Rajkummar Rao's Maalik becomes his 9th biggest grosser at the box office
Rajkummar Rao's latest film, Maalik, has become his 9th highest-grossing film with an India net collection of Rs 23.54 crore in 10 days. Despite facing competition, the film's steady performance and positive reception helped it surpass Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga in Rao's top 10 list. The film also stars Manushi Chhillar and Prosenjit Chatterjee. Rajkummar Rao 's latest release Maalik has officially entered his list of top 10 highest-grossing films, becoming his 9th biggest hit with an India net collection of Rs 23.54 crore in 10 days. Directed by Pulkit the film also stars former Miss World Manushi Chhillar and veteran Bengali actor Prosenjit Chatterjee in key roles. Maalik opened to a modest Rs 3.75 crore on its first Friday but picked up momentum over the weekend, collecting Rs 5.25 crore each on Saturday and Sunday. Despite a predictable dip during the weekdays, the film maintained a steady pace, aided by decent word of mouth and positive critical reception. The second weekend added around Rs 2.25 crore to its kitty, bringing the total to Rs 23.54 crore, nudging past Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga (Rs 22.45 crore) to enter Rajkummar Rao's top 10 film got massively impacted by Mohit Suri 's Saiyaara starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda . Set against a politically charged backdrop, Maalik tells a story rooted in power, ambition, and societal upheaval. While Maalik isn't a blockbuster by commercial standards, it adds to Rajkummar Rao's consistent box office growth. His filmography reflects a unique blend of content-driven cinema and crowd-pleasers. The actor's top-grossing film remains the recent mega-hit Stree 2, which raked in a record-breaking Rs 597.99 crore, followed by Stree (Rs 129.83 crore), Bhool Chuk Maaf (Rs 72.73 crore), and Srikanth (Rs 48.07 crore). Other notable grossers include Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video (Rs 42.09 crore) and Mr. & Mrs. Mahi (Rs 36.34 crore). Maalik stands just below Bareilly Ki Barfi (Rs 34.27 crore) and Judgementall Hai Kya (Rs 34.45 crore), films where Rao also shone in layered, offbeat roles. With Maalik now in the mix, it becomes evident that the actor's appeal is expanding beyond niche content to commercially viable stories with substance. The film also marks a key moment for Manushi Chhillar, who continues to explore diverse roles post her debut. Prosenjit Chatterjee's presence adds gravitas, and Pulkit's direction—best known for his earlier work on Maroon—has been widely appreciated for its restraint and realism.

CMO another name for hatching conspiracies, allege BRS netas
Hyderabad: Ridiculing allegations of corruption levelled against KTR and Kavitha concerning the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA), BRS leaders have alleged that the Chief Minister's Office (CMO) has been transformed into a 'conspiracy manufacturing office.' Addressing a press conference, former Chairman of the Telangana Sports Authority, Dr Anjaneya Goud, claimed that the Chief Minister's Office in the state had become a hub for orchestrating conspiracies. 'The CMO has been converted into a conspiracy manufacturing office,' he asserted. Goud further alleged that recent newspaper reports implicating KTR, Kavitha, and Raj Pakal in an HCA scam were part of such fabricated stories, and that Chief Minister Revanth Reddy's followers were exploiting the HCA apparatus for financial gain. The BRS leader highlighted that when Azharuddin was the HCA president, the Justice L Nageswara Rao Committee had reported numerous irregularities. Goud questioned what action was taken in response. He also asked whether there were no irregularities in HCA when Vivek was president. Pointing out that Azharuddin and Minister Vivek were both in the Congress party, he demanded to know why action should not be taken against them. 'During the Miss World beauty pageant, Revanth Reddy invited a BCCI official and concocted a plan to take over HCA,' Goud claimed. 'MP Chamala Kiran Kumar Reddy and Revanth's follower Rohin Reddy have a role in the conspiracy to defame HCA. Both of them have also recently established cricket clubs. They are conspiring to make Rohin Reddy the HCA president. How can MP Gaddam Vamsi say a few days ago that a trick is going to happen in HCA?' Anjaneya Goud further stated that BJP leader D Guruva Reddy, who filed the complaint about HCA, was an 'anonymous person.' He questioned how newspapers could publish stories implying that Guruva Reddy's complaint would damage KTR's reputation. Goud emphasised that the HCA has a hundred-year history and all records for transactions made by the HCA president are available. He accused Revanth Reddy, who has claimed to expose various frauds, of sacrificing sports for his 'money hunt.' Goud dismissed as 'a complete lie' any claims that KTR's relatives were given IPL food contracts. Stating that all HCA contracts were conducted in the name of the secretary, Goud questioned whether Secretary Devaraj was being protected by Congress leader Keshav Rao for this reason. He also asked why Devaraj, who should have been designated as A1, was instead listed as A2. Goud claimed there were many cheating cases against the complainant, Guruva Reddy, and questioned whether authorities would believe him and file cases. The BRS leader concluded by stating that the cost of Uppal Stadium, initially projected at Rs 20 crore, had increased to Rs 100 crore, demanding an inquiry into this matter first. BRSV President Gellu Srinivas Yadav, former corporation chairman Palle Ravikumar, and BRS leaders Mahipal Mudiraj and Bachu Srinivas were also present at the press conference.

Do You Know Ahaan Panday Was First Cast With Ajay Devgn In A Superhero Film Before Saiyaara?
Last Updated: Ahaan Panday's debut in Saiyaara was not his first launch plan, he was earlier set to star in a superhero film with Ajay Devgn. Ahaan Panday is enjoying a dream debut with Saiyaara, which has lit up the box office with a roaring start. But did you know the rising star of Yash Raj Films was actually supposed to make his acting debut with a big-budget superhero film opposite Ajay Devgn? Ahaan, who plays the aspiring rockstar Krish Kapoor in the Mohit Suri-directed Saiyaara, was initially launched as an Assistant Director on The Railway Men, Netflix's acclaimed YRF miniseries. However, before all that, he had already been chosen to headline a superhero film under the YRF banner. According to Bollywood Hungama, the project was an ambitious multi-part superhero saga featuring Ahaan in the lead and Ajay Devgn as the antagonist. Former Miss World Manushi Chhillar was also on board. A source had said in 2020, 'It's true that Ahaan Panday and Ajay Devgn will be seen together. Ajay plays the antagonist in this film, which promises to be a visually grand and exciting affair. It'll be a part of a superhero series and every part will have a new villain." Despite the buzz, the film never made it past pre-production. In 2021, Ajay Devgn reportedly backed out, citing scheduling issues after COVID-19 disrupted several of his pending projects. With the plan shelved, Ahaan shifted gears and joined director Shiv Rawail as an AD on The Railway Men. Following the show's release in November 2023, Ahaan shared an emotional post on Instagram reflecting on his time on set. He wrote, 'I was working on a show about a group of brave souls… it made me realise that that is the only way we can treat our dreams… sometimes life forces you to think about where you're going, but that's exactly when you need to look out of that window and see the beauty in it all." Now, with Saiyaara, Ahaan finally steps into the limelight, and fans are loving his fresh energy and screen presence. The romantic musical also stars Aneet Padda.
