubs Bollywood’s box…

83 has been doing poorly at the box office and recent revenues have been less than one million rupees. It may drop below this number today if revenue does not improve, because only Rs. 1.12 crore was earned yesterday of which many places in different states have stopped showing movies altogether or cut off show times to 12 am instead of 9 pm. The current situation is dismal; no matter how hard I try, there are barely any people who want to watch my film, let alone pay money for it when these factors take hold of everything else. It…

Kabir Khan directed, Ranveer Singh starring 83, released on December 24th for the Christmas season just weeks before. With two years of anticipation and buildup due to its story portraying India’s 1983 World Cup win against West Indies, it was an eagerly awaited film. The release had excited critics who praised it and predicted great success financially. Yet after only a week in theaters 83 is one of the lowest-grossing films ever made by an Indian director – less than $10 million domestically so far according to Business Insider – despite being a hit elsewhere including overseas where it grossed…
