Chaos at the box office: Scary Movie postponed; Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, Peddi, He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe face screen-sharing issues

-
The first Friday of June will see several films releasing in cinemas like Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, Bandar and Ram Charan-starrer Peddi. Two Hollywood films were also scheduled for release – He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe and Scary Movie. Bollywood Hungama has learned that the latter won’t be able to make it to cinemas this Friday, June 5. An exhibitor told Bollywood Hungama, “We don’t know what the reason is for the delay. It may be due to too many films this week. Last week’s Obsession is also going strong and it’ll take up some shows. Or it could be due to censorship issues. It now remains to be seen whether Scary Movie arrives next Friday, June 12.” Meanwhile, as expected, the screen-sharing issues have cropped up between Peddi in the Hindi-speaking markets and Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. The former, which also stars Janhvi Kapoor, releases in cinemas on June 4. A trade source told us, “The non-national multiplexes have thrown open the bookings of Peddi. The issue ha...

BREAKING: Dhurandhar The Revenge beats highly anticipated Hollywood film Ready Or Not 2 overseas; brings Bahar to Mumbai’s Bahar cinema

-

Dhurandhar The Revenge is unstoppable; the film was expected to break records, and yet, the trade and industry are stunned by how it's performing at the box office. On Saturday, March 21, it set a new record by collecting Rs. 100 crore in a day. On Saturday, March 21, the film created history by collecting Rs. 100 crore in a single day. And now, its dominance is being felt in the Overseas market as well, where it has managed to outgross a much-awaited Hollywood sequel.

According to a report in Deadline, Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, a highly anticipated sequel, opened with $9 million. On the other hand, Dhurandhar The Revenge collected a huge $10.5 million. Dhurandhar’s sequel was always set to open big, considering the response of the first part, which was released in December 2025. However, Ready Or Not 2: Here I Come, released by Fox Searclight Pictures, should have ideally opened bigger in foreign territories, considering the star cast (Sarah Michelle Gellar, Elijah Wood and Kathryn Newton). The fact that Dhurandhar The Revenge has gone past it only underlines the scale of its global craze.

Dhurandhar 2 brings Bahar to Bahar Cinema

Meanwhile, residents of Vile Parle East and Andheri East in Mumbai got a pleasant surprise as the popular Bahar Cinema will play four shows of Dhurandhar The Revenge on Sunday, March 22. This has never happened before since it commenced operations in November 2010.

According to an exhibition source, “Due to certain regulations of the commercial establishments in the cinema building, Bahar is allowed to play shows only after 5:00 pm. But with Dhurandhar The Revenge, they have made an exception. On Sunday, the film had four shows, at 8:00 am, 12:30 pm, 5:00 pm and 9:30 pm.”

Bollywood Hungama was the first one to report that Dhurandhar The Revenge’s post-midnight and early morning shows have been planned by several cinemas. As the film was released and went on a record-breaking spree, more theatres joined the bandwagon, probably for the first time. Kasturba Cinema in Malad hosted a 2:30 am show, while Woodland Cinemas in Virar, near Mumbai, arranged a 7:45 am screening on Sunday for eager moviegoers. Both shows were nearly sold out.

Dhurandhar The Revenge is produced by Jyoti Deshpande of Jio Studios and Aditya Dhar and Lokesh Dhar of B62 Studios. It is written and directed by Aditya Dhar.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
