Top 5 Box Office Weekend Grossers (June 12-14): Haunted 3D and Obsession Emerge Winners As Ram Charan's Peddi Sees Drop

Mumbai, June 15 - The Indian box office witnessed a competitive weekend from June 12 to 14, with a mix of holdover releases and new arrivals attracting audiences across the country. While Ram Charan's Peddi comfortably retained the top position, the biggest success stories of the weekend were Obsession and Haunted 3D, both of which delivered impressive numbers and continued the recent dominance of horror films at the box office. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Peddi emerged as the highest-grossing film of the weekend, collecting an estimated 26.30 crore during the three days. Although the film experienced a noticeable drop from its opening weekend, it continued to attract audiences in Telugu states and remained the top choice among moviegoers. The sports-action drama has already established itself as one of the year's biggest box office successes and is continuing its run despite growing competition. Hollywood horror thriller Obsession secured the second spot with an excellent 17.70 crore weekend. The film once again demonstrated extraordinary staying power, registering strong occupancy across major urban centres. The horror title has become one of the biggest surprise successes of the year in India and is steadily moving toward the 100 crore milestone. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Among the new releases, Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past delivered the strongest performance. The horror sequel collected approximately 11 crore over its opening weekend and emerged as the best-performing newcomer. The interest in the horror genre helped the film overcome limited screen presence and establish itself as a successful theatrical release. Varun Dhawan, Pooja Hegde, and Mrunal Thakur's Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai put up a decent performance in the second weekend, though the overall collection is still underwhelming. Rounding out the top five was Steven Spielberg's sci-fi Hollywood thriller Disclosure Day. The film found a niche audience in multiplexes and performed reasonably well considering the crowded marketplace.

Cocktail 2 Box Office Projection: Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, Rashmika Mandanna's Sequel Eyes Double-Digit Opening

Mumbai, June 15 - Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna's much-awaited romantic comedy drama Cocktail 2 is showing promising signs at the box office ahead of its release on June 19. The film's advance booking commenced on June 14, and the initial response from audiences has been encouraging, indicating healthy anticipation for the sequel. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) In the first 24 hours of advance sales, Cocktail 2 sold approximately 11,000 tickets (without block seats) for its opening day nationwide. While the numbers are still in their early stages, the response suggests that the film has managed to generate considerable interest among moviegoers, particularly in urban multiplex circuits where romantic entertainers traditionally perform well. The positive booking trend has strengthened trade expectations for the film's opening day collection. According to early projections, Cocktail 2 is expected to open in the 12 crore to 15 crore net range in India, which would comfortably place it among the better Bollywood openings of the year. If the film manages to sustain its current booking momentum over the coming days, the higher end of that range could also come into play. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Cocktail 2 First Day Advance Booking Report The original Cocktail, released in 2012, had opened to 10.95 crore net at the Indian box office and went on to emerge as one of the most successful urban romantic dramas of its time. Based on the sequel's early pre-sales performance, Cocktail 2 appears well-positioned to surpass the opening-day collection of the first film and set a new benchmark for the franchise. Importantly, the film still has four full days remaining before release. Industry trends suggest that advance booking activity for major Bollywood releases typically accelerates significantly during the final 48 hours, particularly with spot bookings and last-minute ticket purchases contributing heavily to overall sales. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Directed by Homi Adajania, Cocktail 2 brings together Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna in a fresh romantic tale while carrying forward the brand value established by the cult 2012 hit. The film's music, star cast, and promotional campaign have all contributed to building awareness among audiences. With encouraging advance bookings, strong urban appeal, and a popular franchise name behind it, Cocktail 2 is currently on track for a double-digit opening. The next few days of pre-sales will determine whether the film can push beyond expectations and emerge as one of Bollywood's biggest romantic-comedy openings in recent years.

Shahid Kapoor's Cocktail 2 Gets A Certificate; 150-Minute Sequel Sets Kriti Sanon Milestone Selling 10,146 Opening Tickets Bollywood

Shahid Kapoor's Cocktail 2 Gets A Certificate; 150-Minute Sequel Sets Kriti Sanon Milestone Selling 10,146 Opening Tickets

The upcoming cinematic window is looking particularly packed as we approach some of the most talked-about releases of the season. At the center of this excitement is Cocktail 2, a project that has caught everyone's attention by pairing Shahid Kapoor with two of the most successful leading ladies today, Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna. While sequels often carry the burden of expectation, this one is making headlines for reasons that go far beyond just its franchise name. With its scheduled release on June 19, the conversation around the film has shifted from its chart-topping soundtrack to its surprisingly bold stance with the censors. In a surprising development, the Central Board of Film Certification has cleared Cocktail 2 with an Adults Only certificate. This rating suggests that the sequel might explore much more mature themes compared to its predecessor. Along with the rating, the official runtime has been locked at 150 minutes, which translates to exactly 2 hours and 30 minutes. This makes the sequel a slightly longer experience than the original 2012 film, which clocked in at 146 minutes and carried a more family-friendly U/A certificate. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) This certification marks a historic moment for the lead cast, particularly for Kriti Sanon. After spending twelve years in the industry, this is the first time one of her films has received an A rating. For Rashmika Mandanna, this will be her second encounter with an adult-rated Hindi film following the massive success of Animal in 2023. Shahid Kapoor, however, is no stranger to this territory. Cocktail 2 stands as the fifth adult-rated project of his career, joining a list of gritty and intense films like Kaminey, Udta Punjab, Kabir Singh, and his most recent release, O'Romeo. The decision to go with a more mature tone is an interesting shift for the franchise. The first installment was a romantic drama directed by Homi Adajania and produced by Dinesh Vijan, starring Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone, and Diana Penty. While the original team of Adajania and Maddock Films returns for the sequel, the shift from a U/A rating to an A rating, combined with the slightly longer runtime, indicates that they are aiming for a different narrative depth this time around. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The latest advance booking reports for the opening day are providing a more detailed look at the initial demand for the film. As of Monday, the Hindi 2D version has already generated 40.89 lakh in gross collections, excluding block seats. This amount has been gathered from 3,717 scheduled shows, with a total of 10,146 tickets already sold to eager fans. If we include the block seats, the overall gross figure reaches a much more substantial 1.73 crore. With the average ticket price currently set at 270 rupees, the strategy seems focused on capturing the premium multiplex crowd. These early statistics suggest a solid start, especially considering there are still several full days of booking left before the first show begins. Looking at the initial response from the audience, advance bookings opened at midnight on June 14, and the early numbers are encouraging. As of June 15 morning, the film has already sold approximately 6,950 tickets on BookMyShow. The momentum seems to be building steadily as fans look forward to the chemistry between the lead stars and the youthful vibe the film promises to deliver. When we dive into the data from national cinema chains, the early performance is quite visible. As of June 15 afternoon , the major chains have cumulatively sold about 7,680 tickets, resulting in a gross collection of 33.55 lakh. Breaking this down, PVR leads the way with 4,460 tickets, followed by INOX with 2,700 and Cinepolis with 520 tickets. While these numbers represent the very start of the booking cycle, they show that the urban audience is already showing an active interest. With the release date approaching, these figures are expected to see a significant spike, especially as the promotional campaign enters its final phase. The combination of a well-loved franchise name and a fresh, star-studded cast has created a strong foundation for the film. While the A certificate might limit its audience slightly compared to a U/A release, the youthful appeal and the curiosity surrounding the mature content could very well work in its favor. As it stands, Cocktail 2 is positioning itself as a major contender for the mid-year box office crown.

Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past 1st Weekend Collection: Rs. 9.35 Cr Net; Misses Top 10 Spot By 7.88%

Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past has completed its opening weekend at the box office, bringing in steady numbers that reflect a focused interest in the horror-mystery genre. As a spiritual successor to the 2011 hit Haunted 3D, this new chapter entered the theaters with a reported budget of 15 crore. After three days of play, the film has managed to secure a net collection of 9.35 crore in India. Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past - 1st Weekend CollectionDAYINDIA NET COLLECTIONSHOW COUNTOCCUPANCYDay 1 (Friday)₹ 2.50 Cr2,90715.4%Day 2 (Saturday)₹ 3.25 Cr3,77015.0%Day 3 (Sunday)₹ 3.60 Cr4,13017.0%Total Weekend₹ 9.35 Cr10,807- (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The film showed a positive upward trend over the weekend. Following a Friday opening of 2.50 crore, the collections jumped by 30 percent on Saturday to reach 3.25 crore. Sunday saw a further growth of 10.8 percent, bringing in 3.60 crore. This cumulative performance has pushed the total India gross to ₹11.03 crore, keeping the worldwide gross at the same ₹11.03 crore mark. Given the production scale, reaching nearly 10 crore net in three days is a respectable start, though it still has some ground to cover to reach the break-even point. In terms of occupancy, the 3D format has clearly been the preferred choice for the audience. In the National Capital Region (NCR), the 3D version maintained a consistent overall occupancy of 32.8 percent across both Day 1 and Day 3. The evening shows on Sunday were particularly busy in this region with 44 percent occupancy. In Mumbai, the 3D shows saw an even better response on Sunday with a 35 percent occupancy rate. On the other hand, the 2D version struggled to match these heights. For instance, in Ahmedabad, the 2D version saw 8.3 percent occupancy on Friday, which grew slightly to 10.8 percent by Sunday. These numbers suggest that the 3D gimmick continues to be the primary draw for the franchise. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) With its opening weekend total of 9.35 crore, Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past currently sits at the 11th spot for the highest opening weekends of 2026. The film narrowly missed entering the elite Top 10 list by just 80 lakhs. Here is the list of the top 10 opening weekend performers of the year so far: Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge – ₹290.94 Cr Border 2 – ₹121.00 Cr Bhooth Bangla – ₹54.25 Cr O Romeo – ₹30.15 Cr Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai – ₹24.00 Cr Mardaani 3 – ₹17.50 Cr Pati Patni Aur Woh Do – ₹17.50 Cr Ikkis – ₹13.15 Cr Chand Mera Dil – ₹11.00 Cr The Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond – ₹10.15 Cr National chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis contributed significantly to the Sunday totals. On Day 3 alone, these chains sold approximately 11,300 tickets, generating a gross of 36 lakh. PVR led the pack with 16 lakh in gross from 393 shows, followed by INOX at 11 lakh and Cinepolis at 9 lakh. Across the entire weekend, over 23,660 tickets were sold through these major national chains. Ticket sales on BookMyShow also stayed healthy, with 51,450 tickets booked in the last 24 hours of the weekend, bringing the total platform sales to 174,150 tickets. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Comparing this performance to the original 2011 Haunted 3D provides an interesting perspective. The first film was a certified hit, ending its run with an India net of 25.37 crore and a worldwide gross of 34.25 crore. While Echoes of the Past has a ways to go before matching those lifetime figures, its current weekend net of 9.35 crore puts it at about 37 percent of the original film's total domestic earnings. For the sequel to replicate the hit status of its predecessor, it will need to maintain a strong grip over the weekdays and avoid a significant Monday drop. The total show count for the weekend reached 10,807 shows, indicating a wide release for a film of this size. The film stars Mimoh Chakraborty alongside Chetna Pande and is billed as a spiritual successor that leans heavily into the gothic horror elements established by Vikram Bhatt. While the niche genre usually sees front-loaded performance, the growth seen on Saturday and Sunday offers a glimmer of hope for a steady run in the coming days.

Horror's Box Office Rise: Haunted 3D, Backrooms Score Good Opening As Obsession Continues Strong Run On Friday

Mumbai, June 13 - There were several new releases this Friday in India, and among them, the horror genre continues to emerge as one of the most reliable performers at the Indian box office. While several star-driven films hit cinemas on Friday, it was Vikram Bhatt's Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past that attracted the strongest audience response among the new releases, further highlighting the growing popularity of horror films in the country.

New Hollywood horror thriller Backrooms has also generated interest among urban Indian audiences, particularly in premium multiplexes.

Box Office: Haunted 3D Surprises As Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, Main Vaapas Aaunga, And Governor Open On Expected Lines

Mumbai, June 13 - The crowded June 12 box office clash has produced an unexpected winner, with Vikram Bhatt's horror thriller Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past emerging as the strongest opener among the major Hindi releases. Despite facing competition from star-driven films such as Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, Main Vaapas Aaunga, and Governor: The Silent Saviour, the horror film managed to attract audiences on its opening day and take the lead at the ticket counters. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) According to estimates, Haunted 3D collected around 2.5 crore net on its first day in India, outperforming all the notable new releases.

Its opening is being viewed as a pleasant surprise, especially considering the intense competition it faced from multiple releases. Meanwhile, Main Vaapas Aaunga, directed by Imtiaz Ali, opened on expected lines with collections in the 1.15 crore range. The film managed to edge past Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata and secure the second position among the Hindi releases of the day.

The film, based on the heroic efforts of nurses during the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, collected around 1 crore net on its first day amid stiff competition at the box office. Manoj Bajpayee's Governor also performed on the expected lines, bringing in around 90 lakh net. The film now relies heavily on positive audience feedback and weekend growth to improve its theatrical trajectory. The battle, however, is far from over. With multiple films catering to different audience segments, the weekend trend will determine whether Haunted 3D can maintain its surprise lead or if Main Vaapas Aaunga and Bharat Bhagya Vidhata can gain momentum through word-of-mouth. For now, the horror genre has once again demonstrated its ability to punch above its weight at the Indian box office.

Peddi Box Office Collection Day 9 Live Update: Ram Charan Film Hits 230 Cr India Gross; Needs 20 Cr for 300 Cr Global Milestone

Global Star Ram Charan's latest sports drama, Peddi, has officially entered its second week, continuing its record-breaking run at the box office. Directed by Buchi Babu Sana and starring Janhvi Kapoor, the film has cemented its status as Ram Charan's highest-grossing solo lead film. As it enters Day 9, the movie is holding steady despite the expected weekday shifts, showing remarkable resilience across both the Telugu heartland and international markets. Live Now Reflecting on the Day 8 performance, Peddi managed a solid domestic gross of ₹7.42 Cr, bringing its total India Gross to ₹229.95 Cr. While the net collection saw a minor 16.6% drop from Wednesday, the film maintained a decent footprint with 7,412 shows across the country. The Telugu version remains the primary driver, contributing a major chunk of the collections, followed by a steady performance in the Hindi belts and Karnataka. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Globally, the film is on the verge of a massive milestone. With an overseas gross of ₹49.40 Cr as of Day 8, the Worldwide Gross now stands at a staggering ₹279.35 Cr. As the film begins its second Friday (Day 9), all eyes are on whether it can breach the 300 Cr worldwide mark before the conclusion of the upcoming weekend. LIVE BLOG: PEDDI DAY 9 UPDATES 16:15 (IST) 12 JUN 2026 Peddi Day 9 Live Update: Afternoon booking trends shows decent stability; India Gross climbs to ₹231.79 Cr As we head into the evening of the second Friday, Peddi is showing an impressively stable trajectory. The film is currently running across 1,907 shows and has already collected a live net of ₹1.56 Cr for the day. This pushes the total India Gross to ₹231.79 Cr and the India Net to ₹195.11 Cr. The BookMyShow (BMS) data further reinforces this stability. During the 3 PM to 4 PM window today, the film sold 4,080 tickets, slightly edging out yesterday's 4,060 tickets during the same slot. Looking at the cumulative daily trend from 7 AM to 4 PM, Peddi has recorded 35,650 ticket sales today compared to 35,590 sales yesterday. 13:00 (IST) 12 JUN 2026 Peddi Milestone: Film becomes the 5th Tollywood outing to cross 3 Million ticket sales on BookMyShow in Week 1 While the discussion continues regarding its Pan-India performance, the ground-level footfalls for Peddi remain historic. The film has officially become only the 5th Tollywood film in history to cross the massive 3 Million tickets sold mark on BookMyShow during its first week. Finishing the week with 3.18 Million tickets, it joins an elite list previously occupied only by event-scale blockbusters like Pushpa 2, Kalki 2898AD, Salaar, and Devara. 12:30 (IST) 12 JUN 2026 Peddi Day 9 Live Update: India Gross crosses ₹230 Cr; Hindi version nears ₹25 Cr milestone but trails RRR significantly As of Friday afternoon, Peddi is currently playing across 973 shows and has already added a live net of ₹0.42 Cr today. This brings the cumulative India Gross to ₹230.45 Cr and the total India Net to ₹193.97 Cr. The Hindi version currently stands at a gross of ₹20.55 Cr, nearing the ₹25 Cr milestone. However, this is quite underwhelming considering Ram Charan's massive reach following RRR, which had raked in a staggering ₹155.56 Cr Hindi gross in its first week alone. Similarly, in Karnataka, Peddi managed ₹24.38 Cr gross compared to RRR’s ₹52.60 Cr. While the film is a huge success in the Telugu states, the Global Star momentum hasn't translated into the same Hindi-belt frenzy as his previous outing. 10:45 (IST) 12 JUN 2026 Peddi Day 9 Live Update: Record-breaking run in Kakinada; Film scores highest non-Rajamouli 1st week share The regional dominance of Peddi is becoming more evident as the first-week numbers from mass centers start rolling in. In Kakinada Town, the film has set an All-Time record by collecting a massive ₹1.85 Cr share in its first extended week. This is officially the highest-ever first-week share recorded for any film in the town, excluding those directed by SS Rajamouli. This historic performance in Andhra Pradesh mass circuits is helping the film bridge the gap toward its ambitious breakeven targets. 10:00 (IST) 12 JUN 2026 Peddi Day 9 Live Update: Second Friday begins; India Gross inches closer to ₹230 Cr mark As of Friday morning (Day 9), Peddi has commenced its second week with 281 shows currently tracked for the early morning slots. The film has already added a live net of ₹0.02 Cr, pushing the Total India Gross to ₹229.97 Cr. The morning occupancy in the Telugu states remains healthy, suggesting that the film is poised for a significant jump in evening shows as the weekend crowd kicks in. 08:30 (IST) 12 JUN 2026 Peddi Day 8 Recap: Telugu version dominates with ₹5.30 Cr gross; Worldwide total hits ₹279 Cr Final reports for Day 8 (Thursday) confirm that Peddi maintained its dominance in the South. The APTG (Andhra Pradesh & Telangana) gross stood at ₹5.30 Cr, while Karnataka contributed ₹0.55 Cr. The Hindi version, playing across 3,557 shows, added a net of ₹1.10 Cr. With a steady overseas collection of ₹0.60 Cr yesterday, the Worldwide Gross has reached ₹279.35 Cr. The film's ability to hold over 7,400 shows into the eighth day highlights the strong demand for this Ram Charan starrer. @keyframes pulse { 0% { opacity: 1; } 50% { opacity: 0.2; } 100% { opacity: 1; } } .blinking-dot { height: 7px; width: 7px; background-color: white; border-radius: 50%; display: inline-block; animation: pulse 1.2s infinite ease-in-out; } { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "LiveBlogPosting", "headline": "Peddi Box Office Collection Day 9 Live Update", "description": "Live updates for Ram Charan's Peddi Day 9 box office collections and gross reports.", "liveBlogUpdate": [ { "@type": "BlogPosting", "headline": "Peddi crosses 229 Cr India Gross", "datePublished": "2026-06-12T10:00:00+05:30", "articleBody": "Peddi has officially reached a cumulative India gross of 229.97 Cr as of Day 9 morning updates." } ] }

Marathi Box Office: Raja Shivaji likely to fall short of the 100 Cr Net milestone while Deool Band 2 hits the superb 75 Cr Gross mark

Marathi cinema is currently witnessing a phenomenal phase at the box office, with two distinct films, Raja Shivaji and Deool Band 2, continuing to draw audiences well into their extended runs. While one is a grand historical epic nearing a massive century milestone, the other is a regional powerhouse showing incredible stability in its third week. For fans of Marathi cinema, the combined success of these two projects signifies a major shift in how regional content is being consumed and supported at the ticket windows. Raja Shivaji, the historical epic has officially completed its sixth week with an India net collection standing at 96.28 crore. While the film is less than 4 crore away from the prestigious 100 crore net milestone—a feat never before achieved by a Marathi-origin film—the current box office pace suggests that reaching this mark is now effectively out of reach. With the sixth-week total settling at a modest 0.29 crore and daily earnings sliding into the low lakhs, the film simply lacks the remaining momentum needed to bridge that final gap. National chains recorded over 2,200 ticket sales for the week, but with the daily collections trending downward, the 100 crore net milestone remains out of reach as the film concludes its run . (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) On the other hand, Deool Band 2 is proving to be a marathon runner in its own right. Having just finished its third week, the film has reached the 75 crore gross milestone, which is a superb achievement for a Marathi production. On its 22nd day, the movie collected 0.85 crore net, representing a very minor 5.6 percent drop from the previous day. This kind of hold on a third Thursday indicates strong word-of-mouth and a loyal audience base in major hubs like Pune and Mumbai. In fact, the national chain ticket sales for Deool Band 2 were exceptionally high this week, with over 44,600 tickets sold, highlighting its dominance in urban centers. Looking at the engagement on BookMyShow, Raja Shivaji has recorded over 2.65 million ticket sales over the course of its six-week theatrical run. In contrast, the more recent Deool Band 2 is currently in its high-earning phase, reaching a worldwide gross of 74.93 crore in 22 days. While Raja Shivaji has been screened across more than 92,000 shows globally to date, Deool Band 2 has operated across 34,620 shows during its three-week stint. Both films are catering to different segments of the market, and their current weekly net performance is detailed in the table below. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Marathi Box Office: Raja Shivaji vs Deool Band 2 MOVIE NAME WEEKLY NET COLLECTION TOTAL INDIA NET (TILL DATE) Raja Shivaji (Week 6) ₹ 0.29 Cr ₹ 96.28 Cr Deool Band 2 (Week 3) ₹ 11.15 Cr ₹ 63.75 Cr The regional performance for Deool Band 2 highlights its strong hold in key Marathi markets. In Pune, the film maintained night-show occupancies as high as 30 percent on its 22nd day, while Mumbai saw a peak of 21 percent. For Raja Shivaji, the Hindi version has provided a significant boost, contributing nearly 30 crore to the total gross and supporting its Pan-India presence. However, with the current daily trend, Raja Shivaji is expected to conclude its run just short of the 100 crore net milestone.

Looking at the performance in its twelfth week, the film managed to add another 0.14 crore net to its massive India total.

Produced on a budget of about ₹70 Crore, the film has sold roughly 21,000 tickets so far, bringing its advance gross to approximately ₹61 Lakhs. The multiplex performance looks solid, with PVR bringing in around ₹22.6 Lakhs and INOX adding about ₹12.1 Lakhs. Trade expectations suggest the film needs a strong opening day in the range of ₹5 to ₹7 Crore to maintain a healthy theatrical value. Next up is Governor: The Silent Saviour, a biographical political drama directed by Chinmay D. Mandlekar. The plot revisits the 1990 Indian economic crisis, focusing on the events that saved the nation from bankruptcy. The makers utilized a distinct marketing strategy by offering the first 25,000 tickets at a retro rate of ₹50, which has certainly helped drive interest. So far, the film has sold about 22,000 tickets, resulting in an advance gross of roughly ₹56.3 Lakhs. In the national chains, PVR is leading with roughly ₹21 Lakhs, followed by INOX at approximately ₹9.9 Lakhs and Cinepolis at around ₹4.5 Lakhs. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Rounding off the clash is Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, a rescue thriller directed by Manoj Tapadia. The film features Kangana Ranaut as a brave nurse and uncovers untold chapters of the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks. Ahead of its release, the film has managed to sell approximately 22,000 tickets, bringing its advance gross to about ₹54.3 Lakhs. The breakdown for major chains shows PVR at around ₹16.2 Lakhs, INOX at roughly ₹8.7 Lakhs, and Cinepolis adding about ₹4.1 Lakhs. As a film honoring unsung heroes, it adds a patriotic flavor to this weekend's competitive lineup. With four mid-to-high budget films releasing on the same day, the audience's attention is clearly divided. While the horror genre is currently leading in terms of ticket volume, the directorial brands and star power across the other releases are expected to drive significant walk-in footfalls on Friday. It will be interesting to see which of these stories manages to capture the audience's heart and survive this major box office battle.

Backed by Yash Raj Films and directed by Shiv Rawail, Alpha is scheduled to arrive in cinemas on July 3, 2026.

Bhooth Bangla Day 55 Box Office: Worldwide gross hits Over Rs 269 Cr as the film heads off to streaming

Bhooth Bangla has managed to stretch its theatrical run to an impressive 55 days, aided significantly by a lack of heavy competition in recent weeks. When the film arrived on April 17, the massive Dhurandhar 2 had already been in theaters for nearly a month since its March 19 release, giving the horror-comedy a clear window to attract audiences. On its eighth Wednesday, the film brought in a net collection of 0.08 Cr, holding steady with a minor 20% drop from Tuesday earnings of 0.10 Cr. Even with a limited count of 219 shows, the film is still finding takers as it moves toward its final stretch. If we look at the regional performance for the day, the National Capital Region (NCR) continues to be a strong pillar for the film even in its eighth week. With 35 shows, it saw an overall occupancy of 21%, with evening shows performing the best at 28%. In contrast, Ahmedabad had a quieter day with about 6.7% occupancy across 28 shows. These pockets of steady audience interest have helped the film maintain its presence on the big screen for nearly two months. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) In the major national multiplex chains, which include PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis, the film collected a combined gross of approximately ₹1.7 Lakhs on Wednesday. To break it down, PVR contributed ₹77,000, while INOX added around ₹68,000, and Cinepolis brought in about ₹27,000. While these amounts might seem small in isolation, they reflect the loyal urban audience that is still stepping out to catch this horror-comedy on the big screen. The overall financial picture of the film is quite impressive. The total India net collection has now reached ₹181.93 Cr, with the domestic gross standing at ₹215.47 Cr. When we add the overseas gross of ₹53.75 Cr, the worldwide gross collection hits a noteworthy ₹269.22 Cr. This consistent performance across 55 days shows that the movie has successfully connected with both domestic and international audiences over a long period. Perhaps the most significant highlight of this run is the digital footprint left on BookMyShow. The platform has officially concluded its tracking for the film, and the numbers are stellar. Bhooth Bangla has sold a total of 3.38 million tickets on the platform. This feat has pushed the movie into the elite Top 15 list of all-time highest ticket sales on BookMyShow. It has managed to edge past several other major blockbusters to secure its place in history. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Here is the official ranking of the top movies based on their BookMyShow ticket sales: Dhurandhar 2 - 18.37M Dhurandhar - 14.19M Chhaava - 12.59M Jawan - 12.40M Stree 2 - 11.16M Animal - 9.91M Gadar 2 - 9.18M Saiyaara - 7.09M Border 2 - 5.41M Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 - 4.67M Dunki - 4.08M Tiger 3 - 4.00M Singham Again / War 2 - 3.77M Fighter - 3.68M Bhooth Bangla - 3.38M As Bhooth Bangla prepares for its OTT release on June 12, the film concludes a profitable theatrical run. Against a reported budget of 120 Cr, the domestic net collection of 181.93 Cr and a worldwide gross approaching 270 Cr represent solid financial returns. Managing to stay in theaters for 55 days is a big win. With the digital premiere just around the corner, the movie effectively transitions from a box office success to a streaming favorite.

Double Dhamaka: Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge and Dhurandhar Trending In Top 5 On JioHotstar

Mumbai, June 11 - The Dhurandhar duology continues to dominate audiences even after its record-breaking theatrical run. Nearly a week after its highly anticipated OTT debut, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has emerged as the most-watched title on JioHotstar in India this week.

Meanwhile, the first Dhurandhar is trending at number 4 on JioHotstar, creating a rare double among the most-watched titles.

Cocktail 2, Alpha, Welcome To The Jungle And More: Bollywood's Crucial One Month Summer Window Begins

Mumbai, June 11 - The Hindi film industry is entering what could be its most important theatrical phase of 2026. In less than 30 days, Bollywood will see the release of five major films with significant commercial expectations. Beginning with Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata on June 12 and concluding with Dhamaal 4 on July 10, the industry will be hoping for a sustained run of box-office successes to strengthen the theatrical business during the summer season. The crucial release window kicks off with Kangana Ranaut's patriotic drama Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata on June 12, which is based on the true events of the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, focusing on the staff at Cama Hospital who risked their lives to save over 400 patients. It is Kangana's first release since Emergency in January 2025. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) BBV is followed by one of the year's most anticipated romantic dramas, Cocktail 2, on June 19. The sequel, led by Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna, has generated considerable buzz among moviegoers and currently sits among the most-awaited Hindi films of the year. A week later, superstar Akshay Kumar-led comedy entertainer Welcome To The Jungle arrives on June 26, carrying the responsibility of reviving one of Bollywood's most popular comedy franchises. The momentum continues with Yash Raj Films' ambitious spy action thriller Alpha on July 3. Headlined by Alia Bhatt, Sharvari Wagh, and Bobby Deol, the film marks the first female-led instalment in the YRF Spy Universe and is expected to be one of the biggest Hindi releases of 2026.

The industry has often relied on a cluster of successful releases to create positive momentum at the box office.

Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata to Backrooms: CBFC Surprises With Three Zero-Cut Certifications Bollywood

Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata to Backrooms: CBFC Surprises With Three Zero-Cut Certifications

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has been under a lot of pressure lately, with social media and the film industry criticizing its recent decisions. If you have been following the news, the heavy cuts imposed on films like Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai and Bandar caused quite a stir. The situation reached a boiling point when certain crucial scenes in the blockbuster Obsession were ordered to be edited, leading to an intense uproar that lasted for days. However, in a development first reported as an exclusive by Bollywood Hungama, the board seems to have taken a surprisingly lenient turn this week by clearing three significant releases with zero cuts. The first major film to benefit from this shift is Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, starring Kangana Ranaut. The movie, which is a thriller based on the tragic 26/11 terror attacks, was granted a U/A 16+ rating by the Examining Committee. Usually, films dealing with such sensitive and violent subject matter face several audio or visual objections, but the CBFC found no reason to ask for any deletions here. According to the censor certificate issued on May 29, the film has a total runtime of approximately 127 minutes, or about 2 hours and 7 minutes. Following this, Vikram Bhatt is making a return to the 3D horror genre with Haunted – Echoes Of The Past. Starring Mimoh Chakraborty, the film has been awarded an ‘A’ rating. Historically, horror films with an adult rating are often subjected to scissor cuts due to intense horrifying sequences or intimate scenes. Surprisingly, this film has passed without a single visual or audio cut. The certificate, issued on June 9, confirms the film's length at nearly 139 minutes, which translates to a runtime of 2 hours and 19 minutes. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The third film to receive a clean chit is the Hollywood sci-fi psychological horror flick, Backrooms. Much like the recent sleeper hit Obsession, there is significant curiosity surrounding this title. The CBFC granted it an ‘A’ rating on June 8 without proposing any cuts. The film is relatively concise, with a runtime of 1 hour and 51 minutes. While the zero-cut status is a win for purists, trade analysts suggest a bit of caution. There is a possibility that the studio might have voluntarily blurred or removed certain disturbing shots before the submission to avoid a confrontation with the board, a practice that is becoming increasingly common with international horror releases. This move by the CBFC is being seen as a tactical shift to ease the ongoing tension with filmmakers and audiences alike. By allowing these high-stakes thrillers and horror movies to retain their original vision, the board might be trying to signal a more balanced approach toward adult-oriented content. For now, moviegoers can look forward to watching these titles exactly as the directors intended, provided the studios haven't played it too safe themselves.

Virat Kohli Beats Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra To Become Most Valuable Celebrity of India

Mumbai, June 10 - Indian cricket icon Virat Kohli has added another remarkable achievement to his illustrious career. The former India captain has emerged as the most valuable celebrity brand in the country, surpassing some of the biggest names in Indian entertainment, including Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra Jonas. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) According to the Fortune India–Interbrand Most Valuable Celebrities ranking, Kohli's brand value stands at an impressive 3,542 crore, placing him at the top of the list. The ranking measures a celebrity's commercial influence based on factors such as endorsement strength, consumer appeal, cultural impact, digital presence, and overall marketability. Kohli's rise to the No. 1 position comes as no surprise given his unparalleled popularity both on and off the cricket field. The batting superstar continues to be one of the most sought-after faces for brands across sectors ranging from fashion and lifestyle to technology and finance. His massive social media following and consistent public engagement have further strengthened his standing as one of the world's most marketable athletes. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan secured the second spot in the rankings, reflecting his enduring appeal and successful comeback in recent years. Global entertainment star Priyanka Chopra Jonas completed the top three, underlining her strong international presence and influence across multiple industries. The latest ranking highlights the growing power of sports personalities in the branding landscape. While actors have traditionally dominated celebrity endorsements in India, Kohli's ability to connect with audiences across demographics has enabled him to emerge as the country's most valuable celebrity brand.
