Not Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan or Maalik, Superman is #1 film at India box office; James Gunn beats Bollywood on its turf
This Friday saw the release of two mid-budget Bollywood films in the theatres. Rajkummar Rao's mass turn Maalik clashed with Shanaya Kapoor's belated debut in Aankhon ki Gustaakhiyan at the box office. As the opening weekend ended, neither emerged as the winner, as they were both bested by a Hollywood film, quite fair and square. James Gunn's Superman reboot has soared past the two Hindi releases to emerge as the highest-grossing film in India this weekend.

"To play Gurudev, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, is a daunting task. I'm very nervous, and that chapter in his life is so phenomenal, but it's also a tragedy that a lot of people don't know about his contributions, not just to the art of living but through philanthropy. "His peace methods, how he's impacted the world on a larger scale, to tell that chapter of his life is daunting, to play him, he's a living legend. I'm very nervous, but I'll give it a try. I hope I'm able to pull it off," Massey told PTI in an interview. As per media reports, the movie will be helmed by Siddharth Anand and will go on floors in August.
