Pinkvilla Predicts: The opening day collection of Housefull 5, Sitaare Zameen Par, Maa, Metro In Dino and Saiyaara
Bollywood gears up for an exciting late summer. The upcoming slate of films promises a mix of star power, fresh faces, and diverse genres. From comic capers to heartfelt dramas, here's our box office prediction for some of the most anticipated releases in the next 50 days.
Housefull 5 Looks To Make A Box Office Splash With The Help Of Healthy Spot-Bookings
The Akshay Kumar led comic caper with a murder twist, set to release on June 6 2025, has generated intrigue especially after the makers have confirmed that they are releasing two climaxes in theatres with two different killers. The ensemble is predicted to take a good Rs 23 crore net start on its opening day. Having said that, more was expected from the movie before the advance bookings began.
The advance bookings have opened on a strictly decent note and that means that the spot-bookings have to be strong in order to manage the predicted figure.
Sitaare Zameen Par Gears Up To Take A Modest Start For Aamir Khan's Standards
Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par, slated for a release shortly after Housefull 5, is expected to open at Rs 10.25 crore net on its first day. It is a very modest number for an Aamir Khan starrer. For an Aamir-led project, there's a benchmark of box office that fans and trade analysts expect. While the Genelia Deshmukh co-starrer doesn't seem to be meeting the commercial expectations so far, things can always change closer to the film's release.
Aamir Khan hasn't had a good box office run for a while and fans will be hoping that this movie changes things for the actor who has delivered numerous memorable films in his career as a lead hero spanning across 5 decades.
Maa Shall Aim To Take A Reasonable Start, With Some Significant Help From Shaitaan's Hit Theatrical Run
Kajol's Maa, set to hit theaters on June 27, 2025, is poised for a Rs 4.25 crore opening day; a reasonable start for a film in its genre. The project, which has a thematic connection to the successful Shaitaan, is banking on Kajol's emotional heft and star power to draw audiences.
The first unit has been appreciated and now we need to see how the other units are received. One must not ignore the fact that Aamir Khan's film will also be holding onto screens in its second week.
Anurag Basu Will Look To Get Ample Support From 'Metros' For His Next
Anurag Basu's Metro.. In Dino is creating waves with its first song, which has been warmly received by audiences. If this momentum carries forward, the film could open to a decent Rs 7 crore on its first day. The anthology format, coupled with Anurag Basu's knack for weaving emotional narratives, makes it a promising contender in the urban multiplex space.
Ahaan Panday And Aneet Padda Will Hope To Recieve Audience Love
Marking the Bollywood debut of Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, Mohit Suri's Saiyaara is generating significant buzz with its intense teaser. The film, set for a July 18, 2025 release, is on course for an opening north of Rs 3.5 crore. As the film release draws nearer, we shall be more clear in making a prediction with higher accuracy.
Pinkvilla Box Office Prediction (As On 2nd June, 2025)

Housefull 5 23 crore
Sitaare Zameen Par 10.25 crore

Dakota Johnson Steps Out In A Sheer Black Dress After Breakup With Chris Martin
Last Updated: Following her breakup with Coldplay's Chris Martin, Dakota Johnson stepped out in New York City in a sheer body-hugging dress. Fans call it her 'revenge dressing era.' Actor Dakota Johnson has been making headlines following her split with Coldplay's Chris Martin after dating for eight years. The actor was recently spotted at the NBC Studios at Rockefeller Plaza in New York where she appeared on the latest episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers to promote her film – Materialists. For her appearance on the talk show, the actor opted for a black body-hugging sheer ensemble. Known for her effortlessly chic and confident style, Dakota Johnson pulled off this risque outfit like a pro. The actor paired the black sheer ensemble with minimal accessories to let the outfit do all the talking. In what can be termed as Dakota's revenge dressing era, she stepped out with panache. DAKOTA MAYI JOHNSON TODAY OH MY GOODNESS — ju 🕸 (@dakotasrare) June 5, 2025 Wearing a sheer, figure-hugging bodysuit by London-based designer Nensi Dojaka, Dakota Johnson wore the long-sleeved Renee bodysuit (£530, approximately Rs 61,499) that featured Dojaka's signature anatomical cut-outs and precise paneling. With its sheer detail, the bodysuit was more mesmerizing than flashy, the look drew you in without screaming for attention. Dakota paired it with the matching Mila tulle midi skirt (£700, approximately Rs 81,225), which moved behind her like a soft breeze, adding a hint of romance to the otherwise sultry ensemble. A strapless black bodysuit worn underneath subtly toned things down, striking the perfect balance between bold and refined. As the newly appointed global ambassador for luxury jeweller Roberto Coin, Dakota kept her accessories refreshingly minimal, just dainty earrings and a sleek pair of pointed Saint Laurent Raven sling backs in black. Her glam stayed true to her signature: pin-straight hair, a classic fringe grazing her brows, and an effortless air that's unmistakably Dakota. Dakota and Chris have been romantically linked since 2017. The couple chose to keep their relationship mostly out of the spotlight. Still, they made occasional headlines with rare public outings, like Dakota accompanying Chris on his Coldplay Music of the Spheres tour stop in India earlier this year, or the pair being spotted leaving a Malibu yoga class together in May this year. Despite periodic breakup rumours over the years, insiders have consistently reassured fans that things remained strong between the two. However, a recent exclusive source report from PEOPLE mentions that this might be their 'final' breakup. tags : dakota johnson fashion lifestyle Location : Delhi, India, India First Published: June 07, 2025, 09:08 IST News lifestyle Dakota Johnson Steps Out In A Sheer Black Dress After Breakup With Chris Martin

Housefull 5 Box Office Collection Day 1: Akshay Kumar's Film Gets A Flying Start, Mints Rs 23 Crore
New Delhi: Akshay Kumar is back on the big screen with Housefull 5, the latest installment in the popular comedy franchise. After a rather difficult 2024, which saw multiple underperformers like Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Khel Khel Mein, Sarfira and Singham Again, the actor's 2025 also started on a disappointing note with Sky Force failing to draw crowds. While Kesari 2 saw some success, it didn't match Akshay's previous box office highs. What Housefull 5, directed by Tarun Mansukhani and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, marks Akshay's return to the comedy genre. The film released on June 6 and minted Rs 23 crore nett at the domestic box office. This made it his fourth-biggest opening, after Mission Mangal (Rs 29.16 crore), Sooryavanshi (Rs 26.29 crore) and Gold (Rs 25.25 crore). The film's first-day earnings surpassed the opening day collection of Akshay Kumar's previous release, Kesari Chapter 2, which made Rs 7.75 crore. Housefull 5 was released in two versions: Housefull 5A and Housefull 5B. On Friday, Housefull 5A recorded an overall Hindi occupancy of 28.88%, with the night shows seeing the highest occupancy at 45.65%. Housefull 5B had an overall occupancy of 16%, with its night shows peaking at 27.18%. The film's box office performance is expected to grow over the weekend. Background Compared to Akshay's recent releases, the expectations are significantly higher. Kesari 2 opened with Rs 7.75 crore and wrapped its run at Rs 92 crore, while Khel Khel Mein, which clashed with Vedaa and Stree 2, opened with just Rs 5 crore. If early predictions hold, Housefull 5 will outperform both. The film is being screened widely, with over 5,000 screens globally. Major multiplex chains are reportedly running up to 18-20 shows per day, and some theatres are showing it 21 times daily. Morning occupancy was mixed, ranging between 5.5% and 9%, but it is expected to rise during evening shows. With a reported budget of Rs 225 crore, distributors estimate the film will need to earn around ₹450 crore to break even. Housefull 5 has not been released in multiple languages but has two versions, possibly for technical reasons or edits. The ensemble cast includes Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jackie Shroff, Nana Patekar, Fardeen Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Shreyas Talpade, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri and others. The story revolves around the chaos following the death of a billionaire aboard a luxury cruise ship. Tarun Mansukhani, who previously directed Dostana in 2008, returns to direction after over a decade. In A Nutshell Housefull 5, starring Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh, had a strong start at the domestic box office, earning Rs 23 crore on its opening day. With multiple underperformers behind him, Housefull 5 can be a potential turning point for Akshay Kumar's box office journey.

India's most expensive film was rejected by Dharmendra and Hema Malini, Amitabh Bachchan got the lead role, the film became superhit, earned Rs…, lead actress was…
Every year, Bollywood produces a variety of films, each with its budget and cast. While filmmakers research industry trends and what consumers want, forecasting whether a film will be a success or a flop at the box office remains a difficult task. Today, we'll look at the story of a classic film from 1980. Interestingly, it was originally planned with a different cast but ran into various production issues before making it to the big screen. Let's find out about the film. The Action-Thriller Film… Here we're talking about Shaan , a film directed by Ramesh Sippy and scripted by Salim-Javed , following the success of the mega blockbuster Sholay . Ramesh Sippy was eager to replicate the success of Sholay with Shaan. Sunil Dutt , on the other hand, played the role that was originally offered to Sanjeev Kumar , Bindiya Goswami, to Hema Malini and Shashi Kapoor , to Dharmendra . Shaan was reportedly rejected by the original Sholay cast, which did not include Amitabh Bachchan , due to scheduling conflicts and some creative differences. The Box-Office Reception and Multi-Starrer Cast Of Shaan Shaan, released in December 1980, became the most expensive Indian film created up to that point. Sunil Dutt, Shashi Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, Shatrughan Sinha , Raakhee Gulzar, Parveen Babi, Bindiya Goswami, Mazhar Khan, and Kulbhushan Kharbanda played the crucial parts. Shaan had an average box office performance upon its initial release, but did well in reruns. Shaan, which was produced on a budget of Rs 4.2 crores , reportedly grossed Rs 12.5 crores at the box office. Amitabh Bachchan, along with Bindiya Goswami, rose to prominence as a result of their performances in the film. However, things took a dramatic turn for Bindiya when she decided to take a break from performing after getting divorced from her unsuccessful marriage with actor Vinod Mehra and she later eloped with film director JP Dutta because their families were not ready for their romance. This action-thriller was not able to magnify its success factor just like Shaan but due to its intriguing storyline and soothing music tracks this film earned cult status for the masses.
