Kesari Veer box office collection day 3: Sooraj Pancholi-Suniel Shetty film struggles to earn Rs 1 cr, eclipsed by Rajkummar Rao's Bhool Chuk Maaf
The previous Friday saw the release of three films – Bhool Chuk Maaf, Kesari Veer and Kapkapiii – in theatres. Among the three, only the Rajkummar Rao-starrer Bhool Chuk Maaf has performed well at the box office. Kesari Veer, which is also termed as Sooraj Pancholi's comeback film, has been struggling at the box office since its release. The film, in fact, performed abysmally over its first weekend. According to Sacnilk, it minted Rs 32 lakh on Sunday, bringing its domestic collection to Rs 88 lakh after three days of release and failing to cross the Rs 1 crore mark.
The film had a rough start from the beginning itself. It minted merely Rs 25 lakh on its opening day, which was followed by earning Rs 31 lakh on Saturday and Rs 32 lakh on Sunday. The film saw an overall 12.57 percent Hindi occupancy on Sunday.
Like Kesari Veer, the horror comedy Kapkapiii is also struggling at the box office. The film earned Rs 26 lakh on Friday and collected Rs 28 lakh and Rs 38 lakh on Saturday and Sunday, respectively. However, among the three films released last Friday, Rajkummar Rao's Bhool Chuk Maaf emerged as a winner. The film earned Rs 11.25 crore on Sunday, bringing its total domestic collection to Rs 27.73 crore within just three days of release.
Kesari Veer doesn't stand a chance when compared to Sooraj Pancholi's debut film, Hero. Even though Hero was declared a flop, it performed significantly better than Pancholi's latest outing. In fact, Kesari Veer's total three-day collection couldn't even match Hero's opening day numbers. While Hero earned Rs 6.90 crore on its first day, Kesari Veer managed only Rs 25 lakh. Over its opening weekend, Hero had minted Rs 21.25 crore, a figure that dwarfs Kesari Veer's Rs 88 lakh.
Kesari Veer is directed by Prince Dhiman and penned by Kanubhai Chauhan. The film tells the story of Hamirji Gohli, an unsung Rajput warrior who fought bravely against the Tughlak Empire to defend the sacred Somnath Temple. Sooraj Pancholi plays the fearless hero Hamirji Gohli in the film, while Vivek Oberoi is seen in the character of an antagonist. Suniel Shetty and Akansha Sharma play pivotal roles.

In this collection of pictures we shall know the beautiful love story of Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma. We shall know everything about their first meeting and dating era. Let's dive in. In IPL 2025, Royal Challengers Bengaluru defeated Punjab Kings and won the title. This was RCB's first IPL title. Many stars were present in the stadium to watch this match. Virat Kohli's wife and Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma was also present in the stadium to watch this match. As soon as the match ended, both of them celebrated together. Kohli hugged Anushka and cried. This cute moment was also captured on camera. It has been a long time since both of them got married. Here we are telling you about some special things related to their love story and married life. The first meeting of Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma was very interesting. Both of them met on the set during an ad shoot in the year 2013. Virat Kohli had told in an interview that he was very nervous during his first meeting with Anushka and to overcome his nervousness and talk to Anushka, he cracked a joke. Actually, during the ad shoot, Anushka looked taller than Virat, so the cricketer said, 'Don't you think you are wearing very high heels.' Anushka Sharma got angry after hearing this from Virat Kohli and she said, 'Excuse me.' After such a reaction of Anushka, a strange situation arose. However, later both of them became good friends. In 2014, Virat scored a century in Melbourne. Anushka had also reached to watch this match. After completing his century, Virat gave a flying kiss to Anushka who was present in the stadium. Due to this, fans started speculating that the two are getting closer. Dating speculations also started. After dating for a few years, Anushka and Virat got married in December 2017. To make this wedding royal, Virat-Anushka spent money like water. The resort in which Virushka got married was opened especially for them in December. Otherwise this resort always opens in April. Only 50 special guests were invited for the wedding. The cost of one person staying here for a week is about one crore rupees. According to this, Rs 45-50 crore were spent only on accommodating the guests for Virat and Anushka's wedding. When Anushka Sharma was dating Virat Kohli, she liked one special thing about the cricketer. Anushka said in an event related to Indian Sports Honors in the year 2023, 'Before dating, one thing I liked about Virat was his memory. I thought this thing would be very helpful for me.' It was because of Virat Kohli's good memory that Anushka came close to him. On 11 January 2021, Anushka gave birth to daughter Vamika, while on 15 February 2024, she gave birth to son Akay. These days Anushka is giving full time to raising her children away from films, Virat also spends more time with the family. Anushka reached many matches this season to support Virat and RCB team. Due to this lady luck, Virat's team managed to win the IPL title this season. It was not only Anushka Sharma's life that changed because of Virat. Many changes came in Virat's life because of Anushka Sharma. In an interview given in the year 2020, Virat said, 'When the situation is difficult, you have to leave your ego. You have to stay strong in difficult times, keep struggling continuously, in the end you find a way. I saw Anushka doing this and have learned the same thing from her.' Whenever Virat has won a title, he has given credit to Anushka. Be it the 2024 T20 World Cup or the 2025 Champions Trophy. Even after winning the IPL, Kohli gave credit to Anushka and said that Anushka has been with me in every difficult time. I am grateful to her.

Housefull 5 India Advance Booking Update: Akshay Kumar's comic caper to sell in the vicinity of 40000 tickets in top chains with a day to go
Akshay Kumar's Housefull 5 is gearing up for its big release on June 6, 2025. The advance bookings for the comic caper kicked off a few days ago and here is how the bookings are in India's top multiplex chains, PVRInox and Cinepolis. As of 10 PM on June 4, the film has sold 37,000 tickets. By the end of the day, Housefull 5 is expected to hit 40,000 tickets. With just one day left, the makers are hoping for a massive surge to reach at least 100,000 tickets in these chains. The advance bookings for the Akshay Kumar starrer started on June 1. Initially, the target was to sell 125,000 to 150,000 tickets in PVRInox and Cinepolis. However, the pace has been slower than expected. As of now, the film is aiming for a more realistic 100,000 tickets by Thursday night. This would set the stage for a respectable opening day collection of Rs 20 crore net in India. While Rs 20 crore is a not exactly a bad start, a film of Housefull 5's scale, boasting a Rs 225 crore budget, needs a bigger opening to make waves. A Rs 25-30 crore start would be ideal, but you take what you get. Outside the top chains, the booking trend is stronger. Chains like Rajhans, MovieMax, and Miraj are seeing better pre-sales. This suggests that Housefull 5 could see good walk-in numbers on release day, especially in smaller towns. The weekend bookings looks promising. Advance bookings for Saturday (Bakri Eid) and Sunday are picking up strongly. Family audiences are expected to turn up in big numbers, boosting the film's prospects. If the comedy lands well and the murder-mystery intrigue around the dual climaxes clicks, Housefull 5 could see a big jump over the weekend. Financially, Housefull 5 is in a strong position. The film has already recovered nearly 60 percent of its budget, that is around Rs 135 crore, through non-theatrical sources like satellite rights, digital streaming, and music deals. This gives the makers a safety net. To break even, the film needs to gross Rs 275 crore worldwide. To be declared a hit, it must cross Rs 325 crore globally. With a massive release across 5,000 screens in India, the stage is set for a big theatrical run. The unique strategy of releasing two versions with different climaxes should spark discussions after the release. This could possibly also drive repeat viewings, adding to the box office haul. Directed by Tarun Mansukhani, Housefull 5 features a star-studded cast that also includes Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, and Jacqueline Fernandez among others. The franchise's brand value and the promise of a laugh riot on a luxury cruise are key draws. With good international pre-sales and a holiday weekend ahead, Housefull 5 is poised for a reasonable global start.
