Box Office: Rakshan Bandhan First Saturday Early Estimates

Mumbai, August 13 - Raksha Bandhan sees a decent jump on the first Saturday as compared to its previous day. There is some growth but that is very marginal and also from a very low second day which questions the growth. The early estimated collections are set to be around 7 crores net. There was a chance for a far bigger growth but the film did not find any takers in premium multiplexes with minimum collections. The film is doing fine in a few centers of Gujarat and Saurashtra but that's all about it. Raksha Bandhan much like its contemporary Laal Singh Chaddha has recorded very low collections in the first three days but Laal Singh Chaddha has shown a better jump than Raksha Bandhan today. The first Saturday collections will push the total collections of Raksha Bandhan to just a little over the 23cr net box office mark. The next two days are huge national holidays so the film should record big collections on these two days for a respectable lifetime collection. About This Movie This film is directed by Anand L Rai and produced by Cape Of Good Films and Colour Yellow Productions. Raksha Bandhan stars Akshay Kumar, Bhumi Pednekar, Sadia Khateeb, Sahejmeen Kaur, Deepika Khanna, and Smrithi Srikanth in key roles. Stay tuned...

Box Office: Laal Singh Chaddha First Saturday Early Estimates

Mumbai, August 13 - Laal Singh Chaddha gets a decent jump on the first Saturday for an estimated 9 crores net, though the damage has already been done with the first two days recording very dull collections. The good thing is that the film did not drop further which gives the film a chance to score a respectable collection in the final run. The jump is although is not huge or anywhere even close to it but as Saturdays record best collections for a film that caters to premium multiplex audiences, The collections of Laal Singh Chaddha got some boost in the evening and night shows. The film is doing average business in major metros but completely washout in Tier2 and Tier3 cities which is rare for an Aamir Khan starrer. The early estimate collections are set to be around 9cr net box office collections which will push the total collections of the film to a little under 28cr net mark. These are very low collections, especially because the film stars a star like Aamir Khan who is one of the biggest box office draws of all time. East Punjab and Delhi-NCR continue to perform for Laal Singh Chaddha due to local flavor. Except for these two circuits rest, all are recording awful collections, to say the least. The next two days are huge mass national holidays and the film should record big collections. About This Movie This film is directed by Advait Chandan and produced by Viacom 18 Motion Pictures and Aamir Khan Productions in association with Paramount Pictures. Laal Singh Chaddha stars Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Mona Singh, and Naga Chaitanya in key roles. Stay tuned...

Box Office: Laal Singh Chaddha First Friday Early Estimates

Mumbai, August 12 - Laal Singh Chaddha which had a disappointing opening day with just 12 crores net collections in all the versions has seen a big drop on the second day of its release. The drop is big in the range of 40% but when you compare it to the low opening day then the drop looks even bigger. The early estimated collections on the second day are set to be around 7.5 crores net for Laal Singh Chaddha. East Punjab which raked decent first-day collections has also dropped largely on the second day. Rest all other circuits are recording awful collections. The second-day collections will push the first two days' collections of the film to a little less than the 20cr net mark which should have been the opening day number of Laal Singh Chaddha. Tomorrow is Saturday and then a huge two national holidays are waiting so Laal Singh Chaddha should record good collections otherwise the film might turn out to be one of the biggest loss-making films of all time which is a regular practice for the industry for the last 6 months. About This Movie This film is directed by Advait Chandan and produced by Viacom 18 Motion Pictures and Aamir Khan Productions in association with Paramount Pictures.

Box Office: Raksha Bandhan First Friday Early Estimates

Mumbai, August 12 - After recording a low opening day of just 8.20 crores net box office collections, Raksha Bandhan sees a drop on the second day. The drop is lesser than Laal Singh Chaddha but it also has to notice that Laal Singh Chaddha had a higher first day so the drop was likely to be bigger. The early estimated collections are set to be around 5.50-6 crores net which will push the total collections of Raksha Bandhan to approx 14cr which should have been the opening day number of the film. No circuit is recording good numbers for Raksha Bandhan on a whole but Gujarat and Saurashtra can be called decent but not as a standalone circuit. These two centers recording decent collections just because Akshay Kumar has better pull in these centers. The drop on Friday was expected considering a Thursday release. However, the drop is a little bigger than the makers would have liked. The next three days will be crucial for the movie in the contest of its lifetime run. About This Movie This film is directed by Anand L Rai and produced by Cape Of Good Films and Colour Yellow Productions. Raksha Bandhan stars Akshay Kumar, Bhumi Pednekar, Sadia Khateeb, Sahejmeen Kaur, Deepika Khanna, and Smrithi Srikanth in key roles. Stay tuned...

Struggle For Bollywood At The Box Office Continues As Laal Singh Chaddha And Raksha Bandhan Fail To Meet Expectations

Mumbai, August 12 - Two of the most anticipated Movies of the year Laal Singh Chaddha by Aamir Khan and Raksha Bandhan by Akshay Kumar released yesterday with so many expectations. But both the movies struggled on their first day despite having the advantage of a national holiday on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan. ## The main reason why these movies had to encounter the struggle is that Both have less commercial appeal and are made in a more urban-friendly manner. Audiences are showing less interest in both movies despite there being the presence of Big stars like Aamir Khan and Akshay Kumar.## The combined collection of both movies on day 1 is 20.20 crore net. Overall both movies projected below-average results which further worries the filmmakers of Bollywood and also indicates that they should retrospect to see what is going wrong these times.## They need to realize that the preference of the audiences has undergone a drastic change over the years. The success of movies like KGF chapter 2 and Pushpa, in which the main hero is of the anti-hero type indicates that the audience prefers heroes with a touch of negative shade. Recently the warm reception south superstar Suriya has been receiving for his cameo role in Vikram which is filled with a negative shade is a clear example of this. ## Bollywood needs to reduce the number of experimental type films and focus on mass movies which engage the audiences throughout their duration, in long term emerge as big hits.## Stay tuned...

Box Office: Laal Singh Chaddha and Raksha Bandhan Collect Combined 20+ Crores On First Day

Mumbai, August 12 - The much-awaited Bollywood biggies, Aamir Khan's Laal Singh Chaddha and Akshay Kumar-fronted Raksha Bandhan performed underwhelmingly at the box office on an opening day. Being a holiday release, the industry was expecting both films to do well which didn't happen. ## Laal Singh Chaddha, which is the official remake of the classic Hollywood blockbuster Forrest Gump, was a bigger film than Raksha Bandhan. However, the opening day collection of 12 crores net of the film is too low by the standard Aamir has set over the years.## It was almost impossible to match the pre-covid level box office performance for Laal Singh Chaddha, but the movie still needed to perform much better than it actually earned, considering the big budget and scale of the film. A negative campaign was also run against the movie and that might have done damage to the movie. The word of mouth, however, is mixed. ## On the other hand, the Akshay Kumar-starrer family comedy-drama film, Raksha Bandhan collected 8.20 crores net on Thursday. Though the movie was predicted to earn around in the same range, a 10 crores start would have been nice, but unfortunately, the movie legged behind LSC in mutliplexes. The word of mouth and reivews are largly positive and this should help the movie to grow over the weekend, especially from Saturday. ## Overall, both Laal Singh Chaddha and Raksha Bandhan combined scored 20.20 crores net collection on the first day, which is lower than the opening of Akshay Kumar's Sooryavanshi. The Rohit Shetty-directed film is the biggest Bollywood opener post pandemic. It scored 26.29 crores net upon its release on Diwali 2021. ## Stay tuned...

Raksha Bandhan Opening Day Early Estimates

Mumbai, 11 Aug 2022: The other big release of the day Rakshabandhan starring Akshay Kumar has also been released today but much like its contemporary Laal Singh Chaddha even Rakshabandhan has failed on the opening front. The early estimated collections are set to be around 9cr net box office collections which are fine for the type of content the film is offering but considering the film is an Akshay Kumar starrer who has a solid initial star power then the opening is disappointing. Raksha Bandhan Day 1 Occupancy Details The opening day figures of Raksha Bandhan will be going to be lesser than Akshay Kumar's last two films Samrat Prithiviraj and Bachchan Pandey. Both of them scored double-digit marks comfortably which was the target for Raksha Bandhan. The plus point is that the film is driven by middle-class audiences so the film can see some growth in the premium multiplexes on Saturdays and Sundays. The film is in a much safer position than its rival film Laal Singh Chaddha due to way lower cost and this is what matters the most. Even if Raksha Bandhan sees normal growth over the next couple of days then it will be a good sign for the Industry. The film will be helped by a huge national holiday on Monday in the form of Independence day. The audience word of mouth seems rather mixed but better than Laal Singh Chaddha which should help the film to sustain at the box office. About This Movie This film is directed by Anand L Rai and produced by Cape Of Good Films and Colour Yellow Productions. Raksha Bandhan stars Akshay Kumar, Bhumi Pednekar, Sadia Khateeb, Sahejmeen Kaur, Deepika Khanna, and Smrithi Srikanth in key roles. Stay tuned.

Laal Singh Chaddha Opening Day Early Estimates; Double-Digit Start

Mumbai, Aug 11, 2022: The first event film of this year from the Hindi film industry Laal Singh Chaddha has been released at the box office starring Aamir Khan as a central character. The film was scheduled to release earlier but has been postponed many times until it was released today. Lal Singh Chadha Day 1 Occupancy Details Laal Singh Chaddha is an official remake of the Hollywood classic Forrest Gump. The trailer of Laal Singh Chaddha could not build any kind of urgency and even the songs could not raise the buzz and anticipation around the film as a result the film failed on the opening front. The film took just a 10-12% start in the morning which is the worst Aamir Khan opener of this century ignoring a few of his cameo and art films. Even the centers where Aamir Khan has a huge pull did not witness any audience. The early estimate collections are set to be around 12cr net box office collections only. There was a minimum 15cr expectation from the film due to the Rakshabandhan holiday but that looks like a distant dream now. The film has been made on a huge scale and it is the second highest budgeted film of Aamir Khan after Thugs of Hindostan from that point of view, the opening of Laal Singh Chaddha is nothing but a disaster. The reports of the film are not encouraging as well with mass audiences disliking it due to its lengthy and boring screenplay. The film should see huge growth in the subsequent days to register a decent extended weekend collection. The industry continues to feel the heat as big films continue to fail on the opening front which was like bread and butter in pre-pandemic days. About This Movie This film is directed by Advait Chandan and produced by Viacom 18 Motion Pictures and Aamir Khan Productions in association with Paramount Pictures. Laal Singh Chaddha stars Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Mona Singh, and Naga Chaitanya in key roles. Stay tuned.

Laal Singh Chaddha Review: Here Is What Public Has To Say

Mumbai, August 11 - Aamir Khan returns to the big screen after almost 4 years with comedy drama Laal Singh Chaddha, which has been released in theaters today. The Advait Chandan-directed film is the official remake of Tom Hanks's classic Hollywood blockbuster, Forrest Gump (1994). ## Laal Singh Chaddha follows the events in India's history unfold through the perspective of Laal Singh Chaddha (Aamir Khan), a dim-witted man who has a great understanding of emotions. Ahmad Ibn Umar plays Young Laal in the movie that also stars Kareena Kapoor, Naga Chaitanya (in his Hindi film debut), and Mona Singh in key roles. ## The movie had its premiere yesterday night for the film fraternity and media people. Have a look at what they have to say about the film. ## #OneWordReview...#LaalSinghChaddha: DISAPPOINTS.Rating: ⭐️⭐️#AamirKhan’s comeback vehicle #LSC runs out of fuel midway… Lacks a captivating screenplay to enthrall you [second half goes downhill]… Has some terrific moments, but lacks fire in totality. #LaalSinghChaddhaReview pic.twitter.com/rTuYfJT629— taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) August 11, 2022 ## #AamirKhan's passion is visible in every frame of #LaalSinghChaddha.

Opening Day Box Office Prediction For Aamir Khan's 'Laal Singh Chaddha' and Akshay Kumar-Fronted 'Raksha Bandhan'

Mumbai, August 10 - There is a lot depending on the upcoming two Bollywood biggies - Laal Singh Chaddha and Raksha Bandhan, as far as the box office is concerned. It would have been nice if they have got a solo release, but that is not happening as both the movies are releasing on August 11. ## Laal Singh Chaddha, which stars superstar Aamir Khan in the title role, is the biggest movie this month and the industry is expecting it to perform according to the reputation it is carrying. However, the advance booking trend is saying something else which might have forced the industry to lower their expectations, at least for the opening day. ## It would have been a huge surprise to see an Aamir Khan's film not able to pick in advance sales. However, things have changed post-pandemic as the trend of box office openings post-pandemic has largely been on the lower side. Irrespective of the star power, Bollywood films haven't been able to take the big opening except for Akshay Kumar's, Sooryavanshi, which opened to over 26 crores on Diwali 2021. ## Laal Singh Chaddha, which has so far grossed approx. 3.50 crores in advance sales, is looking to open around 12-13 crores. The movie will depend on word of mouth, and we are expecting it to be positive which might push the film to around 15 crores net start. The 15 crores opening is not at all good by the standard Aamir has set, but the industry should take it in a positive way as it is having a clash with another big film, that too under current circumstances. ## On the other hand, Akshay Kumar-fronted, Raksha Bandhan is not really dependent upon the advance booking trend and will largely rely on spot bookings. The makers have promised the revive the family drama genre with this Anand L Rai-directorial and the inside reports are also super positive. ## Raksha Bandhan, which is having a perfect Holiday release, matching the vibes of the Raksha Bandhan festival, is very much on track to open around Akshay Kumar's last film, Samrat Prithviraj. Going by the advance booking, the 8-9 crores opening is a sure shot, but we are expecting it to have a better spot booking, which, hopefully, will help the film to open around 10-11 crores net. ## The best thing for both the movies is that they have a long holiday weekend ahead. So, if the critics' reviews and word of mouth is positive, both LSC and RB have all the potential to grow over the weekend, which is likely to happen. In combination, the Bollywood industry can expect 23-25 crores against its overestimated 30 crores net. ## Stay tuned...

Filmmakers Are Making OTT A Challange To Cinema, Says Aamir Khan

Mumbai, August 8 - Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan, who is gearing up for the release of his most-awaited comedy-drama film Laal Singh Chaddha, said that the digital platforms are not a challenge to big screen cinema but the filmmakers are making it a challenge to the cinema. ## Aamir was recently in Chennai for the promotions of Laal Singh Chaddha. During an interview with Galatta, the superstar spoke about what the Indian film industry needs to do to save cinema. It is a well-known fact that Aamir is a huge ambassador of big screens cinema and his upcoming movie is also designed for the big screen only. ## During the covid-19 pandemic, many films opted for a short theatrical window which has largely backfired. Aamir said that the industry must understand that to save cinema, there must be a bigger gap between theatrical release and OTT premiere. ## The actor went on to say that the industry is not putting effort to bring the audiences to the theaters by keeping a short theatrical window. He said that when a movie will come to OTT within 4 weeks, how can filmmakers expect the audience to come to theaters to watch movies. ## Adding further, the PK actor said that the industry should give a clear choice to the audience that if they want to watch the film on OTT then they have to wait for 6 months. Making a valid point, Aamir said that if the movie is good and being appreciated, then the audience will feel that they should not miss it if the theater window is 6 months. ## For economical and time reasons, films can't come on OTT so fast. If they do, cinema will stand no chance. It's in our hands, we have to decide. My film won't come to OTT for 6 months. Either watch my film in the theater or wait for 6 months, he added.## Directed by Advait Chandan, Laal Singh Chaddha also stars Kareena Kapoor, Naga Chaitanya (in his Hindi film debut), and Mona Singh. It is scheduled to release on August 11 in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.## Stay tuned...

Laal Singh Chaddha Versus Raksha Bandhan Clash

Mumbai, August 7 - This Thursday will see two huge films Laal Singh Chaddha starring Aamir Khan & Rakshbandhan starring Akshay Kumar colliding with each other at the box office. The clash is huge as both Aamir Khan and Akshay Kumar are among the biggest stars of the nation with huge fanbases across all segments. ## The last time when these two stars came together was in 2007 when Welcome starring Akshay Kumar clashed with Aamir Khan's Taare Zameen Par. Welcome took bumper opening at the box office while Taare Zameen Par was a non-starter but Taare Zameen Par trended exceedingly well. Eventually, both the films proved to be blockbusters at the box office, and the expectations are going to replicate a similar level of success. ## Laal Singh Chaddha is an official remake of the Hollywood classic Forrest Gump while Rakshabandhan is an original story but the subject of brother-sister has been used in many films before so the novelty factor will be missing from both the films.## The advance booking of both the films has already started and as expected Laal Singh Chaddha is maintaining a healthy lead over its contemporary Rakshabandhan. Laal Singh Chaddha will have a 50% or higher final advance than Rakshabandhan. Even the opening day figures are going to be like same as Aamir Khan has better initial pull than Akshay Kumar in almost all the circuits of India with a huge difference being in South India where Aamir Khan has a strong following. Akshay Kumar has better pull in Bihar and a few other out-and-out mass circuits but Rakshabandhan is not a type of film where masses will lap on initially. ## The other side of this clash is that Rakshabandhan is a much safer film in this clash as the making cost of Rakshabandhan is not even 50% of Laal Singh Chaddha so even if the film does the business of 100cr net, It will be a successful film for its makers while Laal Singh Chaddha has to do over 150 cr net for being a successful or better film. ## The good thing for both films is that the window is huge for 11th August with many holidays falling in the first week so if the content of both the films gets appreciated then the numbers will come automatically. The single-day collections on 11th August should be in the range of 25-30crs and if this happens then the industry will be in a joyous mood.## Stay tuned...

Mumbai, August 7 - Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor is reportedly in talks to headline the Hindi remake of the Malayalam neo-noir psychological thriller film Mumbai Police, which starred Prithviraj Sukumaran in the lead role. The Rosshan Andrrews-directed film was a big box office hit and Prithviraj's performance was regarded as one of his career-best.## According to a peepingmoon.com report (now deleted), the rumored talks regarding the Hindi remake are in the advanced stage with Siddharth Roy Kapur's Roy Kapur Films bankrolling it. Shahid Kapoor is said to have given his verbal node and the paperwork will be done soon. Rosshan Andrrews will reportedly be directing the Hindi adaptation too.## The Mumbai Police remake is expected to go on floors in the first quarter of next year after Shahid completes filming for Dinesh Vijan's robot rom-com film co-starring Kriti Sanon. While the latter movie is yet to be announced, reports say it will commence shooting in October/November this year. ## Mumbai Police revolves around a police officer investigating a murder while also suffering from partial memory loss due to an accident. Shahid will be seen stepping into the shoes of Prithviraj Sukumaran, who played a carefree, brash young officer who needs to retrace his past in order to unravel the mystery behind a crime he had been probing before losing his memory. ## Stay tuned...

Mumbai, August 5 - Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan, who is gearing up for the release of Laal Singh Chaddha, recently graced Karan Johar's Koffee With Karan show with Kareena Kapoor. The duo had blast on the show and made several revelations about their movies. ## During the famous rapid-fire round in the show, filmmaker Karan Johar asked Aamir, which of these films would he like to redo or fix. He then gave the options - Mela, Mangal Panday, and Thugs Of Hindostan. ## To which, Aamir replied, "Mela and Thugs Of Hindostan. Perhaps we did not achieve what we set out to. I would like to correct those two".## It is to be noted that Mela, which was released in 2000, tanked at the box office. It also stars Twinkle Khanna and Aamir's brother Faisal Khan.

The film received criticism from critics, which is very rare for Aamir Khan's film. ## Stay tuned...
