Mumbai, March 19 - Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios' Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the fourth instalment in the Tom Holland-led superhero series, got its first official trailer recently, and it created history as expected when it comes to viewership. However, what was not expected was the viewership numbers, which went through the roof in the first 24 hours. According to Variety, the trailer of Brand New Day, which was released on Wednesday (March 18), has become the biggest trailer of all time with an unheard-of 718.6 million views in the first 24 hours. The Spidey broke the record by almost 2x margin, beating the previous record held by Marvel's Deadpool and Wolverine, which had 365 million views across social media platforms. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) In fact, the Brand New Day trailer broke the biggest viewership record in just eight hours when it recorded 373 million views.

The 718.6 million views for the Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer are not only the highest ever in film history, but also the biggest ever trailer launch.

It is scheduled to be released on July 31st. Stay tuned...

BY CHRISTA LINCY

Amazon Prime Video has officially unveiled its 2026 content slate, featuring over 40 titles across original series, returning seasons, and films. The lineup reflects an aggressive expansion strategy, combining star-led projects with content-driven storytelling while continuing to strengthen its presence across multiple Indian languages. A major highlight of the slate is the return of several established franchises. Popular shows like Panchayat, Call Me Bae, Inspector Rishi, Vadhandhi: The Mystery of Mani, Farzi, Dahaad, Sapne Vs Everyone, and The Traitors are set to return with new seasons. This signals a clear shift towards building long-term franchises, a strategy that has proven effective in retaining audiences and sustaining platform engagement over time. The slate also introduces a wide range of new original series such as Matka King, Storm, Exam, Gully, Rakh, The Revolutionaries, and Pyramid Scheme. These titles span multiple genres including crime, drama, youth-centric stories, and real-world inspired narratives, indicating a balanced content mix aimed at diverse audience segments.

Mohanlal's Drishyam 3 Gets Postponed Amid Gulf War

BY SUNIT JANGIR

Kochi, March 20 - Superstar Mohanlal's much-awaited third instalment of the Drishyam franchise is set to be postponed as tensions escalate in the Gulf region. The film, directed by Jeethu Joseph, was scheduled to release on April 3rd, but the current geopolitical situation has raised concerns among the makers. According to industry buzz, the decision to reconsider the release plan stems from the importance of the Gulf market for Malayalam cinema. Films led by Mohanlal have traditionally performed exceptionally well in countries across the Middle East, contributing a significant share to their overall box office collections. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) With the ongoing conflict creating uncertainty around the theatrical business in the region, the makers are set to push the release date back, and the official announcement is expected to be made soon. Drishyam 3 holds immense significance as it is expected to conclude the story of Georgekutty, one of the most iconic characters in Indian cinema. The franchise began with the critically acclaimed Drishyam (2013) and continued its success with Drishyam 2 (2021), both of which received widespread appreciation for their gripping storytelling and performances. Given the massive anticipation surrounding the film, any delay could have a notable impact on its box office prospects. Stay tuned...

Dhurandhar 2 Day 1 Box Office Collection: Misses Pushpa 2 Record, Emerges as One of India's Biggest Opening Day Grosser

BY SACNILK TEAM

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge opened to a strong start at the box office, collecting ₹102.55 Cr net across 21,728 shows on its first day in India. With this, the film's total India gross stands at ₹172.63 Cr,while the overseas gross has reached ₹64.00 Cr, taking the worldwide total to ₹236.63 Cr. The total India net collections are currently at ₹145.55 Cr, factoring in early adjustments. The language-wise breakdown highlights that the film's opening was driven overwhelmingly by the Hindi version, which contributed ₹99.10 Cr with a strong 73.6% occupancy. Other languages had a comparatively limited impact, with Telugu collecting ₹2.12 Cr, Tamil ₹1.16 Cr, Malayalam ₹0.09 Cr, and Kannada ₹0.08 Cr. Occupancy levels in these markets remained moderate to low, reflecting the impact of delayed releases and show cancellations in select regions. The data indicates that while the film had a pan-India release, its Day 1 performance was largely concentrated in the Hindi belt. For Bollywood films, it ranks as the top Day 1 opener in terms of net collections, with the Hindi version contributing ₹99.10 crore. This surpasses the opening day figures of Jawan (₹75 crore), Pathaan (₹57 crore), Animal (₹63.80 crore), and Stree 2 (₹52 crore), establishing a new benchmark for Hindi cinema openings. In terms of all-time Day 1 net collections in India, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has secured a position among the top openers in Indian cinema. • Pushpa: The Rule – Part 2 – ₹164 Cr • RRR – ₹133 Cr • KGF Chapter 2 – ₹116 Cr • Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge – ₹103 Cr • Kalki 2898 AD – ₹95 Cr (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The Day 1 totals have been revised to account for show cancellations and ticket refunds in select regions. A few regional dubbed versions faced delays in censor certification, which resulted in temporary screening disruptions across certain markets. Despite these limitations, the film maintained a solid opening, indicating strong audience demand. The film also registered record-breaking traction in advance sales, clocking a staggering 109K tickets sold within a single hour on BookMyShow, surpassing the previous peak of around 107.60K tickets per hour set by Pushpa 2: The Rule. This makes Dhurandhar 2 the fastest-selling film in terms of hourly ticket sales on the platform. Trade estimates further suggest that the Day 1 collections could have been higher by approximately 15–20 percent if all regional dubbed versions had released as scheduled, as delays in censor approvals and resultant show cancellations in select markets limited its full opening-day potential. This places Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge in the fourth position among the biggest Day 1 openers based on India net collections. While it did not surpass the top three benchmarks, it has comfortably entered the top tier of opening day performers. The impact of the initial show cancellations remains an important factor in evaluating the Day 1 performance. Trade estimates suggest that uninterrupted screenings across all regional versions could have resulted in a higher opening figure. However, the current numbers still reflect a strong start given the scale of release. With a worldwide gross of ₹236.63 Cr on Day 1, the film has established a solid base. The performance over the extended weekend and its hold across key territories will now determine its overall box office trajectory.

Dhurandhar 2 Telugu Version Cleared but No Shows: Why Makers Held Back Release Despite Strong Demand

BY CHRISTA LINCY

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has faced an unusual release situation in its non-Hindi markets, particularly in Telugu, despite strong anticipation around its pan-India rollout. The film was originally planned for a simultaneous multi-language release, with premieres scheduled from the evening of March 18. However, delays in completing censor formalities for the dubbed versions resulted in the cancellation of premieres and multiple Day 1 shows across non-Hindi languages. As a result, the film effectively opened only in Hindi on its first day, while Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam versions remained unavailable in most centres. This significantly impacted the film's reach in key southern markets, where advance bookings had already indicated decent interest. The censor process for the Telugu and other dubbed versions has now been completed, and the final content has been delivered to theatres. Despite this, shows continue to face cancellations even after certification, creating confusion among exhibitors and audiences. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Trade sources indicate that the producers have opted to officially align the release of all dubbed versions from the following day, aiming to capitalise on the Ramzan festive period. This strategic delay is expected to provide a more uniform and wider rollout across regions, rather than a staggered or partial release. With this decision, the Telugu version and other dubbed formats will begin full-fledged screenings from tomorrow instead of Day 1. Notably, there had been uncertainty surrounding the Telugu release even in the days leading up to the premiere, with minimal clarity from the makers regarding its rollout plan. The delay and continued cancellations have led to disappointment among audiences, especially in Telugu-speaking regions where there was considerable anticipation for the film. The absence of shows over the first two days has impacted initial momentum in these markets, although the revised release timing could help recover some ground over the extended weekend. From a box office perspective, the delayed release of dubbed versions has also had a direct bearing on the film's opening day numbers, with trade estimates suggesting that a simultaneous multi-language launch could have resulted in a higher overall Day 1 total.

Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge Regional Paid Premieres Cancelled Across South India Due to Technical Content Delays

BY SACNILK TEAM

The highly anticipated paid premiere shows of the action thriller Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge have faced a total shutdown across all South Indian regional languages this evening. Following confirmed reports from Tamil Nadu and the Telugu states, it has now been verified that the Kannada and Malayalam dubbed versions have also been hit by the same technical hurdles. This widespread disruption is attributed to a critical delay in the delivery of digital content and the required Key Delivery Message from the production house, affecting every regional language master scheduled for the March 18 previews. In the Telugu states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, the situation reached a boiling point as major multiplexes in Hyderabad, Vizag, and Vijayawada officially cancelled their Telugu language premiere shows. While some screens attempted to wait for the content until 6:00 PM, the non-arrival of the digital files forced a full cancellation. To manage the massive crowds and record-breaking advance bookings, several exhibitors in these regions have replaced the Telugu shows with the original Hindi version accompanied by English subtitles, while many others have initiated full refunds for disappointed fans. Similar logistical failures have been confirmed in the Karnataka and Kerala circuits. In Bengaluru and other major cities in Karnataka, the Kannada dubbed version remained unplayable due to the late upload of the final digital master. Likewise, in Kerala, Malayalam premiere shows in hubs like Kochi and Trivandrum were called off just an hour before the scheduled start. Industry insiders indicate that while the original Hindi master was stabilized earlier in the day, a technical glitch in the post-production pipeline for the regional dubs prevented the content from being ingested into the digital cinema systems across the southern territories. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The impact in Tamil Nadu was also noted, with many exhibitors such as Vetri Cinemas and Vettri Theatres issuing formal apologies to ticket holders. Vettri Theatres noted that both the Tamil and Hindi versions at their venue were initially delayed, while Vetri Cinemas confirmed that their Tamil paid premieres across multiple locations were cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances. As a temporary solution, these theaters are also offering the Hindi version with English subtitles to those who still wish to attend the evening screenings. This localized content crisis has resulted in a significant loss of preview revenue in the South, which had shown immense interest in the sequel. Production sources state that they are working to ensure that all KDM and digital content issues for the Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam versions are fully resolved before the official wide release on the morning of March 19. For current ticket holders, exhibitors have announced that refunds for online bookings will be processed automatically, while box office purchases can be settled immediately at the counters. The focus now shifts to a stable all-language debut tomorrow to salvage the films massive box office potential.

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge Witnesses Phenomenal Momentum on BookMyShow; Sequel Eyes a Historical Landmark as it Chases the All Time Highest Hourly Sales Record Set by Pushpa 2

BY SACNILK TEAM

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has officially secured its position among the elite performers in Indian cinema history following its explosive theatrical release. The film recorded a peak hourly ticket sale of 73.92K on BookMyShow, making it the eighth-highest hourly performer when excluding pre-sale focused data from other upcoming releases. This momentum highlights the strong audience pull of the sequel, which is currently trending with immense intensity across the country. While the first installment of the franchise had previously set a high benchmark of 77K tickets per hour, the sequel is maintaining a consistent pace that suggests a long and successful theatrical run. The record for the highest hourly sales in the history of the platform is currently held by Pushpa 2: The Rule, which achieved a staggering peak of 107.65K tickets in a single hour. This is followed by the sci-fi epic Kalki 2898 AD, which saw a peak of 95.71K tickets, surpassing previous records held by major Bollywood blockbusters. Other top performers in this prestigious list include Kantara Chapter 1 with 87.9K tickets and Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan, which recorded 86K tickets during its peak period. The top five is rounded off by the Tamil blockbuster Leo, which achieved 82.4K tickets per hour, showcasing the massive pan-India demand for high-budget action cinema. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Further down the list, Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal remains a strong contender with a peak of 80.15K hourly sales, reflecting its massive footfalls and historical status on the platform. Following Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge at the eighth spot is Border 2, which has shown incredible demand with a peak of 72K tickets per hour. The tenth spot is currently occupied by the horror-comedy Stree 2, which recorded 69.23K tickets. The inclusion of Dhurandhar 2 in this list is a testament to the franchise's growth and the audience's appetite for high-stakes intelligence thrillers in the current market. The current intensity of Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge points toward a potential entry into the elite 1000 crore net club. By combining high-quality filmmaking with a story that appeals to everyone, the movie is seeing an incredible response from the public, which is causing tickets to sell at a record-breaking speed on online booking platforms. As the movie continues to dominate the ticket windows, these steady sales show it will likely stay popular for many weeks to come. It has the potential to match the total earnings of other massive hit films, and it will be interesting to see if it can eventually overtake the huge record set by Pushpa 2.
