Akshay Kumar To Headline Sequels To 'Hera Pheri', 'Awara Pagal Deewana', And 'Welcome'

Mumbai, November 8 - It has been a tough year for Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar who failed to give a single hit at the box office in many many years. Akshay has four theatrical releases in 2022, and none of them could reach 100 crores at the domestic box office.## Though the box office numbers of his movies are higher than most of the other Bollywood films, the films underperformed as the expectations were high. The box office scenario post the covid-19 pandemic has changed a lot and it seems Akshay Kumar has realized it and has decided to revive the iconic characters he played in the past. ## According to Pinkvilla, Akshay Kumar has decided to revive the blockbuster sequels to his iconic comedy capers like "Hera Pheri", "Welcome", and "Awara Pagal Deewana". It is said that the superstar has been meeting with producer Firoz Nadiadwala and they already have had multiple meetings over the last few months. ## The news about "Hera Pheri 3" has already been making noise for the last couple of years as Nadiadwala confirmed in multiple interviews that he has a script ready for this blockbuster franchise to take this forward. ## "The idea is to revive the three franchises and bring back the Hindi cinema audience in a big way. The three films fit the bill of post covid content, to create genuine excitement in the audience. The talks are on with 3 top directors, and expect an official announcement on one of the three projects in the next few months", the report says.## Apart from the aforementioned films, Akshay will also be visiting "Jolly LLB 3", and "Houseful 5" along with the already announced two-hero action comedy "Bade Miyan Chote Miyan". He also has "OMG 2", "Soorarai Pottru" remake, "Selfiee", and "Capsule Gill" in the pipeline. ## Stay tuned...

Ranveer Singh To Team Up With Shankar For The Velpari Novel's Cinematic Adaptation

Mumbai, November 7 - Maverick filmmaker S. Shankar and energetic Bollywood star Ranveer Singh announced the maiden collaboration last year for the Hindi remake of "Anniyan". However, there hasn't been any development since then and now, as per the latest reports, that film is not happening anymore, instead, the duo will be collaborating on something very big. ## According to Pinkvilla, the super-talented duo will be collaborating on the cinematic adaptation of the iconic Tamil epic Novel, Velpari, which is touted to be the biggest pan-India cinematic event after SS Rajamouli's "Bahubali". ## It is said that Shankar wants to create something very big with the Velpari novel and teamed up with Ranveer Singh for its cinematic adaptation. The novel has everything to offer – from a larger-than-life hero to incredible life lessons, to a heart-touching love story and magnificent visual-effect sequences whose scale will set the next benchmark of action spectacles in India. ## The film will reportedly be made in 3-parts as it is so vast and complex that all the aspects can't be covered in one film. The shoot of the first part is expected to begin in mid-2023 and this will be the biggest film in both Shankar and Ranveer's careers.## Meanwhile, it was recently reported that Tamil star Suriya had bought the cinematic rights to Velpari novel and was reported that he would be playing the lead role with Shankar directing it. He may now produce this mega-budget film, however, the official confirmation is yet to be made. ## Stay tuned...

Prabhas' 'Adipurush' Set To Be Delayed Further From Summer 2023?

Mumbai, November 5 - The makers of Prabhas-fronted magnum opus Adipurush released the teaser of the film on October 2 with much enthusiasm only to get criticism from critics and audiences over its poor VFX. ## The makers did manage things by showing the teaser on the big screens and were able to make people change their minds, but other controversies around the characterization of Ramayana's character really pushed the makers back, but again, they somehow managed things by telling people about their vision. ## Directed by Om Raut, "Adipurush" is currently slated for January 12, 2023, release, but as per the recent reports, the makers were left with no choice but to postpone the film to the summer of 2023 as there are a number of big releases on Sankranthi festival and they don't want harm the film's box office potential. ## Now, according to LetsCinema, the real reason for postponing the film was indeed the criticism of VFX shots. The makers are reportedly under pressure to re-do the full VFX which will approximately cost Rs. 100 crores more. It will take a lot of time and thus, the film may not release in the summer of 2023 either. ## The film is produced by T-Series and Retrophiles and might now release in late 2023. It stars Prabhas in the title role of Lord Rama along with Kriti Sanon as Sita, Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh, and Sunny Singh as Laxman among many others in key roles. ## Stay tuned...

Diwali 2022 Sees Underwhelming Result At The Bollywood Box Office

Mumbai, November 3 - The festival of light, Diwali is the biggest occasion for the Hindi film industry and it has always brought joy to the fraternity at the box office. This year, Bollywood has two big films in the form of Ram Setu, and Thank God and both were big enough to bring huge smiles to the faces of the film fraternity. ## Despite the hopes, the Bollywood industry was concerned with the way how things went throughout the year, especially on Holi and Eid festivals and their fear came alive with the underwhelming response to both "Ram Setu" and "Thank God". Despite the mixed to positive talks, both films didn't meet the high expectation. ## "Ram Setu", which stars Akshay Kumar in the lead role, was a perfect outing for Diwali 2022 because of its action-adventure genre revolving around Ram Setu, and so was Ajay Devgn and Sidharth Malhotra's "Thank God". Both the movies failed to take big openings which made things difficult for them going forward and it looks like both will be wrapped up around 110 crores net, which is underwhelming.## Earlier, Eid 2022 too had lukewarm results with "Heropanti 2" and "Runway 34" as both films could only fetch approx. 60 crores net box office collection while Holi had Akshay Kumar's "Bachchhan Paandey", minting only approx. 51 crores net. On Raksha Bandhan in August, Akshay's "Raksha Bandhan", and Aamir Khan's "Laal Singh Chaddha" were two big releases but could only manage approx. 110 crores net collection. ## The Diwali 2021 saw the release of Akshay Kumar's "Sooryavanshi", which was the first major Bollywood release in nearly 18 months. It was the film that reignited hope and collect approx. 195 crores net collection and was a box office hit.## Stay tuned...

As of today, the final lifetime collections of the film are set to be between 40-45cr net box office mark.

Ram Setu First Monday Early Estimates

Mumbai, October 31 - Ram Setu had an average first extended weekend at the box office with around 56cr net box office collections. There was a chance of hitting the 60cr mark but the film remained flat on Sunday due to a cricket match between India and South Africa in peak collections time.## That was one reason but the biggest reason for a limited Saturday growth and flat Sunday was due to average to poor feedback from the audiences as they did not like the film. The extended weekend collections of 56cr came due to the Diwali holidays and the star power of Akshay Kumar and not due to the film.## The first Monday's early estimates suggest 2.70 crores net which is a poor number once again and the film will continue to fall from here on. The first Monday collections will take the entire box office collections of Ram Setu to around the 58.70cr net box office mark. The lifetime business of the film is set to be around 80-85cr net unless the film drops heavily. The 80-85cr lifetime business will still be considered to be a flop business of Ram Setu as it was a huge film in terms of cost.## Stay tuned...

Ram Setu First Sunday Early Estimates

Mumbai, October 30 - Ram Setu which underperformed on the first weekend had shown its first growth yesterday when it grew around 20% and it was expected that the film will show further growth today but that did not happen. Of course, the collections are better than yesterday but the trajectory of the film is not as good as it should have been. ## The film scored an estimated 7.75 crores net on its first Sunday, jumping approx. 5%. The main reasons for limited growth are a cricket world cup match of India and that too in peak collection time. The other reason for limited growth is less appreciation of the film barring a few circuits where it had done decent business.## The first Sunday collections will take the entire box office collections of Ram Setu to around the 56.50cr mark. There is a shortfall of 4cr which would have made the extended weekend of Ram Setu on a decent note. The Monday hold will give the idea of the lifetime business of the film and whether it will be able to cross 100cr net collections or not. Ram Setu will be the fourth consecutive nonperformer of Akshay Kumar along with Bachchan Pandey, Samrat Prithviraj, and Raksha Bandhan who was going through his best phase as an actor with 4 superhit films before the pandemic struck.## Stay tuned...

Thank God Fifth Day/First Saturday Early Estimates

Mumbai, October 29 - Thank God which had poor collections on the first four days has shown growth on the first Saturday of its box office run. Although the growth is not much it is better to see growth to show that the film is not outright rejected though Thank God is very close to being a rejected film.## The early estimate collections on the first Saturday suggest approx. 3.75-4 crores net box office collections which is again a poor collection on Saturday as Saturday acts like a partial holiday due to the next day being Sunday. The film has seen a low collection in practically every circuit barring a few where comedy films do well.## The first Saturday collections will take the entire collections of Thank God to a 25.40cr net box office mark depending on the final Saturday collections. The extended weekend is set to be around the 30-32cr mark which the film should reach in the worst case.## Overall Thank God had a disappointing result at the box office considering the Diwali weekend release. The content of the film looked outdated from the trailer itself and audiences today are way smarter than the makers.## Stay tuned...
