'Janaki V vs State of Kerala' box office collection Day 4: Suresh Gopi starrer completes first weekend with Rs 3.8 Crore earning
The
Pravin Narayanan
directorial opened in cinemas on Thursday and began its run on a positive note, collecting Rs 1.1 crore on Day 1. However, the momentum slowed slightly on Friday, bringing in an estimated Rs 1 crore. Over the weekend, the film saw a further dip in numbers, earning Rs 90 lakh across Saturday and Sunday, indicating a decline in audience turnout, with the film earning an estimated Rs 89 lakh.
Starring
Suresh Gopi
in a lead role, the film also features Shruthi Ramachandran, Anupama Parameswaran, and
Divya Pillai
.
Set against the backdrop of a legal battle, JSK explores themes of justice, systemic failure, and institutional power, placing it firmly within a more serious and niche genre.
Despite its limited mass appeal, the film has managed to attract a steady urban audience, especially in Kerala's multiplex circuits. However, with its weekend numbers slipping, the film now faces a crucial Monday test. As is typical for courtroom dramas and content-driven films, strong word-of-mouth could play a vital role in helping it sustain itself during the weekdays.
While the film hasn't collapsed at the box office, it will need a solid performance on Day 5 to keep up with the competition from Hindi, Tamil and English film releases.

Fahadh Faasil spills tea on his equation with Kamal Haasan: ‘We crack jokes for two, three hours'
Fahadh Faasil is in the spotlight with the release of his recent film Maareesan. The actor who prefers to stay out of the limelight is rarely spotted meeting with other colleagues. However, he recently opened up about his equation with Kamal Haasan. Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter recently, Fahadh Faasil revealed how he and Kamal Haasan end up spending a good 2-3 hours cracking jokes whenever they meet up. Their topics of conversation are nowhere close to the films the Pushpa 2 star highlighted. He shared, 'When Kamal sir and I meet, we crack jokes for like two, three hours. It's got nothing to do with cinema. It's mostly about what's going on and around.' Is Fahadh Faasil curious about Kamal Haasan's style of acting? Moving on in the same interview, Fahadh Faasil shares how he has never once chatted with Kamal Haasan while asking about the latter's style of craft and acting. The Aavesham actor mentioned that he only prioritises spending time with the Tamil senior icon. In his words, 'There has never been a moment where I could ask him: 'Sir, how did you do that shot?' But spending time with him, I understand how he did it. I totally understand how he took a call, why he didn't do it and why he did it.' Fahadh Faasil spilled the beans on his retirement plans In another excerpt from the same interview, Fahadh Faasil had also opened up about his retirement plans, if he has any. The Malayalam actor referred to his recent visit to Barcelona, which gave him the idea of becoming a taxi driver. In his words, 'Yeah, yeah. Of course. We were in Barcelona a few months back. I still very much think about it. I think that'll only happen once people are done with me, you know?' He adde,d 'Jokes aside, but just the idea of driving someone from one place to another, I think that's a beautiful thing. At least you're witnessing someone's destination.'

War 2 Trailer: Hrithik Roshan And Jr NTR Lock Horns In The Name Of "India First". Bonus
The much-awaited trailer of War 2 released on Friday (July 25). Add some philosophical musings over self, identity, war, and service to a spectacular show of Hrithik vs Jr NTR in the stunning backdrop of foreign locations, and the trailer of War 2 will show how it's different from the Yash Raj Films' formula of a spy film. Breaking Down The Trailer Unlike Yash Raj Films' other spy movies, the trailer of War 2 opens on a contemplative note, where the two nameless warriors, played by, Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, introduce themselves through their starkly different ideas of a warrior. The only thread of commonality is they are fighting the war in the name of "India first." Hrithik Roshan AKA Kabir says he wants to become a shadow, dissolving his familial ties, love and identity. Jr NTR takes an oath that he will fight a battle that no one has ever fought. He will become a weapon of destruction. Either he will get destroyed or he will kill - there's no second way about it for Jr NTR. "Death before dishonour," says Hrithik Roshan. To this, Jr NTR replies, "Service before self." Kiara Advani enters the scene with some scene-stealing action stunts along with some romantic scenes with Hrithik Roshan. The stage is set. Kabir said at the end of War (2019), "The war is still on." As the battle intensifies, Colonel Sunil Luthra (played by Ashutosh Rana) reminds Kabir that they (he and Jr NTR) are warriors. But will the hero fall to save a warrior? The trailer ends with the famous saying about Karma from the Bhagavad Gita. Background The teaser of the film released in May. Sharing the teaser, Jr NTR wrote, "Double the fire. Double the fury. Pick your side. #War2Teaser out NOW. #War2 only in theatres from 14th August. Releasing in Hindi, Telugu and Tamil. #YRFSpyUniverse." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Yash Raj Films (@yrf) Hrihik Roshan shared an adorable post from the last day of the shoot on Instagram. An excerpt from his long note read, "Felt a mixed bag of emotions as the cameras stopped rolling for #War2. 149 days of relentless chase, action, dance, blood, sweat, injuries... and it was all WORTH IT!" View this post on Instagram A post shared by Hrithik Roshan (@hrithikroshan) The film will release in theatres on the eve of Independence Day, August 14. This is the first time Hrithik Roshan and JR NTR collaborated for a Hindi film. The film has been directed by Ayan Mukerji, mostly known for his romantic films.
