Ashwin Kumar
's 'Mahavatar Narsimha' is on the verge of entering the Rs 100 crore club, and it's doing so with a steady stride.
According to the Sacnilk website, the mythological epic, which opened modestly at Rs 1.75 crore on its first day, has seen an impressive growth curve over the last 12 days.
With a total collection now touching Rs 99.51 crore across all languages, the film is just shy of a major box office milestone.
Powered by strong word-of-mouth and backed by a solid weekend push, the film's highest single-day figure so far came on its second Sunday, where it raked in a massive Rs 23.4 crore. Hindi versions have clearly led the charge, contributing the lion's share of the collections so far.
Weekend boosts, weekdays hold
While the first weekend helped the film gain attention, its second weekend performance paved the way for its path to being a blockbuster.
Day 9 (second Saturday) saw the collection jump to Rs 15.4 crore, doubling its Friday numbers. This was followed by a strong Sunday at Rs 23.4 crore.
Even Monday of the second week held decently at Rs 8.25 crore. However, Day 12 showed a sharp drop, with just Rs 1 lakh reported so far.

Kareena Kapoor always shows how much she cares about her family and she showed it again by sending sweet birthday wishes to cousin, actor Aadar Jain. On his special day, the Jab We Met actress shared a stylish black and white picture of Aadar on her social media and wrote a sweet message. She called him a 'handsome brother" and wished for his great year ahead. For those not aware, Aadar is the son of Rima Jain, the youngest daughter of the legendary Raj Kapoor and Krishna. Sharing the throwback picture of Aadar on her Instagram story, Kareena wrote, 'Happy birthday handsome brother… have the best year yet love you always." Aadar Jain On Kapoor Family's Legacy In an earlier interview with India Today, Aadar Jain spoke about continuing the legacy of the Kapoor family. He said, 'I have a responsibility towards my work, but I don't feel any pressure. I don't get that feeling that I have to achieve so much or deliver in some way that my grandfather probably did in his films. There's no pressure from my family's or parents' side." 'The fact that I exist in this industry and do what I love, which is acting and performing in Hindi cinema, is something that my family takes a lot of pride in. So, I don't think of pressure. I think of self-imposed pressure to do better because I love acting, but I also want to improve with every film. I want to grow as an actor. I want to be versatile. The idea is to always keep challenging yourself," he added. Aadar Jain's Career Graph Aadar Jain started his Bollywood journey in 2017 with Aditya Chopra's Qaidi Band.

Stuart Broad reveals Mohammed Siraj's hilarious nickname among England cricketers
LONDON, ENGLAND - AUGUST 03: India bowler Mohammed Siraj smiles during day four of the Fifth Test Match between England and India at The Kia Oval on August 03, 2025 in London, England. (Photo by) Former England pacer Stuart Broad has showered praise on Mohammed Siraj , who finished as the leading wicket-taker in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. Siraj ended the series with 22 wickets, including a Player of the Match performance at The Oval in the fifth Test, which India won by six runs. "Couldn't be more impressed with him," Broad told Jos Buttler on their podcast For the Love Of Cricket. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! "If I'm honest, I think you have to be careful with cricketers like Mohammed Siraj, where all you talk about is heart, fire, spirit, and drive. He's incredibly skilful. You watch him set up batters — he tries a couple of away swingers, not necessarily looking to get them out. Then he bowls the wobble seam that comes back in to bring the stumps into play. Shubman Gill and Mohammed Siraj press conference: India stars answer all questions "He's got brilliant players out throughout the series — Root, Pope, Stokes (a first-ball duck at Edgbaston). One of his greatest strengths is the amount of effort he puts in and how he always turns up. He grabs the ball, wants to be in the action — a bit of a showman," Broad added. Broad also revealed the nickname England cricketers have given Siraj. "I was on the pitch on Day 2, when Ben Duckett was just going through his batting drills and Siraj was doing a few mental bowling routines. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like If you have a mouse, play this game for 1 minute Navy Quest Undo Duckett said, 'Morning, Mr Angry. How are you doing, Mr Angry?' — smiling. "And Siraj had a big smile on his face. So the England players were calling him 'Mr Angry' because he's just so in the battle the whole time. "But don't mistake his passion and heart for a lack of ability, because he sets up batters beautifully. He bowls a length that nips back, brings the stumps into play, and you can't get forward to it. I thought he took the final wicket — Gus Atkinson — with a brilliant off-stump yorker." Broad also expressed relief that Siraj wouldn't be remembered for a dropped catch earlier in the Test. "I was really worried that he would remember this Test match for that dropped catch because he deserved so much more in this series. "He was the leading wicket-taker, played all five Tests in a series that was brutal for bowlers. He had a mishap — he was actually off the field for about five overs, changing his shirt, refreshing himself — and then came back on. "Harry Brook top-edged it straight to him at fine leg. He just didn't quite know where he was, didn't have his bearings, and caught it while strolling the rope. The guy in the blue shirt behind him went berserk. Poll Which quality of Mohammed Siraj stands out the most to you? Skill and technique Passion and drive Consistency Showmanship "I didn't want that to be his last memory of this Test series. But he came in the next morning, swung it around, bowled beautifully once again, and fittingly took the last wicket to draw the series for India. He really, really deserved it." Broad also touched on Siraj's now-viral celebration and motivation. "The atmosphere was brilliant. He did a Cristiano Ronaldo-style celebration. He has Ronaldo as his mobile wallpaper with the word 'Believe'. "That's his motivation — what drives him forward. I'm thrilled that he was able to do what he did, because he deserves it. And you know what? He deserves to fly to a beach, slip on some flip-flops, grab a pina colada, and lie there for a few weeks." Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4. Watch Here!
