AA22xA6 Update: Baahubali Actress Joins Allu Arjun's Mega Movie With Director Atlee

Hyderabad, August 16 - One of the biggest Indian films in the making is a combination of Telugu superstar Allu Arjun and director Atlee, has a famous addition to its already blockbuster casting, which includes Deepika Padukone, Mrunal Thakur, Rashmika Mandanna, and Janhvi Kapoor. ## According to the latest report by Peepingmoon.com, the makers have roped in South actress Ramya Krishnan, known for her iconic portrayal of Rajamata Sivagami Devi in SS Rajamouli's epic blockbuster Baahubali franchise. She has reportedly been signed on for a prominent role in the action spectacle. ## Set in a parallel universe, AA22xA6 is said to be a high-concept VFX-driven spectacle, to which many national and international artists are attached. To elevate the film's action quotient, Atlee has roped in leading Hollywood stunt choreographers, including Spiro Razatos, who is known for working on Marvel movies and Indian tentpoles like Jawan and War 2. ## The shoot of the film has already commenced in June this year. The filming is currently happening in Mumbai, where Mrunal has reportedly joined Allu Arjun for key action sequences.

Hrithik Roshan, Jr. NTR's War 2 vs YRF Spy Universe: Opening Day Box Office Battle

Hrithik Roshan, Jr. NTR's War 2 vs YRF Spy Universe: Opening Day Box Office Battle

Mumbai, August 13 - The Spy Universe from Aditya Chopra's Yash Raj Films has completed over a decade with five blockbuster titles during this time. The studio has delivered many iconic blockbusters, from romantic to family dramas, and action entertainers, but Spy Universe is a whole new world altogether, with some of the biggest blockbusters coming from it. ## The YRF Spy Universe has delivered some of Bollywood's biggest opening days, and with the upcoming War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR, the franchise is once again in the spotlight. The film has generated significant attention as it marks the first collaboration between North and South in the spy universe. ## Despite the powerhouse collaboration, the film opened lower than initial expectations. The opening of this spy action thriller is still big enough to set the base for an excellent Independence Day opening weekend (if WOM is positive), but as far as Spy Universe is concerned, War 2 debuted lower than Salman Khan's Ek Tha Tiger, making it the lowest opener in the spy universe. ## Have A Look At The Opening Day India Net Collection of Spy Universe Films (Hindi)Movie TitleYearDay 1 CollectionChange (%) From Last FilmEk Tha Tiger2012â‚¹ 32.93 Cr-Tiger Zinda Hai2017â‚¹ 34.10 Cr+3.55%War2019â‚¹ 51.60 Cr+51.32%Pathaan2023â‚¹ 55.00 Cr+6.59%Tiger 32023â‚¹ 43.00 Cr-21.82%War 22025â‚¹ 29.00 Cr-32.56%## Since its inception with Ek Tha Tiger in 2012, the franchise has steadily grown in scale and box office impact. Tiger Zinda Hai in 2017 slightly upped the game with the bigger opening, but the real jump came in 2019 when War, featuring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, exploded with 50+ crore debut, setting a new record. ## In 2023, Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan pushed the ceiling even higher by becoming the biggest opener in the Spy Universe. Later that same year, Tiger 3 also made a strong impact, but failed to beat Pathaan and War. Against this backdrop, War 2 (2025) was expected to open around 35 crore net in India, but it failed to do so. ## The road to record-breaking glory is not without hurdles. The film faces stiff competition from Rajinikanth's Coolie, which dominated pre-release hype and advance sales. Additionally, while Jr. NTR's inclusion has boosted appeal in Telugu-speaking markets; the Hindi belt response has been more measured compared to past Spy Universe entries. ## Stay tuned...

Ahaan Pandey, Aneet Padda's Saiyaara Hits 300 Crore India Net; Beats Salman Khan's Sultan and Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone's Padmaavat

Mumbai, August 5 - Yash Raj Films' romantic blockbuster Saiyaara, starring debutantes Ahaan Pandey and Aneet Padda, has achieved a historic milestone by crossing 300 crores net collection at the domestic box office, becoming the first Indian love story to enter the coveted club. ## Directed by Mohit Suri, the film has achieved the milestone on its 18th day (third Monday) with an approximate collection of 2.50 crores. This pushed the film's total India net to around 302.25 crores. With this feat, Saiyaara has now become the 18th Hindi-language film to cross 300 crores net in India.## Saiyaara has surpassed the lifetime India net collections of superstar Salman Khan's Sultan (300.45 crores) and Sanjay Leela Bhansali's epic Padmaavat (302.15 crores), which featured Shahid Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, and Deepika Padukone. On its 19th day, it will go past War 2 (303.34 crores), starring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, to become the 15th biggest Hindi net grosser of all time. ## Despite its phenomenal success, Saiyaara has seen a dip in momentum due to the release of new films and the ongoing dominance of the animated epic Mahavatar Narsimha. These factors have led to a reduction in its show count, making its entry into the 400 crore club highly unlikely. However, the film still has an outside chance of finishing with over 350 crores net in India. ## If Saiyaara does manage to touch or cross the 350 crore mark, it will solidify its place as the 11th biggest Hindi net-grosser ever â€” a landmark achievement for a film led by two newcomers and driven by youthful romance. The success story of Saiyaara is not only a major box office triumph for YRF but also a significant turning point for fresh talent in Bollywood. ## Stay tuned...

Housefull 5 Five-Week Box Office Collection: To Beat Bajirao Mastani and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 To Enter Top 50 Highest Net-Grossing Hindi Movie List?

Housefull 5 Five-Week Box Office Collection: To Beat Bajirao Mastani and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 To Enter Top 50 Highest Net-Grossing Hindi Movie List?

Mumbai, July 11 - Akshay Kumar's comedy thriller Housefull 5 has completed five weeks at the box office. Despite the mixed reception, the movie has managed to earn a decent success. It has emerged as the biggest grosser for Akshay Kumar since Sooryavanshi (2021) at the global box office. ## At one point, it looked like Housefull 5 would be able to outgross Sooryavanshi's final worldwide gross of 293 crores, but due to competition and mixed word of mouth, the pace got slow at the box office. It will finish as the second biggest grosser for the superstar in the post-pandemic world, just short of Sooryavanshi at around 290 crores. ## Nonetheless, Housefull 5 has an outside chance to beat Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and Priyanka Chopra's Bajirao Mastani (184.30 crores net) and Kartik Aaryan's Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (184.32 crores net) at the domestic box office to enter the top 50 biggest Hindi net grosser list. The movie needs another 1 crore net to surpass these two films, which looks extremely difficult, but might get there if it manages to stay in theatres for a few more weeks on limited theatres. In terms of India gross collection, Bajirao Mastani will remain ahead as tax rates were much higher when it was released in 2015. ## How much did Housefull 5 earn at the Indian box office in 5 weeks (35 days)? ## Housefull 5 is nearing its box office journey as it earned around 35 lakh in its 5th week, a massive drop of around 85% from the last week. It has earned approximately 183.30 crores net collection (218.35 crores gross) at the domestic box office and around 289 crores worldwide after 5 weeks. ## As said, the movie will finish below the 290 crores gross mark globally, as the second biggest Bollywood grosser of the year behind Chhaava (808 crores worldwide). With this collection, HF5 could have emerged as a box office hit, but the cost involved was much higher than any other comedy entertainer. ## Stay tuned...

The dynamics of Rashmika and Allu will be very different from what they shared in the Pushpa films. ## It is said that Rashmika has already done her look test and body scan with Atlee in LA, and the pre-production work for her character is underway. Set in a parallel universe, AA22xA6 will feature some of the biggest male and female actors of Indian cinema. ## The shoot of this Sun Pictures' production has already begun recently, and the makers are expected to complete it by the second half of 2026, with post-production going on simultaneously.

Hyderabad, May 27 - Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga is once again in the media headlines after a fiery social media post, slamming the dirty PR games in the industry against him and his films.

He also seemingly taunts Deepika to leak the full story of the film next time, because he doesn't care. ## "Putting down a Younger actor and ousting my story? Is this what your feminism stands for? As a filmmaker, I put years of hard work behind my craft & for me, filmmaking is everything. You didn't get it. You won't get it. You will never get it. Aisa karo.... Agli baar poori kahani bolna... kyunki mujhe jarra bhi farak nahi padtha", he said. ## When I narrate a story to an actor, I place 100% faith.
