F1 box office collection day 1: Brad Pitt's racing drama outpaces Top Gun Maverick but stalls behind Mission Impossible – The Final Reckoning, earns Rs 5.25 crore
Summer has officially arrived, and so has Brad Pitt, making a high-octane return with his much-anticipated film F1: The Movie, which opened to impressive numbers across Indian theatres. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the film earned approximately Rs 5.25 crore net on its first day (Friday), across all languages. The English 2D version posted an overall occupancy of 27.82% on its opening day. The film began modestly with 13.93% occupancy during the morning shows, gained momentum to reach 27.14% in the afternoon, rose further to 28.35% in the evening, and peaked at 41.84% during the night shows. Regionally, Chennai led with a strong 43% occupancy, followed closely by Hyderabad at 40.75% and Kochi at 31.75%. Surprisingly, key metropolitan markets like Mumbai and Delhi lagged behind, recording only 22.25% and 20.5% occupancy, respectively. Among the premium formats, English 4DX registered the highest occupancy across all languages and formats at 68%, followed by English IMAX at 58.57%, and English ICE at 39.94%. Also Read | F1 movie review: Film leaves you wanting more Formula 1, and more Brad Pitt While F1: The Movie is generating significant buzz and audience anticipation, it still fell short of surpassing the opening day record of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, which had collected Rs 16.5 crore on day one. However, Pitt's latest outing did outperform other recent major Hollywood releases in India. It beat Karate Kid Legends, starring Jackie Chan, which opened with Rs 1.75 crore, and his own previous film Bullet Train, which collected Rs 0.45 crore on its first day. The film features Brad Pitt as a veteran race-car driver who returns to Formula One after three decades to revive a struggling team and save his former teammate's legacy. Directed by Joseph Kosinski, best known for the global blockbuster Top Gun: Maverick, F1 has already surpassed Top Gun: Maverick's Indian opening day numbers, which stood at Rs 4.89 crore. With largely positive reviews and soaring audience interest, all eyes are now on how F1: The Movie performs in the coming days. However, its box office run will be tested by competition from regional releases such as Sitaare Zameen Par, Maa, and Kannappa.

CM Punk Appears As 'Dr. Of Thuganomics'; Parodies John Cena With 'Punkanomics' Rap: WATCH
Last Updated: CM Punk retaliated against John Cena on Friday Night SmackDown by mimicking Cena's old-school "Doctor of Thuganomics" gimmick. CM Punk decided to go bar-for-bar with John Cena on Friday Night SmackDown tonight, in classic 'Thuganomics' fashion, as retaliation for the reverse-pipebomb gimmick from last week. It was just a week ago when Cena slammed Punk through a table and delivered a scathing promo that parodied Punk's iconic 2011 'pipe bomb"—the very one delivered after Cena himself had been put through a table following a match with R-Truth. Well, it's always an eye for an eye with CM Punk, who responded in kind by copying Cena's 'Doctor of Thuganomics" gimmick on this week's go-home episode of SmackDown in Saudi Arabia. 👊 PunkLife 👊THIS IS BASIC PUNKANOMICS! 🔥 — WWE (@WWE) June 28, 2025 After Cena made his usual entrance, his old Basic Thuganomics entrance music played, and out came CM Punk. Punk was dressed similar to how Cena would dress as the Dr of Thuganomics about 20 years ago, and grabbed a mic on his way into the ring. Punk then proceeded to cut a promo on Cena in the form of a rap. Punk's rap took shots at Cena moving in slow motion, burying more wrestlers than The Undertaker, fixing his bald spot, and somehow being more problematic than Hulk Hogan. He said I'm a problem, he called me a player hater, let's be honest, John Cena's buried more talent than the Undertaker. That's why he's the champ and went and lost all his respects, but John I get it, I'd retire too if this place rehired my ex. If you never said your prayers, ate your vitamins or fixed your bald spot, you wouldn't be a pro wrestler, you'd be a Boston Mall Cop. But hey, he gets good movie roles that much is a fact, and then you see Batista act and you realise John ain't that. Same shirt, same hat, man, your persona stayed tragic. You're like a fish bellied white Hulk Hogan but somehow more problematic. . @CMPunk just left @JohnCena speechless… 👀 — WWE (@WWE) June 28, 2025 For someone who started off the night with boos after issuing an apology during the WWE Night of Champions Kickoff show for his tweet years ago about Saudi Arabia, Punk surely ended the night well, with the crowds singing ' Cult of Personality' in unison as he left.
