Box Office: 'Karan Arjun' and 'Pushpa - The Rise' Re-Release Opening Weekend Collection

Mumbai, November 24 - There were a couple of re-releases this weekend at the Hindi box office in the form of Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan-fronted cult classic Karan Arjun and Allu Arjun-starrer Pushpa - The Rise of which the sequel is gearing up for December 5 release worldwide. ## Karan Arjun, directed by Rakesh Roshan, had a wide re-release with over 2000 shows scheduled daily during the opening weekend. However, the movie couldn't replicate the success of the recent Bollywood re-releases and ended with the opening of around 1 crore gross collection. ## There wasn't much movement in the collection after the opening day of around 30 lakh gross as Saturday figures were almost similar to Friday and on Sunday, the movie is expected to gross around 40 lakh. With a not-so-encouraging opening weekend after a wide re-release, Karan Arjun is unlikely to have much impact during the weekdays. ## Allu Arjun's Pushpa - The Rise also had a wide re-release this weekend in Hindi and managed to gross around 70 lakh in the opening weekend. There wasn't much awareness about the re-release of the film among the audiences so whatever it has earned is a bonus. ## The Sukumar's directorial, which was originally released in 2021, grossed around 20 lakh on its first day of re-release, followed by 25 lakh each on Saturday and Sunday.

Mumbai, November 23 - Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's two cult classics, romantic comedy Kal Ho Naa Ho and reincarnation action drama Karan Arjun which also has superstar Salman Khan, got re-released recently but there seems to be not much interest for the letter. ## Karan Arjun (1995), directed by Rakesh Roshan, got one of the widest re-releases for a Bollywood movie, however, the anticipation seems isn't that much the makers hoped for as it is not getting much audience in theatres. ## The film grossed approximately 30 lakh on its opening day which is, even though among the top openings for a Bollywood re-release, is nowhere near the expected start considering the wide release. It is not showing much improvement on Saturday with collection expected to be in the same range as Friday. ## Meanwhile, Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003), which was re-launched on November 15, looks like will be winning the re-release race against Karan Arjun despite a much smaller release. After grossing approximately 2.40 crores in the first week, the film started the second weekend with around 20 lakh gross collection on the second Friday (8th day). ## The Nikkhil Advani's directorial has taken a lead over Karan Arjun on Saturday as it is expected to gross over 50 lakh. The second weekend of KHNH could be 1.25+ crores gross wherein Karan Arjun might end up with around 1 crore gross opening weekend despite having more than 4X showcasing daily. ## Both the aforementioned films were big hits in their original run but it is KHNH which continues to attract the moviegoers ever after two decades. ## Stay tuned...

Box Office: 'Kal Ho Naa Ho' Re-Release Mints Over 2.25 Crore Gross In The First Week

Mumbai, November 22 - One of the Bollywood classics from Yash Raj Films, Kal Ho Naa Ho starring Shah Rukh Khan, Saif Ali Khan, and Preity Zinta, continues to spread magic even after more than 2 decades later.## Directed by Nikhil Advani, the romantic comedy was re-released on November 15, continuing the trend Bollywood has successfully followed throughout this year. The film opened around 12 lakh gross collection from a little over 100 shows before the shows increased from the second day onwards.## Footfalls significantly increased after more shows were added as the movie grossed approximately 90 lakh in the first weekend. The nostalgia factor and popularity among the audiences continued to play its role after the weekend as the Monday collection was almost the same as Saturday. ## The movie grossed approximately 1.50 crores from Monday to Thursday with a positive trend during the weekdays. The total first-week collection was approximately 2.40 crores gross (2.10 crores net), which is higher than some of the recent Bollywood re-release films. ## There is one more Shah Rukh Khan film re-releasing this week in the form of cult classic Karan Arjun, also starring Salman Khan, so it will be more about re-experiencing those classics rather than the box office. On the popularity and demand, Karan Arjun is expected to have a very good outing and chances are that it might score the biggest first weekend for a Bollywood re-release which needs to be seen.## Stay tuned...

Ajay Devgn and Akshay Kumar Talk About Unity Among The 90s Stars And Lack of It In New Bollywood Actors

Mumbai, November 16 - Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgn share a great rapport and have come together to lend helping hands more to promote each other's films, something which is lacking among the current generation of Bollywood actors. ## Speaking at the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit on November 16, the duo was asked whether Bollywood lack unity when it comes to clashing their films, unlike South Indian cinema which often avoids big clashes. Both Akshay and Ajay agreed that there is a lack of unity in the industry but also assert that the same is not among the 90s stars. ## Ajay said that he along with Akshay, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan, who all debuted around the 1990s, are there for each other when it comes to supporting each other films and never made things difficult for each other which is not the case for the current gen of actors, who, as reported many a times, don't support each other's movies.## The actor also reflects on the noble gesture by Akki towards him regarding the title of Son of Sardaar. Speaking about the same, the Tanhaji star said that the title of SOS was registered by Akshay and when he needed that title for his comic caper, the latter gave the title to him without even a blink.## Son of Sardaar (2012) later became a big box office hit and now its sequel, Son of Sardaar 2 is currently under production for the release in the first half of 2025. Meanwhile, as confirmed by Ajay Devgn himself, he will be directing a feature film headlined by Akshay and the details for the same will be announced soon.## #HTLS2024 | Does the Hindi film fraternity stand for each other?Industry is really divided, says @ajaydevgn. @akshaykumar adds how 'unity' is lacking acrossTune in #LIVE 🔗 https://t.co/4ujOO3C7TE@AdaniOnline @AudiIN @AdityaBirlaGrp | @sonalkalra | #IdeasThatInspire pic.twitter.com/ZE0CDwRHy1— Mint (@livemint) November 16, 2024 ## Stay tuned...

The yet-untitled movie will be produced by Luv Ranjan who reunites with the actor after De De Pyaar De and its upcoming sequel.## According to the report by Peepingmoon.com, the yet-untitled film is a book adaptation.

The pre-production for the film has already commenced and is going on at a brisk pace as the makers are aiming to take the film on floors by January 2025. ## Ajay will start Jagan's film after completing Son of Sardar 2 which is expected to be wrapped soon. As for the release, the actor is fresh from the box office success of Singham Again which is currently playing in theaters in its third week. His next release will be Raid 2, followed by SOS 2, and De De Pyaar De 2 next year. ## Stay tuned...
