Ramayana 3D Promo: Ranbir Kapoor's epic reported to attach with Avatar: Fire and Ash

The wait seems to be finally over for fans of Indian cinema as reports suggest that the much-anticipated promo of Nitesh Tiwari's magnum opus, Ramayana, is set to be attached to the theatrical prints of James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire and Ash. In a massive strategic move to position the film as a global visual spectacle, makers have optimized the exclusive asset for a fully immersive 3D experience, ensuring that audiences get their first glimpse of Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, and Yash as Ravana on the biggest screens possible starting December 19, 2025. This early reveal, arriving well ahead of its Diwali 2026 slate, underlines the makers' confidence in the film's VFX standards matching international benchmarks. In contrast to the locked and loaded Ramayana update, the buzz around SS Rajamouli's next with Mahesh Babu seems to be nothing more than fan-fueled speculation. Trade circles had whispered that a glimpse of the adventure, titled Varanasi, might be attached to Avatar, but this seems highly unlikely given that the makers have already played their biggest cards. The team previously hosted a grand Globe Trotter event where they officially unveiled the title and introduced the entire primary cast—revealing Mahesh Babu as Rudhra, Priyanka Chopra as the female lead, and Prithviraj Sukumaran as the antagonist. With the core characters and the film's premise already established at that event, reports of a new promo feels redundant, and sources indicate the team is not looking to drop any fresh assets this week. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) If the visual spectacle wasn't enough, the auditory experience is set to be historic. Confirmed reports indicate that the Ramayana promo will feature the first chords of a legendary collaboration between Hans Zimmer and A.R.Rahman.The duo has reportedly crafted a score that blends ancient Vedic sounds with orchestral grandeur, setting the perfect stage for the epic.The attachment of this promo also solidifies the makers' long-term dominance over the box office. By releasing this asset nearly a year in advance, Prime Focus Studios is effectively marking its territory for the next two festive seasons. The saga is officially locked as a two-part cinematic event, with Part 1 arriving in Diwali 2026 and the concluding chapter slated for Diwali 2027. This confident rollout strategy mirrors global franchises like Dune, promising audiences that the wait—starting with this weekend's 3D teaser will be worth every second.

Dhurandhar Unleashed: Ranveer Singh's actioner becomes the 5th Indian film of 2025 to breach the 500 Cr mark

The year 2025 has officially become a landmark year for Indian cinema, defined by a series of box office juggernauts that have shattered linguistic and genre barriers. What began with the divine roar of Rishab Shetty's Kantara Chapter 1 has now evolved into a high-stakes battle for supremacy. The latest entrant to this elite list is Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar, which has stormed past the ₹500 crore mark in just 10 days. Unlike the earlier blockbusters that have largely concluded their runs, Dhurandhar is currently in the middle of a box office rampage, breathing fresh life into theaters and challenging the benchmarks set by its predecessors. A closer look at the leaderboard reveals a fascinating contrast in trajectory. While Kantara Chapter 1 and Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava sit comfortably at the top with colossal lifetime grosses crossing ₹800 crores, the dynamics in the ₹500 crore bracket are shifting rapidly. Dhurandhar has already eclipsed the lifetime collection of Coolie and is now breathing down the neck of the romantic musical Saiyaara. What makes this feat remarkable is the speed; while its competitors took weeks to consolidate these numbers, Dhurandhar has achieved this dominance in merely a week and a half, signaling that its final landing spot could be much higher up the ladder. The trade is buzzing with anticipation as Dhurandhar continues its unstoppable theatrical run with strong holdover audiences. It serves as the perfect counter-narrative to the mythological and historical grandeur of the year's top two hits, proving that a gritty, high-octane spy thriller can deliver equally massive numbers. As it heads into its second week with virtually no slowing down, the industry isn't just celebrating its entry into the ₹500 crore club, but actively calculating just how far this Ranveer Singh starrer will go in chasing down the year's biggest records.

Sources close to the production house reveal that discussions are currently in the advanced stages.While Jr NTR was already introduced into the Spy Universe as the anti-hero/Indian agent in the Hrithik Roshan starrer War 2 (released in August 2025), his journey was initially expected to continue in a standalone spin-off titled Agent Vikram. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) However, following the mixed box-office reception of War 2 and the reported shelving of the standalone project, Aditya Chopra has seemingly reworked the blueprint The idea is to now integrate Jr NTR's character directly into the universe's flagship franchise, Pathaan, to maximize the impact of his screen presence alongside King Khan. Pathaan 2 is currently in the advanced stages of pre-production, with the script reportedly locked earlier this year. The film is being conceptualized as a pivotal chapter that will eventually set the stage for the Spy Universe's Endgame. While specifics regarding the casting remain under wraps, insiders suggest that Jr NTR's inclusion will be far more substantial than a mere cameo. He is rumored to play a parallel lead or a formidable antagonist force who directly challenges Pathaan. If things go as planned, the shoot is expected to commence in early 2026, targeting a grand release in 2027. As of now, there is no official confirmation from YRF or the actors' teams. However, the buzz is undeniably strong, and given Aditya Chopra's history of casting surprises (like Salman in Pathaan and SRK in Tiger 3), this unlimited madness might just be a signature away from reality.

Dhurandhar enters the Rs 300 Crore Club in style; Emerges as the highest earner of 2025 at the 10 day mark beating Chhaava and Saiyaara

Dhurandhar has officially stormed past the triple-century mark, becoming the third film of 2025 to achieve this milestone while setting a new benchmark for 10-day collections.The box office momentum for Dhurandhar shows no signs of slowing down. The action-entertainer has officially crossed the coveted Rs 300 crore milestone at the Indian box office. In a massive feat, the film achieved this figure on its tenth day of release. Dhurandhar currently stands at a staggering Rs 351.75 crore (India Net) after 10 days. This makes it the fastest pacer of the year so far, surpassing the trend set by previous 2025 blockbusters. 2025 has proven to be a lucrative year for the industry with three films already crossing the Rs 300 crore barrier. However, the speed at which Dhurandhar has achieved this feat sets it apart. While Chhaava also managed to storm into the coveted club by its tenth day, Saiyaara took a steadier route, hitting the milestone on its 17th day. In terms of sheer momentum, Dhurandhar has taken a decisive lead, recording the highest volume of collections within the first ten days compared to its predecessors.While all three films have successfully cemented their place in the prestigious club, the speed at which they achieved the milestone highlights the difference in their initial momentum. Here is a look at how many days each blockbuster took to breach the ₹ 300 crore mark at the Indian Box Office: Dhurandhar:Day 10( ₹ 351.75 Cr) Chhaava:Day 10 (₹ 326.75 Cr) Saiyaara:Day 17 (₹ 302.1 Cr) Given the glowing word of mouth and the rock-solid daily momentum, Dhurandhar is on smooth sailing to emerge as the biggest grosser of the year. The film is currently trending significantly better than the year's previous giants, and with no signs of slowing down, it is poised to comfortably surpass the lifetime benchmarks set by Chhaava and Saiyaara. In fact, Dhurandhar has already crossed the entire lifetime domestic net collection of Saiyaara in just ten days, signaling that a historic run is currently unfolding. The primary target now is the year's biggest hit, Chhaava. The historical drama set a massive precedent with an All-Time Blockbuster verdict, wrapping up its theatrical run with an India Net collection of Rs 601.54 crore and a domestic gross of Rs 716.91 crore. While the film accumulated a humongous Rs 807.91 crore worldwide—aided by Rs 91 crore from overseas—Dhurandhar's current pace suggests it will challenge these numbers much sooner than expected. Meanwhile, Saiyaara remains a case study for profitability. Made on a modest budget of Rs 45 crore, it became an All-Time Blockbuster with a lifetime India Net of Rs 329.2 crore—a figure Dhurandhar has already demolished. While Saiyaara put up a stiff fight overseas with Rs 171.5 crore to reach a worldwide gross of Rs 569.75 crore, Dhurandhar is rewriting the domestic records with ease. With the Rs 350 crore mark already dusted, the trade is now confident that the film will not just breach the Rs 600 crore club established by Chhaava, but potentially set a new all-time record for the industry.

The success of Dhurandhar is being hailed as a major comeback for the actor. While his 2023 film Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani was a clean hit that brought him back into the winner's circle, Dhurandhar has re-established him as an undisputed box office force, capable of opening big and sustaining monstrously on sheer star power. Here's a look at Ranveer Singh's journey of eight blockbusters that have entered the ₹100 crore club: 1.Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela (2013): This was the film that started it all.

The historical epic was a critical and commercial triumph, netting an impressive ₹184.30 Cr despite a major box office clash. 3.Padmaavat (2018): In their hat-trick collaboration, Ranveer took a massive risk by playing the menacing antagonist Alauddin Khilji. The gamble paid off spectacularly, as the film became his first to enter the ₹300 crore club, earning a colossal ₹302.15 Cr nett amidst huge controversy. 4.Simmba (2018): Proving his versatility, Ranveer teamed up with hit-machine Rohit Shetty for this masala entertainer. As the quirky cop Sangram Bhalerao, he won hearts and the box office, with the film roaring to a massive ₹240.30 Cr and becoming a part of Shetty's Cop Universe. 5.Gully Boy (2019): Directed by Zoya Akhtar, this critically acclaimed film was a different kind of blockbuster. Ranveer's heartfelt portrayal of a street rapper from Mumbai resonated globally, earning ₹139.63 Cr in India and becoming the country's official entry for the Oscars. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) 6.83 (2021): Despite its commercial performance being impacted by the pandemic, this Kabir Khan directorial was hailed for its emotional depth and Ranveer's uncanny portrayal of legendary cricketer Kapil Dev. The film crossed the milestone, netting ₹107.31 Cr, and remains one of his most acclaimed performances. 7.Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani (2023): Marking his collaboration with Karan Johar, this vibrant romantic-comedy was a much-needed hit.

This Aditya Dhar directorial is a certified smash hit, crossing ₹153.25 Cr in just five days.

Directed by Aditya Dhar, the film has displayed a level of dominance rarely seen in recent times. While the opening weekend numbers were expectedly huge, it is the film's extraordinary hold during the weekdays that has trade analysts buzzing. The trends from Monday through Wednesday indicate that the content has resonated wholeheartedly with mass audiences, preventing the usual weekday crash seen with front-loaded blockbusters. The film's performance is not limited to the domestic market; it is firing on all cylinders globally. As of Day 6, Dhurandhar has amassed a massive Worldwide Collection of ₹ 274.25 Cr, driven by a strong Overseas Collection of ₹ 58 Cr.

Dhurandhar:North America Box Office; becomes Ranveer Singh's 8th film to enter USD 3 Million Club; Joins Shah Rukh Khan in ELITE league

Ranveer Singh is officially cementing his status as a global superstar, proving that his box office pull extends far beyond the Indian domestic market. His latest espionage thriller, Dhurandhar, has unleashed a storm in North America (USA + Canada). According to the latest trade reports, the Aditya Dhar directorial has successfully crossed the prestigious dollar 3 Million gross mark. With this massive achievement, Ranveer Singh has secured the second spot among all Indian actors for the highest number of dollar 3M+ grossers in the region, trailing only behind the undisputed King of Overseas, Shah Rukh Khan. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The milestone is significant because it highlights Ranveer's incredible consistency in the West over the last decade. Dhurandhar is now Ranveer's eighth film to breach the dollar 3 Million barrier in North America. This feat puts him in a league of his own among his contemporaries. The only actor ahead of him is Shah Rukh Khan, who sits comfortably at the top with a staggering thirteen films that have crossed this benchmark. For Ranveer to be the closest competitor to SRK speaks volumes about his brand value and the loyalty of the diaspora audience. List of Ranveer Singh's USD 3 Million Grossers in North America: Padmaavat – USD 12.17 Million Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani – USD 10.60 Million Bajirao Mastani – USD 6.56 Million Gully Boy – USD 5.56 Million Simmba – USD 5.07 Million 83 – USD 4.20 Million Dil Dhadakne Do – USD 3.06 Million Dhurandhar – USD 3.00 Million+ (Running) Note: The above figures reflect reported North American box office gross. Totals are approximate and may vary slightly across different trade sources. With Dhurandhar still running successfully in theaters and the second weekend approaching, trade analysts are closely monitoring where the film will land. Having already surpassed the dollar 3 Million mark in its extended first week, the film is expected to challenge the lifetime numbers of Dil Dhadakne Do and potentially 83 soon. Despite the film facing a ban in the Gulf region, its performance in North America and India (where it has crossed ₹200 Crores) proves that good content will always find its audience.

In a move similar to Baahubali and KGF, director Aditya Dhar has reportedly shot both Part 1 and Part 2 simultaneously. This ambitious decision stems from a vision that has been in the works for nearly a decade.Reports indicate that Dhar has been researching this story for 8–9 years, ensuring every detail of the espionage network feels authentic.

Year Ender 2025:The year of Sequels

Sequel Report 2025 Filmmakers doubled down on nostalgia this year, bringing back iconic characters and expanding beloved universes. From the high-octane face-off in War 2 to the supernatural hysteria of Stree 2, the box office was dominated by the Part 2 phenomenon. However, the results were a mixed bag of hits and shocking disasters, proving that a franchise tag alone is no longer a guarantee of success. As we wrap up the year, here is the verified collection report and verdict of the 10 sequels of 2025. War 2 Director Ayan Mukerji Cast Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR, Kiara Advani Hindi Net ₹ 236.55 Cr WW Gross ₹ 364.35 Cr Budget ₹ 400 Cr Verdict Flop A monumental disappointment. Despite the massive hype surrounding the Hrithik vs. Jr NTR face-off, the film collapsed due to negative word-of-mouth and a weak screenplay. With a colossal budget of ₹400 Cr, the collections are disastrous, failing to even cross the lifetime figures of its 2019 predecessor. It proves that mounting a project on scale alone cannot save a film if the content doesn't connect. Housefull 5 Director Tarun Mansukhani Cast Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan Hindi Net ₹ 183.3 Cr WW Gross ₹ 288.58 Cr Budget ₹ 250 Cr Verdict Average A classic case of the budget outgrowing the box office potential. While the cruise ship grandeur pushed the cost to an astronomical ₹250 Cr, the collections (₹183.3 Cr Net) failed to match up, falling significantly short of Housefull 4's ₹210 Cr benchmark. Despite decent family footfalls during the holidays, the massive mounting turned a potential money-spinner into a financial burden, signaling clear franchise fatigue. Jolly LLB 3 Director Subhash Kapoor Cast Akshay Kumar, Arshad Warsi, Huma Qureshi Hindi Net ₹ 116.75 Cr WW Gross ₹ 170.8 Cr Budget ₹ 120 Cr Verdict Success A classic example of diminishing ROI. While the much-hyped face-off between Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi helped the film match the net collections of Jolly LLB 2 (₹117 Cr), the economics went for a toss. With the budget skyrocketing 4x from ₹30 Cr to ₹120 Cr, what was once a highly profitable franchise has been reduced to just a Success. It proves that while the audience base remained intact, the massive cost escalation ate into the profit margins. Raid 2 Director Raj Kumar Gupta Cast Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, Vaani Kapoor Hindi Net ₹ 173.05 Cr WW Gross ₹ 237 Cr Budget ₹ 120 Cr Verdict Hit Bigger numbers, but smaller margins. While Raid 2 saw a healthy jump in collections (₹173 Cr vs the prequel's ₹103 Cr), it couldn't match the massive profitability of the first part. Raid was a 'Super-Hit' because it earned 3x its lean ₹35 Cr budget. The sequel, burdened by a heavy ₹120 Cr cost, settles for a Hit verdict. It was a commercial success, but not the money-spinner the original was relative to investment. Sitaare Zameen Par Director R.S. Prasanna Cast Aamir Khan, Genelia Deshmukh Hindi Net ₹ 167.3 Cr WW Gross ₹ 267.34 Cr Budget ₹ 122 Cr Verdict Hit A case of High Revenue, Lower ROI. While Sitaare Zameen Par clocked an impressive ₹167.3 Cr (nearly 2.6x the prequel's lifetime), the economics tell a different story. With the budget escalating 10x from ₹12 Cr to ₹122 Cr, the massive profitability of the original is missing. However, given the genre and Aamir's recent track record, crossing ₹267 Cr worldwide makes it a respectable Hit, even if it lacks the Super-Hit status of its low-budget predecessor. De De Pyaar De 2 Director Anshul Sharma Cast Ajay Devgn, R. Madhavan, Rakul Preet Singh Hindi Net ₹ 74 Cr WW Gross ₹ 111.5 Cr Budget ₹ 150 Cr Verdict Below Average A shocking misfire. Sequels are expected to take the franchise forward, but De De Pyaar De 2 took a massive step back. Not only did the collections nosedive from ₹104 Cr (Part 1) to just ₹74 Cr, but the budget ballooned to ₹135 Cr, making theatrical recovery impossible. Son of Sardaar 2 Director Vijay Kumar Arora Cast Ajay Devgn, Mrunal Thakur, Sanjay Dutt Hindi Net ₹ 46.82 Cr WW Gross ₹ 65.75 Cr Budget ₹ 130 Cr Verdict Flop A box office catastrophe. The franchise completely collapsed with this installment. While the original was a Super-Hit with ₹105 Cr Net on a lean ₹40 Cr budget, the sequel saw the budget triple to ₹130 Cr while collections crashed to less than half (₹46.82 Cr). It stands as one of the biggest loss-makers of the year, proving that a 13-year gap is too long to sustain brand recall without strong content. Baaghi 4 Director A. Harsha Cast Tiger Shroff, Sara Ali Khan Hindi Net ₹ 52.1 Cr WW Gross ₹ 77 Cr Budget ₹ 80 Cr Verdict Flop The franchise has officially hit rock bottom. While Baaghi 3 managed ₹96.5 Cr even amidst the onset of the pandemic, Baaghi 4 saw collections crash by nearly 50% to just ₹52.1 Cr. Even with a reduced budget of ₹80 Cr, the film failed to recover its costs theatrically. The repetitive action formula has been completely rejected by the audience. Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 Director Anukalp Goswami Cast Kapil Sharma, Warina Hussain,Tridha Choudhary, Ayesha Khan Hindi Net ₹ 7.20 Cr(As of day 3) WW Gross NA Budget ₹30 Cr Verdict NA Kapil Sharma's return to the big screen witnessed some respite over the weekend. After a slow start, the film saw positive growth on Sunday (₹ 2.85 Cr), taking its 3-day total to ₹ 7.20 Cr. While family audiences stepped out, the numbers still pale in comparison to the record-breaking debut of the first part. The film has gathered some momentum, but it now faces the crucial Monday test to see if it can sustain its run and challenge the lifetime collections of its prequel. Kesari Chapter 2 Director Karan Singh Tyagi Cast Akshay Kumar, Ananya Panday Hindi Net ₹ 92.73 Cr WW Gross ₹ 145 Cr Budget ₹ 150 Cr Verdict Average A failed attempt to capitalize on patriotism. While the original Kesari was a Hit earning ₹155.70 Cr Net on a controlled ₹100 Cr budget, the sequel stumbled significantly. With the production cost escalating to ₹150 Cr, the collections dropped by over 40% (₹92.73 Cr Net). Despite recovering ₹34.25 Cr from overseas markets, the film could not overcome its high budget, ending as a major commercial disappointment. Masti 4 Director Milap Zaveri Cast Vivek Oberoi, Aftab Shivdasani, Riteish Deshmukh Hindi Net ₹ 14.9 Cr WW Gross ₹ 19.25 Cr Budget ₹ 40 Cr Verdict Flop The franchise remains stuck in a rut. Masti 4 has virtually mirrored the disastrous performance of its prequel, Great Grand Masti (₹13.72 Cr). With collections stagnating around the ₹15 Cr mark against a ₹40 Cr budget, it confirms that the adult-comedy genre in this format has lost its theatrical appeal. It marks a second consecutive failure for the once-popular series.

Upcoming Films of Ranveer Singh Post Dhurandhar's Mega Success

Mumbai, December 15 - Ranveer Singh has entered the big league of Bollywood stars with Dhurandhar, which has turned the tide for him in a big way. The actor has been seeking big success for a long time, and his moment finally came when Aditya Dhar's directorial hit the big screen a week ago amid a thunderous response. Dhurandhar has stunned the trade with its extraordinary performance, already grossing over 500 crores worldwide in just 10 days. The spy actioner has become a cultural phenomenon. It is hard to predict where the film will end, but the current trajectory suggests it will become the highest-grossing Indian film of the year, beating Kantara Chapter 1's 850+ crore gross. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) With Dhurandhar delivering the much-needed big success for Ranveer, the question now is what is next for the actor? Well, there is Dhurandhar Part 2, which is already shot and will hit the big screens on March 19, 2026. The buzz for this is sky high, and the trade is already anticipating it to become one of the biggest blockbusters of 2026, which promises to be the best year for Indian cinema ever. Dhurandhar 2 emerged as an unexpected entry in Ranveer's line, as it was originally planned as a one-part film before the makers split it into two parts due to its long runtime. Apart from the spy actioner, Ranveer got a wild ride ahead in the next couple of years, and it will begin with Farhan Akhtar's Don 3. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) It has been quite a time since the reboot of the iconic franchise was announced, with Ranveer coming on board to play the titular character, replacing superstar Shah Rukh Khan. There were doubts about whether Simmba star could pull this iconic Don character off, but the mega success of Dhurandhar has blown away all those doubts and has made Don 3 one of the most anticipated upcoming films. The shoot of Don 3 is expected to kick off in January 2026, for grand worldwide release in late 2026 or 2027. After this, Ranveer will step into another uncharted territory of the Zombie world. While the official announcement of the film is yet to be made, reliable reports have confirmed that the actor is teaming up with director Jai Mehta for a Zombie film, titled Pralay. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Zombie thriller is one of the genres which has been explored much in Indian cinema, and Ranveer Singh is expected to bring his own signature energy in this. It is said that the film revolves around a man trying to protect his family as Mumbai turns into a zombie wasteland. It is expected to be a VFX-heavy and undoubtedly one of the most exciting ones to watch out for. Currently, Ranveer has these aforementioned three films in his pipeline. But according to a recent report, the actor has also discussed a mythological film with Aditya Dhar, which is likely to be their next collaboration after Dhurandhar 2. However, there are not many details available yet regarding this biggie, but it is certain to happen soon. Stay tuned...

Dhurandhar Box Office (Worldwide): Aditya Dhar's Spy Actioner Storms To 525+ Crore After Sensational Second Weekend

Mumbai, December 14 - Director Aditya Dhar's spy actioner Dhurandhar has surpassed 500 crores at the worldwide box office, becoming the third Bollywood film after Saiyaara and Chhaava, and fifth Indian film, including Kantara Chapter 1 and Coolie, of 2025 to achieve the feat. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The Ranveer Singh-fronted blockbuster entered the 500 crores club in 10 days, after the sensational second weekend, in which the movie grossed over 200 crores worldwide. The total domestic gross of the movie stands at around 420 crores, while the overseas collection is 120 crores, for 540+ crores worldwide cume in 10 days. Even though the film had an excellent first week, the second weekend particularly proved to be a record-shattering one in which it swept daily records for Hindi films on all three days - from record second Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and of course, the second weekend, beating Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2 on every front. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The overseas box office performance of Dhurandhar has surprisingly been excellent, driven by North America, where it has grossed over 70 crores in 10 days so far. Given the current trend, which is growing with each passing day, Dhurandhar may finish the year as the biggest Indian overseas as well as the worldwide grosser. Dhurandhar, which faced capacity issues during the second weekend, is now in a position to break more daily records in the coming days. The advances for the second Monday are excellent, looking at another massive day at the domestic box office. Stay tuned...

Tere Ishk Mein Box Office: Becomes Dhanush's Highest-Grossing Film, Beating Raayan

Mumbai, December 14 - Tamil star Dhanush has achieved a major milestone as his Bollywood film Tere Ishk Mein has become his highest-grosser, surpassing the lifetime box office performance of Raayan (154 crores) in 16 days. Directed by Anand L Rai, Tere Ishk Mein commenced the third weekend with decent hold on Friday, followed by a jump on Saturday to collect approximately 2 crores gross (1.65 crore net) domestically. Heading to the 3rd Sunday, the film minted 155 crores worldwide, including 132.50 crores in India in 16 days. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) After the solid opening week, Tere Ishk Mein encountered Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar, which has stolen all the limelight with a sensational box office performance. The Dhurandhar wave affected TIK badly as the latter witnessed a harsh 70% drop in the second week to score around 25+ crores net (30 crores gross). However, it wasn't all doom and gloom for TIK as it still managed to weather the Dhurandhar storm, due to the strong word of mouth. While the film did witness a sharp drop in its second week due to the arrival and dominance of Dhurandhar, its early gains proved decisive and ultimately took the film past the 150 crore mark at the end of week two. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) While the full potential of Tere Ishk Mein may have been cut short by Dhurandhar, it proved to be a remarkable success for Dhanush. TIK has delivered Dhanush his biggest success in the Hindi belt, expanding his box office footprint beyond his traditional strongholds in the South, particularly the Tamil market. Stay tuned...
