'Thug Life' box office collection Day 9: Kamal Haasan starrer struggles to cross Rs 50 crore mark in India
Picture Credit: X After opening to a decent start, Kamal Haasan 's much-anticipated film 'Thug Life', directed by Mani Ratnam , is experiencing a steady decline in its box office numbers. The movie had immense hype since its release with two of the most prominent filmmakers collaborating; however, it is reportedly struggling to hit the Rs 50 crore mark in India even after nine days of release. As per trade analyst Sacnilk, the movie saw its collections dip under Rs 1 crore, collecting just around Rs 75 lakhs on its second Friday, as per the early estimates. This makes it the film's lowest single-day figure since its release. The week started strong with an impressive Rs 15.5 crore on Day 1, but the momentum quickly dropped. On the second day, the movie only collected Rs 7.15 crore, followed by Rs 7.75 crore on Day 3. Despite weekend footfalls, the numbers failed to cross expectations. After its first week run, it could only mint over Rs 44 crore. With day nine's estimated earnings, the film's total collection in India now stands at approximately Rs 44.75 crore. Theatre occupancy The film's occupancy rates on Friday show that in the Tamil version, the overall occupancy was 17.43%, with a gradual rise from 12.35% in the morning shows to 22.05% at night. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 임플란트 최대 할인 지원해드려요 임플란터 더 알아보기 Undo The Hindi version fared slightly better with an overall 20.36% occupancy, peaking in the evening at 29.71% but dipping to 11.5% at night.

'Housefull 5' Box Office collection day 8: Akshay Kumar's comedy film earns Rs 6 crore, total crosses Rs 133 crore
After a smashing start at the box office, Akshay Kumar's multi-starrer comedy 'Housefull 5' has begun to lose some momentum. While the film opened strong and pulled in big numbers during its first week, its eighth day saw the lowest collection so far – earning Rs 6 crore. Despite this fall, the movie has still managed to cross the Rs 133 crore mark in India net collections, according to early estimates by Sacnilk. A bumper opening weekend 'Housefull 5' made a grand entry at the box office. It earned Rs 24 crore on its first Friday, followed by Rs 31 crore on Saturday and Rs 32.5 crore on Sunday.

In rare white glove sale at SoBo auction, MF's 25 artworks fetch over 68cr
1 2 Defying calls for a ban from right-wing groups earlier in the week and under tight police watch, 25 artworks by MF Husain fetched Rs 68.5 crore at a court-mandated auction in South Mumbai on Thursday that made for a rare white glove sale where every artwork found a buyer. A total of 25 paintings across 21 lots from Husain's 'Our Planet Called Earth (OPCE)' series went under the hammer. "Two of the lots were triptychs, each made up of three individual works," said auctioneer Dadiba Pundole. The evening's highest bid was Rs 9.5 crore for a dramatic triptych from the OPCE series, followed by Rs 8.5 crore for a Gandhi-themed canvas, both acquired by the same buyer. The auction, held at Pundole Art Gallery in Hamilton House in Ballard Estate and overseen by the Bombay High Court through the office of the Bombay Sheriff, went ahead smoothly. Just days earlier, the Hindu Janajagruti Samiti had submitted a memorandum demanding a ban on the sale, warning of "strong public protest" if it proceeded. The protest was eventually called off. "The auction proceeded without a hitch. I think the police did a fantastic job," said auctioneer and gallerist Dadiba Pundole. In 2004, then nearing 90, Husain set out to create 100 paintings that would, in his words, "document the century I have lived through." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 今すぐ、2025年最高のRPGゲームを制覇しよう! BuzzDaily Winners ゲームをプレイ Undo The result was the OPCE collection that reflected his fascination with global events and human achievement spanning the World Wars, space exploration, aviation, cinema, and the tension between nature and modernity. That same year, industrialist Guru Swarup Srivastava bought these paintings from Husain for Rs 25 crore, a record-breaking figure at the time. Only 25 were completed before the deal collapsed, following Srivastava's Rs 236 crore loan default that led to National Agricultural Cooperative Marketing Federation of India (NAFED) securing the artworks in 2008. These artworks remained in legal limbo for over a decade before going under the hammer on Thursday. Painted in acrylic on expansive canvases, the OPCE works remain among Husain's most theatrical. The top-selling lot — a large untitled triptych painted in 2004 and exhibited in Paris and Dubai — depicts two seated figures resembling soldiers or explorers at one end, and a butler in a top hat offering a drink at the other. At the centre lies a reclining figure that evokes classical depictions of Christ in scenes of the Deposition. Art experts have called this one of the most enigmatic works in the OPCE series, with viewers left to speculate whether the figure is resting, unwell, or just theatrically posing. The second-highest sale of the evening was an acrylic-on-canvas white and grey toned portrait of Mahatma Gandhi, which went for Rs 8.5 crore where Gandhi's face is deliberately cast in shadow, with a white dove — symbol of peace — hovering near his head. The figure is rendered through familiar details such as the pleats of his dhoti, a pocket watch, his staff, and in the corner, a rural farmer with a plough. Both paintings had been stored rolled for years and were carefully conserved, cleaned, re-lined, and stretched, with minor restoration work ahead of the sale. The auction drew strong participation from in-room bidders, as well as online and phone buyers, including international interest. The proceeds will be deposited with the Mumbai Sheriff and subsequently handed over to the High Court. Husain, long regarded as one of India's most celebrated and controversial modernists, remains a polarising figure. His depictions of Hindu deities and Bharat Mata sparked legal battles and right-wing outrage, eventually pushing him into self-imposed exile. He died in London in 2011, a citizen of Qatar. But as Thursday's sale showed, even in his absence, Husain continues to provoke and to command the room. Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .
