Dhamaal 4 released in theatres today, July 10, 2026, opening as one of the most anticipated family entertainers of the year. The film marks the return of one of Bollywood's most successful comedy franchises, which has collectively grossed approximately ₹355 crore across its previous three installments. The fourth part looks to build on that legacy with a mix of returning favorites and new faces. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The film sees Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, and Arshad Warsi returning to the madness, this time joined by Ravi Kishan, Sanjeeda Shaikh, and Esha Gupta. Deviating from the standard road-trip formula, Dhamaal 4 introduces sea pirates and supernatural elements as the gang tracks down a ₹50 crore treasure. Notably, the film received a UA 13+ rating from the CBFC with zero scene cuts, making it a wide-access film for family audiences. Initial trends suggest the film is finding its footing in major circuits like Maharashtra and Delhi-NCR. While the franchise started in 2007 as a cult comedy inspired by the Hollywood classic 'It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World', the fourth installment aims to capture the box office momentum seen by Total Dhamaal. The coming hours will be crucial to see how spot bookings translate into the final Day 1 numbers.

One of the most notable director-actor pairings in Kollywood cinema has officially announced their next project. Dhanush and Vetri Maaran, the creative duo behind films like Polladhavan, Aadukalam, Vada Chennai, and Asuran, are reuniting for their fifth collaboration. Titled Thamizh Murugan, the first look of the film was unveiled today, July 10, 2026, marking a significant milestone for the pair who have consistently delivered both critical and commercial successes over the years. For months, fans have been desperately waiting for any news regarding Vada Chennai 2. However, the creators have thrown a complete curveball with this announcement. Moving away from the gritty, contemporary gangster and crime-drama roots that defined their previous work, the duo is mounting a grand, culturally rooted historical epic. Centered around the Tamil deity Lord Murugan—referenced in the hashtag #sonofkottravai—the film looks to explore ancient Tamil identity and leadership on a scale never seen before in Kollywood. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The technical crew for the project brings its own set of surprises. The film is written by the prominent lyricist-writer Arivumathi. However, the biggest talking point is the music director. In an unexpected twist, the musical reins have been handed over to the sensational Sai Abhyankkar. Known for his viral global hits like Katchi Sera, this marks a significant shift for Vetri Maaran, who has traditionally collaborated with veterans like Santhosh Narayanan or G.V. Prakash Kumar. The film is being produced jointly by Dhanush’s own banner, Wunderbar Films, alongside Production Miles To Go. Industry trackers are noting that Thamizh Murugan firmly cements Kollywood’s massive new wave of divine and folkloric blockbusters. With several faith-and-legend-driven films currently in development across the industry, Dhanush and Vetri Maaran are clearly looking to set a new benchmark in the genre. The first look poster, featuring Dhanush in a warrior avatar atop a decorated elephant holding a spear, has already sparked intense discussion about the film's visual language. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The Eternal Protector, warrior, THE KING & LEADER of the Thamizh people and lands.#sonofkottravaiதமிழ் முருகன் 🙏🙏🙏THAMIZH MURUGAN https://t.co/3wjGHGfAjG— Dhanush (@dhanushkraja) July 10, 2026 Interestingly, fans on social media are already drawing nostalgic comparisons to Dhanush's 2011 movie Seedan, where he played an extended cameo as a modern-day incarnation of Lord Murugan. While that was a simple family drama, Thamizh Murugan appears to be a much more intense, high-budget warrior epic. As of now, the project is moving under the working tag #DxV, and with the first look already breaking records in engagement, the anticipation for this dream reunion is at an all-time high.

The contemporary romantic drama Love Oh Love hit the big screens today, July 10, 2026, aiming to capture the pulse of the younger generation. Directed by Magesh Rajendran and starring newcomers Pavish and Nagadurga in the lead roles, the film explores the complexities of modern-age relationships, focusing on themes like possessiveness, lifestyle differences, and the friction between men and women in a commercial format. On its opening day, the film has recorded a modest start at the box office. According to early tracking data, Love Oh Love is currently running across 523 shows in India and has collected a net of approximately ₹0.10 crore. This brings the total India gross collection to roughly ₹0.12 crore so far. The film saw an overall occupancy of around 14%, with the Tamil version leading the footprint across 317 shows and the Telugu version contributing through 206 shows. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Initial critical reception has been largely positive, particularly regarding its appeal to Gen Z audiences. Trade analyst Ramesh Bala gave the film a 3.5/5 rating, calling it an entertaining theatrical watch with standout dialogues and a strong musical score by Foxn Music. He noted that while the first half focuses on fun, the second half brings in emotional depth and fresh ideas on romance. Similarly, critic Rajasekar rated the film 3/5, drawing comparisons between the lead actor Pavish and the early-career energy of Dhanush. He mentioned that the film’s execution occasionally reminds viewers of the hit film Love Today, particularly in its treatment of flawed relationships. While he suggested that certain sensitive dialogues intended for comedy could have been avoided, he credited the film for being an adequately entertaining commercial venture for its target demographic. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Given the niche romantic-comedy genre and the lack of a heavy star cast, the film's trajectory will now depend on evening show growth and weekend word-of-mouth. While the Day 1 numbers are on the lower side, romantic films of this nature often find stability through family and youth audiences over their first three days. Final first-day collections are yet to be reported as late-night show data is compiled. #LoveOhLove [3.5/5] : A fun, romantic entertainer.

Ajay Devgn has carved out a unique space for himself where he effortlessly balances high-octane action with mass-market comedy. While he is often associated with the intense Singham persona, his track record in the comedy genre is arguably just as impressive. With Dhamaal 4 arriving in cinemas today, July 10, 2026, all eyes are on the box office to see if this new installment can break into the list of his all-time biggest comedy openers. Top 5 Comedy Openers of Ajay Devgn - India Net CollectionMOVIE NAMEDAY 1 NET COLLECTIONRELEASE YEARGolmaal Again₹ 30.14 Cr2017Total Dhamaal₹ 16.50 Cr2019Bol Bachchan₹ 12.10 Cr2012Golmaal 3₹ 8.10 Cr2010Double Dhamaal₹ 7.60 Cr2011 (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) At the top of the pyramid sits Golmaal Again, which remains a landmark film in the genre. Its opening of 30.14 crore in 2017 is particularly historic because it came during a massive Diwali clash against Secret Superstar. Despite the competition, the Rohit Shetty-Ajay Devgn brand ensured maximum theatre occupancy, making it the highest opening day ever for a Bollywood comedy at the time. It eventually finished as one of the career-best performers for Devgn, proving that family audiences would turn up in droves for the right brand of humor. Total Dhamaal holds the second spot with a 16.50 crore opening in 2019. What makes this number special is that it was achieved on a standard, non-holiday Friday. Most big openers rely on festival windows, but this film relied purely on mass-market dominance, especially in circuits like Gujarat and Central India. It also famously reunited the hit pair of Anil Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit after seventeen years, adding a layer of nostalgia that helped it kick off a double-blockbuster year for the actor. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Looking at the 2012 release Bol Bachchan, its 12.10 crore start was a significant milestone because double-digit openings were relatively rare back then for comedy films. It was also a breakthrough film for Devgn in overseas markets, particularly in the UAE and North America, where it collected 2.05 million dollars in its first weekend. It remains one of the fastest comedies of that era to cross the 100 crore net mark, finishing its domestic run at an exact 103.12 crore. Golmaal 3, which released in 2010, remains one of the most significant milestones in the history of Indian comedy. It shattered long-standing records by becoming the first-ever film in a Bollywood comedy franchise to enter the prestigious 100 crore net club. Backed by a lean production budget of 40 crore, the film performed exceptionally well not just in India but also in international markets, securing over 18 crore in overseas collections. It eventually finished with a massive 162.30 crore worldwide gross, earning an undisputed Blockbuster verdict and setting the stage for the even larger sequels that followed. Following closely in 2011 was Double Dhamaal, which recorded a solid 7.60 crore on its opening day. This film was a massive win in terms of profitability, achieving complete recovery and earning a Hit verdict with an India lifetime net of 44.10 crore. It was a true heavyweight in the mass market, deriving more than 65% of its total theatrical footfalls from single-screen theatres and B-centers across North and Central India. This performance established the Dhamaal brand as a family-favorite commercial draw, eventually closing its global run with a 71 crore worldwide gross. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) So, where does Dhamaal 4 stand in this elite company? Current tracking and advance booking data suggest that the film is heading for a very strong start. With a net advance of 2.57 crore and steady morning occupancy of around 8.38 percent, trade experts are projecting an opening day in the range of 10 to 14.5 crore net. If the film touches the upper end of these estimates, it will comfortably overtake Bol Bachchan to secure the third spot on this list, trailing only behind the massive holiday records of Golmaal Again and Total Dhamaal. Even a mid-range performance will see it easily surpassing the initial day figures of Golmaal 3 and Double Dhamaal, solidifying the Dhamaal brand's enduring pull at the box office. The momentum for Dhamaal 4 is being driven by strong ticket sales on BookMyShow, which saw over 33,000 tickets sold in the morning hours alone. While it may not challenge the massive holiday record of Golmaal Again, entering the top three would be a significant achievement for the franchise. It would further solidify Ajay Devgn's position as a consistent star in the comedy space, showing that his brand of entertainment continues to resonate with both multiplex and single-screen audiences.

Before the global spotlight hits the international stage, the makers of Ramayana are starting their journey at home by engaging with India's youngest creators. They have launched the Colours of Ramayana contest, an art competition specifically for school students across the nation. It's a creative call to bring the ancient epic to life through paintings and sketches, with some very exciting rewards on the line. Winners won't just get official limited-edition merchandise; they will also get a world-first chance to watch the movie's trailer in 3D in theaters before anyone else. This local initiative, which closes for entries on July 14, 2026, is just the first step in a massive marketing campaign that is now heading toward a historic global debut. The scale of this outreach is truly massive, with the promotional tour set to actively reach over 400 schools across 18 major cities in India. The goal is to connect directly with more than 5 lakh students through various interactive segments. Beyond just the art competition, the team is hosting historical quizzes and educational sessions designed to make the epic's rich history relatable to the younger generation.

Namit Malhotra and Nitesh Tiwari’s upcoming retelling of the Ramayana is heading to the prestigious San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) for a major international showcase on July 23, 2026. This move places the Indian epic alongside top-tier global franchises and television networks that traditionally dominate the event. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) For its exclusive international debut, the movie has been officially titled Ramayana: The Epic Begins. The panel is scheduled to take place in Ballroom 20, located on the upper level of the San Diego Convention Center. To understand the scale of this event, one must look at the venue itself. Ballroom 20 is the second-largest hall at SDCC, boasting a massive seating capacity of approximately 4,800 to 5,000 attendees. Historically, this space is reserved for major studio presentations and top-tier television networks. With this milestone, Ramayana becomes only the second Indian film in history to secure a major hall showcase at SDCC, following in the footsteps of Kalki 2898 AD. The panel is scheduled for Thursday, July 23, 2026, running for exactly one hour from 3:15 PM to 4:15 PM PDT. For fans in India who want to track the updates live, the event will kick off early the next morning at 3:15 AM IST on Friday, July 24. The creators are treating this as a Hollywood-grade international launch, intended to introduce the scale of the Indian epic to a global audience. The lineup for the panel is equally impressive. Lead superstars Ranbir Kapoor, who portrays Lord Ram, and Yash, who plays Ravana, will take the stage live alongside director Nitesh Tiwari and producer Namit Malhotra, who is also the Global CEO of the Academy Award-winning VFX powerhouse DNEG. Their presence indicates a significant level of commitment to the film’s international positioning, offering fans a chance for live interactions and interviews. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) One of the most intriguing highlights of the presentation will be the reveal of world-first technology. The team is expected to unveil a special version of the trailer that utilizes Brahma AI. This is an indigenously developed, advanced artificial intelligence system designed to sync English lip movements perfectly with the live-action footage. This technological leap aims to solve the immersion issues often found in dubbed content, making the film more accessible to international viewers without losing the impact of the performances. Beyond the technical reveals, attendees in Ballroom 20 will be treated to never-before-seen footage and exclusive behind-the-scenes breakdown clips that detail how this ancient epic was visualized for the modern big screen. The one-hour block also promises live stage performances and special limited-edition giveaways for those inside the hall. While the global marketing kicks off in San Diego, the makers are also engaging audiences back home through the Colours of Ramayana art contest, which offers Indian school students a chance to win exclusive merchandise and early trailer screenings.

For fans of Thalapathy Vijay, the journey toward his final cinematic outing has been a long and somewhat turbulent one. After months of uncertainty and legal discussions, there is finally a concrete update regarding his 69th film, titled Jana Nayagan. This project carries immense weight as it is expected to be his farewell to the silver screen before he transitions fully into his political career. The latest development comes in the form of the official censor certificate, which has cleared the way for the film to reach theaters after a significant delay. The film has been awarded an A certificate by the Central Board of Film Certification, which is a notable departure for a Vijay starrer. Typically, his films aim for a wider family audience with a U or U/A rating, but the A rating suggests that director H. Vinoth has opted for a more intense and raw approach to the storytelling. This likely aligns with the film's reported genre as a political action thriller. According to the certificate details, Jana Nayagan has a runtime of 183 minutes, which translates to a total duration of approximately 3 hours and 3 minutes. For a political drama, this length suggests an expansive narrative that will likely touch upon several serious themes. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) It is worth noting that while an Adults Only rating is rare for the actor now, this isn't the first time in his career. Back in 2002, his film Bagavathi also received an 'A' certificate from the CBFC due to its high-octane and graphic action sequences. At that time, the theatrical version was cleared with seven cuts to moderate specific murder scenes. Interestingly, the film had to undergo a much more rigorous process later to obtain a 'U' certificate for television, requiring 32 cuts that heavily reduced or deleted various violent sequences. To understand how significant this certification is, we have to look at the hurdles the production team faced over the last several months. Jana Nayagan was originally intended for a major festival release in January, but it got stuck in a prolonged battle with the censor board. The disagreement reportedly involved several key scenes and dialogues that the board found sensitive. This led the producers, KVN Productions, to approach the Madras High Court to resolve the deadlock. After nearly seven months of legal back-and-forth, the certification was finally granted on July 9, 2026, marking a major victory for the makers. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The technical and creative team behind the film is equally high-profile. Directed by H. Vinoth, the film features music by Anirudh Ravichander, who has become a staple for Vijay’s recent blockbusters. The cast is a massive ensemble featuring Pooja Hegde and Mamitha Baiju in lead roles, alongside Bobby Deol, who is expected to play the primary antagonist. Other seasoned actors like Prakash Raj and Priyamani are also part of the project, adding further depth to the political landscape the movie aims to portray. Reports suggest the film is a reimagined version of the 2023 hit Bhagavanth Kesari, tailored to fit the current political image of the lead star. Now that the legal and administrative blocks have been cleared, the release machinery has started moving rapidly. Confirmation has already been sent to overseas distributors to prepare for a grand release on July 24. This date is seen as an ideal window to maximize the film's reach globally before the domestic rollout. Distributors in major markets like North America, the UK, and the UAE are reportedly readying their schedules for what is being touted as one of the biggest Tamil releases of the year. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Beyond the domestic expectations, there is a massive historical record on the line in the international markets. With his previous two releases, Leo and GOAT, Thalapathy Vijay has already secured consecutive 5 million dollar overseas opening grossers. If Jana Nayagan manages to hit that same benchmark, he will become the first Indian actor to achieve a hat-trick of 5 million dollar openers. This is a milestone that even other major pan-Indian stars have come close to but haven't quite clinched. For instance, Prabhas registered back-to-back 6 million dollar openers with Salaar and Kalki, but that streak ended with RajaSaab. Similarly, Jr NTR saw consecutive 5 million dollar openings with RRR and Devara before that run was broken by War 2. This leaves the door open for Vijay to potentially create history and claim this unique record just as he prepares for his final bow. As Jana Nayagan moves toward its premiere, the focus will be on how the audience reacts to this more mature, adult-rated version of their favorite star. For Vijay, this film is more than just another commercial release; it is a statement and a bridge to his future endeavors. With the certificate now in hand and a release date locked, the final countdown for this political thriller has officially begun.

Mumbai, July 9 - After the massive success of Chhaava and a potential big success of the upcoming film Eetha, director Laxman Utekar is reportedly setting the wheels in motion for his next directorial venture. According to the latest industry reports, the director has approached Hrithik Roshan to headline an ambitious new film, although the project is still in its early stages and no agreement has been finalised yet. As per a Variety India report, Laxman Utekar recently narrated the script to Hrithik Roshan, who is said to have responded positively to the concept. However, the superstar is yet to make a final decision, as he is currently occupied with multiple commitments. If everything falls into place, the project will mark the first-ever collaboration between the actor and the acclaimed filmmaker. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Laxman Utekar has emerged as one of Bollywood's most successful directors in recent years with films such as Luka Chuppi, Mimi, Zara Hatke Zara Bachke, and the blockbuster historical drama Chhaava. He is currently awaiting the release of Eetha, a biographical drama starring Shraddha Kapoor, before moving on to his next feature. Meanwhile, Hrithik Roshan has an exciting slate ahead. The actor is currently focused on the pre-production of his directorial debut, Krrish 4. He will be next seen in Rajinikanth's Jailer 2 as he has already shot his cameo on June 22 and June 23 in Chennai. While reports of his collaboration with Laxman Utekar have generated considerable buzz, the project may take some time to start as Hrithik also has a movie with Hombale Films.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu made a highly anticipated return to the big screen with the action-drama Maa Inti Bangaaram, marking her first release after a three-year hiatus following Kushi. While the film was produced on a controlled budget estimated between 20 crore and 30 crore, it managed to recover its entire investment through pre-release business alone. This high demand allowed the movie to enter a pure profit zone from its very first day. Currently, its global performance is nearly three to four times its initial production cost, making it a significant commercial success. Looking at the Day 20 performance, which fell on its third Wednesday, the film earned an India gross of 0.46 crore. This shows a slight uptick from the previous day gross of 0.45 crore. In terms of net earnings, the movie collected 0.40 crore on Wednesday, representing a 2.6 percent growth compared to Tuesday. This steady momentum across 1,016 shows is noteworthy for a film entering its fourth week in theaters. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The cumulative totals for Maa Inti Bangaaram highlight its strong theatrical run. The total India gross now stands at 68.64 crore, while the total India net collection has reached 59.29 crore. On the international front, the film has grossed 26.60 crore overseas. According to data tracked by Venky Box Office, the movie earned 15,000 dollars (approx. 12.5 lakh) in North America on Tuesday, taking its total in that region to a significant 2.04 million dollars (approx. 17.10 crore). When we combine these figures, the total worldwide gross collection currently stands at approximately 95.24 crore. This milestone has been achieved across a total of 42,106 shows since its release. A regional breakdown of the collections shows that the Andhra Pradesh and Telangana (APTG) market remains the strongest contributor, with a cumulative gross of 51.24 crore. On Day 20 specifically, this region added 0.37 crore to the gross. Karnataka has also been a major territory, contributing a total gross of 10.77 crore so far. Interestingly, the film is now just 72 lakh behind the Karnataka box office collection of HIT: The Third Case. With this performance, Samantha has surpassed the career-best Karnataka collections of stars like Nani, Balakrishna, and Naga Chaitanya. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) In other states, Tamil Nadu has contributed a total gross of 5.31 crore, while Kerala and the rest of India have added 0.23 crore and 1.09 crore respectively. For the Telugu version on Day 20, the overall occupancy was 11.12 percent. Hyderabad led the major regions with 13.5 percent occupancy across 208 shows, followed by Vizag at 12.5 percent and Bengaluru at 12.3 percent. These consistent occupancy rates across the third week suggest that the film is still finding an audience in urban centers. The audience engagement is also visible on digital platforms. On BookMyShow, the film saw 6,310 tickets booked on Wednesday, following 8,240 tickets on Tuesday. This brings the total number of tickets sold on the platform to approximately 15.41 lakh. This level of sustained interest on a booking platform is a good indicator of the film’s long-tail potential in theaters. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Looking at the national cinema chains for Wednesday, PVR recorded approximately 470 tickets sold for a gross of 1 lakh. INOX and Cinepolis followed with roughly 230 and 390 tickets respectively, contributing a combined gross of about 1.30 lakh. In total, these major chains accounted for approximately 1,090 tickets and a combined gross of 2.35 lakh for the day. While these are smaller numbers compared to the opening week, they reflect the typical tapering off seen in a movie’s third week of release. With its worldwide gross now approaching the 100 crore mark, Maa Inti Bangaaram has solidified its position as a profitable venture for its producers and distributors. For Samantha, this successful comeback confirms her drawing power at the box office, particularly in the southern markets.

The Golmaal franchise has been a cornerstone of Indian comedy for nearly two decades. Since its debut in 2006, Rohit Shetty has managed to turn this ensemble caper into one of the most successful film series in the country. As the team works on the fifth installment, officially titled Golmaal FIVE, new details are emerging about the cast and characters that indicate a shift from the typical formula of the series. According to an exclusive report by Variety India, the National Award-winning actress Priyamani has joined the cast in a significant role. Interestingly, she is set to portray a negative character, which is a departure from the usual casting choices in this franchise. Priyamani is no stranger to working with this team; she previously collaborated with Rohit Shetty on the popular dance number 1 2 3 4 Get on the Dance Floor in Chennai Express and shared the screen with Ajay Devgn in the biographical sports drama Maidaan. Seeing her in a villainous arc within a comic setting will be an interesting addition to the film's entertainment quotient. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The production, which officially went on floors in February 2026, has already made headlines for its massive casting choices. The biggest surprise was the addition of Akshay Kumar, marking a major casting coup for the franchise. Trade buzz suggests that Akshay might also be taking on a negative comedic role, adding a fresh layer of conflict to the story. Alongside him, the original gang is back in full force, featuring Ajay Devgn as Gopal, Arshad Warsi as Madhav, Tusshar Kapoor as Lucky, Shreyas Talpade as Laxman, and Kunal Kemmu as the second Laxman. Notably, Sharman Joshi is making a return to the franchise for the first time since the original 2006 film. Beyond the primary cast, franchise favorites like Johny Lever, Sanjay Mishra, Mukesh Tiwari, and Ashwini Kalsekar are all confirmed to return. However, there is a notable twist in the storytelling this time. Reports suggest that Golmaal FIVE will move away from traditional romantic subplots. There will reportedly be no primary heroine or romantic track for Ajay Devgn's character, shifting the entire focus toward the ensemble group madness and the chaotic dynamics between the characters. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Looking back at the box office history of this franchise, the trajectory has been one of steady growth. The journey began with Golmaal: Fun Unlimited in 2006, which earned approximately 47 crore worldwide and was a Superhit. Its sequel, Golmaal Returns in 2008, saw an increase in collections, grossing about 82 crore globally. The franchise hit a new peak with Golmaal 3 in 2010, which became a Blockbuster with a worldwide gross of 162 crore. The most recent entry, Golmaal Again in 2017, remains the highest earner of the series, grossing roughly 309 crore worldwide. With a combined total of over 600 crore from four films, the expectations for the fifth part are naturally quite high. The makers are currently aiming for a massive theatrical release in early 2027. This timing is intentional, as it will mark the 20th anniversary of the franchise that started it all. With the inclusion of stars like Akshay Kumar and Priyamani alongside the veteran cast, Rohit Shetty seems to be scaling up the production to ensure the milestone year is met with a significant commercial impact.
