The Ajay Devgn-starring thriller Drishyam has been released for 25 days at the Chinese box office. While it had a rather lackluster opening, and despite its many differences from previous Bollywood films shown in China, Drishyam is struggling to find success there.

After opening with a phenomenal Rs. 27.50 crores on Friday, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness had a successful Saturday as well. Rs. 26 crores* more were added to this day which is very promising for such an event film- normally they make around Rs. 40 crores* on the first day via advance bookings and it settles down from there onwards.* What really brought this situation into clear relief was the fact that opening day collections for RRR in Hindi were Rs. 20.07 crores, and yet Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness managed to make more than that…
The Drishyam starring Ajay Devgn was released 24 days ago in China. The release had a slow start at the box-office and due to lack of interest it started losing its grip on people who came to watch it during this time period.

Now on Day 24, Drishyam has drawn in an additional $140,000 more than its previous gross revenue. With a total of $3.84 million [Rs. 29.55 crore], it is now the…

Yet another success in theatre this time around – the Hindi version of KGF: Chapter 2 has grossed an impressive Rs. 46.79 crores so far at the box office! It doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon either, considering that it was only released two days ago (on Good Friday) and there are no public holidays this weekend. This means that come Monday, we’ll see a significant jump in numbers as well before its release in Telugu on Wednesday of next week! So far, the movie has collected a whopping Rs. 100.74 crore and is well on its way…
Over the course of these last two years, with theaters usually being abandoned due to outbreaks of Covid, or opting for On Demand (OTT) Streaming Services, things have seemed less than rosy. With threats of Covid dissipating and theaters reopening, a surprising amount of movies are going back out onto the big screen again. This ranges from Sooryvanshi – which was released over six months ago- all the way through to Gangubai Kathiawadi – which is still playing in theatres right now! Also seeing success among audiences recently are Regional Films such as Pushpa – The Rise. And it’s not…
