Another Friday and another unsuccessful weekend for Bollywood film premieres. Normally, this type of a movie would open to about 8-10 crores but instead they’ve opened around 3 crores each (Runway 34, Jersey, Attack). It seems this Jayeshbhai Jordaar is going down the same path; it’s just barely managed to open at Rs. 3.25 Crores with little expectation that anything will change over time. One way or another, people don’t seem interested in seeing this film despite the trailer – though not making things worse than they already are isn’t really something you can do either… With a social subject…
Yesterday Ranveer Singh starred in the blockbuster Jayeshbhai Jordaar. Released across over 2,250 theaters domestically, with high expectations but less-than-stellar reviews, the film failed to attract viewers and ended up having dismal box office numbers. Stuck at 9th place on last year’s chart for opening day collections (with only 3.25 crores,) Jeyshebhai Jordaar underperformed both past hits like Attack – Part One (3 crores) and released disappointments like The Kashmir Files (3.5 crores). But despite lagging behind these benchmarks of success, Jeyshebhai Jordaar’s performance cannot be ignored for two reasons: firstly because those were far bigger movies than what was…
With newer films releasing, it was uncertain if Runway 34 would make money. After opening poorly and facing tough competition from the other movies like KGF- Chapter 2, they were able to manage over Rs. 27 crore in profit after being screened for two weeks. As of now they’ve managed to pull in an additional 7 crores within these last few days alone. Overall they’ve made just under 30 crore rupees so far; which might even climb higher if this trend continues! In its second week of release, the movie Runway 34 was met with stiffer competition when Doctor Strange…
The Anupam Kher-starring Kashmir Films, after releasing a week ago is doing exceptionally well at the box office. Just today it crossed Rs. 200 crore – all within two weeks! In these eight days only it has already managed to cross Rs. 116 crore mark, and stands with an ambitious aim to rake up double this amount before it ends its 2-week run! And if that wasn’t enough for those eagerly waiting for good news, directors Anurag Kashyap’s Mukkabaaz and Raja Krishna Menon’s Vikram Vedha are also keeping in touch right behind along with Vivek Agnihotris The Kashmir Files which…
The Kashmir Files, a project by director Vivek Agnihotri, emerged victorious at the box office this past week. Opening to an average response on the first day of release with collections exceeding Rs.3.5 crore, this movie steadily increased its revenue over the next few days for both weekends and weekday showings alike. On Day 8 now – one week after The Kashmir Records’ debut – it has managed to cross Rs.100 crore off total earnings so far amounting to Rs.19 crore on that particular day alone; thus beating other recent releases such as Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra and…
In the past two years, the movie industry has been a ghost town due to the Covid Pandemic – shutting down theaters or filmmakers releasing their films on over-the-top platforms. Now that theaters are beginning to open again and Covids have been annihilated – we can expect to see many movies hit theaters! Whether it’s The Kashmir Files setting new box rater records and crossing $200 million or Ram Charan-NTR Jr.’s RRR Predictions – here are some of today’s hottest talking points from the film industry! The Kashmir Files Box Office: Film beats Bharat, Tanhaji and Chennai Express; becomes the…
The Yash starrer KGF – Chapter 2 which released a while back has been doing well at the box office. Following its initial success, the business of this film surpassed Rs. 100 cr., and then even crossed over Rs. 200 cr., and eventually reached an impressive mark of over Rs. 300 cr; all within just 22 days! Now, within just 23 days since release, it has managed to accumulate over Rs. 400 cr.; making it one of India’s highest grossing films of all time! It is undeniable, KGF – Chapter 2 has been phenomenal in the Mumbai circuit having achieved…
Despite being opposed by some members of the public, the Kashmir Files have met success at the Box Office. After earning Rs. 18- 20 crores during its first week, it has now earned over Rs. 118 crore in only 8 days. This also happened to be a huge feat for us because this was basically out of syllabus and this was something we were expecting given our experience with similar movies like these before hand. Every single screen that’s been exhibiting Kashmir Files are doing well including those who are in East India, Western India and even Southern India -…
Bachchan Paandey, a movie starring Akshay Kumar among others, did not screen in many theaters due to his fame. Despite being fewer than other films released at the same time, it made more money per theater. In comparison to The Kashmir Files starring Anupam Kher and having higher theater attendance rates when looking at total revenue generated per property – Bachchan Paandey performed better because some shows were completely sold out. Yes, the number is quite good considering all factors – but this biggie needed a start of Rs. 20 crore (at least) to make an impactful debut despite stiff…
This year’s top grossing movie at the box office is apparently an Indian film from director, Vivek Agnihotri. Released last week on Friday, it started off rather well but then began to grow exponentially in popularity as people talked about it. And it really paid off- what was originally thought to just be a one day wonder turned out to be a long lasting success story. As it earned millions over its opening weekend, even weekday profits followed suit – and after only two weeks of release, The Kashmir Files became one of the highest grossing movies this year! With…
