Revathi Kamath, mother of Zerodha co-founders, takes Bengaluru Metro: Check her Instagram post
Revathi Kamath, the mother of Zerodha co-founders Nikhil and Nithin Kamath, praised Bengaluru Metro in an Instagram post. The environmentalist shared a photo in a pink saree, standing in the women's coach. 'Travelling in Metro is so much convenient and that too in female compartment!!!' she wrote. In her Instagram bio, she calls herself an 'environmentalist and Veena player'. There is no mention of her remarkably-accomplished sons. However, in an earlier interview, she praised her sons. 'I have brought them up to contribute. My sons, especially Nithin, tell me – 'You do it with your own money and don't depend on any organisations, only then people will recognise you.' Nikhil at times will transfer money for a project to me without asking anything,' she told Indian Express. Social media users reacted to her Bengaluru Metro post. One of them wrote, 'Looks like you really enjoyed your metro ride, Revathi.' 'Are u planning to buy Bangalore Metro,' quipped another. Revathi Kamath was born in Shringeri into a learned Brahmin family where music and education played a major role. Her father, N. Krishnamurthy, was a lawyer and skilled Veena player who later taught music full-time. Her creative journey began when her husband brought her flowers from work. Inspired, she explored floral decorations. Borrowing ₹ 5,000 from a friend, she showcased her talent at Wipro and landed a ₹ 45,000 project. Balancing home life and motherhood, she slowly built her name. She opened a small flower shop in Jayanagar, which grew quickly. She later started Calyx, an event company that handled weddings and big corporate events. When Bosch asked her to do landscaping, she self-studied the subject and bagged her first ₹ 4.5 lakh project. Soon, she became a top landscape expert and handled projects for prestigious companies like Tata Steel.

Housefull 5 box office collection day 1: Akshay Kumar-starrer film makes more money than Sky Force and Kesari 2 together, earns Rs 23 cr
Housefull 5 box office collection day 1: After his failed attempts with action thriller Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, biopics Sarfira and Sky Force, and period drama Kesari Chapter 2, Akshay Kumar has returned to comedy drama with the fifth installment of his famous franchise Housefull. The much-awaited film released with two endings Housefull 5A and Housefull 5B on Friday. The films are identical for over two hours, but the climax of both films is different. While this is being promoted as new marketing strategy to get viewers to buy two or more tickets, it seems unlikely that this will benefit the film as it has has opened to mixed reviews. On its opening day, Housefull made Rs 23 crore, as per industry tracker Sacnilk. Despite the film's ensemble cast Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Chunky Panday, Jackie Shroff, Ranjeet and new additions Nargis Fakhri, Sonam Bajwa, Fardeen Khan, Nana Patekar, Johnny Lever, Sanjay Dutt, the film witnessed an overall occupancy of just 28% for its first version and about 16% for its second version. Housefull 5A had over 4000 shows across India, and Housefull 5B had over 2900 shows, taking the total to over 7000 shows. ALSO READ | Varun Grover's short film Kiss may be uneven and overly constructed, but it dares to gesture towards the transcendental power of cinema Housefull 5's opening day collection is Rs 4 crore more than the first day collection of Housefull 4, as it made around Rs 19 crore back in 2019. Akshay Kumar's Housefull 5 has recorded the highest opening compared to his other releases this year. Sky Force, his first release of the year, opened at Rs 12.25 crore and went on to make Rs 112 crore. His second release, Kesari Chapter 2, started its box office journey with around Rs 7 crore, and ended up making around Rs 92 crore. Since they were both made with significantly higher budgets, they could not be classified as box office hits. It remains to be seen if Housefull 5 can retain the promise it showed on its opening day. The film, written and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, is directed by Tarun Mansukhani.
