Superstar Ram Charan's latest release, Peddi, is currently moving through its first week at the box office. Directed by Buchi Babu Sana in his second outing after Uppena, the film stars Charan as a spirited villager who uses sports to bring his community together, with Janhvi Kapoor playing the lead female role. While there was plenty of interest in the project following the actor's previous success, the actual box office trend is showing a more measured pace as it transitions into the working week. Live Now After a solid opening weekend, Peddi has a good hold domestically on Monday, with early estimates suggesting around 14 crores gross collection. On Monday, it crossed 200 crores in India and became Ram Charan's second film after RRR to achieve the feat. Worldwide, the film has touched the 250 Crore mark, emerging as the actor's second highest-grossing film. While reaching this figure quickly is a notable benchmark for any major production, the momentum will need to remain very consistent to meet the high stakes involved with a project of this scale. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The film is currently drawing a loyal audience in its primary markets, though its ability to sustain this across the upcoming weekdays will be the real test of its theatrical life. Examining the Monday data, the film earned approximately 14 Crore gross in India on its fifth day, which is around 55% per cent drop from the Friday earnings of 31.50 Crore. For a film occupying 8,000 shows nationwide, this growth is stable but perhaps less aggressive than what the initial buzz might have suggested. It indicates that while the core fan base is turning up, the broader mass appeal is still being established in several regions. To provide a clearer picture of the domestic performance, the total India gross collection now stands at around 169.75 Crore. When factoring in the gross amounts, the total India gross reaches 202 Crore. The Telugu market remains the primary driver of these numbers, while the contributions from other language versions are providing a necessary but slower build-up to the overall total.

On its fifth day, the film brought in an estimated 1 Crore from overseas markets, taking the total international gross to 47 Crore so far.

Mumbai, June 8 - The June 5-7 weekend delivered a healthy mix of blockbuster opening and strong holdover performances at the Indian box office. Leading the pack was Ram Charan's Peddi, which emerged as the undisputed winner of the weekend with a sensational 104.50 crore gross during its Friday to Sunday frame. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) After the opening weekend collection of 82.50 crores gross (including premieres), the sports action drama remained solid in the Friday to Sunday frame, dominating the market share by already emerging as one of Ram Charan's biggest grossers at the Indian box office, with a 4-day Indian gross collection of around 187 crores. Meanwhile, David Dhawan and Varun Dhawan's Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai scored a decent opening weekend. The romantic comedy opened to negative to mixed reviews, but somehow managed to stay steady over the weekend. The film took the opening of 9 crore gross and remained flat on Saturday before the big jump on Sunday for a respectable weekend. The film's fate lies in Monday's hold, which is crucial for its box office success.

The horror thriller grossed a stunning 21 crore in its second weekend, recording a massive jump of 125% from the opening frame and proving that positive word-of-mouth is driving its box office run. The film has quickly transformed into one of the season's surprise success stories and is expected to continue performing strongly in the coming days. Rounding out the top five were Blast and Deool Band 2. The action entertainer Blast earned 11.50 crore over the weekend, while the Marathi blockbuster Deool Band 2 added another 8.45 crore to its tally.

It is quite impressive to see how Bhooth Bangla has settled into a remarkably long run as it concludes its eighth weekend in theaters. This horror-comedy marks the highly anticipated reunion of Akshay Kumar and director Priyadarshan, a duo that has historically defined the genre in Hindi cinema. The film follows a familiar yet engaging spooky-funny premise that has clearly struck a chord with the family audience. While the box office windows have become increasingly congested with new arrivals like Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai taking over the majority of screens, this veteran performer is showing incredible grit to stay relevant more than fifty days after its release. Analyzing the cumulative data for the eighth weekend, we see a movie that is making the most of its remaining 623 shows. The weekend began on Day 50 with a low of 0.07 Crore net, but as Saturday arrived, the film found its footing with a 42.9 percent jump to reach 0.10 Crore. The real surprise came on Sunday, where it recorded a massive 100 percent growth to collect 0.20 Crore net. Over these three days, the film maintained an average occupancy that climbed from 13 percent on Friday to a peak of 28 percent on Sunday, proving that there is still a dedicated audience seeking out this specific title during their holiday breaks.

Over the eighth weekend, more than 1,900 tickets were sold across PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis. On Sunday alone, the chains contributed significantly to the footfalls; PVR saw 690 tickets sold, followed by 400 at INOX and 130 at Cinepolis. These rounded figures show that even with a reduced footprint, the film is maintaining a presence in premium urban centers, helping it edge closer to the final stages of its run. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) When we look at the global picture, the total India gross has now climbed to 215.17 Crore, while the India net total stands at 181.67 Crore. With a steady overseas gross contribution of 53.75 Crore, the cumulative worldwide total has now reached a monumental 268.92 Crore. This journey has involved a staggering 242,964 shows across its lifetime, showing the massive scale of its release and the endurance it has displayed against multiple waves of new competition. Perhaps the most significant achievement this weekend is the film's success on the booking platform BookMyShow. With a total of 33.82 lakh tickets sold, the movie has officially surpassed the lifetime BMS records of major hits like OMG 2, which stood at 3 million, and Housefull 5, which recorded 2.40 million. As the theatrical run winds down ahead of its OTT release on June 12, the film currently sits in the third position of Akshay Kumar's post-covid hunt. It still needs to collect 1.71 crore to beat the India net of Housefull 5( 183.38 Cr), but even if it crosses that domestic milestone, it will not be able to overtake the massive worldwide total of Housefull 5(288.67 Cr) to claim the second spot. Consequently, it is set to finish as the third-highest global grosser for the actor in the post-pandemic era, with Sooryavanshi (293 Cr) remaining the undisputed number one.

Suriya has delivered a truly compelling performance in Karuppu, a film that brilliantly blends fantasy action with a biting social commentary. Directed by RJ Balaji, the story follows the guardian deity Vettai Karuppu as he descends to Earth in the form of a lawyer to dismantle a predatory legal system that exploits marginalized citizens. This unique premise, especially the high-octane god mode sequences, has kept audiences thrilled in theaters. RJ Balaji has taken a more serious approach with this film compared to his previous work, and this change seems to be working well . Analyzing the cumulative data for the fourth weekend, the film has shown the kind of resilience usually reserved for all-time blockbusters. Between Friday and Sunday, Karuppu maintained a strong presence with a total of 2,893 shows nationwide. The cumulative net collection for these three days stood at 4.05 Crore, a remarkable figure for a film in its 24th day. This was supported by a healthy average weekend occupancy of nearly 29 percent, with Sunday peaking at approximately 36 percent, proving that the rural connect is still pulling families to the big screen.

Karuppu has now become one of the few films in 2026 to successfully enter the prestigious 300 Crore worldwide club. It joins an elite list of blockbusters that have hit this milestone this year, including Dhurandhar The Revenge, Border 2, and Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu.

In the Telugu states (APTG), the film added a cumulative gross of 0.29 Crore over the three-day period. The home territory of Tamil Nadu remained the strongest contributor by far, bringing in a solid 4.10 Crore during the weekend. Karnataka and Kerala followed with contributions of 0.20 Crore and 0.07 Crore respectively. This combined weekend performance from the South, totaling 4.66 Crore in gross collections, has been the primary driver in pushing the total India gross to 223.55 Crore and its worldwide standing past the 304 Crore mark. The footfalls remain incredibly steady, as seen on BookMyShow where the weekend saw nearly 73,700 tickets sold (15.38K on Friday, 32.22K on Saturday, and 26.1K on Sunday).

Mumbai, June 8 - The Hollywood supernatural psychological horror thriller Obsession has emerged as one of the most surprising box office success stories of the year in India and worldwide. What started as a decent theatrical run has transformed into a genuine phenomenon thanks to exceptional word-of-mouth and sustained audience interest. The film's remarkable growth during its second weekend has caught the attention of trade analysts and exhibitors alike, making it one of the strongest-performing Hollywood releases of recent times. Obsession collected approximately 9.30 crore gross during its opening weekend.

Massive 125% Jump In Second Weekend After grossing approximately 22.10 crores in the first week, the film grossed 21 crore during its second weekend, which is almost equal to its full opening week numbers. However, what is most stunning is that the film registered a phenomenal +125% jump compared to its opening weekend collections of 9.30 crore, which is unheard of.

While the road to the century mark is still a long way, the film's current trend suggests that it has the potential to achieve numbers that seemed unimaginable before its release.

The strong response to the sports action entertainer has helped Ram Charan bounce back in a big way, with audiences embracing his rugged and intense portrayal of the titular character. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Eyes Set On Bigger Milestones The film's immediate target is the 300 crore worldwide mark, which now appears well within reach if it maintains a healthy hold during the weekdays. The makers are optimistic about the long-term prospects of the film, especially considering the strong reception in Telugu-speaking markets and solid overseas support. Starring Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor in the lead roles, Peddi has emerged as one of the biggest Telugu box-office grossers of 2026 so far. The 4-day opening weekend is expected to be around 230 crores gross, but it will be important for the film to perform well in the weekdays, which will be crucial for its massive break-even target of around 500 crores gross.

Ram Charan's latest release, Peddi, has reached a significant milestone by surpassing 2 million ticket sales on BookMyShow. This mark was achieved in just 2.5 days, as the film crossed the threshold by midday on its third day. The steady pace of bookings suggests that the movie is successfully maintaining its momentum through the first weekend. This achievement places the film among the elite fast-movers in Indian cinema history. By reaching this figure in 2.5 days, Peddi has officially tied with RRR for the fourth-fastest record on the platform. The current standings for the fastest films to reach the 2 million sales mark are as follows: 1st Place: Pushpa 2: The Rule – Reached via pre-release bookings alone 2nd Place: Kalki 2898 AD – 1.5 Days 3rd Place: Baahubali 2: The Conclusion – 2 Days 4th Place Devara – 2 Days 5th Place: RRR and Peddi – 2.5 Days (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Securing a spot alongside legendary titles like Baahubali 2 and RRR is a huge statement for any film. The momentum started early with a robust pre-sale period that saw 874,900 tickets sold. The opening day on Thursday was explosive, adding 651,040 tickets, while Friday maintained a strong hold with another 387,780 tickets. By the early hours of Saturday, the cumulative total had reached 1,913,720, and it quickly surged past the 2 million mark shortly after. The intensity of the audience's interest is also evident in the peak hour data. Peddi recorded a peak of 47,330 tickets sold in a single hour on BookMyShow. This performance places it fourth in the all-time peak hour rankings, only trailing behind Pushpa 2, Kalki 2898 AD, and Salaar. It managed to outperform several other massive releases in this metric, showing the sheer density of demand during prime booking slots. Here is the list of the top peak hour performances on BMS: 1. Pushpa 2 - 107.65K 2. Kalki 2898 AD - 95.71K 3. Salaar - 54.76K 4. Peddi - 47.33K 5. The Raja Saab - 44.36K 6. Devara - 38.02K 7.

While the very early morning slots between 6 am and 9 am were slightly quieter than Friday, the numbers began to jump significantly from 9 am onwards. For instance, between 10 am and 11 am, the film sold 24,480 tickets compared to 23,870 yesterday. The 11 am to 12 pm window was even better, with 27,350 tickets sold today against 21,940 yesterday. Overall, the cumulative sales from 6 am to 12 pm today stand at 97,080, which is higher than yesterday's 92,850 for the same period. According to early trends, Peddi has had a strong start at the box office. On its second day, the film collected 26.90 crore net in India across 10,113 shows. While this represents a 47.3 percent drop from the 51.00 crore net collected on opening day, it is a standard trend for big-budget releases heading into the weekend. The total India net collection now stands at 96.40 crore, while the India gross has reached 114.49 crore. Combined with a steady overseas gross of 36.00 crore, the worldwide total gross for Peddi has touched 150.49 crore in just two days. This upward trend on Saturday suggests that the film is heading toward a massive first weekend. Crossing the 2 million mark within 72 hours is a rare feat that highlights the immense star power of Ram Charan and the strong connect the film has found with the masses. We will keep tracking these numbers closely as Peddi continues its historic run at the box office.

Blast has officially wrapped up its extended eight-day opening week, and the performance reflects a movie that is building a solid foundation in its ongoing theatrical run. Over these first eight days, the film managed to put up a strong total, securing the sixth spot among the highest week 1 collections in Kollywood for 2026. This is an impressive feat, as the movie has managed to carve out its own space and attract consistent footfalls. The momentum has been driven largely by robust collections in Tamil Nadu and Kerala, with other regions providing the necessary support to keep the numbers ticking. To give you an idea of the scale of this opening, Blast saw over 18,869 shows during its first eight days. The audience response was particularly visible on the ticket booking platforms, with nearly 666,900 tickets sold on BookMyShow in the first week alone. National chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis contributed significantly as well, recording over 95,800 ticket sales during this extended period.

Mohanlal’s Drishyam 3 has navigated through its first 16 days at the box office, and while the numbers remain impressive, we are seeing a clear shift in momentum. After a massive opening and a solid first week, the initial hype has started to settle down. This is partly because the word of mouth hasn’t been as explosive as the previous installments, leading to a quicker exhaustion of the urban audience than initially expected. However, reaching the hundred-crore mark in India net collections is a milestone that very few Malayalam films achieve, and Drishyam 3 has comfortably secured that spot. Let's break down how the film performed during its second week. Between Day 9 and Day 15, the movie managed to add a gross of ₹23.99 Cr to its tally. During this period, the film saw a steady stream of viewers, but the drops on weekdays were more noticeable. Across its entire run so far, the film has played in over 54,455 shows. The ticket sales on BookMyShow tell a story of two halves: while the first extended week saw a massive 2.52 million tickets sold, the second week saw that number drop to 576,000. For national chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis, the second week saw over 69,600 tickets being sold. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The state-wise gross for the second week shows that Kerala remains the primary engine for this film, though other regions contributed fairly well before the slowdown began. Here is how the gross was distributed across India for Week 2: Kerala: ₹19.20 Cr Karnataka: ₹1.76 Cr Tamil Nadu: ₹1.19 Cr APTG (Andhra Pradesh/Telangana): ₹1.07 Cr Rest of India: ₹0.77 Cr Here is the performance breakdown for the second week leading into the third Friday: Drishyam 3 - India Net Collection BreakdownDAYINDIA NET COLLECTIONSHOWSDay 9 (2nd Friday)₹ 4.30 Cr2,524Day 10 (2nd Saturday)₹ 5.10 Cr2,570Day 11 (2nd Sunday)₹ 5.35 Cr2,454Day 12 (2nd Monday)₹ 2.20 Cr2,276Day 13 (2nd Tuesday)₹ 1.55 Cr2,142Day 14 (2nd Wednesday)₹ 1.25 Cr1,871Day 15 (3rd Thursday)₹ 0.93 Cr1,394Week 2 Total₹ 20.68 Cr15,231Day 16 (3rd Friday)₹ 0.80 Cr851Total India Net₹ 103.43 Cr54,455 (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Talking about the third Friday, Day 16, the film collected ₹0.80 Cr net in India. This represents a 14 percent drop from the previous day's collection of ₹0.93 Cr. In the national chains—PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis—the film sold approximately 1,300 tickets on its sixteenth day, generating a gross of about ₹3.08 Lakhs with an occupancy of nearly 9 percent across 86 shows. On BookMyShow, the film recorded 30,570 ticket bookings for the day, bringing the total platform sales to over 3.76 million since release. The overseas market continues to be a massive pillar for Drishyam 3, providing a significant boost to its global standing. During the second week, the international performance remained quite healthy, especially over the weekend. The film collected 2.50 crore on Day 9, 2.75 crore on Day 10, and 2.25 crore on Day 11. As it moved into the weekdays, we saw the usual drop in collections, with 0.75 crore on Day 12, 0.60 crore on Day 13, 0.40 crore on Day 14, and 0.15 crore on Day 15. This brings the total overseas collection for the second week alone to a solid 9.40 crore. On its third Friday, Day 16, it added another 0.10 crore from international markets, taking the total overseas gross to 111.25 crore so far. When you combine this with the India gross of 120.01 crore, the worldwide total now stands at 231.26 crore, while the India net collection has reached 103.43 crore. Where does this put Drishyam 3 in the all-time rankings? Currently, it is chasing the record of Vaazha 2: Biopic of a Billion Bros, which finished its run at ₹235.26 Cr worldwide. Drishyam 3 needs exactly 4.00 Cr more to overtake it and claim the fourth spot in the list of highest-grossing Malayalam movies. While it has already surpassed many big titles, it still has a climb ahead to reach the likes of Manjummel Boys at ₹241.03 Cr, L2: Empuraan at ₹266.81 Cr, and the chart-topper Lokah: Chapter 1 - Chandra at over ₹303 Cr. With the current trend, reaching the top three seems like a tough challenge, but crossing Vaazha 2 is definitely within reach over the next few days.
