'Thammudu' box office collections day 1: Nithiin starrer opens with Rs 2 crore, shows promise in Telugu markets
Nithiin-starrer sees decent footfalls in Hyderabad and Vijayawada on opening day. The Telugu action-drama 'Thammudu', starring Nithiin in the lead, kicked off its theatrical run on July 4 with an estimated Rs 2 crore net collection across India.
Occupancy holds in key cities
According to the Sacnilk website, the film recorded an overall 19.91% occupancy for its Telugu 2D shows on Day 1. Hyderabad led the chart with 23.25% overall occupancy, thanks to a strong morning crowd and a consistent turnout through night shows.
Chennai, though outside the film's primary belt, saw a respectable 19.5% occupancy. Bengaluru remained soft, ending the day with a lower 8.25%, mostly due to limited screen availability and regional competition.
While evening and night shows saw a mild dip in Hyderabad and other regions, the morning and afternoon slots were relatively stronger.

Performances stand out, word-of-mouth may help
Nithiin, who plays Jay, received praise for his grounded performance. Varsha Bollamma and veteran actress Laya, making a return to the screen, brought emotional weight to their roles. Meanwhile, Saurabh Sachdeva stood out as the antagonist, as per the first reviews.
Weekend critical for box office momentum
The next two days will be crucial in deciding whether the film can build on its initial response or settle into a modest run. Strong regional support and family audience turnout may be key to its success.
ETimes review for the film reads, "On the technical front, the film is visually appealing, with cinematographer KV Guhan capturing the tribal locales with flair. Ajaneesh Loknath's background score is atmospheric but rarely elevates the emotional beats. The action choreography is stylised, though several sequences stretch believability, further distancing the viewer from the story's emotional core. Thammudu had all the ingredients for a stirring emotional-action drama, but in trying too hard to be everything, it ends up being less than the sum of its parts.
A film that had the potential to hit the bullseye sadly misses the mark."

'Tourist Family' director Abishan Jeevinth set to turn hero; Anaswara Rajan likely to join as lead
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Abishan Jeevinth , the breakout director of the superhit film 'Tourist Family', is reportedly all set to make his debut as a full-fledged actor. Known for his heartfelt storytelling and modest filmmaking approach, Abishan had already made a brief on-screen appearance in 'Tourist Family' as a grieving youngster—a role that, though small, left an emotional mark. Now, according to the reports, he's ready to take on a lead role in an upcoming project. Tourist Family | Song - Aachaley After directorial success, Abishan steps into the spotlight This new venture, which marks Abishan's official foray into acting, will reportedly be directed by a close associate from his Tourist Family crew. While the title is said to be in English, and Anaswara Rajan is rumoured to play the female lead, no formal announcements have been made so far, according to IANS. Love for 'Tourist Family' Tourist Family, released on May 1, surprised many with its feel-good charm and exceptional box office performance. Featuring Sasikumar and Simran in lead roles, the film also starred Yogi Babu, M.S. Bhaskar, Ramesh Thilak, and others in a wholesome narrative that connected with family audiences. ETimes gave the movie a rating of 2.5 stars out of 5 and our review read, "The film finds its anchor in the central performances. Their natural chemistry is a definite plus. The younger son, played by Kamalesh, also provides moments of genuine levity (though sometimes his chatter grates), and the film's use of authentic Sri Lankan Tamil dialect adds a valuable layer of realism to their interactions. 'Tourist Family' is a gentle look at the challenges of starting over, even if the narrative feels somewhat formulaic." Meanwhile, Anaswara Rajan recently impressed the audience with her stunning performance in the Malayalam film 'Rekhachithram'.

Virat Kohli And Anushka Sharma's Rs 32 Crore Alibaug Villa Is All About Quiet Luxury
Last Updated: Acquired by Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli in 2019, the couple's Alibaug home is more than just a weekend retreat. Intending to unwind away from the Mumbai spotlight, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma's Alibaug retreat is more than just a weekend home. It's a sanctuary of style, serenity, and smart design. Tucked in Alibaug's most coveted beachside stretch that is favoured by A-listers like Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli's Rs 32 crore villa is a striking example of slow luxury and nature-inspired minimalism. Designed by the renowned South African firm SAOTA (Stefan Antoni Olmesdahl Truen Architects) and helmed by Phillippe Fouché, the property is built across a 10,000-square-foot plot with a layout that breathes in light, space, and quiet opulence. Tech-Forward, Nature-Led Living View this post on Instagram A post shared by Virat Kohli (@ From a temperature-controlled pool to circadian lighting and gas leak detectors, the home's seamless integration of tech ensures wellness and comfort. Smart-home automation, air and water filtration, and app-managed energy controls make this villa as efficient as it is elegant. View this post on Instagram A post shared by AnushkaSharma1588 (@anushkasharma) Their lush garden is filled with native flora and indoor plants, mirroring the couple's love for greenery. There's a porch by the pool, a jacuzzi, a custom-built kitchen, and a dining nook in the garden – Virat's favourite spot. 'Here, I wake up, chill out, have lemon water, a cup of coffee, ease into it, and start afresh," he shared in the same interview.
