Despite releasing just last month, Pushpa: The Rise – Part 1 has been able to continually run successfully. As it steadily made progress in the box office race, it became known for being one of the best-selling films of this year– and still is! Even with its extravagant release, there are still people coming out every day to watch Pushpa; including over 700 thousand during week 7 alone! Despite the Allu Arjun starrer Pushpa: The Rise being released earlier this month, it continues to do great business and earn a lot of revenue at theaters. On its seventh week alone…
The Sanjay Leela Bhansali-directed film starring Alia Bhatt, Gangubai Kathiawadi was one of the most successful films to hit theaters this year. Opening on a positive note, which was only built from there as it went strong for two weeks consecutively, now with its second weekend approaching, it shows no signs of slowing down either. In this box office report, we take a look at the second-weekend collections of Gangubai Kathiawadi while comparing the same to previously released female-centric films. Collecting Rs. 23.29 cr Gangubai Kathiawadi surpasses the Kangana Ranaut starrer Manikarnika – The Queen of Jhansi that had collected…
Having released to impressive numbers for Alia Bhatt, Raazi was able to accumulate Rs. 123.84 crores during its entire lifetime run – an accomplishment it easily overshadowed when put up against films such as Meghna Gulzar’s Gangubai Kathiawadi, of which initial expectations were low – thus holding onto a strong touch-and-go presence since the very first Women’s Day screening on March 8th (to what would eventually amount to a whopping Rs. 104 crore). It seems as though things are only beginning, too; with good showings early Wednesday and Thursday afternoon signaling the end of a successful first week which saw…
A blockbuster movie called Pushpa will come to an end soon because it has earned Rs. 108.5 crores total so far. But Gangubai Kathiawadi will continue its climb up the charts, earning even more than that within the next few days, if not this coming Sunday or by Friday’s film release date for that matter. Not only does it have a chance of exceeding those numbers, but Gangubai Kathiawadi is also expected to make over what was made from Manikarnika – The Queen of Jhansi (Rs 73.3 Cr) in less than two weeks worth of time since release. This can…
Actor Akshay Kumar is getting ready to release his latest film Bachchhan Paandey co-starring Kriti Sanon, Arshad Warsi, and Jacqueline Fernandez. Recently at a press conference of the new movie, Akshay spoke with the media about what he had planned next and how difficult it was to deliver films that would make money. When asked if there was ever any pressure when making decisions, Akkhays said I try not to put too much pressure on myself. I just want to live life without feeling too stressed or worried all the time. He also talked about hoping each of his movies…
Let us start this story with some good news. With multiple movies competing for awards, viewers are given many options to make decisions from when it comes to what they want see. The Kashmir Files is a grounded drama while Radhe Shyam offers fantasy. If Gangubai Kathiawadi is an all-too-realistic account of one woman’s life then Batman is just escapism fable. Because of this variety in viewing experiences, the number of people who go out and attend screenings has increased dramatically in recent weeks. A new and mysterious video created curiosity among people worldwide. What made it all the more…
Alia Bhatt and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gangubai Kathiwari’s booming success at the box office is unsurprising, given that they beat out others to be number one 2 years ago. This doesn’t only speak volumes about their talent but also indicates that there are new challenges facing cinema- including managing film budgets to account for an unexpected dip in revenue. Though past successes suggest we’re headed back in a positive direction, it’ll take time for cinema to fully recover from what brought them down. Given these challenges, we can all revel in how this excellent triumph signals an optimistic future for…
When the first previews started for Amitabh Bachchan and Nagraj Manjule’s Jhund, people began to talk about it at length. As if it were happening before the pandemic took over – high profile movies had celebrity and media screenings where news would travel far and wide on social media through coverage. So, it wasn’t surprising when some big names supported the film just from what they had seen in previews alone. Although this is unlikely to happen, many people hope it does. Reviews for this movie so far have been mostly positive, and most of them range from just okay…
Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the film Gangubai Kathiawadi starring Alia Bhatt was released last week and has been making money ever since. After an initial impressive start, audiences were flocking to theaters all across India for this movie during its opening weekend. Despite there being few hits in recent weeks for cinema-goers to choose from, Gangubai Kathiawadi still managed to make a whopping Rs. 68.93 crores domestically after one week in theaters. In this box office report we take a look at how Gangubai Kathiawadi fared in different territories while breaking the same down based on geographical regions. We…
With a distinctive local flavor to it, Amitabh Bachchan starred Jhund saw better collections on Saturday as Rs. 2.10 crores came in. Of course, a large part of this number has come from the state of Maharashtra and that was anticipated too because of its heavy localized appeal. In fact, without Amitabh Bachchan leading the charge, even these numbers would have been difficult to reach; let alone thinking about finding an audience outside Maharashtra given how restricted this film is when it comes down to who will see it – considering how there are only slums depicted throughout which cuts…
