Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s highly anticipated historical drama, Gangubai Kathiawadi, has garnered praise from viewers with the Monday release bringing in profits around Rs. 7.90 to 8.20 crores. With this earnings at hand, it seems that the four-day weekend total could reach upwards of Rs. 47 crore plus so far when counting up this number alone! Although foot traffic fell slightly (due to discounts), Mumbai continues to rake up profits for the movie – which had been expected as one of India’s largest cities -followed by Delhi U.P., Gujarat, Rajasthan and Nizam among others respectively too… Night time viewings increased due…
Vivek Agnihotri’s much-talked about film, The Kashmir Files, released on Friday to a mixed response. Interestingly though in the run up to its release, The Kashmir Files found itself in the midst of plenty of controversy—but with all that hype surrounding it, audiences are waiting for it with bated breath! A reflection of this was evident in its opening day collection: Rs 3.55 crores came rolling in during Saturday alone. Now on Saturday Day 2, the business of the film saw growth with Rs. 8.50 million coming in at theaters from Friday’s Box Office intake. Interestingly, the audience response to…
Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files was received well by audiences in theaters after its release on Friday, surpassing the releases of both Radhe Shyam and Gangubai Kathiawadi. Though these were larger releases than Vivek Agnihotri’s film at over 600 screens each, they failed to reap all the attention they deserved, while it had gained momentum from the excitement surrounding its arrival. On Saturday alone, The Kashmir Files brought in 8.5 crores (about $1 million) more than what was accumulated on Friday for just 650 screens; though this number will continue to grow exponentially during extended hours as even now many…
The Alia Bhatt-starring Gangubai Kathiawadi that was released sometime ago has done exceptionally well in the Box Office after an exceptional opening. It grew extensively over its first few weeks because people were going to see it regardless of pandemic protocol; much like it did for its 2nd weekend where people still went to watch the movie even though there wasn’t a need for them to do so anymore. After just ten days of being in theatres the film crossed over Rs. 100 crores earning Rs. 102.60 crores in thirteen days of release Gangubai Kathiawadi has become the first film…
Roughly ten days ago, the Sanjay Leela Bhansali film Gangubai Kathiawadi starring Alia Bhatt had its release.

With a sense of normality finally returning, plus theatre releases gradually increasing, business has been seeing an upward trend in these last couple weeks. Now thanks to the success it has seen at the box office- Rs. 102.60 cr in only thirteen days – Gangubai Kathiawadi is expected to surpass its budget limits by triple digits so far…
Let’s take a look at how positive the trend has been for exhibitors this past week. After some trouble and high doubts if audiences would show up to see these films in theaters, everything seems to be going smoothly now! Over the course of two weeks, there has been an increase in occupancy by leaps and bounds with many locations having houses full signs displayed again. Gubbi Kathaavadii led the way over the past few weeks, but it looks like The Kashmir Files took charge this weekend. Since Friday was such a big success, Thursday saw even higher numbers and…
The awaited movie that many anxiously speculated over finally came out on April 26th, the morning being spent trying to collect tickets for the afternoon show. Audiences seemed pleasantly surprised at The Kashmir Files! Albeit getting reviews a day early and getting some good attention before its release time, this movie surpassed all expectations with revenue of . (pounds).

New life and rebirth have taken a hold in my community after the uplifting ban that was put into effect prohibiting people from attending movies. This week, I am so excited to share with you all of the huge success stories we’ve had such as Vivek Agnihotri’s newest release The Kashmir Files – already making waves for itself; overtaking the top three spots for the highest grossing movies for last quarter: Padmaavat (200 crore), Singham Returns (180 crore), and 3 Idiots ($35 million). Now let me tell you about how Alia Bhatt broke another record this week. Her new film…
Industry experts rejoiced when Gangubai Kathiawadi made waves in the Indian Box Office after 3 years, but it was The Kashmir Files that took their success to another level. On its first weekend, the film earned Rs. 15.10 crores on Sunday – which is more than most thought possible – and now has raked in Rs. 15.05 crores on Monday; something unprecedented by far! When many thought this would be the film’s final total earnings, they were wrong: it seems to grow stronger each day while breaking records left and right! Industry insiders didn’t predict such astronomical figures from a…
It is looking like a return to the good times for Bollywood with two major successes. After Gangubai Kathiawadi became an unstoppable force after it went past Rs. 100 Crores, The Kashmir Files has joined its ranks in terms of pure ROI ratio – which is impressive given that the Vivek Agnihotri directed film was made on a low budget with little marketing and promotion. With revenue steadily increasing across Saturday (from Friday collections up to Rs. 8.5 crores), the film seems destined to do well through the weekend- even when considering that it’s playing at only around 700 screens…
