The June 2026 Box Office War: Jr NTR's Dragon vs. Akshay Kumar's Welcome To The Jungle

The Indian box office is gearing up for a 2026 that looks less like a release schedule and more like a tactical war zone. Following the seismic announcement of Toxic clashing with Dhurandhar 2, the industry has been hit with another massive update that has set social media ablaze. On June 26, 2026, the Man of Masses Jr NTR will go head-to-head with Bollywood's most prolific superstar, Akshay Kumar. This direct collision between the gritty action saga Dragon and the ensemble comedy Welcome To The Jungle marks a high-stakes battle for screen dominance, pitting two very different cinematic worlds against each other. On one side of the ring stands Jr NTR in Dragon, a project that has sent shockwaves through the industry primarily because of its directorial pedigree. Directed by the Architect of Violence Prashanth Neel, Dragon represents the first collaboration between the RRR star and the man behind the KGF franchise and Salaar. The box office potential here is astronomical. Prashanth Neel's last directorial outing, Salaar: Part 1, grossed over ₹600 crore worldwide, while Jr NTR continues to ride the global momentum of RRR's ₹1,230 crore success. Shrouded in Neel's signature coal and gunpowder aesthetic, Dragon is expected to be a dark, high-octane action epic that targets the Mass centers across India with surgical precision. Challenging this fire is the third installment of one of Bollywood's most beloved comedy franchises: Welcome To The Jungle. Directed by Ahmed Khan, the film boasts a gargantuan ensemble cast featuring Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal, Sanjay Dutt, Arshad Warsi, Disha Patani, and Jacqueline Fernandez. While Akshay and Ahmed Khan's previous collaboration, Bachchhan Paandey, saw a modest lifetime collection of ₹74 crore, the Welcome brand carries immense nostalgic value. The original 2007 film was a SuperHit that earned nearly ₹120 crore two decades ago. The plot reportedly moves the iconic Uday-Majnu universe into a high-stakes jungle setting, aiming to capture the family audience that thrives on big-screen comedies. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   However, the most debated aspect of this schedule isn't just the clash with Jr NTR, but Akshay Kumar’s own internal competition. Just 30 days before entering the Jungle, Akshay is slated to release Bhooth Bangla in mid-May 2026. This project is arguably more anticipated as it reunites Akshay with legendary director Priyadarshan after 14 years. Their partnership is the stuff of box office legend, having delivered cult classics like Hera Pheri and the blockbuster Bhool Bhulaiyaa (2007). By releasing two massive tentpole films within a four-week window, the industry is questioning whether the Khiladi is risking audience fatigue. The overlap could lead to a scenario where Akshay’s own films fight for the same multiplex screens and ticket budgets. Ultimately, the June 26 clash reflects a High Risk, High Reward strategy that is becoming the hallmark of the 2026 calendar. While Dragon is expected to breathe fire across the South and the North’s mass circuits (UP, Bihar, and CP Berar), Welcome To The Jungle will rely on its legacy status to hold the urban multiplexes in Mumbai and Delhi. If both stay the course, 2026 will officially host the biggest North vs. South showdown, leaving theater owners to decide between the raw carnage of Neel's world or the nostalgic laughter of the Welcome family.

Luv Ranjan Sets 2026 Slate: Vadh 2 Confirmed; Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Dutt to Lead Action-Adventure Ranger

Filmmaker Luv Ranjan and his production banner, Luv Films, are gearing up for a massive 2026. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama, Luv Ranjan opened up about the studio's upcoming slate, which begins with the highly anticipated sequel Vadh 2, the veteran duo of Sanjay Mishra and Neena Gupta are set to return for the second installment, which is expected to carry forward the gritty and grounded thriller tone that won over audiences. The biggest revelation from the Bollywood Hungama, however, is a massive commercial venture tentatively titled Ranger. Luv Ranjan confirmed that this high-budget project will feature an explosive trio: Ajay Devgn, Sanjay Dutt, and Tamannaah Bhatia. Ranjan noted that it is shocking how two of the biggest action stars, Ajay and Sanjay, have never done a pure, dedicated action film together despite their decades-long careers. Ranger is set to bridge that gap as a full-blown action-adventure spectacle. While Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Dutt have shared the screen multiple times, their collaborations have primarily been defined by comedy and drama. Their most iconic pairing remains the 2012 Superhit Son of Sardaar. They have also entertained audiences together in comedies like All The Best: Fun Begins (2009) and the ensemble Hum Kisise Kum Nahin (2002). (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Beyond comedy, they appeared in 2021 war drama Bhuj: The Pride of India. However, as Luv Ranjan highlighted to Bollywood Hungama, Ranger will officially mark their first-ever collaboration in a dedicated action-adventure setting. This move from their usual comedic synergy to a high-octane adventure is expected to be a major crowd-puller, combining Devgn's intense persona with Dutt's legendary screen presence. By starting 2026 with a performance-heavy sequel like Vadh 2 and following it up with a massive commercial biggie like Ranger, Luv Films is showing significant range. The production house is successfully transitioning from contemporary romantic comedies to gritty thrillers and large-scale actioners. With the combined stardom of Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Dutt, and the pan-India popularity of Tamannaah Bhatia, Ranger is already positioning itself as one of the most anticipated releases of the coming year.

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge Teaser CBFC Rating and Runtime Details Confirmed; To Be Attached with Border 2

The anticipation for the continuation of the Dhurandhar saga has reached a new peak with the latest official update regarding its promotional material. On January 19, 2026, the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) officially certified the teaser for the sequel, titled Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge. In a move that highlights the film's gritty and high-octane nature, the teaser has been granted an A (Adults Only) certificate. The certified runtime for this first glimpse is clocked at exactly 1 minute and 48 seconds, promising a packed and intense introduction to the next chapter of the story. To maximize the film's reach, the makers have strategically decided to attach the Dhurandhar 2 teaser to the theatrical prints of the highly anticipated Border 2. Starting from Day 1 of the Border 2 release, audiences in cinemas will be the first to witness the return of the franchise on the big screen. This cross-promotion is expected to generate massive traction, given the overlapping audience base for both high-scale action spectacles. The sequel follows in the footsteps of a cinematic giant. Directed by Aditya Dhar, the first installment of Dhurandhar emerged as a generational blockbuster, redefining box office benchmarks for Indian cinema. The film featured an elite ensemble cast led by Ranveer Singh, alongside powerhouse performers like Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, and R. Madhavan. The plot, a sophisticated spy thriller centered on international espionage and high-stakes combat, resonated deeply with audiences globally. Currently continuing its record-shattering theatrical run, Dhurandhar has already achieved All Time Blockbuster status. The film's commercial performance remains extraordinary, having amassed a Worldwide Gross of ₹1283.5 crore to date. Its domestic journey has seen an India Net collection of ₹825.1 crore (Gross: ₹989.9 crore), while it continues to dominate international markets with an Overseas collection of ₹293.6 crore. The franchise's immense brand value was further solidified when Netflix acquired the combined digital rights for both parts in a landmark ₹130 crore deal, even as the first installment remains a top draw in cinemas. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Following the monumental success of the first installment, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge will see Ranveer Singh return as the primary lead, reprising his role as the undercover Indian agent Jaskirat Singh Rangi (Hamza). Director Aditya Dhar has finalized the return of the key ensemble cast, including Sanjay Dutt as SP Chaudhary Aslam, R. Madhavan as Ajay Sanyal, and Sara Arjun as Yalina. A significant development for the sequel is the return of Akshaye Khanna as Rehman Dakait; however, trade reports confirm his appearance is limited to pivotal flashback sequences that will explore the character's origins and deeper ties to the ongoing conflict. On the antagonistic front, the threat level is set to escalate as Arjun Rampal's character, Major Iqbal, takes a more central role following the events of the first film. The narrative will also revolve around the mysterious Bade Sahab, the shadow mastermind teased in Part 1, whose official casting is being kept under wraps by the makers for the theatrical release.With the sequel scheduled for theatrical release on March 19, 2026, the certification of the teaser marks the beginning of a high-decibel marketing campaign aimed at breaking the records set by its predecessor.

Dhurandhar Box Office: IMPPA Appeals to PM Modi to Lift Ban in 6 Gulf Countries After Film Enters ₹1200 Cr Club

The Indian Motion Picture Producers’ Association (IMPPA) has officially reached out to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, seeking his immediate intervention to lift the ban on the blockbuster spy thriller Dhurandhar across six Gulf nations. In a formal letter dated January 7, 2026, the producers' body termed the ban a suppression of the freedom of expression, especially since the film has already been cleared by India’s Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) and has emerged as a historic success. The appeal follows reports that authorities in the UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, and Saudi Arabia have restricted the film's release.The ban is reportedly due to the film's sensitive geopolitical plot, which follows Indian covert intelligence operations set against the backdrop of real-life terror events such as the 26/11 Mumbai attacks and the IC-814 hijacking. Despite its massive global popularity, Gulf censors have allegedly flagged the content as having anti-Pakistan messaging, a claim the filmmakers and IMPPA have moved to challenge through diplomatic channels. Massive Financial Setback: ₹90 Crore Lost. Directed by Uri fame Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh, Dhurandhar has emerged as an All Time Blockbuster, recently entering the elite ₹1,200 crore club worldwide. While it is currently nearing the all-time Hindi net record set by Pushpa 2: The Rule, the film has already cemented its place as one of the biggest Indian grossers in history. As per the latest reports, the film has amassed a Worldwide gross of ₹1228 Cr, with an India Net of ₹786 Cr, India Gross of ₹943 Cr, and Overseas collections reaching ₹285 Cr. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   However, despite these historic numbers, the lack of a Middle Eastern release—a traditional stronghold for Indian action films—has caused a significant financial dent.Overseas distributor Pranab Kapadia estimated that the ban across six Gulf countries has resulted in a loss of nearly $10 million (approx. ₹90 crore) from that market alone. IMPPA President Abhay Sinha emphasized in the letter to the Prime Minister that these are India-friendly countries with whom India shares robust economic and cultural ties, making the unilateral ban even more unexpected. The letter, which was also copied to Minister of External Affairs S. Jaishankar and I&B Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, urges the Government of India to engage with the respective authorities to ensure that artistic freedom is respected. Dhurandhar features an ensemble cast including Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal, portraying a high-octane operation set in Karachi's Lyari area. As the film continues its record-breaking run in North America and India, the industry remains hopeful that government-level dialogue will allow the millions of Indian expats in the Middle East to finally watch the film on the big screen.

Ranveer Singh Starrer Dhurandhar Nears Pushpa 2 Record Ahead of The Second Part's Titanic Clash with Yash's Toxic

Yash Raj Films has acknowledged the historic box office run of Dhurandhar, as the Ranveer Singh-starrer continues its sensational march in theatres. The Aditya Dhar directorial has not only shattered multiple records in its extended run but has now firmly positioned itself as the biggest blockbuster in Hindi cinema history. After completing over a month at the box office, Dhurandhar recently scripted another milestone by delivering the biggest 5th weekend ever for a Hindi film, collecting an impressive ₹33.25 crore net. With this, the film's total net collection has surged past 781 crore in just 33 days, putting it within striking distance of Pushpa 2's all-time Hindi net record. It will cross Pushpa 2's 812 crore net record over its 6th weekend to become the biggest Hindi grosser. Dhurandhar has set a new gold standard for solo-language releases. While other ₹1000-crore club entrants relied on pan-India, multi-language releases to increase their numbers, Ranveer Singh's espionage drama has achieved this gargantuan feat through its Hindi version only, making it a unique record holder in the history of the Indian box office. Director Aditya Dhar has once again proven his mettle in the action-thriller genre. After the massive success of Uri: The Surgical Strike, Dhar has scaled even greater heights with Dhurandhar. Below is a look at his top-performing directorial ventures: Dhurandhar (2025): ₹781.75 Cr+ (India Net - Ongoing) Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019): ₹244.14 Cr (India Net) With just two major releases, Aditya Dhar has become one of the most bankable directors in the country. His ability to blend realistic military/intelligence operations with high-octane commercial cinema has resonated deeply with the Naya Bharat audience. The frenzy surrounding the film isn't stopping anytime soon. The makers have already confirmed Dhurandhar: Part 2 (officially titled Dhurandhar 2: Revenge), which is slated for a grand release on March 19, 2026. However, the path to the box office won't be easy this time. Dhurandhar 2 is set for a massive box office collision with Yash's highly anticipated Pan-India film, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-ups. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   While Dhurandhar currently rules the charts, one cannot underestimate the box office might of Yash, who essentially redefined the Pan-India phenomenon. Yash's KGF: Chapter 2 (2022) holds the distinction of being the Highest Grossing Indian Film of the Year (HGOTY) for 2022, with a staggering Indian net collection of approximately ₹859.7 Crore and a worldwide gross of ₹ 1,215 crore. Even before the sequel, KGF: Chapter 1 had already set a benchmark as the first Kannada film to cross the ₹250 crore mark worldwide. Yash remains one of the few actors whose films have consistently challenged the dominance of the biggest Bollywood and Tollywood stars, making his upcoming return with Toxic a genuine threat to any record currently standing. Dhurandhar has received praise not just for its box office numbers but for its technical brilliance. Featuring an ensemble cast of Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal, the film gripped audiences despite its massive 214-minute (3 hours and 34 minutes) runtime. As the film continues its legendary run, it currently stands as the 4th highest domestic grosser of all time, sitting just behind Pushpa 2: The Rule, Baahubali 2, and KGF Chapter 2. With the sequel arriving in just a few months, the Dhurandhar mania is only expected to intensify.

The Raja Saab Paid Premieres: Prabhas' Horror Fantasy Set for Massive India Premieres on Jan 8; Ticket Prices and Timings Out

The Rebel Star mania is reaching a fever pitch as the countdown for The Raja Saab begins. In a move that showcases the makers' absolute confidence in the content, the production house has officially confirmed Paid Premieres across India on Thursday, January 8th, 2026, a day before its grand worldwide release. Billed as India's biggest horror-fantasy film, The Raja Saab is not just breaking genre norms but also setting new benchmarks in terms of premiere scale and pricing. According to the latest official updates, the paid premiere shows in India will commence from 06:00 PM onwards on January 8. In a move reflecting the film's Premium status and massive demand, ticket prices for these exclusive early shows are reportedly being pegged at ₹800. While the pricing has sparked conversations among trade circles, the advance booking trends from overseas markets suggest that fans are more than willing to pay a premium to catch their Vintage Darling back in a comical yet horrific avatar. Directed by Maruthi, The Raja Saab is a grand romantic horror-comedy and fantasy film that marks Prabhas' first foray into this genre. The plot revolves around a carefree young man, played by Prabhas, who inherits a haunted ancestral mansion. The primary antagonist of the film is the spirit of his grandfather, portrayed by Bollywood veteran Sanjay Dutt, who haunts the mansion. With a massive runtime of over 3 hours and Prabhas appearing in nearly 90% of the film, the project is being treated as a one man show. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The craze for the Rebel Star is evident in the overseas markets, where early pre-sales for The Raja Saab in North America have already surged past the dollar 350,000 (₹2.9 Cr) mark for the premiere shows alone. With over 1,045 shows already listed and more than 10,500 tickets sold, the film is witnessing a steady build-up ahead of its Sankranti release. Following this massive overseas momentum, the India advance bookings are expected to open with a Big Bang shortly, as fans across the country gear up for the January 8th premieres Producer TG Vishwa Prasad and Director Maruthi have promised a grand horror experience with top tier CGI work. While the first half is designed to cater to the vintage Darling persona of Prabhas for Telugu fans, the second half is reportedly tailored to appeal to the Hindi heartland and North Indian audiences who have a high appetite for large scale horror fantasy.
