Box Office: Ayushmann Khurrana's Content Driven 'Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui' Hits A Fair Weekend

Mumbai, December 13 - Ayushmann Khurrana and Vaani Kapoor-starrer "Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui" has had a fairly healthy opening weekend at the box office.

Overseas, the Abhishek Kapoor-directed has so far grossed approx Rs. 2.85 crores. It released over 500 screens outside India.





Ayushmann Khurrana has once again hit the ball out of the park by picking up another hard-hitting content-driven out-of-box script, but it is Vaani Kapoor, who is equally getting praised for putting a strong performance. Besides being a new-age romantic comedy, "Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui" deals with LGBTQ issue, and director Abhishek Kapoor is being praised for handling the film with utmost care.

Border 2 vs. Dhurandhar 2: Exhibitors Reportedly Reject Anil Thadani's Clubbing Strategy for Yash-Starrer Toxic Bollywood

Border 2 vs. Dhurandhar 2: Exhibitors Reportedly Reject Anil Thadani's Clubbing Strategy for Yash-Starrer Toxic

The distribution landscape for 2026 is witnessing a high-stakes standoff between major film distributors and theatre exhibitors. According to a scoop by Bollywood Hungama, veteran distributor Anil Thadani (AA Films) is reportedly attempting to use the massive leverage of Sunny Deol's Border 2 to secure prime showcasing for another highly anticipated project, the Yash-starrer Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-ups. This clubbing strategy is a common industry practice where a distributor mandates that exhibitors screen a specific slate of films as a package deal in exchange for the rights to a guaranteed blockbuster. However, this move has reportedly met with significant resistance from exhibitors, primarily due to the impending arrival of Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar 2. Following the All-Time Blockbuster status of the first Dhurandhar in 2025, the sequel starring Ranveer Singh has become one of the most sought-after titles for 2026. Theatre owners are currently hesitant to sign any restrictive package deals for Border 2 and Toxic because doing so would severely limit their ability to allot the required number of screens and shows to Dhurandhar 2 during its release window. The conflict stems from the sheer volume of high-profile content scheduled for the first half of 2026. As previously reported, Border 2 already carries a massive 199-minute runtime and distributors have already demanded up to 20 shows a day in major multiplexes. Exhibitors argue that if they are further forced to commit a specific number of screens to Toxic as part of a clubbing deal, they will have virtually no flexibility to accommodate the Dhurandhar Universe sequel, which is expected to command a similar, if not larger, screen count. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Trade analysts suggest that this pushback from exhibitors highlights the changing dynamics of film exhibition in the post-pandemic era, where content is king and theatre owners prefer the freedom to program based on organic demand rather than distributor pressure. While Anil Thadani remains one of the most powerful figures in film distribution, the record-breaking success of the first Dhurandhar has given exhibitors enough confidence to negotiate terms that allow them to capitalize on multiple blockbusters rather than being tied to a single distributor's slate. As of now, negotiations are reportedly ongoing. The outcome of this standoff will likely dictate the initial screen count for both Toxic and Dhurandhar 2. With Border 2 already poised for a historic Republic Day opening, the industry is closely watching how these logistical battles play out, as they will ultimately determine the box office potential of 2026's biggest cinematic events.

Dhurandhar Box Office: Film Shatters Stree 2's 7th Week Record; Vicky Kaushal to Reprise Uri Role in Dhurandhar 2

Director Aditya Dhar is officially expanding his directorial footprint by creating a massive cinematic crossover. According to a report by Mid-day, Vicky Kaushal is set to feature in an extended cameo in the upcoming sequel, Dhurandhar 2. In a major twist for fans, Kaushal will be reprising his legendary role as Major Vihaan Shergill from the 2019 blockbuster Uri: The Surgical Strike. This move confirms the formation of a Dhurandhar Universe, strategically linking Dhar's previous military masterpiece with this current franchise. The integration of Major Vihaan Shergill into Dhurandhar 2 is a significant narrative development. Despite Uri being set in 2016, Aditya Dhar has reportedly woven the character into the new storyline seamlessly. The cameo is expected to be high-impact, featuring several action blocks. While it remains to be seen if Vicky Kaushal and Ranveer Singh's characters will share the screen, the inclusion of the Uri lead adds immense star power to the sequel. Furthermore, the report indicates that Akshaye Khanna's role in the second installment will be limited to specific flashback sequences to accommodate the expanding universe. While the sequel generates buzz, the first Dhurandhar installment continues its historic run at the box office, demonstrating unprecedented longevity. In its seventh week of release, the film has maintained a rock-solid performance. The 7th-week collection breakdown is as follows: Day 43 (Friday) at ₹1.75 Cr Day 44 (Saturday) at ₹3.00 Cr Day 45 (Sunday) at ₹3.75 Cr Day 46 (Monday) at ₹1.50 Cr Day 47 (Tuesday) at ₹1.50 Cr This brings the total India Net collection for the first five days of the seventh week to a staggering ₹11.50 Cr. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   With two days still remaining in the week, Dhurandhar has already officially surpassed the previous all-time 7th-week record held by Stree 2 (₹9.35 Cr). This achievement is part of a larger trend of the film's extraordinary legs at the box office. Although Dhurandhar initially ranked at the 12th position for highest opening week collections, it has dominated every subsequent week, bagging the #1 spot for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th-week collections. Once the seventh week concludes, it is guaranteed to take the first position on that chart as well, surpassing Stree2,Chhaava and Pushpa 2: The Rule. The cumulative box office standing of Dhurandhar cements its status as an All-Time Blockbuster. The film's total India Net collection currently stands at ₹826.6 Cr, with an India Gross collection of ₹991.65 Cr. Internationally, the film has performed exceptionally well, raking in an Overseas collection of ₹293.6 Cr. This brings the total Worldwide collection to a massive ₹1285.25 Cr. As the film continues to run in theaters, the successful launch of a cinematic universe with the Uri connection is expected to further boost the franchise's value.

The film has been setting daily box office benchmarks since its second week and continues to dominate the charts with record-breaking collections. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The Ranveer Singh-led blockbuster had already sealed its place as the biggest Hindi grosser worldwide, and it has now gone a step further by dethroning a pan-India juggernaut. What makes the achievement even more remarkable is the film's adult certification, yet it remains the top choice for moviegoers even in its sixth week, an exceptional feat in today's theatrical landscape. At the worldwide box office, Dhurandhar is marching towards the 1300 crore gross milestone. The film has collected around 1265 crore gross in 41 days, including a stellar 290+ crore overseas haul, and is on track to finish around 300 crore internationally, placing it among the biggest Indian overseas performers of all time. Overall, Dhurandhar is the fourth highest-grossing Indian film globally, behind Dangal (2070 crore), Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (1790 crore), and Pushpa 2: The Rule (1742 crore). Notably, Dangal's historic total includes over 1300 crore from China, a market that remains an exception rather than the norm for Indian cinema. Stay tuned...

Mana shankaraVaraprasad Garu Leads Ticket Sales with Mammoth Opening; Dhurandhar's Day 38 Hold Continues to Amaze

The latest 24-hour ticket sales data from BookMyShow provides a clear picture of the current box office hierarchy, highlighting a massive new opening, the incredible staying power of an all-time blockbuster, and the struggles of underperforming films. The new release, ManashankarVaraprasad, has expectedly taken the box office by storm, while the veteran Dhurandhar continues to post phenomenal numbers deep into its theatrical run. The biggest story from the latest trends is the sensational start for ManashankarVaraprasad Garu, which has translated its massive pre-release buzz into phenomenal box office numbers. The colossal sale of 488K tickets on BookMyShow perfectly foreshadowed the bumper opening. As per the official figures, its Day 1 India Net collection (including premieres) stands at a spectacular ₹37.1 Cr. This translates to a phenomenal India Gross of ₹50 Cr. The film has also stormed the international box office, kicking off its run with an impressive ₹21 Cr from overseas markets. This has propelled its total worldwide gross on its opening day to a staggering ₹71 Cr, setting the stage for one of the biggest opening weekends of the year. The film is clearly the undisputed top choice for moviegoers. In what can only be described as a historic feat, Dhurandhar continues to be a box office force even on its 38th day (D38). The film sold an astonishing 43.5K tickets in the last 24 hours, a figure that is higher than some films in their opening weekend. This demonstrates the film's unprecedented hold and cements its status as a true history-maker. With its worldwide gross already past ₹1259.5 Cr and its India Net collection soaring above ₹808 Cr, this continued audience interest ensures its record-breaking run is far from over.

On its crucial first Monday (D4), the film managed to sell only 82.2K tickets. For a film of this massive scale and star power, such a figure indicates a very poor hold after the opening weekend and suggests it has failed to meet the colossal expectations. This trend points towards a significant underperformance. In comparison, Parasakthi has had a very weak run, with ticket sales at a low 38.4K on its third day (D3).Meanwhile, SarvamMaya is putting up a respectable fight in its own league, selling a steady 28.2K tickets on its 18th day.
