Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Day 1: Aamir Khan's Film Opens At Rs 8.87 Crore
Last Updated: Sitaare Zameen Par: While Laal Singh Chaddha had opened with Rs 11.7 cr on day 1, it remains to be seen whether Sitaare Zameen Par will surpass that figure by the end of the day. Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Collection Day 1: Aamir Khan's much-awaited comeback film, Sitaare Zameen Par, finally hit theatres on Friday, and early box office figures suggest a modest start. As per the latest update on the film managed to earn Rs 8.87 crore by 8 pm on its opening day. While expectations were high given Aamir's return to the big screen after Laal Singh Chaddha (2022), the start has been slightly underwhelming, especially when compared to his past hits. The film saw an overall 17.73% Hindi occupancy on Friday, with morning shows reporting a 16.74% turnout. The numbers stayed largely consistent for the afternoon (16.25%) and picked up a bit during the evening with 20.21%. While Laal Singh Chaddha had opened with Rs 11.7 crore on day one, it remains to be seen whether Sitaare Zameen Par will surpass that figure by the end of the day. Directed by RS Prasanna, Sitaare Zameen Par is being marketed as a spiritual sequel to the 2007 blockbuster Taare Zameen Par, which also starred Aamir Khan in a pivotal role. This time around, the actor plays a basketball coach, guiding a team of children with learning disabilities toward self-worth and victory. The film is an official remake of the Spanish film Campeones. The sports drama introduces 10 new faces including Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Samvit Desai, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra, and Simran Mangeshkar. An excerpt from the review reads, 'Sitaare Zameen Par is a celebration of neurodiversity, makes a strong statement about inclusivity, breaks down stigmas surrounding it, and makes you think about what 'the other kind of normal' is." The review also highlights that Aamir has no intention of releasing the film on streaming platforms anytime soon, signaling his continued faith in theatrical experiences. The coming days will be crucial for the film's performance. Word of mouth and weekend footfalls could make or break its run. For now, Sitaare Zameen Par has opened with a humble figure, and all eyes are on whether Aamir's charm will pull in stronger numbers ahead. First Published:

Actor's positive tweet gives new twist to controversy) The report points out that Housefull 5 collected ₹13.1 crore as per early estimates on its fourth day of release. The drop in collections on Monday was expected since it is a weekday, but the film remained steady even then. On Sunday, Housefull 5 registered its highest single-day collection so far at ₹32.5 crore. The total collection now stands at ₹101 crore. On Monday, Housefull 5 had an overall 17.62% Hindi Occupancy. The film has now surpassed the India nett collections of Akshay's previous film, Kesari Chapter 2. It had made ₹ 92.53 crore. Will Housefull 5 beat the haul of Sky Force at ₹149 crore? The next few days are crucial for the film to arrive at that answer. Housefull 5 tells the story of three men called Jolly being suspects for the murder of a rich industrialist on a cruise ship. The film has two different endings with two different killers. 'The first half is spent establishing the conflict and delivering the franchise's usual fare: mistaken identities, someone's girlfriend being someone's wife, and the expected private-part jokes and innuendos. Nothing is spared in the effort to make you laugh, but most punchlines land only in instalments,' read an excerpt from the Hindustan Times review of the film. Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala's production banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, the comedy stars an ensemble cast that includes Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, Fardeen Khan, Nana Patekar, Jackie Shroff, Ranjeet, Johny Lever, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri, Chunky Panday, Dino Morea, Sonam Bajwa, and Soundarya Sharma.
