Indian cinema has largely experienced slow activity as of late, with only three films performing well in the box office out of a dozen or so released this year. But this week’s predictions appear to be changing given Kartik Aaryan – Kiara Advani starrer Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 has gained an advance booking rate just one-third behind Satish Kaushik – Kriti Sanon starring Imli Aur Hum, on top slots in 30 cities across India so far. It is also predicted that it could cross 50% compared to Bajrangi Bhaijaan’s first day show times, but won’t surpass Padmaavat’s all-time record opening day…
The much-hyped, expensive blockbuster Dhaakad debuted to disappointing numbers at the Box Office. The first day’s earnings had been estimated at nearly four crore Rupees ($6 million) but according to reports, it managed only about one point five crores Rupees ($2 million). It couldn’t break past a few thousand rupees through its first half-day in single theaters and failed even worse when it opened up for multiplex showings later on. In other words, all of us who were rooting for this movie had to face reality when we saw how poorly it performed today; especially considering how hard all those…
It had been an average week at theaters for the films in contention. There were three notable Indian releases over the course of a few days – one Hindi, one Bengali and one Kannada film. As expected, it was the English-language Hollywood movie that fared best among them; while its own countrymate trailed behind slightly with enough momentum to push through two weeks’ worth of showings. This will be the first time I am speaking about Jayeshbhai Jordaar. He is an actor who played in the film which managed to collect only Rs. 17.50 crore* dollars after its first week,…
Last week, the newest addition to our box offices had come out and new movies were hitting every single day but still here comes KGF Chapter 2 shining strong. Even though it came out long time ago (5 weeks ago) it’s managing to stay on top and looking like this movie will pass up other films. Recently it became one of only five films ever that have made such a big sum of money in their fifth week at the box office – so what does that mean? Let’s put things into perspective by giving you an idea about how…
Recent advanced booking rates for upcoming Indian thriller Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 are trending high, outselling new releases such as Return of Ravana and Robo 3D together in both terms of number and rupees. After less than a week, the film already tops Rupee (Rs) 20 crore earnings while newer releases such as Return of Ravana haven’t even crossed 10 crore rupees after two weeks. The film stars Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani who returns to film for her second time after successfully portraying Mary Kom through Vishal Bharadwaj’s biopic four years ago. Though it might seem like Amitabh Bachchan starrer…
So far, in 2022, the only two Hindi films that have done well are The Kashmir Files and Gangubai Kathiawadi. Incidentally, both were unconventional films. While one was a documentary about the violent events of kashmir (a region located on a border between Pakistan and India), it didn’t really follow traditional Bollywood guidelines; while the other film told an elaborate tale of prostitution which wasn’t exactly what you’d expect from typical Hindi cinema. Both passed $200 million dollars at the box office – but so far other than these two exceptions there hasn’t been anything worthwhile to watch for those…
The Kartik Aaryan – Kiara Advani starring movie Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 will premiere soon, but as it does so the film has been getting promoted around the world. It is rumored that this film will have one of the most successful debuts to date over the last few weeks. According to recent data from analysts at Box Office India, there is a strong possibility that Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 will earn enough money on its first day opening up in theaters. After promising openings in pre-release bookings, many predict that Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 will be among Kartik Aaryan’s biggest films yet.…
Since its release 4 weeks ago, the Yash starring KGF -Chapter 2 has seen sustained success. This Indian film currently has 5000 showings at theaters and still remains highly popular among audiences. Today marks 5 consecutive weeks this movie was out in theaters throughout Europe and Asia, while also holding its own against other recently released films (although they never reached its magnitude). Already past 1200 crores worldwide in revenue after just this fifth week of screenings, this is proving to be one of the most profitable Indian movies yet! In today’s box office report, we look at the worldwide…
With the release of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 the Hindi Film Industry has been revitalized in a most exceptional way. Opening last weekend with extraordinary responses across the board, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 started off in an estimated range between Rs 13.75-Rs 15.75 crore (depending on which classes performed better). Though it may seem like these numbers don’t amount to much for some, they’re already promising considering that this is only within its first week; if word spreads and interest surges from other people who would normally never watch a Bollywood film, then there could be a possibility for much greater success…
The Ranveer Singh-starring film Jayeshbhai Jordaar has recorded an unsuccessful Saturday at the box office. According to estimates, it only managed to collect between Rs. 3.95 and 4.15 crores for its third day out of an estimated 5 days run; totalling around 11.30 crore rupees in three days time with no signs of this trend changing anytime soon as fewer people come in on weekends than during weekdays (especially since many theaters had night showings canceled). It’s clear that this movie was rejected by audiences everywhere – we can’t even call these five days a successful opening weekend because there…
