Housefull Franchise Opening Day India Box Office Comparison: How has the recent killer-comedy performed in compared to other films of the series?
Housefull 5 starring Akshay Kumar and a host of other actors, took a good opening of Rs 22 crore net at the Indian box office. The Sajid Nadiadwala -conceptualised film's advance booking suggested a sub-Rs 20 crore start but it got good current on the day of release to push it to Rs 22 crore net. Housefull 5 is the biggest opener of all the Housefull films. In the last 15 years, no Housefull movie except Housefull 5 has managed to open above Rs 20 crore net. The growth in collections, shows that there is good enough interest among the audiences to watch more films from this madcap comedy franchise. The footfalls of Housefull 5, despite being the highest opener among Housefull films, are the lowest in the franchise's 15 year long history. The first Housefull film got 15 lakh people to theatres on the opening day, followed by 17 lakh for Housefull 2; said to be the peak of the franchise. From there, the films of the series have been seeing a slow decline in the opening day footfalls. Housefull 4 's opening can be seen slightly differently because it released on pre-Diwali Friday and the collections blasted from Monday (Govardhan Pooja Day). It went on to emerge a super-hit. To Housefull 5's defence, it has done well given that Akshay Kumar has been going through a lean phase at the box office and given that the audiences have become more picky about what they watch in theatres than ever before. If Akshay Kumar was in a form like he was in 2018, the opening of Housefull 5 could have been close to Rs 30 crore net. Here's Comparing The Opening Day Collections And Footfalls Of Films Of The Housefull Franchise Film Day 1 India Net Collections Day 1 Footfalls Screens Housefull Rs 9.35 crore 15 lakh 1700 Housefull 2 Rs 12.25 crore 17 lakh 2650 Housefull 3 Rs 15.25 crore 15 lakh 3650 Housefull 4 Rs 17.50 crore 13 lakh 3900 Housefull 5 Rs 22 crore 11 lakh 5000 Housefull 5 has been seeing a steady growth of 35 percent on its first Saturday (Bakri Eid) and collections should flirt with Rs 30 crore. Sunday should again be on par with or higher than Saturday, to give the film an opening weekend in the vicinity of Rs 83-85 crore net. Have you watched Housefull 5? If yes, what are your thoughts on the movie? Do let us know. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.

Rana Daggubati weighs in on Deepika Padukone-Sandeep Reddy Vanga's limited working hours controversy: ‘There are actors who shoot for 4 hours'
New mom Deepika Padukone's exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit over number of working hours in a day and contract disputes sparked a larger conversation about fixed working hours across Indian film industries. In a recent interaction, actor Rana Daggubati shared his perspective on the matter, offering a nuanced take on balancing work culture and economic realities. Rana argued that while striving for work-life balance is valid, one must also consider India's developmental status, which may demand more effort and longer hours to reach certain standards. He also pointed out that work hours vary significantly from one film industry to another and even from project to project. He explained to The Lallantop, 'We should understand that India is a developing country. We are not a developed nation. Our economy is probably 186th in the world if you look at the per capita income. I come from the Telugu film industry which moved from Madras. It was a bunch of families and hundreds of others who packed bags and left one city and started work in another city. So to me, it is not work, it is a lifestyle. It also depends on project to project and person to person and each state has a lot to govern that.' He then explained how working hours vary across different film industries and said, 'Like in Maharashtra it is a 12-hour shift, in Telugu it is an 8-hour shift. But in Maharashtra you start at 9 am, but in Telugu we start at 7 am. The location and city, whether it is shot on a set or a studio, all this also adds to that factor, it is not generic. You need more preparation to shoot on a set, while studio gives you comfort. So it depends on project to project. You are seeing it as a generic statement, it is not.' He added, 'In a country that has 1.8 billion people and 70–80 percent of those earn Rs 100 a day, and we start seeing things in that light, we will realise that we have a big place to catch up.' When asked about actors being forced to stay on set for longer hours, Rana responded, 'Nobody is forcing anybody. It is a job. Like nobody can force you, 'You have to do this show.' It's a choice. Everyone has an opinion on what is important in their life. There are actors who shoot for only 4 hours and but that is their system of working.' Earlier, reports suggested that Deepika walked out of Spirit after her demand for an 8-hour workday was rejected by Vanga. The filmmaker later posted a cryptic note on social media addressing the issue without naming Deepika. In the post, he accused the actor of playing a 'dirty PR game' and wrote a long note on X. A part of his note read, 'When I narrate a story to an actor, I place 100% faith. There is an unsaid NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) between us. But by doing this, You've 'DISCLOSED' the person that you are…. Putting down a Younger actor and ousting my story? Is this what your feminism stands for? As a filmmaker, I put years of hard work behind my craft & for me, filmmaking is everything. You didn't get it. You won't get it. You will never get it.'

Housefull 5 Day 2 Box Office Trends: Akshay Kumar starrer aims for 35 percent jump on Bakri Eid
After scoring a good start of Rs 22.00 crore on Friday, the Akshay Kumar-led comic caper, Housefull 5 is seeing a jump in business on Saturday. According to very early trends, the business is up by 35-40 percent, indicating second-day business in the range of Rs 29.00 crore to Rs 31.00 crore. This takes the two-day total of Housefull 5 to Rs 52 crore, and the movie is targeting opening weekend collections in the vicinity of of Rs 85 crore mark. The second-day business of Housefull 5 is seeing a normal-than-usual jump for a mass-reliant film owing to the Bakri Eid holiday. Centers like Gujarat, Rajasthan, UP, and Bihar are showing positive signs for the film to have legs in the long run. The report seems to be fine among the audience, as a film with negative reports would never show a spike in business even on a holiday, as it has been the case with many feature films in the post pandemic world. The Akshay Kumar film is scoring high occupancies in Mumbai and Delhi as well, and a reasonable hold on Monday will spell a success story for this Sajid Nadiadwala-produced comic caper. Talking of national chains, the film has grossed Rs 9.01 crore at 3 PM on Saturday, as compared to Rs 7.25 crore on Friday at the same time. The business is up by 25 percent until 3 PM, and the same is expected to escalate towards the 30 percent mark by end of the day. Non national chains like MovieMax, Rajhans, and Miraj are show better gains than the national chains, and this was very much expected, given the target audience and appeal of Housefull 5. From here, if the film manages to show even a 10 percent spike on Sunday, it is set for a rather healthy run at the box office, as rarely do films showcase an upward swing on Sunday, coming off a Holiday on Saturday. One must note that these are estimates based on very very early trends, and the actuals could vary depending on the performance towards the late evening and night shows. The same shall be duly updated on the website. Here's a look at day wise box office collections of Housefull 5 Friday: Rs 22.00 crore Saturday: Rs 30.00 crore (Expected) Total: Rs 52.00 crore
