Ikkis Box Office Day 1 Early Estimates: Maddock Films' War Biopic Takes A Good Opening

Mumbai, January 1 - The Bollywood industry might be in for a pleasant surprise to begin 2026 as Maddock Films' war biopic drama Ikkis, which happens to be legendary late Dharmendra's last film, has taken a good start at the domestic box office, exceeding expectations. New Year's Day, being a holiday, has always drawn footfalls, and Ikkis has taken the full advantage of it despite Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar continuing to dominate the box office. Starring Agastya Nanda in the title role, the film has scored an estimated 6.75-7.25 crores net on its opening day, which is better than what pre-sales suggested. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Ikkis expectedly had mid-pre-sales, which suggested 4-5 crores net start, but the holiday advantage and early positive reception have propelled the opening to much higher numbers. The opening of the film is actually better than Kartik Aaryan's Christmas release, Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, which is a very good sign. Directed by Sriram Raghavan, Ikkis was originally scheduled to release on December 25, but was postponed to give it a genuine chance to perform amid the Dhurandhar wave. The decision to postpone the film seems to have paid off, and it is now all about building on the momentum. Stay tuned...

Kartik Aaryan To Reunite With Kabir Khan For A Sports-Adventure Film; Shoot Details Revealed

Mumbai, December 29 - Bollywood heartthrob Kartik Aaryan and director Kabir Khan are reportedly set to reunite after sports biopic Chandu Champion, which was released last year. The actor-director duo will be teaming up for a sports-adventure film set against the backdrop of Kashmir. According to the report by Bollywood Hungama, "Kartik and Kabir are teaming up for what could be a game-changer in the genre. It's a one of its kind sports adventure with a high production budget. Kartik will be undergoing rigorous training for the film". (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The shoot of the film will reportedly commence from February to October 2026 at multiple locations, and Kartik will undergo physical transformation for his part. The actor will start Khan's film after wrapping up Dharma Productions' creature comedy Nagzilla, which is currently on floors. Kartik has multiple films in the pipeline. He will reportedly be reuniting with director Anees Bazmee for horror comedy Bhool Bhulaiyaa 4, which is expected to start after Kabir Khan's film. He has also been in talks to reunite with Luv Ranjan for a rom-com. Meanwhile, the actor's Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri is currently playing in theatres in its first week. He will next be seen in Anurag Basu's musical romantic film, Tu Aashiqui Hai, which is scheduled to release in the first half of 2026. Stay tuned...

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri Box Office: Kartik Aaryan-starrer Scores Low First Weekend

Mumbai, December 29 - In the year where romantic films made the most at the box office, Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Pandey-starrer Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri seems to be going the opposite direction after the low opening weekend at the domestic box office. Directed by Sameer Vidwans, TMMTMTTM was originally scheduled to release in February 2026, before the makers moved the release date up twice, but the move didn't work due to poor reviews and competition with Dhurandhar and Avatar: Fire and Ash, which have dominated the month so far. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) TMMTMTTM opened in the 7-8 crores net range, that too on Christmas day and after the alleged feeding. The opening itself suggested the muted interest of moviegoers, and poor reviews further made its life difficult at the box office, as the movie remained flat throughout the opening weekend. As per estimates, the romantic comedy scored 23-24 crores in net collection over its 4-day opening weekend, one of the lowest for a Bollywood title featuring notable actors. With the debut itself on the lower side, the film will need a miracle to sustain, even on the lower side, as word of mouth doesn't seem to be in favour of it. Stay tuned...

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri Box Office: Goes Down on Day 2 After Poor Opening

Mumbai, December 27 - Dharma Productions and Namah Pictures' romantic-comedy Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri went down on the second day. Of course, the drop was expected since it had a Christmas release, but the opening itself was not-so-good with 7-8 crores net. Starring Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Pandey, TMMTMTTM failed to generate pre-release buzz, which was clearly visible in pre-sales (despite the sales being better than many other films, and you know the reason). The makers were still hopeful that the film's biz would pick up on Christmas Day, which didn't happen due to poor reviews and word of mouth. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The Sameer Vidwans' directorial, after failing to take a respectable start, went down by 30% to score 5-5.50 crores net on the second day, Friday, pushing total net collection to around 13 crores in 2 days. The film might pick up on Saturday and Sunday, but it will be hard for it to sustain beyond that because of the seemingly poor word of mouth. At the worldwide box office, TMMTMTTM has grossed around 19 crores. The film needs to score over 100 crores to be deemed successful, but it will be an uphill task for it reach there. It has been one of the weakest Christmas releases, and came up against Dhurandhar and Avatar 3, which have dominated the overall biz. The movie could still have performed had the content been good, but it didn't make any impact. Stay tuned...

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri Box Office: Dharma Productions' Rom-Com Off To A Poor Start

Mumbai, December 26 - Dharma Productions' romantic comedy Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, featuring Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Pandey, had a poor opening day at the domestic box office, falling well short of a double-digit opening. Released on a national holiday of Christmas, TMMTMTTM collected 7-8 crores net on day 1. The real collection, however, is even lower, as there are allegations of feeding. Despite the external push, the movie failed to take a respectable opening. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) TMMTMTTM was always going to struggle due to the lack of buzz and the domination of Dhurandhar and Avatar 3, which are clearly the first two choices of moviegoers at the moment. The opening of Kartik Aaryan's starrer could have been slightly better had the word of mouth been positive, but that doesn't seem to be the case. It can be said that there is no way forward for the rom-com, as neither word of mouth seems to be proving, nor are the holdover films stopping anytime soon. The film was originally planned for a February 2026 release before the makers moved it up a couple of times; however, these plans often fail if the content is weak. Stay tuned...

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri Box Office (Advance Booking): Kartik Aaryan-starrer Heads For Single-Digit Opening

Mumbai, December 23 - Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday-fronted romantic comedy Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri is heading towards a single-digit opening at the domestic box office, considering the current scenario of limited screen availability and restricted showcasing across major centres. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Directed by Sameer Vidwans, the film has been finding it difficult to carve out space amid the overwhelming box office dominance of Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar, which continues to pull in strong footfalls, and James Cameron's Hollywood specatcle Avatar: Fire and Ash, which has occupied a significant chunk of premium screens nationwide. As a result of the box office dominance of the other two films, TMMTMTTM has been allotted fewer shows so far, especially in key urban centres. The advance booking for the movie opened recently, but the momentum has remained on the lower side. The film is clearly struggling to generate buzz, with multiplexes opting for other strong-performing titles over the romantic comedy. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) TMMTMTTM being an urban-centric film, strong multiplex support was expected to drive its opening numbers. However, the lack of enough screens in premium properties has put the film in a tricky position ahead of its December 25 release. Even with the limited shows currently available, the pre-sales trend has been underwhelming, with overall advance collections struggling to touch the 1 crore mark. There is still a day left, and if it manages to get some more screens, which it should with credible stars featuring in it, then it can hope for a decent start. However, if things don't improve, TMMTMTTM is likely to open in the range of 5 crore net, which will be disappointing. Stay tuned...

Maddock Films' Ikkis Postponed By A Week Amid Dhurandhar Storm

Mumbai, December 17 — Producer Dinesh Vijan's Maddock Films has postponed the release of its much-anticipated war drama Ikkis by a week amid the extraordinary box office dominance of Ranveer Singh-fronted Dhurandhar. The film was originally scheduled to release on December 25, but will now arrive in cinemas in early January 2026. The move comes as Dhurandhar continues its historic run, pulling massive footfalls across domestic and international markets even in its second week. It is said that Aditya Dhar's directorial has left very little room for another patriotic film to perform optimally during the same period.

It also stars late Dharmendra, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Simar Bhatia. Ikkis marks the last feature film for legendary Dharmendra, who recently passed away due to prolonged illness. Industry insiders see the postponement as a strategic decision rather than a delay caused by concern. It was also in direct clash with Kartik Aaryan's Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, which is now arriving solo on December 25.

Dhurandhar Box Office Day 9 (Early Trends): Ranveer Singh-Starrer Hits The Ball Out of The Park To Score Biggest Second Saturday

Mumbai, December 13 - Ranveer Singh's spy actioner Dhurandhar has hit the ball out of the park to score the biggest and potentially the first 50 crores net second Saturday at the domestic box office. The previous biggest second Saturday belonged to Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2, which minted 46 crores net last year. Dhurandhar started the second Saturday on a blockbuster note with morning occupancy clocking close to 50%, and it maintained the pace throughout the day. The average occupancy of the day will be around 65%-70%, jumping by 55% from Friday, which puts the film on course to score 52-54+ crores. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The film has entered the territory where capacity issues are arising in many centres, which is going to same on Sunday as well. But capacity issues during weekends normally translate into a strong hold in weekdays, which has been the case with Dhurandhar so far and is expected to remain in the coming days. Dhurandhar has been locked to score the biggest second weekend, which is heading for 135+ crores net, which will take its total collection to 342+ crores net in 10 days. With strong weekdays expected, the movie will be around the 400 crores mark at the end of the second week, which is sensational. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) For Dhurandhar, virtually there is no competition this week, but next week brings James Cameron's Avatar: Fire & Ash, followed by Kartik Aaryan's TMMTMTTM during Christmas, which will take away some screens. However, with exceptional word of mouth, Dhurandhar is expected to make the most of the Christmas and New Year holiday period despite the competition. Stay tuned...

Dhurandhar Box Office: Ranveer Singh-Starrer Sets Box Office On Fire With Biggest Second Friday Collection

Mumbai, December 12 - Bollywood star Ranveer Singh-fronted Dhurandhar is eyeing history as it continues its phenomenal box office run into the second weekend. After an excellent first week, Aditya Dhar's directorial has taken a giant leap and is now delivering the biggest second Friday ever at the Hindi box office, as per early estimates. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The spy action thriller began its second Friday on a good note but witnessed massive growth as the day progressed, with evening and night occupancies turning sensational across major circuits. According to early trends, the film is set to collect 31-33 crores net, surpassing Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2, which earned 27 crores on its second Friday. Dhurandhar has grown from strength to strength in the first week, maintaining a sensational hold and consistency during the working days. The film recorded no drop from Monday to Thursday, laying a strong platform for a thunderous second weekend. Its total domestic net collection stands at 238+ crores through the second Friday. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Advance bookings for Saturday and Sunday are excellent, though the scale of the jump will determine whether the film can secure the biggest second weekend of all time. As of now, it is pacing towards a massive 120+ crores net second weekend, not too far behind Pushpa 2's 127 crore record. Dhurandhar faces virtually no competition this week — and even if there were any, it wouldn't have mattered much with the kind of phenomena it has turned into. Next week brings James Cameron's Avatar: Fire & Ash, followed by Kartik Aaryan's TMMTMTTM during Christmas, which will take away some screens. However, with exceptional word of mouth, Dhurandhar is expected to make the most of the Christmas and New Year holiday period despite the competition. Stay tuned...
