Mumbai, July 21 - One of the busiest actresses in Bollywood, Kriti Sanon has reportedly landed another big film and is set to feature alongside Shahid Kapoor in producer Dinesh Vijan's next. ## It was recently reported that Shahid and Dinesh are teaming up for the first time for a unique love story and now, the makers have roped in Kriti to romance the "Kabir Singh" actor.

Ranbir Kapoor's 'Shamshera' Opening Day Box Office Prediction

Mumbai, July 21 - Ranbir Kapoor returns to the big screen after more than 4 years with Yash Raj Films' Shamshera. The Karan Malhotra-directed period action drama film will be hitting worldwide theaters tomorrow (July 22) in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, also in IMAX. ## Ranbir Kapoor was last seen in Rajkumar Hirani's biographical comedy-drama "Sanju", which was a huge blockbuster at the box office, so the expectations from his upcoming movie are high and should be. The advance booking of the same was opened on July 17 as there was a good buzz for the movie. ## The initial advance booking response for "Shamshera" was decent and at the same time, was better than most of this year's Bollywood movies. However, after that initial promise, the advance booking hasn't picked up as per the wish of the makers as the pre-sales collection of the movie is around 3.50 crores gross only. It might still reach 5 crores before the first show starts. ## The trade experts have been projecting the film to open around 20 crores, which is not looking to happen at this point in time. Taking the advance booking into the account, the movie is tracking to open around 11-12 crores net. However, looking at the subject of the movie which is promising to be a mass entertainer, which often leads to a good spot booking, the movie has a fair chance to take the opening of 15-16 crores. ## Ranbir's last film, "Sanju" opened to a huge 34+ crores, but the scenario was different at that time. This time around, the opening of 15+ crores for "Shamshera" will be considered good and if word of mouth is positive, then the opening weekend has a shot for 55+ crores. The trailer and other promos have left a positive impact on the audiences and this should lead to good footfalls in cinemas. ## In 2022, the biggest opening for a Bollywood movie belongs to Kartik Aaryan, Kiara Advani, and Tabu's "Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2", which opened to 14.11 crores net in May. "Shamshera" is clearly looking to challenge this record and if this happens, then YRF has a winner in its hands. The movie also stars Sanjay Dutt as the antagonist Shuddh Singh and Vaani Kapoor as the female lead among others. ## The story of Shamshera is set in the fictitious city of Kaza, where a warrior tribe is imprisoned, enslaved, and tortured by a ruthless authoritarian general Shudh Singh. This is the story of a man who became a slave, a slave who became a leader, and then a legend for his tribe. He relentlessly fights for his tribe's freedom and dignity. His name is Shamshera. The high-octane, adrenaline-pumping entertainer is set in the 1800s in the heartland of India.## Stay tuned...

Tom Cruise To Make Over $100 Million From 'Top Gun Maverick' Earnings

Los Angeles, July 20 - Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise is still, at the age of 60, one of the most bankable actors. He has just delivered the biggest blockbuster of his career in the form of Top Gun Maverick, which has already grossed over $1.24 billion at the worldwide box office. ## Tom Cruise is one of the Hollywood actors who take a share of his movies' profit. According to Variety, the "Mission Impossible" star will net $100 million or more from ticket sales of "Top Gun 2", his salary, and his eventual cut of home entertainment rentals and streaming revenue.## The same report further said quoting one studio executive that most Hollywood actors aren't worth the money they have been paid but when it comes to Tom Cruise and maybe Dwayne Johnson, they justify their salaries, and thus, the studios are happy to give them what they demand.## Dwayne Johnson, who will be seen headlining DCEU's "Black Adam", scheduled for October 21, 2022, release, has been paid a whopping $22.5 million to star in the movie. Tom Cruise's deal with production studios is unique. As per Variety, the actor commands a significant percentage of the movie's first-dollar gross. That means that Cruise gets box office bonuses before the studio even breaks even. ## Tom Cruise's next two films are "Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One & Part 2". He is taking a lower fee upfront for starring in both the movies, which is between $12M and $14M. But just like "Top Gun 2", he will share movies' profits and both the movies are expected to fetch him another massive sum in his bag. ## Stay tuned...

Ana de Armas Explains Why There's No Need For Female James Bond

Los Angeles, July 20 - Daniel Craig has bid adieu to the iconic James Bond character with the release of 2021's James Bond: No Time to Die, and the search for a new actor to play this role is still on. In this process, there have been discussions over a female to play James Bond in the near future if not immediately. ## Ana de Armas, who also starred in last year's "No Time to Die" as Paloma, a CIA agent assisting Bond, however, believes that there is no need for a female James Bond and she has explained her reasons for the same. Reportedly, the creators of the movie have been looking out for the opposite sex as a replacement for Daniel's Bond character.## Speaking to The Sun, the 34-year-old actress noted, "There's no need for a female Bond. There shouldn't be any need to steal someone else's character, you know, to take over". ## While talking about Bond's role who is depicted as a misogynist, the "Deep Water" star added, "This is a novel, and it leads into this James Bond world and this fantasy of that universe where he's at. What I would like is that the female roles in the Bond films, even though Bond will continue to be a man, are brought to life in a different way".## "Women are given a more substantial part and recognition. That's what I think is more interesting than flipping things", she explained.## Ana de Armas, meanwhile, can be seen in Russo Brothers' "The Gray Man". It also stars Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, Dhanush, and Julia Butters, among others in key roles. The movie is currently playing in theaters and will start streaming on Netflix on July 22. ## Stay tuned...

Superstar Yash Completes 14 Years In Kannada Cinema; Fans Celebrate The Milestone

Bengaluru, July 20 - Kannada superstar Yash, who has taken a giant step in becoming the next Pan India sensation, has completed 14 years in Kannada cinema. His journey so far has been nothing short of a roller coaster ride which is finally paying off. ## Yash made his debut in 2007 with "Jambada Hudugi" and also won the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor for his second film "Mogina Manasu". Since his debut, Yash has headlined 18 films, including the biggest of them "KGF: Chapter 2" recently released and made him a talk of the town. ## Earlier, it was "Rocky" (2008), which turned out to be the first major film that gave Yash much-deserved fame, and he never looked back since then. With "Rocky", he was slowly becoming a huge name in Kannada cinema, and later, his 2014 release "Mr. And Mrs. Ramachari" became one of the highest-grossing Kannada releases and earned Yash his first Filmfare Award for Best Actor.## Over the years, Yash had dreamed of taking Kannada cinema to the global front and giving its own identity rather than remaining the subsidiary of South cinema. This moment came when the first "KGF" was released in 2018, which broke all the records at the box office and spread the allure of Rocky Bhai with his super fandom. ## And then came "KGF Chapter 2", which emerged as one of the most popular Indian films of 2022 with an 8.5 rating on IMDb. The film collected Rs 430 crore in the Hindi version alone and after "Baahubali: The Conclusion", it is the most successful Hindi film of all time. Overall, the movie grossed over 1200 crores worldwide, becoming the third highest-grossing Indian film of all time. ## Yash couldn't have asked for a better way of celebrating his 14 years in cinema than by delivering one of the biggest blockbusters in Indian cinema. His fans, who have stood rock solid behind the superstar throughout his journey, are celebrating the same with a video that explained Yash's journey in the cinema industry.## Have a look at some of the tweets regarding the celebrations of 14 years of Yash in cinema - ## He alone is the architect of what he is,his glaring image today is the reflection of his sweat from yesterday's hardwork,his journey is the industry's revolution & his name is the 𝐄𝐦𝐛π₯𝐞𝐦 𝐨𝐟 π’πšπ§ππšπ₯𝐰𝐨𝐨𝐝❀@TheNameIsYash " 14 YEARS OF YASHISM "#YashBOSS #Yash19 pic.twitter.com/lxdymOoCnL— Yash Trend'sβ„’ (@YashTrends) July 17, 2022 ## #14YearsOfYashism He's indeed the small hand of clock for KFI & Indian Cinema!Tribute to the man who surpassed everyone's expectations,who is the emblem of Sandalwood,the one who introduced me and many north Indian fans like me to Sandalwood!TRIBUTE TO #YashBOSS πŸ”₯#KGF2 pic.twitter.com/L9wxaHDrHe— Prakriti Shukla//π’΄π’Άπ“ˆπ’½'π“ˆ π”ˆπ”© π”‡π”¬π”―π”žπ”‘π”¬ (@_PrakS_16) July 17, 2022 ## I've seen u from my childhood ❀️You are such an inspiration my man....The way u are here without any godfather is amazing.....Congo for completing 14 yrsU made our kannada industry proud....πŸ₯Ίβ€οΈU deserve all the love and support ಸದಾ ನಗುಀಿರು.....❀️#14YearsOfYashism #YashBOSS pic.twitter.com/JfirsomtV8— .❀️ (@SrkzHarinii) July 17, 2022 ## This scene perfectly Resembles the Dream of Naveen Kumar Gowda,Rocking star Yash πŸ‘‘ Had just 300 RS in his Pocket when he Reached Bengalore, Now he is the only KFI actor with 250CR, 500CR, 1000CR Grosser movies.Self made Brand,#14YearsOfYashism #YashBOSS pic.twitter.com/ReKzj4SwJH— 24 Crafts (@24Crafts707025) July 18, 2022 ## Stay tuned...
