Mahavatar Narsimha Hindi Box Office: Hombale's animated blockbuster collects Rs 124 crore in 3 weeks, gets impacted by War 2 and Coolie

Mahavatar Narsimha has been a surprise blockbuster, setting new records with its phenomenal theatrical run. Directed by Ashwin Kumar, the blockbuster movie has performed exceptionally well at the box office, particularly in its Hindi-speaking markets. It has been out for three weeks since its release today. Let's take a look back at its overall collection in Hindi so far. Mahavatar Narsimha (Hindi) fetches Rs 45.25 crore in 3rd week, collects Rs 124 crore overall Released on July 25, 2025, the Hindi version of Mahavatar Narsimha earned Rs 29 crore in the first week of its release. Ashwin Kumar's movie then fetched Rs 50 crore in the second week. The blockbuster film added Rs 1.75 crore on the third Thursday, bringing its third week's business to Rs 45.25 crore. Now, the three-week cume collection of Mahavatar Narsimha stands at Rs 124.25 crore in Hindi markets. Mahavatar Narsimha faces War 2 and Coolie Mahavatar Narsimha, a joint venture of Hombale Films and Kleem Productions, finally met with War 2 and Coolie at the box office today. Touted as the highest-grossing animated movie in India, it was impacted by the arrival of both the new releases. Mahavatar Narsimha earlier left behind Dhadak 2 and Son of Sardaar 2. Now, all eyes are on how the devotional blockbuster movie will sustain itself amid the big clash in the upcoming week. Since both Hrithik Roshan's and Rajinikanth 's respective films have faced rejection in Hindi markets, Mahavatar Narsimha will gain momentum during the weekend. Mahavatar Narsimha in theaters Mahavatar Narsimha plays in theaters now. Tickets for the movie can be booked from the box office or online ticketing applications and websites.

Coolie North America Collections: Rajinikanth's movie SHATTERS RECORDS with USD 2.9 million gross from premieres alone

Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, and starring Rajinikanth is having a bumper first day at the box office worldwide. It has been Coolie-Mania all around. Kollywood records have been broken by a margin, despite the high-profile clash with War 2. While the numbers are excellent everywhere, they are best in North America. The film has amassed USD 2.9 million from premieres alone, and that is around USD 1 million higher than the previous record-holder, Rajinikanth's own Kabali. Coolie Smashes USD 2.9 Million In North America For Premieres; Day 1 Will Comfortably Be Around USD 4 Million The day 1 collections of Coolie look to be over USD 1 million, setting it up well for an opening day of USD 4 million. With good weekend advances, the movie has bright chances to end up as the highest grossing Tamil movie of all time in this region. The word of mouth of the movie is just about average but the huge opening and excellent advances should take it comfortably to the finish line. Coolie's Global Opening Is Pegged At Over Rs 150 Crore Gross; Sets All Time Kollywood Record The global day 1 estimation of Coolie is pegged at around Rs 160 crore gross. The final day 1 collections will be shared officially, tomorrow. A Rs 400 crore extended global weekend can't be discounted with the way things are going for the Rajinikanth movie. The actor has yet again proven his strong initial pull. Even after 50 years, he is able to get audiences to theatres, and not just the Tamil audiences but also the other language audiences. Lokesh Kanagaraj has also, yet again proven that the fanbase that he enjoys as a director is second to probably just SS Rajamouli. Lokesh's frequency of films, which is much better than Rajamouli, keeps him in contention to even claim the top spot. Yes, based on the feedback, there's a lot of scope for improvement. Coolie, despite the record opening, may find itself unable to reach the kind of number that it could and should have reached, in its lifetime. Coolie In Theatres

Sari trader pursuing acting dream duped out of 1.71cr

Surat: A starry-eyed sari trader from the city who thought he was pursuing his dream of becoming an actor was allegedly duped out of Rs 1.71 crore by four persons from Delhi, who convinced him to send them large sums of money to secure high-profile acting work for him — in a web series, a TV serial and a music video. The victim had first contacted the accused on seeing an advertisement for portfolio photography on Instagram. Over two years, they got him to send them money on various pretexts and even called the victim to Delhi and Mumbai for shoots to fortify the deception. Nearly three years after his first contact with them, when they did not get him any acting work and he had paid them an eye-watering Rs 1.71 crore, he filed a complaint for cheating with Althan police. Rahul Rathod, 32, owns a sari trading firm in Surat. In Oct 2022, he saw an advertisement on Instagram for the Delhi-based 'Dream Maker Studio', offering portfolio shooting. He provided his details and got a call from one Alka Thakur two days later, offering to shoot his portfolio and calling him to Delhi for the shoot. Rathod went to Dream Maker Studio where he met Alka Thakur Baroniya, Arman Khan alias Waqar Alam, Shiva Thakur alias Mohit and Vivek Rajput alias Rahul Roy. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Most Beautiful Female Athletes Right Now Undo They carried out a photoshoot on Oct 17, 2022 and charged Rathod Rs 5,000 for it. The FIR states that days later Alka called Rathod again and told him they were launching a web series for which he had been selected. They demanded Rs 22,000 as 'selection security' which Rathod paid. The next day, Alka told Rathod that as he was 'a fresher' he would have to pay Rs 1 lakh more as 'security', which he did. On another call days she said he was picked for a music video and got him to transfer Rs 8 lakh. Rathod sent the money over several transactions in Oct and Dec 2022. Alka later told Rathod they wanted to launch him on 'a big platform through a reality show' and asked for Rs 15 lakh. Rathod transferred the money by RTGS and other modes. Rahul Roy later told Rathod that he would get a lead role in a serial on the Colors channel, which would pay him Rs 90,000 to Rs 95,000 per day for a year. Roy asked him to pay Rs 70 lakh for the lead role — ostensibly to cover his expenses in Mumbai for a year. Rathod transferred the money to Arman Khan and Shiva Thakur, as instructed by Roy and Alka Thakur. Another shoot was later conducted in Delhi. Roy told Rathod he should not tell the Colors channel officials that he was married. Days later, Roy called Rathod saying the channel officials had discovered Rathod was married and had fined Alka Rs 3 crore. Alka told Rathod that she would pay Rs 2.5 crore, but Rathod had to pay her the remaining Rs 50 lakh. Rathod sent the money in two transactions through the Surat angadia firm S Babulal. The accused promised the victim various roles beside actors and influencers such as Dipak Joshi, Akruti Agrawal and Sumbul Tokir, among others. Over two years, they took Rs 1.71 crore from Rathod. BOX Victim took all types of loans As the victim dreamed of becoming an actor, he fulfilled all the demands of the accused. After running out of money, he took loans, including personal loans, gold loans, business loans, and top-up loans. He paid the money to the accused by modes such as RTGS, UPI, cheques, angadia payments and in cash. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
