Hari Hara Veera Mallu Box Office Collection Day 2: Pawan Kalyan movie sees 75% dramatic drop after HHVM boycott calls
Hari Hara Veera Mallu Box office collection Day 2: Pawan Kalyan starrer made a thunderous start but could not retain the opening day momentum on Friday, as earnings nosedived 74.71 percent. The pan-India Tollywood film, released in multiple languages failed to make significant earnings not only from the Hindi speaking belt but also from Kannada, Tamil and Malayalam screenings. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Hari Hara Veera Mallu did a business of ₹ 8.79 crore net in India on Friday, making significant drop from Day 1 earnings. The movie opened to ₹ 34.75 crore net at the domestic box office a day after it earned ₹ 12.75 crore from premiere shows. Summing up 2-day earnings, Sacnilk reveals that the Telugu movie minted ₹ 56.29 crore net. Pawan Kalyan's career best opener disappointed on Friday following dwindling footfalls and registered an overall 24.42% Telugu occupancy. The historical epic, set in in 1684, was released in theatres on July 24 and emerged as one of Pawan Kalyan's highest-grossing openings. Krish Jagarlamudi and A M Jyothi Krishna directorial action-adventure film was reportedly made on a massive budget of ₹ 300 crore. Since the premiere of Hari Hara Veera Mallu, hashtags like #BoycottHHVM and #DisasterHHVM were trending online. Addressing the controversy at a success meet in Hyderabad, Pawan Kalyan said, 'I come from a small place in Nellore. It's great that I am where I am today. I don't know my worth. However, the confirmation of my success comes from people when they want to boycott my films.' The movie has drawn marked criticism from the Communist Party of India (Marxist), which has strongly opposed the movie claiming that it spreads anti-Muslim sentiments using a made-up story. Produced under the banner Mega Surya Production, the film features Nidhhi Agerwal, Bobby Deol, Nargis Fakhri, Nora Fatehi, Jisshu Sengupta, Sunil Varma, and Sathyaraj in pivotal roles.

'Thalaivan Thalaivii' box office collections day 1: Vijay Sethupathi, Nithya Menen's film opens strong; mints Rs 4.15 cr
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) The Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen starrer 'Thalaivan Thalaivii' has opened to a promising start at the box office. Directed and written by Pandiraj, the emotional drama about two passionate yet conflicted lovers collected Rs 4.15 crore (India net) on its opening day, according to early estimates reported by Sacnilk. Tamil audiences show up in large numbers On its release day, Friday, July 25, 'Thalaivan Thalaivii' reportedly recorded an overall 47.00% occupancy across Tamil Nadu. Morning shows saw an occupancy of 30.14%. It steadily climbed to 41.95% in the afternoon, 46.54% in the evening. The occupancy peaked to 69.38% during the night shows. 02:47 Thalaivan Thalaivii - Official Trailer Chennai leads with highest turnout Chennai led with the highest occupancy at 60.50%, with night shows in the city hitting 84%. Other cities such as Madurai (49.25%), Coimbatore (43.75%), and Pondicherry (39.25%) followed closely. Bengaluru, while slightly lower at 33.75%, still showed encouraging numbers with a notable increase during evening and night shows. ETimes verdict The Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen starrer opened up positive reviews from the audiences. ETimes rated the film with a solid 4 stars out of 5 and a an excerpt from our review reads, "Amidst all the noise and gags, though, Thalaivan Thalaivi finds moments of quiet, moving emotions. In one scene, Aagasam, tired of all the fights, breaks down in front of his father. In another, a mother posts a WhatsApp status of her child, hoping her estranged husband sees it. When someone sees the family fight for a whole day, they say, 'Inum ivanga mudikalaya,' and you feel that too. However, Thalaivan Thalaivi becomes one of the very few Tamil films that dig into the life after marriage, something after the beginning of the seemingly 'Happily ever after,' and Pandiraj has crafted a fun, frustrating family padam." The film is expected to mint more numbers in the coming days.

Shruti Haasan says 3 with Dhanush would be a ‘rage' beyond Kolaveri Di if it were released today: Worse than heartbreak
Aishwarya Rajinikanth's romantic psychological thriller 3 has become a cult classic over the years. But when the Dhanush and Shruti Haasan-starrer was released in 2012, it received mixed reviews for its portrayal of love and mental health. In an interview with Prema, Shruti remarked how she thinks the film would be a 'rage' if it were released today, beyond the viral song Why This Kolaveri Di. Shruti Haasan and Dhanush played a young, married couple in 3. Shruti Haasan on the 'heartbreak' of 3 not being a success Shruti was asked if she had any regrets, and she replied, 'Regret I have is when some films I know are very special. And I know I gave a part of myself. And when they don't work, it's worse than heartbreak. But in general, I am not a regretful person.' When asked to elaborate on the films she was talking about, she said, 'I wish 3 was a more commercial success. Now, everybody talks of pan-Indian films. But even back then, it had to be dubbed in Hindi; there was no OTT. I feel like if that film were released now, it would've been a rage. Much bigger than just the Kolaveri song. I wish D-Day was a bigger hit. And there are some films which I did for the sake of it, but those go on to become huge hits.' About 3 Why This Kolaveri Di? was a song from 3, composed by Anirudh Ravichander, and written and sung by Dhanush. The song became viral on all platforms when it was released in 2011, receiving more than 3.5 million views on YouTube. Then Prime Minister, Dr Manmohan Singh, even invited Dhanush to Delhi as a guest of honour. 3 tells the story of a young married couple, Ram (Dhanush) and Janani (Shruti), who get married against her family's wishes. However, things take a turn for the worse when Ram realises he is bipolar and goes into manic states, making him feel guilty. The film begins and ends on a tragic note. Dhanush will soon star in Idly Kadai, which he also directs, and Tere Ishk Mein, and Shruti will star in Coolie and Train.
