It is said that 1 minute and 48 seconds of teaser has been certified with A by CBFC, and it will be released with Border 2.

King Release Date: Director Siddharth Anand Teases Arrival of Shah Rukh Khan-Starrer

Mumbai, January 18 - Superstar Shah Rukh Khan's action drama King is among the most-awaited Indian films, and it continues to remain in the spotlight despite minimal updates from the makers. Siddharth Anand is directing the movie, marking his second collaboration with King Khan, following Pathaan (2023). Recently, it was reported that Shah Rukh Khan was filming the climax of King, and now, it seems the release date announcement is imminent. For the last couple of days, director Siddharth has kept fans guessing with his cryptic one-word post on X, something he did earlier regarding the film's announcement. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) On January 17, Anand posted "And" on X, followed by "the date" on January 18. Multiple reports have stated that the director is teasing the release date announcement. Going by the same logic, the King release announcement will be made on January 20. According to buzz, King might be released in September this year; but, given the busy schedule, the makers might also look for an early 2027 release, which will be known in a couple of days. However, a late 2026 release looks more likely as the shoot of the film is nearing the end, and there is enough time to complete the post-production. Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix, King boasts a big ensemble cast, including Deepika Padukone, Suhana Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Arshad Warsi, Abhay Verma, Jackie Shroff, and Raghav Juyal in key roles.

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri OTT Release: Here's When and Where to Watch the Kartik Aaryan & Ananya Panday Film

Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday's romantic comedy, Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, which arrived in theaters on Christmas Day 2025, has struggled to make a significant impact at the box office.Despite the festive release and the star power of its lead actors, the film was largely overshadowed by the continued success of the action spectacle Dhurandhar. The movie is now set for its OTT release on Netflix, starting February 19th. Directed by Sameer Vidwans, who previously collaborated with Kartik Aaryan on Satyaprem Ki Katha, the film stars Kartik Aaryan as Ray Mehra and Ananya Panday as Rumi.The supporting cast includes veteran actors Jackie Shroff as Wardhan Singh and Neena Gupta as Pinky Mehra, along with Tiku Talsania.The film is a production of Dharma Productions and Namah Pictures, with Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, Apoorva Mehta, and others serving as producers.The music for the film was composed by the popular duo Vishal–Shekhar. Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri had a modest opening, collecting ₹9.30 crore in gross on its first day. However, the collections saw a consistent decline in the following days. The film's lifetime domestic collection stands at approximately ₹32.95 crore net.Globally, the movie grossed around ₹49.5 crore, falling significantly short of its reported ₹90 crore budget and ultimately being declared a box-office disaster. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The primary reason for the film's underwhelming performance is widely attributed to the monumental success of Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar. Released weeks prior, the action film continued to dominate the box office, limiting the screen space and audience interest for new releases.On its fifth day, Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri collected a mere ₹1.75 crore, while Dhurandhar, in its fourth week, earned over six times that amount on the same day. Apart from the stiff competition, the film also received mixed-to-negative reviews from critics. While the cinematography and production values were praised, the story, screenplay, direction, and performances of the lead actors were met with criticism.The lack of strong word-of-mouth further hampered its box office prospects. In a noteworthy gesture, it has been reported that Kartik Aaryan voluntarily took a significant pay cut of ₹15 crore from his remuneration to support the producers after the film's poor performance.This move has been seen as a sign of collaboration and support during a challenging time for the film.

With the addition of Ajay Devgn, Anil Kapoor, and Madhuri Dixit to the cast, the film was a massive commercial success, garnering an impressive worldwide collection of about ₹232.18 crores and being declared a super hit. Given the consistent box office growth and the enduring popularity of its characters, the expectations for Dhamaal 4 are sky-high.

This achievement is particularly significant as the film continues to eye even higher milestones, currently standing in the elite company of Dangal, Baahubali 2, and Pushpa 2. The film's financial standing is truly monumental. Dhurandhar has amassed a Worldwide Gross of approximately ₹ 1263 Crore, with its domestic performance contributing a massive ₹ 810.6 Crore India Net.

Dhurandhar Box Office: Ranveer Singh Starrer Challenges Stree 2 for #1 Spot; Beats Jawan and Uri in Just 3 Days of 6th Week

Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar continues to be an unstoppable force at the Hindi box office. As it enters its sixth week, the film is demonstrating unprecedented theatrical stamina. While the 6th week is still in progress, the collections from the first three days alone have sent shockwaves through the industry, placing the film among the top three highest 6th-week grossers of all time already. The true scale of Dhurandhar's success is visible when comparing its 6th weekend (3 days) to the full 6th-week (7 days) totals of other legendary hits. In just Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, Dhurandhar has collected a massive ₹15.4 Crores. With this 3-day total, it has already comfortably surpassed the full-week collections of Uri: The Surgical Strike (₹11.59 Cr), Jawan (₹10.59 Cr), and Pushpa 2 (₹7.96 Cr). Currently, it stands at Rank #3, trailing only behind Stree 2 and Chhaava. Dhurandhar 6th Weekend Breakdown: 6th Friday (Day 36): ₹3.5 Cr 6th Saturday (Day 37): ₹5.75 Cr (64% jump) 6th Sunday (Day 38): ₹6.15 Cr Total (3 Days): ₹15.40 Cr With four days (Monday to Thursday) still remaining in its 6th week, Dhurandhar is mathematically positioned to take the #1 spot. It currently needs only ₹0.16 Cr to overtake Chhaava for the #2 spot and roughly ₹3.21 Cr to surpass Stree 2's all-time record of ₹18.60 Cr. Given the current trend and strong occupancy, it is widely expected that by the end of its 42nd day, Dhurandhar will emerge as the new all-time record holder for the highest 6th week in Hindi cinema history.

Much like Gadar or Uri, this film has found a permanent place in the hearts of the audience, with repeat viewings fueling its late-run surge. If the weekday holds remain steady, Dhurandhar is not just looking to break the record—it is looking to set a new one in the ₹21-22 Crore range.

This cross-promotion is expected to generate massive traction, given the overlapping audience base for both high-scale action spectacles. The sequel follows in the footsteps of a cinematic giant. Directed by Aditya Dhar, the first installment of Dhurandhar emerged as a generational blockbuster, redefining box office benchmarks for Indian cinema. The film featured an elite ensemble cast led by Ranveer Singh, alongside powerhouse performers like Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, and R. Madhavan.

On the antagonistic front, the threat level is set to escalate as Arjun Rampal's character, Major Iqbal, takes a more central role following the events of the first film. The narrative will also revolve around the mysterious Bade Sahab, the shadow mastermind teased in Part 1, whose official casting is being kept under wraps by the makers for the theatrical release.With the sequel scheduled for theatrical release on March 19, 2026, the certification of the teaser marks the beginning of a high-decibel marketing campaign aimed at breaking the records set by its predecessor.

Clearing the air after weeks of intense speculation, director Anees Bazmee has officially declared the project open, confirming that he is indeed reuniting with superstar Akshay Kumar for a high-profile entertainer. While the film has been widely reported as a remake of the Telugu blockbuster Sankranthiki Vasthunam, Bazmee clarified that the team has focused on a re-imagined narrative tailored for the national audience. Speaking on the project's progress, the filmmaker expressed confidence, stating, All I can say is that hamari film acchi hai.Mehnat poori ki hai humne Anees Bazmee further provided the first official look at the film's powerhouse ensemble, confirming a mix of seasoned veterans and popular fresh talent. The director stated, The film stars Akshay ji, Vidya ji, Raashii Khanna, Vijay Raaz, Zakir Hussain, Sayaji Shinde and others. This announcement has sent waves of excitement through the industry, primarily because it marks the return of the legendary Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan pairing. The duo shares a prolific history at the box office, having previously delivered several major hits.After appearing together in Bhool Bhulaiyaa and Heyy Babyy in 2007, they reunited for Thank You in 2011 and most recently for the 2019 blockbuster Mission Mangal.Notably, Anees Bazmee himself previously directed the pair in the 2011 comedy Thank You, making this project a significant full-circle moment for the trio.Produced by Dil Raju under Sri Venkateswara Creations, the film is expected to begin its primary filming schedule immediately. The original Telugu film, which featured Venkatesh Daggubati and was directed by Anil Ravipudi, emerged as a massive success during the 2025 Sankranthi season. Known for its blend of high-stakes action and signature Ravipudi comedy, the film is considered a perfect fit for Akshay Kumar's versatile screen presence. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Akshay Kumar has a remarkably prolific slate lined up for 2026 and 2027, focusing heavily on successful franchises and high-energy entertainers. One of the biggest highlights is the superstar returning to his iconic comedy roots with Welcome To The Jungle and the long-awaited Hera Pheri 3, both of which are expected to be major crowd-pullers. Beyond franchises, Akshay is expanding his portfolio with diverse collaborations. He is teaming up with director Priyadarshan after a long hiatus for the horror-comedy Bhoot Bangla, aiming to recreate the magic of their previous hits.By balancing these large-scale original films with proven franchise sequels and successful South Indian remakes, Akshay Kumar is positioning himself for a massive theatrical comeback. With music director Bheems Cecirolio and producer Dil Raju backing his latest venture, the upcoming years are set to be a busy and decisive period for the star's box office trajectory.

King: Shah Rukh Khan and Siddharth Anand Lock Christmas 2026 Release; Strategic 45-Day Gap from Ramayana

The anticipation for Shah Rukh Khan's next big-screen venture has reached a fever pitch.In what is being reported as an exclusive scoop by Bollywood Hungama, the makers of the high-octane action thriller King have officially locked December 25, 2026, for its global theatrical release. This move confirms that King Khan will be reclaiming the lucrative Christmas window, a slot he has successfully dominated in the past. According to trade sources, the decision to opt for a Christmas release was highly strategic. The team was initially considering a December 4 window, but decided to skip it to avoid any proximity to Nitesh Tiwari's magnum opus, Ramayana.By locking December 25, the makers have ensured a 45-day gap between the release of Ramayana and King.This breathing space is intended to allow both tentpole films—one a divine epic and the other a modern action spectacle—the opportunity to maximize their box office potential without eating into each other's business.Director Siddharth Anand has been teasing this announcement on social media recently with cryptic posts, further fueling the Announcement on the way buzz. King is set to be a landmark film for several reasons, most notably because it marks the theatrical debut of Suhana Khan. She will be sharing the screen with her father, Shah Rukh Khan, in a full-fledged role. Reports suggest the film is inspired by the French classic Leon: The Professional, with SRK playing a sleek, deadly assassin and Suhana portraying his student. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The film features a stellar lineup, headlined by Shah Rukh Khan in the lead role, reportedly portraying a deadly assassin. Adding to the excitement is the theatrical debut of Suhana Khan, who joins her father on screen as his protege. The project also marks a major face-off as Abhishek Bachchan has been cast as the main antagonist, playing the formidable villain, while Abhay Verma is set to appear in a pivotal role. Beyond the primary cast, there is significant industry buzz regarding the broader ensemble; names like Deepika Padukone (rumored for a powerful cameo), Jaideep Ahlawat, and Arshad Warsi are heavily linked to the project, promising one of the most star-studded cinematic events in recent years. While Sujoy Ghosh was initially tied to the director's chair, the reigns have now been officially handed over to Siddharth Anand, who previously collaborated with SRK for the historic blockbuster Pathaan. Sujoy Ghosh remains an integral part of the project, credited with the story and screenplay alongside Siddharth Anand, Suresh Nair, and Sagar Pandya. The film is being produced on a massive scale under the banners of Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures, with a reported budget of ₹350 crore. Adding to the technical brilliance is musical sensation Anirudh Ravichander, who will be composing the soundtrack and background score, marking his second collaboration with SRK after the record-breaking Jawan. With principal photography nearing its final stages and post-production planned on a global scale, King is shaping up to be the most anticipated cinematic event of 2026. Fans can expect an official release date announcement from the makers within the coming week.
