'War 2' box office collection day 1 (LIVE): The Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR starrer off to a great start, but Rajinikanth's 'Coolie' dominates at the moment
'War 2' has finally released in theatres and the film has got mixed reviews by the audience so far but it is off to a great start. The film is facing a huge competition from Rajinikanth 's 'Coolie' which has also released today and this is one of the biggest clashes of movies. 'War 2' starring Hrithik Roshan , Jr NTR and Kiara Advani has released in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. While the pre-release ticket sales was not as high, just as the Telugu markets opened, the numbers from the advance bookings grew due to Jr NTR's presence as he's a huge star there. Thus, the film may be expected to do well in Telugu and Hindi both. It had collected Rs 16 crore gross already from the advance bookings. Hrithik calls Rajinikanth his 'first teacher' ahead of 'War 2' vs 'Coolie' clash As of now, as far as the net collections are concerned. Till 12 pm, 'War 2', has started off on a great note. As the collection so far is Rs 11.76 crore, according to Sacnilk. The film should have a day 1 number of atleast Rs 30-40 crore but time will tell if the numbers increase or decrease with spot bookings which will largely depend on positive word of mouth towards the film. Meanwhile, 'Coolie' starring Rajikinanth, Nagarjuna Akkineni , Aamir Khan , Shruti Haasan has made Rs 20.84 crore up till the same time. According to Box Office India, Trade analysts caution, that these numbers of 'War 2' don't yet point to an 'huge blockbuster type of weekend', the kind the industry hopes for with such big-budget spectacles. 'War 2' may look underwhelming when compared to some past juggernauts, but the ratio of advance sales to first-day collections has changed in recent years, making direct parallels tricky. Some previous 'big ones,' as the trade hints, even had 'advances which were tampered putting it in a nice way.' By contrast, War 2's advance numbers are twice that of recent big titles like 'Raid 2' and 'Housefull 5'. Eventually, it's the reviews and now the footfalls during the weekend which will eventually determine the film's fate. But at the moment it looks like, 'Coolie' is definitely on the upper side in terms of the numbers. Day 1 [1st Thursday] ₹ 11.76 Cr ** - Total ₹ 11.76 Cr "Get the latest news updates on Times of India, including reviews of the movie Coolie and War 2 ."

Sholay'@50: Popular dialogues that made its characters immortal
New Delhi, "Sholay" is a Hindi cinema classic that owes a lot to its memorable dialogues for its timelessness. Written by the acclaimed duo of Salim Khan and Javed Akhtar, the film boasts of lines that have stood the test of time. Sholay'@50: Popular dialogues that made its characters immortal The Ramesh Sippy-directed film that released on August 15, 1975 and gave film lovers characters like Jai-Veeru , Thakur , Gabbar , Basanti , Radha and many more. "Sholay" celebrates its golden jubilee on Friday. Here are some of the most repeated dialogues from the movie: "Kitne aadmi the?": Uttered by the legendary villain, Gabbar Singh, this dialogue showcases the tyranny of the bandit as he mocks his henchmen for failing to capture Jai and Veeru despite outnumbering them. "Tera kya hoga Kaliya?": In the same menacing scene, Gabbar points his pistol at his right hand man and jokes. His joyous expression is contrasted with the terrified faces of his sidekicks. "Jo darr gaya samjho marr gaya": After mocking his henchmen, Gabbar laughs and then plays a game of Russian roulette with the three bandits. In a chilling scene, Gabbar and the crowd laugh after the game, and the three henchmen join in the laughter with relief. But then Gabbar turns and shoots them point blank. "Yeh haath mujhe de de Thakur": Revenge is the running thread that binds the film's narrative. Thakur arrests Gabbar and tells him "Ye haath nahi phaansi ka phanda hai". Gabbar remembers it and when he runs away from jail, he exacts his revenge by killing Thakur's family and chopping his hands off. This is when he utters this dialogue. "Loha lohe ko katta hai": Thakur Baldev Singh uses this metaphor to convince ex conmen Jai and Veeru to embark on a mission to defeat Gabbar because as a cop, he has already failed to do so himself. "Basanti, in kutton ke saamne mat naachna": Veeru says this to his love interest Basanti when they are captured by Gabbar and he asks her to dance or see Veeru die. The dialogue encapsulates Veeru's bravery as he refuses to give in to the cruelty. "Itna sannata kyun hai bhai?": This heartbreaking line is delivered by character, Imam chacha. He is blind and does not know yet that his son has been killed by Gabbar. The villagers, Basanti and Veeru are scared to break the news to Imam chacha, who eventually breaks down while holding his son's body. "Tumhara naam kya hai, Basanti?": Bachchan and Dharmendra's Jai and Veeru meet Basanti, the talkative tangewali, once they reach Ramgarh. She keeps referencing her name throughout their journey from the train station to Thakur's home. At the end, she asks, 'Tumne ye nahi puccha ki humara naam kya hai', prompting Jai to sarcastically ask, "Tumhara naam kya hai, Basanti?" "Hum angrezon ke zamane ke jailor hai": This comedic dialogue is delivered by the jailor played by Asrani. The comical character was modelled after Charlie Chaplin in "The Great Dictator". The character explains how he doesn't believe in reforming the prisoners as he finds it useless. This scene, also later highlights the great character development as Jai and Veeru indeed change and become the heroes of the story. "Arre o Samba, kitna inaam rakhe hai sarker hum par?": Another classic dialogue by Gabbar Singh who asks this question just to boast about his notoriety. This solidifies Gabbar's character as someone who takes pride in the atrocities he commits, often enjoying the infamy that follows.
