Mumbai, March 10 - Ajay Devgn-led supernatural thriller Shaitaan ends the opening weekend collection with close to 54 crores net which is a very good total and the second biggest for a Bollywood film of 2024 after Hrithik Roshan-fronted Fighter. ## Shaitaan sees a jump of around 5-10% on its first Sunday with an estimated 20-21 crores net collection. This takes the three-day total to around 54 crores. The movie is performing well in multiplexes as well as single screens which is a good sign. ## As said, the audience's word of mouth is positive for the film and it may come into play on the crucial Monday hold.

This move marks a significant strategic shift for Netflix.## Furthermore, Netflix is set to globally stream a highly anticipated heavyweight boxing match between YouTuber Jake Paul and former undisputed champion Mike Tyson. This is a major milestone for the streaming giant. ## During a recent press conference, UFC president Dana White commented on the possibility of working with Netflix. ## "In my opinion, Netflix should have gotten into live sports a long time ago," White said. "They're a bit behind the curve, but they're a powerhouse. Look at the global reach they have... You guys saw that show Reacher I posted about? I love it! I generally hate TV and rarely watch shows or movies anymore, but Reacher is fantastic. ## The beauty is, I can watch it whenever I want - at home, next week, whenever. Live sports, like this event tonight, are different. You have to watch them as they happen. As these massive streaming services continue to grow, getting involved in live sports is inevitable. Let's just say, I'm sure we'll be talking to them when our TV deal is up for renewal, along with everyone else." ## The streamer is leaning more into sports, another tactic in boosting its audience and holding onto subscribers. While they haven't gone all-in on live sports yet, their recent moves suggest they see potential in the market." ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...
