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...

Megastar Mammootty has once again proven why he is the master of the box office. After a year of experimental gambles that didn't quite hit the mark, his latest release, Kalamkaaval, has turned into a massive commercial success, breathing new life into the 2025 Malayalam box office. According to the latest trade estimates, Kalamkaaval has officially breached the ₹80 Crore mark worldwide, a feat that seemed challenging for the actor earlier this year. The film's performance in the overseas market, particularly the Gulf region, has been extraordinary. India Net Collection: ₹35.75 Cr India Gross Collection: ₹42.15 Cr Overseas Collection: ₹38.25 Cr Worldwide Total: ₹80.40 Cr (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Before Kalamkaaval, Mammootty took significant creative risks with two highly anticipated projects that unfortunately struggled to find an audience at the box office: Bazooka: The high-budget, stylish action thriller was expected to be a game-changer but faced a tepid response due to its complex narrative, failing to cross the ₹20 Cr mark domestically. Dominic and the Ladies Purse: Directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon, this quirky investigation thriller was praised for its style but remained a niche offering, underperforming significantly in both single screens and B-centers. Kalamkaaval marks Mammootty's triumphant return to a more rooted and intense avatar .The film's commercial success is largely driven by its strong emotional core, which has resonated deeply with family audiences, ensuring a massive turnout at the domestic box office. Furthermore, the film has displayed extraordinary overseas strength, with an international haul of ₹38.25 Cr—one of the highest for a Mammootty starrer in recent years—nearly matching its total Indian gross. Bolstered by exceptionally positive word of mouth since its opening day, the project has maintained a steady grip over the box office, showing remarkable sustainability throughout the weekdays and solidifying its status as a certified Super Hit. Although Kalamkaaval has achieved a stellar worldwide gross of ₹80.4 Cr, the road to the elite ₹100 Crore Club now presents a steep challenge. Its steady momentum faces a significant hurdle this Thursday with the high-voltage arrival of the Pan-India spectacle, Vrusshabha. As this epic is set to seize the lion's share of premium screens across Kerala and the overseas belt, the resulting screen crunch makes bridging the remaining ₹19.6 Cr gap a difficult task. With the festive focus shifting toward the new Christmas release, reaching the century-mark milestone has become a highly demanding prospect for the Megastar starrer

Mumbai, December 23 - Director James Cameron's Avatar: Fire and Ash had a good hold on Monday at the Indian box office. The sci-fi epic grossed nearly 11 crores, pushing its 4-day total to 92.50 crores gross (76 crores net) in India. The third instalment had a good opening weekend given the circumstances, but as compared to Avatar: The Way of Water, the opening was a bit underwhelming with 82 crores gross. As said, the film's collection was affected by Dhurandhar, which is clearly dominating the box office at the moment. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) However, Avatar 3 managed to hold nearly 50% collection on its opening day on Monday, which indicates positive word of mouth and popularity of the Avatar franchise. On Tuesday, the film is showing good hold again, and will top 100 crores gross mark at the end of the day. With the Christmas and New Year holidays ahead, Avatar 3 should hold well in the coming days. Strong footfalls in premium formats such as IMAX and 3D played a key role in driving collections, with metro cities contributing heavily to the overall numbers. Fire & Ash is likely to finish its opening week in the range of 125+ crores gross, which is a good total. The trade is optimistic that the movie will continue to perform decently, even though it will fall well short of Way of Water, which nearly grossed 500 crores in India. Stay tuned...

Mumbai, December 22 - Telugu veteran actor Nandamuri Balakrishna's much-anticipated sequel Akhanda 2: Thaandavam, which was released amid a big hype in Telugu states, has failed to make any impact at the Hindi box office, turning out to be a massive disaster in the North Indian market. Despite strong pre-release hype in Telugu states and the success of the first Akhanda, the Hindi-dubbed version of the sequel was a non-starter and ended up as one of the biggest dubbed sequels. The film opened to extremely low numbers in Hindi circuits, with collections remaining negligible throughout its short theatrical run. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) After the release of Akhanda in 2021, the film generated hype with its limited theatrical run and on OTT, presumably setting the base for a sequel to stand a real chance to perform at the Hindi box office. However, due to delayed release and Dhurandhar phenomena, Akhanda 2 found negligible audience in North India. Directed by Boyapti Srinu, Akhanda 2 has always wrapped up its Hindi theatrical run with daily collection falling below 1 lakh. In 10 days so far, action drama has grossed around 85 lakh, heading towards finishing under 1 crore in Hindi. Reportedly, the makers spent 2-3 crores on print and publicity of the film in the Hindi belt, which the movie has failed to recover. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) A major reason behind the poor performance is the lack of connect with the Hindi audience. While Balakrishna enjoys a cult following in Telugu states, his brand of high-octane mass cinema has struggled to translate into success in North India. Negative reviews and word of mouth further dented the film's prospects, leading to sharp drops in collection. The disappointing Hindi performance stands in stark contrast to the film's expectations, especially considering its grand scale, heavy budget, and sequel factor. Even in the all-India context, despite crossing the 100 crores mark, Akhanda 2 has underperformed relative to its cost, making recovery almost impossible for distributors. Stay tuned...

Mumbai, December — Director Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar, headlined by Ranveer Singh, has scripted history at the worldwide box office. The high-octane spy action thriller has become the highest-grossing Indian film of 2025 worldwide, outperforming Rishab Shetty's Kantara Chapter 1 (852 crores gross). (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Dhurandhar's extraordinary theatrical run has pushed its worldwide gross beyond 850 crore in 17 days, cementing its position at the top of the 2025 box office charts. With robust footfalls in India and a phenomenal response in overseas markets, the film has shown rare consistency, registering strong weekday numbers even after record-breaking weekends. In India, the Aditya Dhar directorial has benefited from repeat audience turnout, backed by extremely positive word of mouth. It has performed exceptionally well in both mass and multiplex centres, and the trend suggests it is unlikely to stop anytime soon. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Overseas, Dhurandhar has delivered one of the strongest performances ever for a Hindi-language action thriller. Markets such as North America, the UK, and Australia have played a crucial role in pushing the film past every other film. It is the highest-grossing Indian title of the year at the overseas box office. The milestone marks a defining moment for actor Ranveer Singh as well as for director Aditya Dhar, whose vision and scale have translated into both critical appreciation and box office dominance. With its sustained run and minimal drop-offs, Dhurandhar is now eyeing the next major benchmark, which is 1000 crores global haul. As 2025 draws to a close, Dhurandhar stands tall as the undisputed box office king of the year, redefining the commercial potential of Indian action cinema on the global stage. With upcoming films unlikely to make this much, Dhurandhar will finish the year as the biggest Indian grosser of the year. Stay tuned...

Mumbai, December 22 - Director Aditya Dhar's spy action thriller Dhurandhar has shattered a major record by becoming the highest-grossing Indian film of the year at the overseas box office, beating superstar Rajinikanth's gangster action drama, Coolie. The Ranveer Singh-starrer has been a word-of-mouth sensation, not just in India but also internationally. The film has grossed approximately 186 crores overseas through the third Sunday (17 days), outgrossing Coolie's entire overseas run of 180.50 crores and becoming the number 1 Indian blockbuster. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The trade was bullish on the film, but it didn't expect it to become this big internationally. Dhurandhar started on a decent note, but became a beast after word of mouth spread like wildfire.

Mumbai, December 22 - It has been more than a decade since James Cameron's Avatar franchise kicked off in 2009, and it still carries that fire when it comes to the box office as the latest instalment - Avatar: Fire and Ash just broke the bank at the worldwide weekend box office. The third film in Cameorn's planned 5-part sci-fi epic has one of the biggest openings for a 2025 title, even when it couldn't match the opening of its predecessor - Avatar: Way of Water. Touted as the darkest chapter of the franchise yet, Fire and Ash delivered a worldwide opening weekend of $347.30 million. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Avatar: Fire & Ash has had the third biggest global opening of 2025, behind only Zootopia 2 ($560.30 million) and China's animated title Ne Zha 2 ($431.20 million). In comparison to the other Avatar movies, the latest instalment lands in between Avatar ($232 million) and Avatar: Way of Water ($441.70 million). The film's domestic (North America) opening weekend lended at $89.20 million, which took a big dip from Way of Water's $134.10 million launch but better than the original Avatar's $77 million debut. Overseas, the film minted $258.10 million, against Way of Water's $307.60 million. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) China was the biggest international market for the film in its opening weekend, with $57.6 million, followed by France with $21.4 million, and Germany with $18 million. In India, the sci-fi epic debuted with $9.2 million (82+ crores gross) over the 3-day weekend, which is a good collection but significantly down from Way of Water's 157 crore gross opening weekend. Avatar films are known for their longevity at the global box office, and the trade is already on the job to understand how far it can go. While the trade is ruling out the $2 billion club, the movie is still expected to make $1.5+ billion worldwide, which is roughly 4x its budget. Stay tuned...
