Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor's Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumar Box Office Preview/Opening Day Expectations

Mumbai, October 1 - Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor's romantic comedy drama Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari is gearing up for release this Dussehra, amid some expectations. Directed by Shashank Khaitan, the film has managed to catch the attention with songs and trailer, which is aimed at the family audience. It has been certified U/A by the CBFC and carries a runtime of 2 hours 15 minutes. Varun Dhawan and Shashank Khaitan are a proven combo, having delivered box office hits like Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania and Badrinath Ki Dulhania, and the expectations are no different this time either. However, unlike in the past, there are challenges for the film this time. While the trade is expecting this combo to hit the bull's eye, the ground buzz doesn't seem to be that strong. The advance booking of the film was opened a couple of days ago, but it hasn't found momentum with less than a day to go for the release. The pre-sales are proceeding at a slow pace, with the big momentum missing that usually accompanies a festive release. So far, the movie has accumulated approximately 1.40 crore in pre-sales and is heading for a finish around 2.50–3 crore gross for the opening day. This figure places the film below the advance sale of recent Bollywood releases like Jolly LLB 3 (3.23 crore gross) and Sitaare Zameen Par (3.30 crore gross), both of which managed to open in double digits on Day 1. Given the current trend, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari might struggle to reach that mark and is instead looking at an opening in the 8–10 crore net range domestically. The film does, however, benefit from the Dussehra holiday, which could give a crucial boost to its spot bookings, especially in urban multiplexes. The challenge lies in single screens, where Kantara: Chapter 1 is enjoying stronger buzz and demand, making the competition tougher for Varun and Janhvi’s outing. Directed by Shashank Khaitan and backed by Dharma Productions, the film also stars Sanya Malhotra and Rohit Saraf in supporting roles. With positive word of mouth and the holiday advantage, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari still has a chance to build momentum post its release, but its opening day numbers are likely to stay modest compared to recent big festive Bollywood launches.

Shraddha Kapoor Announces Animated Film Chhoti Stree Before Stree 3

Mumbai, September 27 - Producer Dinesh Vijan's Maddock Films is expanding its horror comedy universe and is set to introduce an animated film on Stree. The official announcement of the film was made on Saturday, 26, during the trailer launch event of Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna-fronted Thamma. Maddock had been teasing a big surprise for the past few days, and it was finally revealed during the Thamma trailer launch. The event was also attended by Shraddha Kapoor, who has been the biggest star of the Maddock Horror Comedy Universe with blockbuster films like Stree and Stree 2. While all eyes were on the Thamma trailer, Shraddha delighted the fans that before Stree 3, there will be an animated film titled Chhoti Stree based on the popular character. The animated movie will explore the backstory of Stree and will reportedly end with a scene of Stree 3, which will be released in 2027. "Kids and adults all watch Stree together. The interesting bit about Chhoti Stree is the way Amar and Niren have conceptualised it. It'll end with a scene from Stree 3. So, it'll transform from an animation to a live-action movie in the end. It'll also answer the question ki Stree ki back story kya hai. It'll arrive 6 months before Stree 3", Shraddha said. Meanwhile, Thamma, directed by Munjya fame Aditya Sarpotdar, is scheduled to release on October 21 on the occasion of Diwali. The film will feature a cameo of Varun Dhawan's Bhediya and is also linked with Munjya. Stay tuned...

Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, the film will be released on October 21, on the occasion of the Diwali festival. The release date was confirmed with the trailer, which was launched on September 26 during an event. The trailer is packed with horror, suspense, and comedy, promising another blockbuster ride in the Maddock Horror Comedy Universe. The movie also confirmed a cameo of Varun Dhawan's Bhediya. Thamma has been in the news ever since it was announced, primarily because of its fresh pairing of Ayushmann and Rashmika, who are collaborating for the first time, along with the movie's connection with Maddock's horror comedy universe. It is the 5th movie in MHCU. Thamma is touted to be the first bloody love story of MHCU.

Kantara Chapter 1 Makers Spark Dispute In Hindi Belt With Unreasonable Showcasing Demands Against Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari

Mumbai, September 26 - The Dussehra 2025 box office clash between South biggie Kantara Chapter 1 and the much-awaited Bollywood romantic comedy Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari seems to be taking an ugly turn after the makers demand exclusive excessive showcasing for the Kantara prequel. With less than a week to go before the release, the makers of both films are leaving no stone unturned to make their films reach the maximum audience, and in between, a dispute over showcasing has started making headlines. According to the report by Bollywood Hungama, AA Films, the distributors of Kanatar 2, have sent an email to the exhibitors regarding their requirement for the shows. It is said that "they have demanded that all shows in single-screen and 12 shows in two-screen cinemas. The latter also amounts to all shows; they mention the same clearly in the mail to avoid any confusion. Shockingly, they have also asked for 18 shows in three-screen multiplexes, which, in other words, also amounts to every show." The Kantara makers are very well aware that Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor's Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumar is releasing on the same day, yet they have asked for such a showcase in the Hindi belt, which is not just unreasonable, but also laughable. An exhibitor, on condition of anonymity, told Bollywood Hungama, "I don't agree with this unreasonable demand. We understand that Kantara is a highly anticipated film. But then, even Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari also looks like a fun entertainer, which will attract family audiences and youth. Hence, I'd like to play that film as well." The report further states that AA Films has demanded 100% shows in IMAX properties, along with a higher percentage of shows in theatres with 4-screens and beyond. It needs to be seen how things turn out, but at the moment, it doesn't look like the game is fair. Stay tuned...

High Voltage Bijuria Song From Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor's Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari Out Now

Mumbai, September 3 - The much-awaited Bijuria song from Dharma Productions' upcoming romantic comedy Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, has been released, and as expected, it is a perfect recreation of the iconic 1999 song by Sonu Nigam. Sung by Sonu Nigam and Asees Kaur, the recreation of the song instantly made an impression. In the video song, Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor are seen in a party mood where Varun is trying to impress Janhvi, who is looking super hot in a golden saree, as the duo sets the stage on fire. Apart from Varun and Janhvi, the song also features Sanya Malhotra and Rohit Saraf, who play the second lead in the movie. The peppy number is a perfect ode to Sonu Nigam's old song. The new version is reimagined by Tanishk Bagchi, who has also written the additional lyrics in the original song written by Sonu Nigam. Talking about the film, SSKTK is directed by Shashak Khaitaan and produced by Dharma Productions and Mentor Disciple Entertainment. It is scheduled to release on October 2nd worldwide. Stay tuned...

Sidharth Malhotra's Top 5 Opening Weekend Grossers: Param Sundari At No. 4 Behind Student of The Year Bollywood

Sidharth Malhotra's Top 5 Opening Weekend Grossers: Param Sundari At No. 4 Behind Student of The Year

Mumbai, September 1 - Bollywood actor Sidharth Malhotra returns to the big screen with the romantic-comedy Param Sundari, which is off to a good start at the box office. The movie carried a decent buzz, which also translated into footfalls on the expected lines. Param Sundari scored the opening weekend collection of around 27 crores net, which is among the biggest of his career, but the biggest opening weekend still belongs to Brothers, which released in 2015 and also starred Akshay Kumar. The action drama opened to good numbers and collected around 52 crore in its first three days. Close behind Brothers is romantic action thriller Ek Villain (2014), which turned out to be a game-changer for Sidharth. With its strong music and gripping storyline, the film earned over 50 crores net in its opening weekend and cemented the actor's standing among the bankable young stars of that time. Sidharth's debut film, Student of the Year (2012), backed by Karan Johar, continues to hold a special place. Despite being a launchpad for three newcomers, Sidharth, Varun Dhawan, and Alia Bhatt, the film impressed at the ticket windows with a 30 crore weekend. More than a decade later, it still outshines some of his recent work, including Param Sundari, when it comes to the opening performance. Just behind Param Sundari, which is the 4th biggest opening weekend grosser of the actor, is Kapoor & Sons (2016), which managed 26 crore despite not being promoted as a mass entertainer. Another notable film is Marjaavaan (2019), which collected over 24 crore but couldn't break into the top five weekend grossers of Sidharth. With Param Sundari placing fourth in his career's biggest opening weekends, it's evident that Sidharth's strongest box office impact so far has come from action-packed or ensemble films. As he continues to explore new genres, fans and trade alike will be watching closely to see if he can surpass the benchmark set by Brothers and deliver an even bigger opening in the future.

From Student of the Year to Param Sundari: 13 Years of Sidharth Malhotra's Cinematic Journey Bollywood

From Student of the Year to Param Sundari: 13 Years of Sidharth Malhotra's Cinematic Journey

Mumbai, August 28 - Very few would have imagined the journey Sidharth Malhotra was going to have when he made his Bollywood debut with filmmaker Karan Johar's coming-of-age romantic comedy Student of the Year in 2012. Over the last 13 years, the actor has left a mark with films across romance, action, thrillers, and war drama genres. As he now gears up for his 2025 release, Param Sundari, here's a look at the highlights of his cinematic journey so far. The Debut and Early Success Filmmaker Karan Johar, famous for launching star kids in Bollywood, launched Sidharth alongside Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan in Student of the Year (2012), a youthful drama that became a commercial success and positioned him as a promising newcomer. He followed it up with Hasee Toh Phasee (2014), a quirky rom-com where his chemistry with Parineeti Chopra was appreciated, and Ek Villain (2014), which marked his entry into the big league. Experimentation and Mixed Bag Phase After the big early success, Sidharth tested different genres over the next few years. In Brothers (2015), he attempted a high-intensity sports drama with superstar Akshay Kumar, as the film ended up as an average affair. Kapoor & Sons (2016), however, turned out to be a critical and commercial hit, showcasing him in an ensemble with a layered family drama. Films like Baar Baar Dekho (2016), A Gentleman (2017), Ittefaq (2017), and Aiyaary (2018) received mixed to negative responses, making this a challenging period for the actor. The Resurgence & Patriotic Turn Sidharth bounced back with Marjaavaan (2019), a massy romantic action film with seetimaar dialogues that connected with single-screen audiences. It was the biographical war drama, Shershaah (2021), that could have become the biggest box office success of the actor, but it was denied that chance due to its direct-to-digital release. It was still a game-changer for the actor as his portrayal of Captain Vikram Batra won widespread acclaim, bringing him critical respect, as he was hailed for delivering his career-best performance. Recent Works & Looking Ahead Post-Shershaah, Sidharth ventured into diverse territories. He shared screen with Ajay Devgn in the fantasy comedy-drama film Thank God (2022), which bombed at the box office, before he starred in a direct-to-digital release, Mission Majnu (2023), a patriotic spy thriller, and Yodha (2024), a high-octane action film. The actor's journey after the COVID-19 pandemic has hit a roadblock with no big success, barring Shershaah, which saved the day for him. The actor is now stepping into romantic comedy once again with Param Sundari (2025), co-starring Janhvi Kapoor. Billed as a breezy entertainer, the film is already generating buzz as a genre comeback for Sidharth after years of intense roles. The movie, from Dinesh Vijan's Maddock Films, is gearing up to hit the big screens on August 29, as a potential success for the actor. Across 13 years, Sidharth Malhotra's cinematic journey has had highs and lows, but what stands out is his resilience and ability to reinvent himself. From the candy-floss romance of Student of the Year to the grit of Shershaah, and now towards the playful charm of Param Sundari, he continues to remain a relevant and evolving presence in Bollywood. Going forward, the actor continues to experiment, as his next is a folk thriller, Vvan: Force of the Forrest, which releases next year. Stay tuned...

Mumbai, August 15 - One of the most anticipated Indian films of next year, Sunny Deol-fronted war action drama Border 2, is now set to arrive in theatres a day earlier than originally announced. Directed by Anurag Singh, the movie is the sequel to the iconic 1997 blockbuster Border. The announcement came on the occasion of Independence Day (August 15), when the makers unveiled the film's first-look poster, confirming a new January 22, 2026, release date. The striking poster features Sunny Deol in full army gear, seemingly amidst the chaos of battle, evoking strong patriotic emotions and nostalgia for the original film with "Hindustan Meri Jaan" playing in the background. With the new date, Border 2 will enjoy a Thursday release, kicking off an extended five-day Republic Day weekend. If audience reception is strong, trade analysts believe the film could register one of the biggest opening weekends ever for a Hindi film at the domestic box office. Sunny Deol will reprise his legendary role of Major Kuldip Singh Chandpuri, MVC, VSM, immortalised in the original. Joining him are Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, Ahan Shetty, and debutante Medha Rana in pivotal roles, promising a blend of seasoned star power and fresh energy.

Saiyaara Vs Dhadak Vs Student of The Year Vs Heropanti: Ahaan Pandey, Aneet Padda-starrer Takes The Biggest Opening For A Newcomer

Mumbai, July 19 - In a historic moment, Saiyaara, starring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, has stormed the box office with the biggest-ever opening day collection for a newcomer-led film, surpassing the benchmarks set by previous debutant hits Dhadak and Student of the Year. ## Directed by Mohit Suri, Saiyaara scored the opening of over 20 crores net, which is, as said, the biggest ever for a film featuring newcomers. The movie stunned the trade as it also faced the capacity issue; otherwise, the opening could have been even higher. ## The success of Saiyaara has set a new benchmark for debutant films in Bollywood. Not only has it proven the box office potential of fresh talent, but it also reflects the changing preferences of audiences who are open to new faces, provided the content and presentation resonate. ## Here's How Saiyaara Stacks Up Against Past Bollywood Newcomer-Centric Releases - (Saiyaara Vs Dhadak Vs Student of The Year Vs Heropanti)FilmDebutante ActorsDay 1 India Net CollectionSaiyaara (2025)Ahaan Pandey, Aneet Padda₹ 21.00 CrKis Kisko Pyaar Karoon (2018)Kapil Sharma, Sai Lokur₹ 10.20 CrDhadak (2018)Ishaan Khatter, Janhvi Kapoor₹ 8.71 CrStudent of The Year (2012)Sidharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt₹ 7.48 CrHero (2015)Sooraj Pancholi, Athiya Shetty₹ 6.90 CrHeropanti (2014)Tiger Shroff, Kriti Sanon₹ 6.55 Cr## (Note: The figures given in the table are without adjusting for inflation.) ## Stay tuned...
