Superstar Salman Khan In Talks To Headline Director Atlee's Next After Allu Arjun Back Out: Report

Mumbai, June 17 - Over the last many months, the Telugu film industry has been buzzing with the potential collaboration between superstar Allu Arjun and blockbuster director Atlee. The project was almost finalized and was supposed to go on floors by the end of this year, but now, there is a disappointing update on the same. ## According to the report by Telugu 360, Allu Arjun's film with Atlee has been shelved after the director's huge remuneration demand which shocked the producers. However, another report claimed that the project fell through simply because it did not align with the actor and director's preferences. ## After Allu Arjun dropped the movie, Atlee is believed to have approached Bollywood superstar Salman Khan to headline and Telugu 360 reported that the superstar has given his nod and the movie will be announced soon. Sun Pictures will reportedly be producing the film which is expected to go on floors in the first quarter of 2025. ## Salman Khan, meanwhile, has started shooting for director AR Murugadoss' action drama Sikandar which has Rashmika Mandanna as the female lead. Sajid Nadiadwala is bankrolling this big-budget entertainer which will be released on Eid 2025. Salman Khan also has YRF's Tiger vs Pathaan in the pipeline. ## Stay tuned...

Box Office: 'Chandu Champion' First Sunday/Third Day Early Estimates

Mumbai, June 16 - Kartik Aaryan's Chandu Champion scores another much-needed growth on its first Sunday to take the opening weekend past 20 crores net mark which can be seen as some sort of recovery after the slow start, however, the overall collection still below expectations. ## After scoring a jump close to 50% on Saturday, the biographical sports drama witnesses another around 40% jump on Sunday for an estimated 9.75-10.25 crores net, pushing opening weekend to around 21.75 crores. There is a holiday tomorrow due to Bakrid so a hold is expected. ## The positive word of mouth has helped Chandu Champion to recover its lost ground to some extent, however, the movie still needs to perform very well beyond the weekend. The good thing is that the movie has momentum after back-to-back good jumps so it can manage good hold throughout the week. ## The next big release is Prabhas-fronted Kalki 2898 AD on June 27, so Chandu Champion has one more week to make the most of it, however, there is a holdover movie, Munjya is giving tough competition to it with solid trending at the box office. ## Stay tuned...

Akshay Kumar's 'Welcome 3' Release Postponed To 2025: Report

Mumbai, June 16 - Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar's comedy entertainer Welcome To The Jungle is set to miss Christmas 2024 weekend after it has reportedly been postponed to 2025. The movie is directed by Ahmed Khan and produced by Firoz Nadiadwala. ## According to the report by Hindustan Times, Welcome 3 has been delayed as it has still multiple shooting schedules remaining, additionally, significant VFX work will be required after principal photography concludes which makes it hard to meet its Christmas weekend release. ## Welcome 3 is scheduled to release on December 20, alongside Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par and the Hollywood movie, Mufasa: The Lion King. As the Akshay Kumar-led entertainer is likely to be pushed back to 2025, Sitaare Zameen Par remains the only major Bollywood movie to come out on Christmas 2024. ## Akshay Kumar returns to the Welcome franchise after missing out on the second film. The actor headlined the original film of the franchise back in 2007 and it was a big box office success. The upcoming movie also features Raveena Tandon, Jacqueline Fernandez, Disha Patani, Arshad Warsi, Paresh Rawal, Lara Dutta, and others. ## Stay tuned...

Box Office: 'Chandu Champion' Second Day/First Saturday Early Estimates

Mumbai, June 15 - After the low start, Kartik Aaryan-fronted Chandu Champion shows a much-needed growth of around 40% on its second day which is a good recovery but the overall collection is still not big enough to cover the lost ground. ## Kabir Khan's directorial benefits from positive word-of-mouth as it collects around 6.50-7 crores net on its first Saturday, as per early estimates. Ideally, this should have been the opening day figure to set the tone for a good opening weekend but that is not the case. ## Chandu Champion's total collection after 2 days is around 11.50 crores. It can still manage to score a decent weekend if it can see a similar or better jump on Sunday which is very much possible given Monday is a holiday. The 3-day opening weekend is heading for 19-20+ crores while the extended weekend could be around 25+ crores. ## The positive word of mouth is clearly showing its effect but the real test for the movie will begin after Monday Bakrid holiday. The 100 crores mark looks a far cry at this moment but the movie needs to hold firmly beyond the weekend to even stand a chance to come closer to this mark.## Stay tuned...

Director Anees Bazmee Reacts On 'Singham Again' and 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3' Clash

Mumbai, June 15 - Director Anees Bazmee scored a big box office success with Kartik Aayran-fronted horror-comedy Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 in 2022 and they later announced the next film in the franchise for which the shoot has been wrapped up. Tripti Dimri replaced Kiara Advani to play the female lead. ## The makers locked the Diwali 2024 release for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, however, it won't be a solo release as director Rohit Shetty has also locked the date for his highly-anticipated cop action drama Singham Again, starring Ajay Devgn in the title role. ## The box office clash between two hugely popular franchises has become a hot topic on social media and director Bazmee finally reacted on the same. During a recent interaction with Hindustan Times (via Firstpost), Bazmee shared his thoughts on this much-awaited box office battle. ## "Clashes are never a good idea. We had announced our release date for BB 3 a year in advance. I don't what to do now. All films get affected when there is a clash, there is definitely a loss in the process. And, it is not about showing confidence in your product. Every director, actor, and writer speaks confidently about their films", the filmmaker said. ## Speaking further about the possibility of change in the release plans, Bazmee added, "We haven't thought of it yet as we had decided the film's release date in advance. Ajay is a good friend and these clashes are not in our control". ## Stay tuned...

Box Office: Chandu Champion Opening Day Early Estimates

Mumbai, June 14 - Kartik Aaryan-fronted biographical sports drama Chandu Champion has taken a slow start at the domestic box office as the movie couldn't generate much pre-release excitement among the moviegoers. ## The movie had low pre-sales which confirmed a low opening but there were hopes that things would improve with positive word-of-mouth which wasn't the case at least on the first day as early estimates suggest opening in around 4.50-5 crores net. The makers did try to lure the audience by keeping the ticket prices low for the first day only but it had less impact. ## The good thing for the movie is that the reception is seemingly positive among the general audiences so box office prospects may improve over the weekend which is a must. The movie will also enjoy the holiday on account of Bakrid on Monday. ## Chandu Champion will be aiming to score around 20 crores net 3-day opening weekend and around 25 crores extended weekend which will still be below expectations. ## Stay tuned...

Box Office: 'Munjya' Score Fantastic First Week

Mumbai, June 13 - Producer Dinesh Vijan's horror-comedy Munjya ends the opening week with a fantastic collection of over 35 crores net after the miraculous trend during the weekdays with almost no drop from Monday - Thursday. ## The Aditya Sarpotdar's directorial movie cleared the 35 crores mark after scoring an estimated 3.75-4 crores net on its first Thursday. Interestingly, or rather incredibly, the collection of Munjya remained in the range of the 4 crores mark which indicates a long run for the movie at the domestic box office. ## The opening week collection of Munjya is the 7th biggest first week total for a Bollywood movie of 2024. It is expected to remain strong in the second week despite the arrival of Kartik Aaryan's Chandu Champion and will aim to reach 50 crores mark by the second weekend itself. ## Munjya is the 4th movie in Maddock Films' horror-comedy universe after Stree, Roohi, and Bhediya and is currently the third highest-grosser in the series. The movie has a good chance of beating Bhediya in the long run to become the second-biggest film in the series after Stree. ## Stay tuned...

Box Office: Munjya Second Day/First Saturday Early Estimates

Mumbai, June 8 - Maddock Films' production, Munjya is proving all the projections wrong with excellent trends at the box office. The movie opened above expectations on the opening day with approximately 4 crores net and is showing over 60% jump on the second day. ## It was anticipated that the growth on the second would be there but it wouldn't be big due to the lower ticket prices. However, the movie proved all calculations wrong to score an estimated 6.50-7 crores net collection on the first Saturday. ## The total collection of the film is around 10.50+ crores net in two days as the opening weekend is looking to be around 18-20 crores net which is way above the pre-release projections. It will be interesting to see if the movie could touch 20 crores net this weekend as there is the cricket world Cup match of India against Pakistan which may impact the night shows. ## The hold on Monday will be crucial for the film though it is in a fantastic position to score well beyond the weekend as it has found acceptance among its target audiences. As of today, the movie is looking to finish over 50 crores net lifetime which will be a fantastic result. ## Stay tuned...
