This 2 hour 11 minute blockbuster earned 7 times its budget, now making a comeback on big screen after..,film is.., lead actors are... In the ever-evolving world of cinema, many films come and go. But there are a few rare gems that remain etched in the hearts of the audience for years to come. One such similar tale is of a film that came 72 years ago, but its compelling storyline, emotional plot still resonate with the audience. Now this film is all geared up to return to the screen after 72 years, bringing back the nostalgia. Do Bigha Zameen The film that we are talking about is none other than Do Bigha Zamin. The film was released in 1953 and was directed and produced by the legendary Bimal Roy. The plot of the film revolved around the common man's struggle, where a poor farmer (Shambhu) was fighting against injustice to save his small piece of land. The lead role was played by Balraj Sahni, who stayed true to his character and even pulled a hand rickshaw on the streets of Kolkata during the shoot. The film was inspired by Rabindranath Tagore's Bengali poem Dui Bigha Jomi. How much did it earn? The film turned out to be a superhit, not just commercially but also critically. Made on a humble budget of Rs 10 lakhs, the film collected Rs 70 lakhs at the box office, earning almost 7 times its cost. It got a rating of 8.3 on IMDb. The film won many awards, including the Filmfare Award for Best Film and Best Director, and an international prize at the Cannes Film Festival. It also received honours at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival, putting Indian cinema on the global map. Where is it returning? Now this film is all set to make its comeback. This cinematic gem will be restored in 4K at the Venice Film Festival under the 'Venice Classics' section. The special screening will be presented by none other than Bimal Roy's children. Do Bigha Zamin still resonates with the audience today for its strong storyline, emotional plot and impeccable performance by not just Balraj Sahni and Nirupa Roy, but also talents like Meena Kumari, Murad, Jagdeep, and Nazir Hussain.

Superman box office collection day 2: DC hit earns Rs 17 crore in India, beats Rajkummar Rao's Maalik and Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan
Superman box office collection day 2: James Gunn's attempt to reboot DC with David Corenswet's Superman is proving to be a smart move. According to Deadline, Superman made $56.5 million in North America and another $40 million from international markets across 78 countries. In India, the film's entry has caused a serious dent in the box office performance of domestic releases like the star-studded Kannappa and Rajkummar Rao's gangster drama Maalik. According to estimates, Superman is expected to cross $210 million globally by the end of Sunday, riding high on hype and positive reviews. Variety reports that the film has already scored the second-biggest global opening of the year, behind A Minecraft Movie ($57.11 million) and just ahead of Lilo & Stitch ($55.94 million). On the international front, the film opened in UK at $3.6 million on Friday, grabbing a 66% market share. Asia, though, was soft. Korea continues to be a downer for the movie, and no one expected Clark Kent to click in China either, where Superman made just $2.4 million by Friday, with a final tally likely hovering around $11 million. Brazil, Australia, and France held steady, each collecting $2.5 and $3 million. Spain turned out to be stronger than expected with a million-dollar debut, and Japan managed $781K, despite heavy buzz around the new Demon Slayer. Mexico, meanwhile, clocked in the highest at $3.8 million. Also read: Superman cast salary revealed: David Corenswet among lowest-paid superheroes, Nicholas Hoult walks away with mega paycheck On its first day in India, Superman earned Rs 8 crore, making it the third-biggest DC debut in the country. Day 2 added around Rs 9 crore, taking the total till Saturday to Rs 17 crore. On the other hand, Kannappa, a star-studded Telugu biggie featuring names like Prabhas, Akshay Kumar, and Mohanlal, opened strong at Rs 9.35 crore but dropped like a stone. Week 2 saw a brutal 92% crash, and its lifetime net barely touched Rs 32.6 crore. One of the year's biggest flops, it recovered just 16% of its estimated Rs 200 crore budget. Another domestic title, Maalik, starring Rajkummar Rao, earned Rs 3.75 crore on Day 1 and Rs 5.25 crore on Day 2, still trailing Superman. Meanwhile, F1: The Movie is defying expectations. The original Hollywood title has raked in Rs 75 crore in 15 days and looks set to join the Rs 100 crore club, a rare feat, with only Oppenheimer and Avatar ahead of it. Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan, Shanaya Kapoor and Vikrant Massey's film is struggling to even touch the Rs 1 crore mark. It made just Rs 43 lakh on its second day, taking the two-day total to a mere Rs 73 lakh.
