There have been reports suggesting that Kareena Kapoor Khan is set to be a part of filmmaker Arati Kadav’s upcoming film, which is being produced by Harman Baweja. However, the reports are not true. Clarifying the speculation surrounding the project, a source stated, “The news of Kareena Kapoor being a part of Aarti Kadav’s film, produced by Harman Baweja, is untrue. Kareena is not associated with the project, and reports suggesting otherwise are incorrect.

Aamir Khan, Sidharth Malhotra, and Tiger Shroff to come together for the first time for Race Reboot: Report

Aamir Khan is reportedly set to join hands with Sidharth Malhotra and Tiger Shroff for the much-awaited Race Reboot. The upcoming project is said to be a fresh take on the popular action thriller franchise, which originally featured Saif Ali Khan in the first two instalments before Salman Khan took the lead in the third film. The Race franchise has developed a cult following over the years, with the first two films starring Saif Ali Khan becoming popular for their high-octane action, twists and turns, and ensemble cast. Race 3, which arrived later with Salman Khan in the lead, took the series in a different direction. Now, the reboot is reportedly being planned with an entirely new star cast. While Sidharth Malhotra’s name has been associated with the project for some time, Tiger Shroff has also recently been linked to the film. According to current reports, Aamir Khan is the latest major name to be added to the much-anticipated project. A source was quoted telling Pinkvilla, “Aamir h...

Toxic debacle effect: The Odyssey storms back into IMAX screens across India just 2 days after being ousted

On August 26, Bollywood Hungama reported that The Odyssey’s shows were taken out of IMAX screens after a historic 40-day run in order to accommodate Yash-starrer Toxic. The Odyssey consistently drew audiences and managed to collect a record Rs. 90 crores, that too from just 34 IMAX screens. Remarkably, the film continued to register encouraging occupancy right until the end of its run. As a result, our report was widely shared and discussed, sending shockwaves among fans. It has now come to light that due to the underperformance of Toxic, The Odyssey has been brought back to all IMAX screens in the country, except Bengaluru. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Even on its last day, The Odyssey ran with 43% occupancy, which was unbelievable. It proved that there was a lot of gas left in the tank. Warner Bros, which distributed The Odyssey, asked for just one show in IMAX, considering the continued demand, from August 26. Sadly, the demand was not accepted as the distributors of Toxic wer...

Uorfi hospitalised, shares photos from hospital bed: “Anaesthesia ke alag maze hai bhai”

Uorfi  has sparked concern among her fans after sharing a series of pictures from a hospital bed on social media. The actor and social media personality referred to the hospital visit as her “yearly admission in the hospital”, although she did not clarify whether the remark was serious, sarcastic or related to a routine annual health check-up.   In one of the pictures, Uorfi could be seen posing from the hospital bed while the song ‘Itni Shakti Hame De Na Data’ played in the background. She subsequently shared a photograph showing an IV cannula attached to her hand and captioned it, “Worst part!” Uorfi later posted another picture from the hospital and appeared to comment on the effects of anaesthesia. She wrote, “Anesthesia k alag maze hai bhai.” However, neither Uorfi nor her team has so far shared details about the reason for her hospitalisation or revealed what medical procedure, if any, she underwent. The recent post has also brought attention to Uorfi’s previous health-relat...

Irumudi Box Office Economics: AP-Telangana delivers STUNNING Rs. 45 cr distributor share against Rs. 15 cr rights in just 5 days; generates Rs. 30 cr above theatrical acquisition price

The Ravi Teja-starrer Telugu flick, Irumudi, has emerged as one of the biggest box-office success stories in recent times, but its reported Rs. 104 crores worldwide gross in five days tells only a part of the story. What makes the film’s theatrical performance particularly noteworthy is the distributor share it has generated in comparison to the price at which its theatrical rights were reportedly acquired. According to data shared by Suniel Wadhwa, co-founder and director at film production and distribution firm Karmic Films, Irumudi has generated a worldwide distributor share of around Rs. 56 crores within its first five days. The film’s worldwide theatrical rights are said to have been valued at approximately Rs. 20 crores, excluding GST. If these estimates are taken into account, the film has already generated distributor share nearly three times its overall theatrical acquisition value. The biggest contributor has been Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The AP-TG theatrical rights wer...

Hanuman Ansh Box Office: Third-week MIRACLE! Film jumps 1,168.97% over second weekend, Rs. 6.38 cr. of its Rs. 9.05 cr. total comes in just 3 days

Hanuman Ansh has found an unexpected late surge at the box office. The film, which released on August 7, has collected Rs. 9.05 crore at the India box office in 19 days, with a significant chunk of its business coming in the last three days. What makes the recent trend particularly striking is the pace at which Hanuman Ansh has picked up. After collecting Rs. 1.57 crore by the end of its second week, the film added Rs. 6.38 crore between August 23 and August 25, accounting for a substantial portion of its overall theatrical earnings. The film collected Rs. 2.58 crore on Day 17, August 23, followed by Rs. 1.26 crore on Day 18, August 24. It then delivered another strong number on Day 19, collecting Rs. 2.54 crore on August 25.
