CBSE schools to integrate art & culture into curriculum
2
Ranchi : Schools affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) are gearing up for creative academic projects as the board has made art integrated projects compulsory for all students enrolled in Classes I to X, starting from the 2025–26 academic session.
The initiative, aligned with the goals of the New Education Policy (NEP), aims to blend academic learning with art forms to foster experiential and interdisciplinary education.
The guidelines mandate that every student should prepare creative projects by linking any academic subject such as Science, Mathematics, English, or Hindi with an Indian art form.
The initiative is also a part of the 'Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat' programme, under which each state is paired with another to promote cross-cultural understanding.
Jharkhand has been paired with Telangana, and students from Jharkhand are expected to develop their projects based on the art and cultural heritage of Telangana.
The board stated that students of Class X will not be issued their admit cards unless they complete and upload the project. The project must be environment-friendly in design and execution. All schools are required to submit the projects on CBSE's online platform
Principal of Delhi Public School, Jaya Chauhan, said, "The move is aimed at enhancing cultural awareness and enriching subject comprehension through artistic expression.

We have developed various thematic subjects and are currently working on project collaboration with DPS schools in Telangana. In the past, we have even carried out joint projects with students from Singapore."
Principal of Firayalal Public School, Neeraj Sinha, said, "The aim of the project is not to turn students into artists, but to improve their conceptual understanding. Each project will be interdisciplinary in nature. For younger students, the project aims to help them understand concepts in a more interactive and engaging manner."

Saiyaara: All The Box Office Records Broken By Ahaan Panday And Aneet Padda's Debut Film
New Delhi: Yash Raj Films and director Mohit Suri's new romantic drama, Saiyaara, has taken the box office by storm. Starring debutant Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the film has delivered one of the biggest openings for a newcomer-led film in Indian cinema history. Record-Breaking Opening Day Released on July 18, Saiyaara earned Rs 25 crore (approx. $2.9 million) on its first day in India. According to figures from YRF, nearly 9.75 lakh people watched the film in theatres on Day 1. This is the biggest opening day ever for a Hindi film led by debutants. It surpassed the record set by Dhadak (Rs 8.76 crore) in 2018. The film also had the highest opening day for a romantic film in recent years, ahead of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani (Rs 11.1 crore), Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya (Rs 6.7 crore), Tu Jhoothi Main Makkar (Rs 15.73 crore), and Kabir Singh (Rs 20.21 crore). Highest Opening Day Ticket Sales For A Debut Film Saiyaara recorded Rs 9.39 crore in advance bookings before its release, with 3.8 lakh tickets sold. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh reported that 1.38 lakh tickets were sold across national chains, including 1.05 lakh in PVR INOX and 33,000 in Cinepolis. This is the highest opening day ticket sales for a debut film since 2000, when Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai and Refugee made headlines for their strong openings. Best Opening Of Mohit Suri's Career Director Mohit Suri, known for films like Aashiqui 2 and Ek Villain, has delivered his career-best opening with Saiyaara. The film's Rs 21 crore nett opening beats Ek Villain (Rs 16.70 crore), Murder 2 (Rs 6.95 crore), and Aashiqui 2 (Rs 6.10 crore). Fewer Shows, Bigger Impact What makes the film's success more notable is that it achieved this with just 8,000 screenings across India, less than half of the average 18,000 shows usually needed for such collections. Despite this, several theatres reported sold-out shows in major cities. Saiyaara Enters Top 5 Highest Opening Weekends Of 2025 Globally, Saiyaara grossed $11.9 million in its opening weekend, placing it at number 9 on the global box office chart, as per Comscore. In India, the two-day gross stood at $6.6 million, with Sunday numbers expected to push the total higher. The total weekend collection has reached Rs 83 crore, making it one of the top five highest opening weekends of 2025. Ahead Of Big Star-Studded Films In just three days, Saiyaara has earned more than several major releases of the year, including Sky Force (Rs 12.25 crore), Raid 2 (Rs 19.25 crore), Sitaare Zameen Par (Rs 10.7 crore) and Kesari Chapter 2 (Rs 7.75 crore). It has also overtaken the lifetime collections of Maalik (Rs 23.27 crore), Deva (Rs 33.97 crore), Maa (Rs 38.51 crore) and The Diplomat (Rs 40.73 crore). The film surpassed Anurag Basu's star-studded film Metro... In Dino (Rs 48.47 crore) as well. A Romantic Comeback With the re-releases of Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (Rs 22.04 crore) and Sanam Teri Kasam (Rs 35.55 crore) drawing good numbers earlier this year, Saiyaara adds to the growing interest in romantic films. It now leads this trend with its strong box office run.
