0

Pushpa 2 is a sensational blockbuster that collected around 1700 Cr gross worldwide. The film ends with a cliffhanger as a lead to the next part, and even though the lead for Pushpa 3 did not excite the audiences, Sukumar confirms that it will be made for sure. 

The characterization of Pushparaj is enough for creating a huge base for the other parts. However, despite the official announcement from the team, there is doubt among audiences about part 3 of the film.

Pushpa 3 is Definitely on, says Sukumar

At the SIIMA 2025 awards, the Pushpa 2 team swept many awards, such as Best Actor, Best Director, Best Actress, and Best Music. At the award ceremony Sukumar confirms that there is no doubt, and Pushpa 3: The Rampage will definitely happen for sure.

There is a buzz that Sukumar will work on the third part of the Pushpa franchise after finishing the film with Ram Charan.

Little Hearts Smashes Ghaati at Box Office

0

This weekend the Telugu film industry witnessed an interesting clash at the box office between Anushka-Krish’s Ghaati and Little Hearts, starring Mouli Prashant. Surprisingly, Little Heartss wins over Ghaati at the box office. 

Either budget-wise or casting-wise, Mouli’s film is nowhere near Ghaati, but in the box office game, Little Hearts smashes Ghaati by a margin. If a small film leads over a better-known film in the long run, then it is okay, as better content always wins.

But if it happens with the opening itself, then it is a big achievement for a small movie. Mouli’s film takes a lead over Anushka’s Ghaati on the first day itself, which is surprising. Little Hearts has a stunning start worldwide with 2.5 Cr gross with limited shows and release.

The day 1 worldwide share of the youthful entertainer is higher than Ghaati, which truly surprises the trade. On day 2 the lead will be very huge, as many shows are added for Little Hearts, and the advances are much bigger than on the opening day.

Little Hearts becomes the 1st preference for all sections of audiences, including mass stations, for this weekend.

Madharaasi Brings Relief to Murugadoss

0

Director Murugadoss is finally having happy days. After continuous disappointments, the filmmaker joined hands with Sivakarthikeyan for Madharaasi, which was released in theaters yesterday. Madharaasi brings the much-needed relief for Murugadoss.

ARM is one of the top directors from Kollywood who sees a big craze in other markets as well with continuous successes. But in the last decade the director has faced continuous setbacks. 

Star Director Murugadoss faces continuous setbacks in recent years

Earlier in 2025, he came up with Sikander starring Salman Khan, which was a big failure at the box office. Everyone felt that the director was done after watching the film, and all these even impacted Madharaasi’s pre-release craze.

All of a sudden, the movie sees a jump in bookings. In Telugu it opens with below-par WOM and reviews, but in Tamil it gets a decent WOM and reviews. With that, the movie sees a big jump. 

The day 1 early estimates of the day 1 numbers in Tamil Nadu are around 12 Cr gross, which is an extraordinary start, and the day 2 advances are on par with day 1. The trade expects a 35 Cr weekend in Tamil Nadu. 

Overseas numbers are yet to be reported, and if overseas numbers trend well, then it will be a huge boost for the film.

Murugadoss, who sees continuous setbacks, gets a big relief from Madharaasi, and the other noted Tamil directors, like Shankar and Lingusamy, are praising him on social media.

Grok Verdict: Prabhas Beats Allu Arjun in Kerala

0

Allu Arjun and Prabhas are the two major star heroes from the Telugu film industry who have cracked the pan-India market. The fan wars between their fans are common online, but according to Grok’s verdict, Prabhas beats Allu Arjun in Kerala.

The Onam wishes tweet of the Pushpa 2 actor became controversial, as he mentioned himself as the adopted son of Kerala. His tweet sparked a debate on the internet, and a few Prabhas fans raised a concern that Allu Arjun might be the one who first created the market in Kerala, but he is not the only one.

Recently Prabhas is also earning a good craze in Kerala with Baahubali, Baahubali 2, and his last theatrical release, Kalki; all are huge blockbusters in the homeland of Malayalis. Kalki even collected more than Pushpa 2’s closing, which was a key point of the fans’ argument.

The fanwar reached Grok, the AI handle on social media, which also came up with the same point on a netizen’s question. The verdict of Grok said that Prabhas comfortably beat Allu Arjun in Kerala.

Ghaati Day 1 Numbers: Disastrous

0

Anushka Shetty returned to big screens with Ghaati after a gap. The film did not have much buzz pre-release, and the day 1 numbers of the film are disastrous, to say the least. The trade is in shock with such poor collections.

The combination of Director Krish and Anushka Shetty is a very strong one, and everyone expected this film would have a good craze. But the promotional content did not work, which resulted in very poor advances for the film. 

On top of it, the movie opens with unanimous disastrous reviews and WOM. With this, Anushka Shetty’s Ghaati sees disastrous numbers on day 1 at the box office. 

The opening day share will be even less than 1 Cr worldwide. For the business and quoted prices, the film needs to collect more than 20 Cr for breakeven, but going by the trend, even doing a 5 Cr share itself looks impossible for the film.

The weekend advances are even lower than opening day for the film, which hints at a pathetic result for the movie.

Little Hearts Box Office Rampage

0

The small-budget film Little Hearts was released in theaters today along with big films like Ghaati and Madharaasi. The film also had premiere shows before the release day, which brought a good response and helped the film do a rampage at the box office on day 1. 

Little Hearts Day 1 Box Office: Superb Collections

Shockingly, the film saw better numbers than the other two biggies in competition and completely dominated them at the theaters.

The film sees a big growth in collections with each show, and the opening day numbers’ estimates are around 1.5 Cr gross, which is definitely a stunning start for the movie’s budget.

Also, many extra shows are added for tomorrow, and it will easily double collections from the opening day.

Overall, Little Hearts does a rampage at the box office on its first day, and the film is expected to collect double-digit gross, which is a sensational feat for a small film.

Madharaasi Day 1 Numbers: Unexpected

0

Despite coming after a blockbuster like Amaran, Sivakarthikeyan’s Madharaasi did not carry much craze before the release because of director AR Murugadoss’s recent form. Even the advance bookings also trended on a much slower note. However, the film’s day 1 numbers are unexpected. 

The last hours of advance bookings for the film saw a good surge, and it opened with average WOM and reviews. Still, it targets a good opening in Tamil Nadu. The initial expectations were at 6 – 7 Cr gross on the opening day, but the film is all set for a double-digit start with good growth in collections after show by show.

Madharaasi Day 1 Numbers Are Good

When it comes to the Telugu version, the film had decent noon shows, but due to below-par WOM, the collections decreased show by show, which is disappointing.

Overall, Sivakarthikeyan’s Madharaasi gathers unexpected numbers on day 1, and the film sees a close to 20 Cr opening, which is definitely a good start. The positive sign for the film is the advances are promising for the weekend in Tamil Nadu.
