'Mahavtar Narsimha' dominates over 'Saiyaara', 'Son Of Sardaar 2', 'Dhadak 2' at the box office, collects Rs 15 crore on its second Saturday
But amidst these three movies, now 'Mahavtar Narsimha' came out of nowhere last week and has now seen incredible growth due to positive word of mouth. On its second Saturday, which is August 2, the movie collected much more than what it made even on first Saturday. So much so, that it is dominating over 'Saiyaara' and even the other two new releases.
Mahavtar Narsimha dominates over other releases on Saturday
As per early estimates from Sacnilk at Saturday night, 'Mahavtar Narsimha' has collected Rs 15 crore at the box office on its day 9 which is second Saturday.
This is huge. It had made only Rs 4.6 crore on its first Saturday. The total collection of the film so far in all languages, is Rs 67.95 crore. It has performed the best in Hindi language. Meanwhile, as per the same website, 'Son Of Sardaar 2' has made Rs 7.50 crore as per early estimates.

The total collection of 'Saiyaara' now stands at Rs 291.35 crore. If the film sees growth on Sunday, it will be able to cross Rs 300 crore or that would happen on Monday.
According to Box Office India, Dhadak (2018) earned nearly ₹9 crore nett on its first day, but that's not a fair comparison since it had hugely popular music backing it. Movies like this aren't really about opening-day numbers—they rely more on how they perform in the days that follow. That's very different from a film like Son of Sardaar 2, where a strong day one is absolutely key. But that unfortunately did not happen as there's been low buzz surrounding this

NBA HOFer Shaquille O'Neal Predicts Big Future for Dallas Mavericks Rookie Cooper Flagg After Standout Summer League
Shaquille O'Neal Praises Cooper Flagg (Image Source - Getty Images) When a Hall of Fame icon like Shaquille O'Neal singles out a rookie for praise, fans take notice. His recent remarks about Dallas Mavericks newcomer Cooper Flagg have created buzz throughout the basketball community - and with good reason. Shaq's words reveal why he thinks Flagg is primed for success and why supporters should follow his journey closely. Shaquille O'Neal Calls Cooper Flagg a 'Great Young Man' with Exceptional Potential Shaquille O'Neal , known for his unfiltered opinions, has spoken highly of Flagg in recent interviews, including at a charity event and during promotional appearances. 'Great young man. I know both his parents very, very well,' Shaq said, noting the strong foundation the rookie brings to Dallas. Cooper Flagg (Image via Getty) He compared Flagg's situation to Dirk Nowitzki's early years, reminding fans that even all-time greats needed time to develop. 'Everything about this city, this organization, it's going to be the right place. We'll give him time to develop. Dirk wasn't Dirk when he first got here. I think this is a great organization, a great town for him to start off his NBA career.' Summer League Performance Confirms Shaq's Belief Shaq has also been impressed with Flagg's on-court performance, particularly during the NBA Summer League. 'In the highlights, he looks phenomenal. You must realize he's an 18-year-old kid. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pierce Brosnan's Wife Lost 120 Pounds - This Is Her Now Undo You can't put too much pressure on him. From my experience, you get two years before people really start saying it's time to win, but I think he's way above that 18-year-old curve,' O'Neal said. Flagg turned heads with a dominant 31-point game, showing poise and skill under pressure - a performance that backed up the hype. What Makes Flagg Stand Out Among NBA Rookies • Versatility Across Positions: Can defend multiple spots, run the offense, and contribute without dominating the ball. • Maturity Beyond His Age: Displays strong decision-making and emotional control at just 18. • Early Signs of Star Power: Proved he can thrive under the spotlight with his Summer League play. • Balanced Perspective: Shaq urges patience, stressing that greatness takes time to fully develop. Why Dallas Offers the Ideal Environment for Cooper Flagg's Growth With deep ties to Texas, Shaquille O'Neal believes the Mavericks are the perfect team for Cooper Flagg . The roster - featuring Anthony Davis, Klay Thompson, and Kyrie Irving - provides veteran leadership and stability. This allows Flagg to progress without the immediate pressure of carrying a franchise. From Duke Dominance to NBA Expectations Before stepping onto an NBA court, Cooper Flagg made waves at Duke, winning nearly every major player of the year award as a freshman. He averaged 19.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 4.2 assists while leading the Blue Devils to the Final Four. His combination of athleticism, defensive instincts, and playmaking skill made him one of the most anticipated draft prospects in years.

With the team's support and Cooper Flagg's relentless work ethic, Dallas fans could be watching the rise of their next superstar - and Shaq will be among the first to say, 'I told you so.'

Suneel Darshan on not replacing Priyanka Chopra in Barsaat after Akshay Kumar's exit amid personal turbulence: 'Shaadishuda aadmiyon ko zyada responsible hona chahiye'
Filmmaker Suneel Darshan , who is known for directing hit collaborations with Akshay Kumar in the early 2000s, has addressed the actor's sudden exit from his 2005 film Barsaat. While promoting Andaaz 2, Darshan recalled the behind-the-scenes turbulence and explained why he chose to retain Priyanka Chopra as the lead, even as Akshay backed out. 'There was a lot of turbulence in his personal life' Responding to whether Akshay was initially cast in Barsaat before being replaced by Bobby Deol , Suneel Darshan confirmed, 'Ab toh gaana YouTube pe hai. Maine Akshay aur Priyanka ka shoot... woh film shoot hui thi, I know. Haan, woh shoot hui thi film. Aur ek point aisa aaya ki uski personal life mein kaafi turbulence aa gayi thi.' Darshan said Akshay himself approached him with the request to exit the film. He told Bollywood Bubble, 'Usne mujhe poocha ki, 'Bhai, agar yeh mere bina ho sake, personal issues ki wajah se...' Toh main toh yeh maanta hoon ki actors ko bohot responsible hona chahiye, aur shaadishuda aadmiyon ko toh aur bhi zyada responsible hona chahiye.' Reflecting on how these personal choices affect a film's fate, he added, 'Lekin kya hota hai, galti karna insaan ki fitrat hoti hai — aur producer ko maar khana uski taqdeer mein hota hai.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 13 Celebrities Who Struggle With Mental Illness Undo 'I didn't want Priyanka to bear the burden' Despite the rumoured fallout between Akshay and Priyanka Chopra, Darshan chose not to replace the actress in the film. 'Yeh mera faisla tha, kyunki main chahta tha ki Priyanka Chopra ko us haadse ki responsibility ka onus na doon,' he said. 'Aur main sochta tha, bhai, jiska mere se gehra sambandh tha — jitna bhi tha — woh toh Akshay hi kehta tha ki 'main tujhe apna kya samajhta hoon'... Woh toh us waqt shayad kisi tape mein mil bhi jaaye.' 'Maine socha ki yeh hi better hai ki Priyanka ko continue karein, aur jisne mujhe option diya hai, usse replace karein.' Priyanka Chopra's Cryptic Post for Rekha Stuns Fans: 'Better Be A B*tch Than A Bichari' A professional split sparked by personal rumours? Akshay Kumar and Priyanka Chopra had once been one of Bollywood's most bankable onscreen pairs, delivering hits like Andaaz, Aitraaz, and Mujhse Shaadi Karogi. However, rumours of a romantic relationship between the two began circulating around the time of Barsaat, reportedly causing strain in Akshay's marriage with Twinkle Khanna . As per reports, Twinkle even considered divorce, prompting the actor to distance himself from Priyanka professionally. Their on-screen collaborations abruptly ceased following the incident. Over the years, Priyanka Chopra has largely remained silent on the matter. However, she has subtly acknowledged making the choice to step away to avoid causing tension in anyone's personal life. Most recently, in July 2025, while promoting her Hollywood film Heads of State, the actress briefly addressed her past professional dynamics, praising both Akshay Kumar and Tom Cruise for their action abilities, marking a rare mention of her former co-star.

Donald Trump calls Taylor Swift 'no longer hot' while praising Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ad
Taylor Swift Dragged into Sydney Sweeney Ad Drama as Trump Says She's Not 'Hot' Anymore. (Image-X) You'd think a jeans commercial wouldn't be political warfare, but here we are. What started as a cheeky American Eagle campaign featuring Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney has spiraled into an unexpected culture war with Taylor Swift caught in the crossfire. The moment the words 'great jeans' turned into a thinly veiled pun about genetics, the internet exploded. And then came Donald Trump , calling Sweeney 'hot,' dragging Taylor as 'no longer hot,' and turning what should've been a harmless denim moment into a full-on GOP-vs-Swift spectacle. Trump calls Sydney Sweeney 'hot' and Taylor Swift 'no longer hot' for the American Eagle ad drama American Eagle's new campaign featuring Sydney Sweeney was all about wordplay: 'Sydney Sweeney has great jeans,' with the word genes crossed out in classic handwritten rebel font. But what was meant to be flirty and fun got dragged on social media for echoing eugenic undertones. Critics online pointed out how the ad seemed to elevate a very specific standard of beauty, white, blonde, blue-eyed and combined with genetics talk, things got uncomfortable real fast. Then Donald Trump got involved, and chaos officially began. After finding out Sydney is a registered Republican, Trump went straight to Truth Social and posted: 'Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the HOTTEST ad out there. It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are flying off the shelves. Go get 'em Sydney!' He followed it up with, 'Being WOKE is for losers. Being Republican is what you want to be.' He even took the opportunity to bash Jaguar or any company that doesn't align with his vibe. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Bo Derek's Probably The Most Gorgeous 68-Year-Old. Paperela Undo But the most unexpected moment? Trump deciding to take a swipe at Taylor Swift out of nowhere. Trump randomly veered into pop star territory, taking a direct shot at Swift's popularity. He said: 'She was booed out of the Super Bowl and became NO LONGER HOT .' Cue the record scratch. The attack felt wildly out of place, especially since Taylor had nothing to do with the jeans ad but that didn't stop Trump from making it political. With Swift being vocal about progressive causes and her support for Biden, it's clear she's the go-to 'woke celeb' target for conservative outrage. So when Sweeney got the Republican stamp of approval, Swift naturally got the backhanded burn. This isn't the first time Trump's taken jabs at Taylor, but calling her 'no longer hot' while praising Sweeney as the new conservative darling? That's petty on a whole new level. American Eagle's stock soared nearly 24%, because of course controversy sells. Right-wing pundits like Megyn Kelly and Ted Cruz jumped in to praise Sweeney's 'anti-woke energy,' while left-leaning critics continued dragging the brand for 'objectifying' women and playing with dangerous cultural symbolism.
