Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan Second Sunday Early Estimates

Mumbai, April 30 - Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has shown much-needed growth on the second Sunday of its box office run as the early estimate collections suggest 4.25-4.50 crores net which is a fair number, especially for a film that has not been liked by the audiences. The growth has come mainly in the core mass belts of Hindi circuits where the film has found an appreciation though that is mainly because of the image of Salman Khan. ## The second Sunday box office collections of Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan will take the total collections of the film to over 100cr net box office mark, depending where actuals lend. The film has taken around 10 days to cross the 100cr net box office mark which is one of the slowest Salman Khan starrers. The 100cr net box office mark is not a benchmark anymore. This is the 16th film of Salman Khan which crossed 100cr net box office collections and all 16 films were consecutive which makes this achievement even more enviable. ## The film is still not a hit film as it needed to cross 150cr net box office collections for hit status at the box office but the film is looking to finish around 115-120cr net box office collections in the best-case scenario. If the film can touch this number then it will be an average success at the box office. This is another Salman Khan starrer that did not do well at the box office but the next few films of Salman Khan are in the right zone which justifies his superstardom and if the content of those upcoming films connects with the audiences, the sky will be the limit in terms of numbers.## Stay tuned...

Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan Second Saturday Early Estimates

Mumbai, April 29 - Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has shown growth on the second Saturday as the early estimate collections suggest around 3-3.50 crores net collections. This is a low second Saturday for such a big film like KKBKKJ but post-pandemic when most films run out of fuel in the first three days only, here it can be called a decent number.## The second Saturday collections will take the total box office collections of the film to around 96 crores net box office mark depending on the final second Saturday business. The film is looking to cross the 100cr mark by this Sunday and for that, the film needs to show a big growth tomorrow to get a 4.50cr net box office mark. This number should have been crossed way earlier but the film has not performed as per the expectations.## KKBKKJ is heading for around 115cr to 120cr finish at the box office in terms of lifetime numbers. This will lead to the average status for this Salman Khan entertainer. The last few films of Salman Khan have not performed well at the box office as his last hit was Bharat in 2019 which crossed the 200cr net box office mark and his last blockbuster came in 2017 in the form of Tiger Zinda Hai which crossed the 300cr net. The hope is that Tiger 3 will bring the vintage Salman Khan back who set the box office on fire last decade as no other star did in the history of Hindi cinema. ## Stay tuned...

The film had a low opening day but covered the ground on the second and third days. The first Monday hold was good and the Tuesday collections were also decent but the film lost since Wednesday and since then it is on a downward trajectory. ## KKBKKJ was looking like a 150 crores lifetime film after the first Monday but the second Friday confirmed that the lifetime business of the movie will be around the 120cr net box office mark or even lower.

Rashmika Mandanna Joins Vicky Kaushal In Dinesh Vijan's Period Drama 'Chhava'

Mumbai, April 28 - Earlier this year, it was reported that Vicky Kaushal was roped in to headline director Laxman Utekar's period drama film, titled Chhava under Dinesh Vijan's Maddock Films production. The pre-production also commenced while the makers were in the process to lock the other cast. ## Now, according to Peepingmoon.com, the makers have roped in National Crush Rashmika Mandanna to play the female lead role, making her first big screen appearance with Vicky Kaushal. She has been brought on board to play the role of Sambhaji Maharaj's wife, Yesubai Bhonsale. ## The movie is primarily about Sambhaji Maharaj, the eldest son of the Maratha empire's founder and the great warrior king, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. However, it also features an emotional love story between a husband and wife. Sambhaji Raje and his wife jointly held the throne as the emperor. ## Rashmika, who is actively working across multiple industries, was said to be the only choice of the makers for the female lead role and was locked following her look test recently. The report further revealed that Rashmika will receive voice coaching while Vicky will train for four months to become proficient in sword fighting, horseback riding, and archery for this movie. ## "Chhava" is believed to be the most expensive production yet for Vijan's Maddock Films which has sanctioned a huge budget to make this film a truly visual extravaganza. The pre-production is already in full swing and the regular shoot is expected to commence in September this year. ## Meanwhile, Vicky already has a film with Maddock Films and Laxman Utekar. Titled "Zara Hatke Zara Bachke", the romantic comedy also stars Sara Ali Khan as the female lead, and it will be released soon in theaters worldwide. ## Stay tuned...

Director Aditya Dhar's 'The Immortal Ashwatthama' Gets Shelved Over Budget Issue

Mumbai, April 28 - Filmmaker Aditya Dhar has been working on his passion project The Immortal Ashwatthama for a long time. It was announced in January 2021 with Vicky Kaushal as the lead. RSVP was on board to produce this mega-budget movie. ## However, the movie has been in trouble which eventually led RSVP to back out as the studio was unable to allot the huge budget Dhar was asking for. Vicky Kaushal too left the movie due to his other commitments. Just when the movie was on the verge of getting shelved, Dhar tried to revive the project by offering it to Ranveer Singh by bringing Jio Studios on board to produce. ## Well, it seems the movie is still not finding its place as the latest reports state that Jio Studios too backed out, and the movie has been shelved for the time being. According to Peepingmoon.com, the studio didn't approve the budget Dhar was asking for as there is a risk involved in making films with huge budgets in the post-pandemic times. ## The report further stated Aditya Dhar has halted the pre-production work and the crew involved with this film has also been relieved now as he understands that there is definitely a big risk with this project. However, "The Immortal Ashwatthama" is Dhar's passion project and he will definitely return to bring it to the big screen but not right now. ## Over the last one year, the movie has been offered to many actors, including Yash, Allu Arjun, and Jr. NTR, but things didn't materialize with them. Ranveer Singh, however, was interested and even gave his verbal nod. Dhar is now looking to explore other projects. ## Stay tuned...

Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan First Thursday Early Estimates

Mumbai, April 27 - Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan struggles on the first Thursday of its box office run as the early estimated collections are heading for around the 3.50cr net box office mark which is a low number. The film is not a big-budget film but still, it's a big film especially because it stars Salman Khan and these numbers are below the mark of what one expects from him. ## The first Thursday business will take the total business of Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan to around 90cr net box office mark depending on the actual number of first Thursday. The 100cr net box mark which was expected to cross by the second Friday seems like a distant dream now. The film will cross the 100cr net box office mark but it will be mostly on Saturday or at worst by Sunday. ## The second Friday hold and the growth on Saturday and Sunday will determine where the lifetime business of the film is heading. At the moment it looks like the film will finish its box office run around 125cr net box office mark. ## The mass centers have seen big crowds in all the Hindi circuits due to the face value of Salman Khan and without any doubt he is the biggest in the mass audiences of single screens and smaller towns but the multiplexes especially the bigger ones have rejected the film. ## Stay Tuned...

Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan First Wednesday Early Estimates

Mumbai, April 26 - Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan which took an expected hit in collections yesterday has shown another drop but a better hold today at the box office by registering around 20% fewer collections compared to yesterday. The early estimate collections suggest around 5 crores net on Wednesday. ## The first Wednesday collections will take the total collections of the film to around 88cr net mark and now the 100 crores net in the first week is out of the equation. The film will hit the 100 crore mark on the second Friday or Saturday. It is the hold on the second Friday that will determine the fate of the film at the box office.## The collections and the hold in mass centers are fabulous but at the same time, the multiplexes are recording dull collections. The core Hindi mass belts have seen a good turnout which is a big plus as post-pandemic these audiences were the ones that the Industry has lost and now they are coming back with Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan. ## The film will be an underperformer at the box office especially because it stars Salman Khan who has a mega box office record since the beginning of the last decade. The word of the mouth of the film has been on the mixed side and that is now coming to the equation. The lifetime business is still hard to predict but the film should do a minimum of 125cr net box office from here on.## Stay tuned...

Box Office: Salman Khan's 'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan' Gets The First Taste of Negative Reviews

Mumbai, April 26 - After enjoying festive first few days, Salman Khan's family action drama Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has got the first taste of negative critics reviews and audiences' word of mouth in its box office collection after it dropped by 40% on the first Tuesday, one of the biggest first Tuesday drops for an A-list star post the covid-19 pandemic. ## Directed by Farhad Samji, "Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan" was probably the least hyped Salman Khan film in many years, plus, the pre-Eid release ensured it takes an underwhelming opening of around 13.50 crores net. Not many films scored much after the low start, especially with the negative reviews but it has proved that such things don't apply to Salman and his stardom. ## After an underwhelming start, KKBKKJ jumped by nearly 90% on its second day, Eid for around 25.75 crores net, followed by another jump on Sunday for around 26.60 crores. It managed to score a decent to good opening weekend of around 67 crores, purely because of the huge pull of Salman. ## There was fear that the movie would tank on Monday, however, being a partial holiday in some places, KKBKKJ did well by holding strong for around 10.20 crores net, but the negative reviews were going to hunt it at some point and this happened on the next day, i.e. Tuesday on which it scored just around 6.10 crores, a harsh 39.82% drop from Monday. ## The total net collection of the film after 5 days is 82.15 crores, and one would feel that such box office numbers with poor reviews in the post-pandemic times could become possible only because of Salman Khan's stardom. In current times, when superstardom is becoming irrelevant, KKBKKJ was a litmus test for Salman to show his star power, and he managed to prove it to some extent. ## However, despite all odds, KKBKKJ was destined to cross 100 crores net, a landmark box office figure most of the films have failed to achieve in the post-covid-era. It will breach the 100 crores mark by the second Friday or Saturday and will make Salman the only Indian actor to have 16 films in the 100 crores club. ## Stay tuned...

Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan First Tuesday Early Estimates

Mumbai, April 25 - Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has seen a drop today as the early estimate collections suggest around 7.50-8 crores net. The film has shown around a 30% drop from yesterday. A drop around 20% would have been a good hold.## The first Tuesday collections will take the total collections of Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan to around 83.50 crores net mark. The film has an outside chance to hit 100cr net box office collections in the first week but for that, it has to hold superbly well in the next two days. ## By the second Friday, KKBKKJ will easily cruise past the 100cr net which although is not a benchmark anymore, especially for a superstar like Salman Khan these are respectable numbers coming post-pandemic when only a handful of films have gone over the 100cr mark in their lifetime run. ## The footfalls of Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan till now are more than most films that had a similar business as the major chunk of collections is coming from single screens and not from the premium multiplexes. Also, the film has found appreciation in tier 2 and tier 3 cities which were the target audience for the film.## Stay tuned...

Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan First Monday Early Estimates

Mumbai, April 24 - Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan who had a decent first weekend at the box office after a sluggish start has passed the Monday test with flying colors. The collections coming across single screens are excellent and in many places, they are better than the first day which was hit by pre-eid. The trend of the film has been good till now. ## The early estimate collections for Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan on the first Monday suggest around 10-11 crores net. The final number may vary by a little bit on either side. The drop from Friday is around 20-30% which is an excellent hold. The footfalls will be similar to the 1st day as the rates have come down to the normal level from the weekend.## The first Monday collections will take the total collections of the movie to around 75 crores net mark depending on the actual first Monday collections which will be known by tomorrow morning. The smaller centers are driving the film thanks to the extraordinary pull of Salman Khan in mass belts but at the same time, the major multiplexes are not doing that well. The hold on Monday has confirmed that the film will enjoy a good run at the box office, especially in the mass belts of Hindi circuits. ## These numbers are solid for the type of budget the film has but with Salman Khan on board, these numbers look average at best. It will be interesting to know how the film performs over the next few days and what sort of growth it shows on the second weekend. The film will enjoy a free run at the box office for some weeks.## Stay tuned...
