Thug Life vs Housefull 5 Opening Weekend Box Office: Akshay Kumar's comedy dominates Kamal Haasan starrer by a Rs 50 crore margin

Thug Life and Housefull 5 locked horns with one another over the Bakri Eid weekend at the Indian box office. Thug Life released a day earlier than Housefull 5 and grossed Rs 81 crore worldwide over its extended 4 day weekend. Housefull 5 has emerged a clear winner grossing Rs 131 crore worldwide in just 3 days. Let's break down the box office of both films in further detail. Thug Life grossed slightly over Rs 36 crore worldwide on its opening day. Due to poor word of mouth, the film saw a striking drop over the subsequent days. It barely managed to double its opening day over the weekend and that is disastrous. The 4 day India collections of Thug Life stand at an abysmal Rs 40 crore while the film has brought a better, although poor, Rs 41 crore from international markets. The movie is unlikely to touch Rs 100 crore worldwide in its lifetime and that is tragic, given that big Tamil movies are grossing that much on their very first day. Infact, Leo, in advance, grossed more than what Thug Life will, in the full run. Housefull 5 opened to good worldwide collections of a little over Rs 38 crore. It grossed Rs 26.50 crore (Rs 22 crore net) in India, and managed around Rs 12 crore from international markets. The film went from strength to strength over the weekend, growing on Bakri Eid and then also on Sunday. The India gross total of Housefull 5 after 3 days is Rs 95 crore, while it has grossed around Rs 36.50 crores internationally. The weekend collections are the highest for an Akshay Kumar starrer as a lead hero, be it in India, overseas or worldwide. Housefull 5 is holding well in India on Monday. The collections internationally are expected to show bigger drops because the driver of the collections of Housefull 5 over the weekend were the Gulf countries and the Gulf market is more frontloaded. Had it been North America leading the numbers, one could have expected better holds for the comic caper. Regardless, it has done well for itself. The Weekend Box Office Comparison Of Thug Life And Housefull 5 Is As Under Thug Life and Housefull 5 play in theatres near you, now. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates on both movies.

Mindy Kaling explains her on-screen absence: 'I'm superstitious, but I'm coming back'

If you've been missing Mindy Kaling on your screens lately, you're not alone—and according to Kaling herself, she's been feeling the absence too. The actress recently spoke publicly about stepping away from acting after a frank discussion with The Hollywood Reporter for the Paley Media Council Series on Thursday, June 5. Now 45 and mother to three, Kaling embarks on a new chapter—both in her life and career—while remaining deeply invested in the tales she brings to the screen. Fans of Never Have I Ever have been wondering for years why the co-creator ever declined to make a cameo on the series, particularly since it's based on her very own cultural background as an Indian American raised in Southern California. Kaling finally delivered an explanation that's half practical—and half superstition. A show literally about an Indian American family in Southern California, and if I wasn't on that—what's wrong with me?" she said. "I think there is a part of me that feels a little superstitious. I'm like, 'these seem to have gone well and I'm not in them so maybe I'll wait.'" Kaling explained she's already considering hanging it up in front of the camera, and possibly doing so while sitting in the director's chair as well. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo "I would love to do that again," she said of directing and acting at the same time. "That's the thing that maybe in the next couple of years, when I release a couple of other things that are further up the pipeline, that would be something that would be enjoyable to do again. It's apparent that Kaling hasn't lost her passion for acting—she's just patiently waiting for the right time and right project. And although her superstition might have had her off-screen for some time, fans can be certain that her comeback is imminent.

'Thug Life' box office collection day 5 (live): The Kamal Haasan starrer slows down after weekend surge

Kamal Haasan starrer 'Thug Life' was released on June 5 with high expectations. But reviews for Mani Ratnam 's directorial have been mixed, with criticism aimed at its pacing and screenplay. However, the multi-starrer drama opened with a solid ₹15.5 crore net collection on its first day across India, with Tamil Nadu contributing the lion's share at ₹13.35 crore. The Hindi and Telugu versions added modestly with ₹0.65 crore and ₹1.5 crore respectively. The film's star power and initial curiosity helped pull good numbers on opening day, setting a promising tone. Thug Life Movie Review Dips at the box office after day 1 However, the momentum dipped sharply on Day 2, with collections dropping by over 50% to ₹7.15 crore as per Sacnilk. Tamil Nadu again led the way, bringing in ₹6.35 crore. Day 3 saw a slight bounce back with ₹7.75 crore, showing some positive word-of-mouth. But Day 4 dipped again to ₹6.5 crore, signaling a weekend slowdown. By the end of the fourth day, the film had amassed roughly ₹36.9 crore. Day 5 sees sharp decline On Day 5, the numbers declined significantly to just ₹1.13 crore. The occupancy rates in Tamil Nadu's 2D theaters reflected this, with morning and afternoon shows hovering around 13-14%, and zero occupancy for evening and night shows. This drop suggests the film's appeal is mainly among hardcore fans, struggling to attract a wider audience beyond the initial days. Overall, 'Thug Life' has collected ₹38.03 crore net in India in five days. The film's future box office success will rely on how well it performs in the coming weeks, especially outside Tamil Nadu. Impressive team 'Thug Life', which marked the reunion of Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam after 38 years, also features Silambarasan, Trisha, Nassar, Ashok Selvan, Abhirami, Aishwarya Lekshmi, and Gautham Karthik among others. AR Rahman scored the music, while the cinematography was handled by Ravi K Chandran.
