The India Box Office Sees A Positive Sign As Salman Khan Starrer Radhe Released On Limited Screens

Mumbai, July 17, 2021: Salman Khan's Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai was put on hold for more than a year to give it a theatrical release. It was finally set to release in theaters on May 13, but the prevailing second wave of the covid-19 pandemic forced makers to change their plans. However, this time the makers were not in a mood to delay the release anymore, and hence, they opt for simultaneous OTT release via pay-per-view model and theaters on May 13. ## As theaters were closed in India when Radhe release, the movie automatic became a direct-to-digital release, leaving theatrical business gasping. It was in June when the Maharasthra government allowed theaters to reopen in areas where the covid-19 situation was under control. Upon the reopening of cinemas, Radhe released on the big screens, even though only limited screens were available. While the box office collection was nowhere close to the pre-covid era, it was still increasing to see the audiences stepping out from their houses to watch the movie. ## Recently, the Rajasthan and Utter Pradesh governments also permitted the reopening of cinemas with 50% capacity. Before started screening in Rajasthan on July 13, Radhe had collected around Rs. 1.80 lakh across theaters. From Tuesday onwards, Radhe witness a sharp growth in the collection. ## The movie premiered on iconic single-screen theaters, Raj Mandir, and collected approx 25k on Tuesday, 25.3k on Wednesday, 31.5k on Thursday, and around 36k on Friday. On the other hand, Radhe reportadly released at 5 properties in UP on Friday and collected around 60k from 10 shows. Including Rajasthan and UP's collection, Radhe has so far earned approx. 3.30 lakh. ## The box office collection of Radhe in India should be taken positively considering the fact that the movie is almost two months old and received negative reviews from every corner of the country. It shows that the audience is willing to go out to watch movies in theaters if they get a chance. These are nothing but very positive signs for Akshay Kumar starrer Bell Bottom, which is eying Independence day release in theaters. ## Stay tuned...

Junglee Pictures Acquired Life Rights Of Jeevajothi Santhakumar Who Fought Legal Battle Against Dosa King, P Rajagopal

Mumbai, July 7, 2021: Vineet Jain of Junglee Pictures has acquired the life rights of Jeevajothi Santhakumar, who fought a lengthy legal battle against the dosa king, P. Rajagopal who was accused of the murder of Jeevajothi's husband Prince Santhakumar, and eventually being convicted of the crime by the Hon'ble Supreme Court.## Junglee Pictures has collaborated with the renowned screenwriter Bhavani Iyer to pen this story which traces the making of the rags-to-riches businessman, a connoisseur of food, who founded the biggest south Indian food chain that has over 100 outlets across 28 countries. It will also delve into how Rajagopal obsessively tried to take Jeevajothi, the daughter of one of his employees, as his third wife on the advice of an astrologer. ## Jeevajothi was already married to Prince Santhakumar and rejected P Rajagopal who was double her age at that time. The rejection didn't go well with the restaurant mogul, and after one attempted murder, he successfully orchestrated the murder of her husband Santhakumar. He was convicted for a 2001 murder, and began serving a life sentence in July 2019. Several days after his imprisonment, he had a heart attack and died. ## Jeevajothi Santhakumar, who is looking forward to sharing her story with the world, said to Bollywood Hungama, "I am overwhelmed and elated by Junglee Pictures’ decision to make a feature film about my legal and emotional battle with this affluent hotelier, a struggle that went on for 18 years. I am confident that seeing this story on the big screen will bring about a drastic change in the status quo of patriarchy". ## Bhavani Iyer, who also penned Raazi, collaborating with Junglee Pictures for the second time. She is excited to join Junglee Pictures again for an aspirational story of Jeevajothi Santhakumar who fought a long battle against an incredibly powerful person and has survived to tell the tale. "So in our story, one character is a true survivor, while the other is a classic example of what power and delusion can lead to. Writing this is a fabulous challenge and I am so excited to get started", Iyer said. ## The makers of the film will soon announce the star cast for this project based on a case that was covered nationwide and even internationally, for close to two decades until it finally culminated in a landmark Supreme Court judgment in 2019. The makers can not wait to tell the story on the silver screen. ## In our story, while one character is a true survivor, the other is a classic example of what power and delusion can lead to.— Junglee Pictures (@JungleePictures) July 7, 2021 ## Meanwhile, Junglee Pictures currently has two films in the pipeline – Badhaai Do featuring Rajkummar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar, as well as "Doctor G" featuring Ayushmann Khuranna and Rakul Preet Singh. ## Stay tuned...
