Dhawan plays a tailor, while Sharma plays an embroiderer in the film who, as husband and wife, team to fulfill their dreams of becoming entrepreneurs. ## "Indian youth are dream-chasers and if we look at China, they are also the same. So, I feel our simple, feel-good love story of two aspiring entrepreneurs will connect with people in that country. I'm eager to see the reaction in China. Historically, they have loved uplifting stories about human emotions and rooted for underdogs to win the day. I'm hopeful they will love the theme of how self-reliance can aid people to achieve their goals", said producer Maneesh Sharma, according to Variety. ## "Sui Dhaaga: Made In India" is produced by Maneesh Sharma and Aditya Chopra under the banner of Yash Raj Films.

Exclusive: Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar Sells Over 100K Advance Tickets For The Opening Day

Mumbai, March 7 - Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor-fronted romantic-comedy Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, which is releasing tomorrow (March 8), is seeing a good response in the pre-booking which was the case with the recent Bollywood movies this year. ## The Luv Ranjan's directorial has sold over 100K tickets for the opening day and there are still some hours left for the first show to begin. The advance booking of TJMM started only three days before the release on March 5 which is proving to be a good move. Though the pre-booking for the movie is not high flying but good enough for a decent to good start at the box office. ## The advance booking of TJMM is the second best for a Bollywood movie in 2023 after Shah Rukh Khan-fronted "Pathaan" which sold over 1 million tickets for the opening day in advance booking. The other notable release this year, Kartik Aaryan's "Shehzada" sold approx. 52K tickets and Akshay Kumar's "Selfiee" sold approx. 20K advance tickets for the opening day. ## "Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar" is produced by T-Series and Luv Films while Yash Raj Films is the overseas distribution partner. The movie is expected to take an opening of over 10 crores which will be a good result. It also stars Dimple Kapadia, Boney Kapoor, and Anubhav Singh Bassi in key roles.## Stay tuned...

Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar Opening Day Box Office Expectations

Mumbai, March 7 - Director Luv Ranjan's first film in 4 years, romantic-comedy Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor is finally hitting theaters worldwide tomorrow (March 8), more than 3 years after it was first announced in 2019.## Ranjan's last directorial, "Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety" was a blockbuster so the expectations are high from TJMM which carries bigger star power. Though a lot has changed over the last few years, TJMM is seeing a better response in the advance booking than the previous few Bollywood movies this year, also than the SKTKS. ## Produced by T-Series and Luv Films, TJMM has sold approx. 84K tickets worth approx. 2.50 crores as of 7 PM on March 7 for the opening day. The advances for the first day are expected to finish over 100K tickets, the second biggest for a Bollywood movie in 2023. ## Looking at the advance booking response, TJMM is looking to take a double-digit start as the opening day could be somewhere around 10-13 crores net, which is a much better start than Ranjan's SKTKS which opened at 6.42 crores net and went to score approx. 109 crores lifetime net collection. ## TJMM is releasing on Wednesday, coinciding with Holi weekend. The Morning shows might see a slow start on the opening day due to the festival but the rest of the day will behave like a holiday. Last year, Akshay Kumar's "Bachchhan Paandey" opened at 13.25 crores on Holi, and TJMM is expected to open in a similar range. If received very well, there is an outside chance of going close to 14-15 crores, but that is a different thing as it is not looking to reach there as of now. ## The movie also stars Dimple Kapadia, Boney Kapoor, and Anubhav Singh Bassi in key roles.## Stay tuned...

Two Film Old Telugu Director Venkatesh Maha Makes Fun of Yash-Fronted All-Time Blockbuster 'KGF 2'

Hyderabad, March 6 - The Yash-fronted period action drama film KGF: Chapter 2 was the highest-grossing Indian movie of 2022 and grossed a whopping approx. 1210 crores worldwide. The Prashanth Neel's directorial was hailed as one of the finest ever commercial entertainers in Indian cinema by audiences. ## The all-time blockbuster success of "KGF 2" is not going well with some of the so-called filmmakers and the latest in the list is a Telugu director Venkatesh Maha. During a round table interview with other filmmakers – Nandini Reddy, Indraganti Mohana Krishna, Shiva Nirvana, and Vivek Athreya, the director-turned-actor stirred controversy by calling "KGF 2" a senseless and mindless film.## Venkatesh Maha, who directed "C/o Kancharapalem" and "Uma Maheswara Ugra Roopasya" not only criticized "KGF 2" but even also allegedly abused the character of Yash's Rocky Bhai. He said he feels absurd when the protagonist's mother wants him to get all the gold and become rich with the help of people in KGF by barely giving them anything. ## It is not that all are against the director as a lot of fans support him for expressing his point of view as a director, however, it is his way of expressing his opinion that has gone wrong. Venkatesh Maha criticized KGF 2 with very strange antics and also talked in a demeaning manner which is not going well with the fans of the Kannada superstar. ## The fans of Yash and Kannada cinema are going after Maha for talking about the film and characters in a demeaning manner. ## Looks like Director #VenkateshMaha Abusing KGF & Rocky Bhai’s characterization#KGFChapter2 pic.twitter.com/ZnaXkNa6am— Milagro Movies (@MilagroMovies) March 6, 2023 ## Stay tuned...
