This bone-chilling horror film has 8 parts, made on budget of Rs 1817 crores, earned Rs 17400 crores, its last part is coming in..., movie name is...
Here we are talking about 2013's The Conjuring, where real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren (played by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga) helped the Perron family deal with a demonic presence in their Rhode Island farmhouse. Directed by James Wan, the film was lauded for its suspense, emotional depth, and classic horror style, sparking global success.
The Conjuring 2, which was released in 2016, shifted to London, where the Warrens investigated the Enfield poltergeist. The film introduced the demon Valak, later known as The Nun. Rich in atmosphere and character development, it deepened the emotional bond between the Warrens while expanding the horror universe.
The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, which made its debut in 2021, took a legal turn, portraying the real 1981 bone-chilling trial of Arne Johnson, where demonic possession was used as a defense for murder. While stylistically different, it explored the psychological toll of evil and added a thriller element to the franchise. What were the other parts that were connected to The Conjuring universe?
Alongside the main Conjuring trilogy, the cinematic universe expanded with chilling spin-offs that deepened its supernatural mythology. The Annabelle series, Annabelle (2014), Annabelle: Creation (2017), and Annabelle Comes Home (2019), focused on the sinister doll locked away in the Warrens' artifact room. The Nun (2018) took viewers to 1950s Romania to explore the dark origins of Valak, the demonic nun introduced in The Conjuring 2. How much collection has been done by the franchise?
Collectively, these films, which were made under Rs 1817 crores, amassed Rs 17400 crores, making the Conjuring Universe one of the most successful and enduring horror franchises in cinematic history. What was the last case of the Warrens?
Now, the final chapter awaits, which is The Conjuring: Last Rites. As it is said to close the book on Ed and Lorraine's on-screen journey. This time, they confront the dark forces behind the infamous Smurl haunting of the 1980s. Promising emotional stakes, spiritual warfare, and a culmination of all that came before, Last Rites aims to be a haunting farewell to the universe that started with something very sinister. According to the trailer, it is expected that this part is going to become one of the most bone-chilling ride amongst all. The Conjuring: Last Rites, is slated for release on September 5, 2025.

Saiyaara box office collection day 20: Aditya Chopra predicted Ahaan Panday, Aneet Padda's film would earn Rs 100 cr; it's earned more than three times as much
Mohit Suri's romantic drama Saiyaara, starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, was never meant to be a Yash Raj Films project. Aditya Chopra's banner is best known for delivering iconic love stories like his late legendary father Yash Chopra's Kabhi Kabhie (1976), Chandni (1989), Lamhe (1991), Dil To Pagal Hai (1997), Veer-Zaara (2004), and Aditya's own Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), Mohabattein (2000), and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008). On the other hand, Suri, who's a product of Mahesh Bhatt and Mukesh Bhatt's Vishesh Films, is renowned for helming Aashiqui 2 (2013), Ek Villain (2014), and Half Girlfriend (2017). But their combination has wielded great results, as Saiyaara has crossed the Rs 500 crore milestone at the worldwide box office and the Rs 300 crore mark at the domestic box office in less than three weeks. It's the highest-grossing romantic film of India, and also the highest-grossing Indian movie starring newcomers. On Wednesday (day 20), it added another Rs 2 crore to the Indian box office, a slight dip from its Tuesday earnings of Rs 2.5 crore. The current box office collection of Saiyaara in India stands at Rs 306.6 crore, as per Sacnilk. In an interview with PTI, Suri revealed that Aditya Chopra had predicted Saiyaara's success, yet probably not to this historic extent. In fact, the producer predicted the film would make Rs 100 crore right after watching just the rough edit. 'I didn't really fall for that I think. I was not too sure. I was still like, 'Let me edit the film. Let me bring it down,'' said Suri. Interestingly, Saiyaara was initially being developed as Aashiqui 3 by Bhushan Kumar's T-Series. However, since Suri wanted to take time in finishing his script, the movie then went to Anurag Basu, who's developing the threequel with Kartik Aaryan and Sreeleela. 'Once there was no sequel pressure or of a star cast which had an opening number to live up to, I stopped caring about the commerce. And I just went and made a film,' said Suri, adding, 'If I was making a sequel, or a franchise, I would be somewhere playing to a commerce like 'Let's make it better than Aashiqui 2. Let's make the music better'. I didn't do that. I did what's best for the film. It was such a liberating process.'

It also serves as a launchpad for Ahaan, the first cousin of Ananya Panday and the nephew of Chunky Panday. Both the actors were strategically kept away from promotions, which seems to have paid rich dividends. 'I genuinely felt that if we arm these kids with a story, a narrative, a song, then they have a better fighting chance rather than just the way they look or how they are photographed,' Suri reasons.

With no big releases scheduled for this weekend, films Mahavatar Narsimha and Saiyaara have another week to add to their collections. The films might get affected in the Independence weekend with two big films hitting the big screen: Hrithik Roshan's War 2 and Rajinikanth's Coolie. Meanwhile, Saiyaara has crossed Rs 300 crore mark.
