In this article, we are predicting the opening day figures of upcoming releases like Son of Sardaar 2, War 2, Dhadak 2, The Raja Saab, and Dhurandhar.
Day 1 India net predictions of upcoming movie releases:
1. Son of Sardaar 2: Rs 6.25 crore to Rs 6.75 crore
Scheduled to be released on August 1, 2025, Son of Sardaar 2 marks the sequel to the 2012 film, Son of Sardaar. The makers are bringing the sequel after 13 years. The Ajay Devgn starrer is expected to collect in the range of Rs 6.25 crore to Rs 6.75 crore on its opening day. The trailer has received mixed reactions from the audience. Notably, only the song, Pehla Tu Dujha Tu, has created decent hype on social media. It will clash with Dhadak 2.
2. War 2: Rs 55 crore to Rs 57 crore
War 2 is among the most highly anticipated movies of 2025. The sequel to War (2019) has been generating massive buzz and hype ahead of its release. The trailer release of the Hrithik Roshan, Kiara Advani, and Jr NTR starrer has further increased the buzz. Despite its clash with Rajnikanth's Coolie, the action thriller is expected to open between Rs 55 crore and Rs 57 crore. Its release date coincides with Independence Day, which can help the movie open well.
3. Dhadak 2: Rs 3.75 crore to Rs 4.25 crore
Dhadak 2, which stars Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri, is arriving on August 1, 2025. Backed under the banner of Dharma Productions, the romantic drama requires positive word of mouth to perform well at the box office. As per predictions, the Dhadak sequel is looking to open in the range of Rs 3.75 crore to Rs 4.25 crore.
4. The Raja Saab: Rs 10 crore to Rs 12 crore
Since horror comedy movies have a wide appeal in Hindi belts, Prabhas' The Raja Saab can do wonders, considering the successful releases like Stree 2 and Munjya. The upcoming Telugu horror comedy boasts big star power. If combined with the horror comedy genre, it can have a massive opening in the Hindi markets. However, its clash with Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar can change the game. It is eyeing earnings in the range of Rs 10 crore to Rs 12 crore on its debut day at the box office.
5. Dhurandhar: Rs 21.5 crore to Rs 22.5 crore
Starring Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, and more, Dhurandhar will release on December 5, 2025. Months before its release, the makers have already generated excitement with its power-packed teaser. Directed by Aditya Dhar, it looks to open between Rs 21.5 crore and Rs 22.5 crore.

Raj Nidimoru looks visibly upset with paparazzi as he leaves with Samantha Ruth Prabhu in same car after dinner date
Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Raj Nidimoru's Mumbai dinner outing ignited dating rumors, intensified by Raj's reaction to paparazzi. Their public appearances and social media interactions fuel speculation, especially after Detroit photos surfaced showing Raj's affectionate gesture. Reports suggest property hunting and a divorce, though Samantha's manager denies moving-in rumors, keeping fans intrigued by their relationship. What was meant to be a quiet dinner outing in Mumbai quickly turned into a paparazzi moment that reignited ongoing dating rumours between Samantha Ruth Prabhu and filmmaker Raj Nidimoru . While Samantha flashed her signature calm and confidence, it was Raj's visibly displeased reaction to the media frenzy that stole the spotlight—and sparked a fresh wave of buzz around their alleged relationship. Check out the photos here: Pic: Yogen Shah Pic: Yogen Shah Icy glare caught on camera In a viral video, Raj is seen glaring at the paparazzi through the car window before driving off with Samantha Ruth Prabhu seated beside him. Though neither has commented on their relationship status, their frequent public outings and subtle social media interactions continue to keep fans—and the rumour mill—buzzing. Chic dinner look meets tense mood For the dinner outing, the actress kept it effortlessly stylish in a white and navy striped full-sleeve sweater. She wore her soft curls swept to one side and embraced a radiant, makeup-free look, accessorised simply with a black handbag and delicate bracelets. Raj Nidimoru opted for a laid-back look with an olive green jacket, a black cap, and a noticeably serious expression that has since become the focus of online chatter. Detroit photos fuel speculation The buzz around Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Raj Nidimoru's rumoured relationship intensified recently after Samantha shared a series of photos from her trip to Detroit, Michigan, where she attended the TANA 2025 event. Eagle-eyed fans spotted Raj appearing in multiple frames—including one notably intimate picture where his arm is affectionately wrapped around her—adding more fuel to the ongoing dating rumours. The two first worked together on Citadel: Honey Bunny, which Raj co-directed with Krishna D.K. Since then, their off-screen rapport has sparked continuous speculation, with fans and media closely tracking their growing closeness. According to a Pinkvilla report, Raj Nidimoru and Samantha Ruth Prabhu have been exploring properties together with plans to move in. The source also alleged that Raj officially divorced his wife Shhyamali in 2022 and later found love in Samantha following their collaboration on Citadel. However, Samantha's manager has denied the moving-in rumours in a statement to Hindustan Times, calling them untrue.

"Our effort is to reach every house and village": Aamir Khan discusses benefits of releasing 'Sitaare Zameen Par' on YouTube for audience
Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan discussed the release of his sports drama 'Sitaare Zameen Par' on Aamir Khan Talkies' YouTube channel, highlighting how this will help reach a wider audience. Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan has said that he has decided to release his sports drama 'Sitaare Zameen Par' on the Aamir Khan Talkies' YouTube channel. He highlighted that doing so will help reach a wider audience. The film will be available from August 1 on YouTube Movies on demand at an accessible price, skipping other digital platforms entirely. It will be priced at Rs 100 in India and will also be available in 38 other countries, including the US, UK, and Australia, with prices tailored to local markets. Speaking to ANI, Aamir shared the reason why he decided to launch a pay-per-view model through his new YouTube Channel and how it will be beneficial for the audience. "It's my effort to reach as many people as possible in our huge country. Our films are released in theatres. The biggest hit of Hindi cinema is watched by 3-3.5 crore people in theatres. This 2-3 per cent of our population is seen in theatres. This is for our biggest hit. How will the rest of the population watch our films? We don't have that many theatres. Our country is huge. There are many areas with no theatres. This is a way to connect with the entire population. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brain tumor has left my son feeling miserable; please help! Donate For Health Donate Now Undo Our effort is to reach every house and village." He praised the government for making this initiative possible."This is possible today because two to three things happened at the same time. First, our government brought the UPI payment facility a few years ago. This has made electronic payments easier. Most of us use electronic payments. India is number one in electronic payments in the world. The convenience of electronic payments has become easier. Internet penetration has become very deep. It is increasing every day. Third, we have a platform like YouTube. Everyone uses it. It has a lot of reach. All the devices, smart TVs, smartphones, and Tablets are pre-loaded with YouTube. Almost everyone is familiar with YouTube and uses it. All these things have come together. Now is the right time to expand our cinema to the entire country. At a sufficient price so that the family can watch the film together." The 'Lagaan' actor said, "This is my effort to reach the audience. I think we have not been able to do this to date. In India, there are 8,500 or 9,000 screens, half of which are in the southern states. Films in their original languages are released there. Almost 4,500 screens are saved for Hindi films. In America, which has a population of one-third of our population, there are 35,000 screens. China jahan abaadi hai hamare jitni vahan of 90,000 screens hai. .. We have very few screens. We need more screens. In the absence of screens, I thought this was a good way to reach the people of our country. We can reach the villages and homes." "People can choose their place and watch the film according to their convenience and time. This is my effort to reach the cinema to every home," he added. On piracy attempts over his film Sitare Zameen Par, he says, "We have appointed anti-piracy teams who remove pirated links from the internet... The pay-per-view model I'm introducing, where people can watch a film for Rs 100, may help reduce piracy... It also gives some hope to creative people... It will not bring any change to the theatre chain because the experience is completely different..." Aamir shared that this approach allows people to watch the film at their convenience, thereby increasing its reach. He has decided to release his other films also on the platform "We have started this model of cinema that we have been watching in theatres. In the last 100 years. Our audience is used to pay-per-view. We go to the theatre. We choose the film that we want to watch. We pay for it. We have been watching films like this. I am bringing this model online. If the theatre is not close to you. You can watch it at home. You can watch it on your time. You can watch it with your friends. You can watch it with your family. You can watch it with your village. This is the convenience of pay-per-view. The cinema that happens at home. It can be on your devices. On your phone. On your Tablet." The release will feature subtitles and dubbed versions in several languages to cater to a wider audience. Speaking about Sitaare Zameen Par, it is a sequel to the blockbuster movie Taare Zameen Par. In this sports drama, Aamir Khan plays the role of a basketball coach tasked with training a group of neurodivergent children. The film also stars Genelia Deshmukh . Directed by Prasanna, it hit theatres on June 20.
