Non-Theatrical Boost: Tiger Shroff's Baaghi 4 Becomes Profitable Despite Mixed Box Office Start
Mumbai, September 7 –“ Tiger Shroff returned to the big screen with the latest action entertainer Baaghi 4, the fourth instalment in the decade-long franchise. Directed by A Harsha, the film opened to mixed reviews at the box office. The initial collections are on the expected line, given the reviews, but not up to the level of the franchise's standards.

Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under the banner of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, Baaghi 4 is reportedly made on a budget of 80 crores, including production and marketing expenses. Despite the mixed collection, the film has already turned out to be a safe venture for its makers, thanks to solid non-theatrical deals across digital, satellite, and music rights.

According to the report by Pinkvilla, the producers struck lucrative off-screen deals, fetching a total of 92 crore from non-theatrical revenue. This has resulted in a table profit of 12 crore, ensuring that the film's cost was recovered before theatrical revenue even came into play.

It is said that the streaming rights of the A-rated action thriller were acquired by Prime Video for a big 50 crore, while Zee Cinema bagged the satellite (television) rights for 25 crore. Additionally, T-Series secured the music rights for 17 crore. Together, these strong deals helped Baaghi 4 become profitable on paper, despite the challenges at the ticket windows.

At the box office, the Tiger Shroff-starrer opened decently with an estimated 12 crore net on day, but collections dipped on day 2, bringing in about 9.25 crore, for a two-day total of nearly 21.25 crore net, as the opening weekend is headed for around 30 crores net. The film's theatrical run will determine its overall standing with audiences, but for producers, the project is already in the green.

The brand value of the Baaghi franchise has played a key role in helping the makers to fetch solid non-theatrical deals for the latest instalment. The franchise's mass appeal, blended with action, romance, and emotions, has struck a chord with the audience in all age groups. Baaghi 4, however, has taken a different path as it nullifies the family audience due to its adult tone, but it still has a loyal audience, which has kept it relevant despite the signs of franchise fatigue.

Superstar Salman Khan Hilariously Trolls The U.S. President Donald Trump On Bigg Boss 19 Weekend Ka Vaar

Mumbai, September 7 - The US President Donald Trump's peace prize rant has made its way to the Indian television reality show Bigg Boss, hosted by superstar Salman Khan. During the Weekend Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 19 on September 6, 2025, blockbuster host Salman Khan gave a sharp reprimand to contestant Farrhana Bhatt, who refers to herself as a "peace activist", for instigating unnecessary conflicts inside the house. Salman delivered a strong critique of Farhana, and while doing that, he seemingly hilariously trolled Trump, who has been desperately seeking the Nobel Peace Prize for the works he has never done. The superstar said, "A peace activist is supposed to resolve conflicts and bring people together. But what's happening? around the world, those who create the most trouble are the ones demanding peace prizes." Megastar #SalmanKhan trolling Donald Trump 😂😭 #BiggBoss19"Is Dunia me jo sabse jyada trouble faila rahe h, unhe hi peace prize chahiye" pic.twitter.com/Z4SfUNm1Lb— MASS (@Freak4Salman) September 7, 2025 Netizens quickly interpreted Salman's remark as a cleverly veiled jab at U.S. President Donald Trump, who has been in the news for pushing for consideration for the Nobel Peace Prize, despite widespread criticism of his actions on the global stage. Trump's bid for the Nobel, including asking various nations to nominate him and support from his national security adviser, has been met with significant backlash and scepticism. The reaction online was immediate and enthusiastic, as social media users lauded Salman's sense of humour and drew a clear line between his words and Trump's real-life ambitions. One X user coined it, "Salman Sir ne ek bahut achi baat boli... Pehli Farhana aur dusra Donald Trump," applauding how Salman targeted both the contestant and "peace preacher Trump" with a single shot. Another said, "Lmao, Salman was bashing Farhana but ended up bashing Donald Trump indirectly... collateral damage at its finest." Meanwhile, Salman Khan will next be seen in the war action drama, The Battle of Galwan, directed by Apoorva Lakhia. Inspired by the 2020 clash between Indian and Chinese soldiers in the Galwan Valley, the movie focuses on the intense hand-to-hand combat that occurred without firearms. The film began shooting in Ladakh in August and is a tribute to the bravery of Indian soldiers. The makers are eyeing to release the film in the first half of 2026. Stay tuned...

The Bengal Files Vs The Kashmir Files Box Office Day 1: Vivek Agnihotri's Final Files Chapter Fails To Match TKF's Opening

Mumbai, September 6 – National award-winning filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri's much-discussed final instalment in the Files trilogy, The Bengal Files, has taken a moderate start at the Indian box office, badly affected by the intense competition with multiple films. On its opening day, The Bengal Files scored an estimated 1.75 crores net, which is a decent figure but falls short when compared to the good start of its predecessor, The Kashmir Files. Back in 2022, TKF had opened with 3.55 crores net, nearly double the start of Agnihotri's latest offering. The film, which marks the concluding chapter of Agnihotri's socio-political saga, based on dark truths of Indian history, carries significant expectations given the historic run of The Kashmir Files. While the opening is comparatively lower, the real test lies in word-of-mouth and how the collections trend over the weekend. Based on the events surrounding Direct Action Day on 16 August 1946, TBF is showing marginal growth on the second day. If the film manages to sustain well, it could still carve a strong run ahead, though matching The Kashmir Files’ record-breaking momentum seems like a challenging task. Stay tuned...

Dhamaal 4 Wraps Filming: Ajay Devgn and Team Re-confirm A Blockbuster Box Office Clash As Complete Cast Reveal

Mumbai, September 6 – The wait for one of Bollywood's most beloved comedy franchises just got more exciting as the shoot of Dhamaal 4, directed by Indra Kumar, has officially wrapped up, and the makers have reconfirmed its release date for Eid 2026. Fronted by Ajay Devgn, the fourth instalment brings back the iconic trio of Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, and Jaaved Jaaferi, who have been synonymous with the franchise's success. The upcoming film also marks the return of Sanjay Mishra and Esha Gupta from the last film, while also featuring Upendra Limaye, Anjali Anand, Sanjeeda Shaikh, and Ravi Kishan. Produced by T-Series, Maruti International, Ajay Devgn Films, and Panorama Studios, one of the most star-studded comedies in recent years promises to be a laughter-filled extravaganza that continues the legacy of Indra Kumar's comedy blockbusters. Aaj ki taaza khabar, brought to you by the gang, jo ab jald hi lootne aa rahe hain aapka dil…aur dimaag! 😉#Dhamaal4 arrives in cinemas on Eid 2026💥 @Riteishd @ArshadWarsi @jaavedjaaferi @imsanjaimishra #UpendraLimaye #AnjaliAnand @iamsanjeeda @ravikishann #EshaGupta… pic.twitter.com/VvBXSF7nY5— Ajay Devgn (@ajaydevgn) September 6, 2025 With its shooting wrapped and a powerhouse cast on board, fans can expect a perfect festive entertainer as the film gears up to hit theatres during Eid 2026. The Dhamaal franchise has been a fan-favourite since its inception, and with Ajay Devgn leading the madness this time, expectations are sky-high for another box office riot. Perfect But Highly Risky Release Date While Eid is a lucrative festive weekend for the box office, it is going to be a highly risky affair for the 2026 release. With Dhamaal 4 sticking to the original plan, the movie will have to face a mighty clash with Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal's Love & War, along with Yash's Toxic, which are slated for a March 19 debut. It needs to be seen if all three films, arrive on Eid 2026, which is unlikely.

Tiger Shroff's Baaghi 4 Review War: A-Rated Actioner Leaves Fans Shocked and Surprised

Mumbai, September 5 - Producer Sajid Nadiadwala's action thriller Baaghi 4 starring Bollywood action star Tiger Shroff hit the big screen today, amid decent hype. The movie is directed by Kannada director A Harsha and also stars Sanjay Dutt, Sonam Bajwa, Harnaaz Sandhu, and Shreyas Talpade in prominent roles. Baaghi 4, despite having the franchise advantage, was carrying a pre-assumption thought based on the teaser and trailer that it would be a cheap copy of Animal in terms of violence, but once the film hit the big screens, it left fans and neutral audience surprised with twists and turns, as per initial reception. Going by the early audience reports, it is revealed that while Baaghi 4 stays true to its A-rating, it is much more than what people had thought before release. The audience praises Tiger Shroff and calls the film one of his best works, but at the same time, there is criticism for excessive violence. The official premise of the film reads, "At his lowest, Ronny survives a deadly train crash he never intended to live through. Plagued by grief and guilt, he spirals into self-destruction, haunted by the memory of a woman he loved—and possibly lost. As his mind begins to fracture, reality bends, and those closest to him start questioning what’s real." Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️#Baaghi4 is POWER-PACKED.

The Bengal Files Vs The Kashmir Files Advance Booking Day 1: Vivek Agnihotri's Final Chapter In Files Trilogy Scores Stronger Sales

Mumbai, September 5 – National award-winning filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri's much-talked-about reality-based political thriller film The Bengal Files, the final chapter in his popular Files Trilogy hits the big screen today, September 5, amid decent expectations. Based on a storyline focused on the 1946 Great Calcutta Killings and the Noakhali riots, depicting the violence and its aftermath as a genocide, The Bengal Files sees a low, but better than expected response in the pre-sales. The film managed to outshine the opening day sales of Agnihotri's The Kashmir Files, which went on to become a huge box office blockbuster. According to the tracked gross, the latest chapter in the filmmaker's controvercial trilogy, has managed to register 1.22 crore in Day 1 bookings (including block seats), thereby surpassing the advance sales of The Kashmir Files, which had clocked 1.13 crore gross back in 2022. This marks an interesting turnaround for Agnihotri, as expectations have been cautious given the sensitive subject and competition at the box office. With controversy around its release adding to the buzz, The Bengal Files has managed to decent advance traction, positioning itself for a better than expected opening day. Released in March 2022, The Kashmir Files was a surprise blockbuster that stunned the industry by recording the opening of over 3.50 crores net (4+ crores gross), followed by phenomenal word-of-mouth, eventually grossing over 300 crore worldwide. It set a high bar for The Bengal Files. Industry trackers note that while The Bengal Files has shown stronger pre-sales than TKF, the ultimate test will lie in audience word-of-mouth once the film hits theatres. If it follows a trajectory even close to The Kashmir Files, the film could emerge as another major success story. Stay tuned...

Tiger Shroff's Baaghi 4 Box Office Preview/Day 1 Prediction: Eyes Double-Digit Opening

Mumbai, September 4 – Bollywood action star Tiger Shroff's wait is about to end as he returns with the fourth instalment of the action-packed Baaghi franchise, which carries decent buzz ahead of release with its advance booking performance. The film is recording one of the best pre-sales for a Tiger Shroff starrer in the post-pandemic era, generating notable buzz among fans and action lovers. Directed by A Harha, Baaghi 4 pre-sales for the opening day are promising, which indicates an opening in the range of 12–13+ crores net. However, sections of the trade remain cautious, expressing scepticism over these pre-sales, particularly due to the past experience of block bookings that can inflate early numbers. Despite this, trade circles are hopeful that Baaghi 4 could secure a double-digit day 1 opening. If the spot booking response remains good, the movie is projected to land in the 9–11 crores net range on opening day, which would still mark one of Tiger Shroff's stronger starts in recent years. Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, the fourth instalment of the popular action franchise is being closely watched for its box office performance. The Baaghi series has historically opened well thanks to its high-octane action and mass appeal, and Baaghi 4 seems poised to continue the trend, provided it sustains momentum after day 1. With positive early booking trends and fan anticipation, all eyes are now on whether Tiger Shroff’s latest outing can convert its advance sales into solid footfalls and maintain strong collections beyond the opening day. It also stars Sanjay Dutt, Sonam Bajwa, Harnaaz Sandhu, and Shreyash Talpade in prominent roles. Stay tuned...

Multiplex Chains Refuse To Screen Vivek Agnihotri's The Bengal Files In Bengal Under Political Pressure, Makers Allege

Mumbai, September 4 - Director Vivek Agnihotri's much-awaited reality-based political thriller The Bengal Files is facing trouble in getting released in West Bengal amid pressure from the ruling state party, alleges the national award-winning filmmaker. Scheduled to release on September 5, the film presents a storyline focused on the 1946 Great Calcutta Killings and the Noakhali riots, depicting the violence and its aftermath as a genocide, and claiming that these chapters of history were deliberately suppressed or ignored. Ever since the movie was announced, it has been under constant scrutiny for showing the dark truth of Indian history. Now, this scrutiny is leading to the unofficial ban on the film in Bengal, which forced the makers to write an open letter to the President of India, Droupadi Murmu, for urgent intervention. Producer of #TheBengalFiles, Pallavi Joshi, writes an open letter to the President of India:URGENT APPEAL:Your Excellency, @rashtrapatibhvn,"As Producer of #TheBengalFiles, I am pained that multiplex chains in Bengal have refused the film’s release under political pressure… pic.twitter.com/ERTLvqxp3y— Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri (@vivekagnihotri) September 4, 2025 In the letter, producer Pallavi Joshi has alleged that theatre chains in West Bengal are refusing to screen the movie under political pressure. Joshi also alleged that she, along with her family, is threatened every day by the workers of the ruling party under Chief Minister Mamta Banerjee. It is worth noting that similar hurdles were also faced by Agnihotri's The Kashmir Files, which some of the states refused to release, but the film went on to become one of the biggest blockbusters of 2022. It needs to be seen how things unfold for The Bengal Files, which carries similarities with TKF. Produced by Abhishek Agarwal Arts and I Am Buddha Productions, the film stars Mithun Chakraborty, Pallavi Joshi, Darshan Kumar, Simrat Kaur, Anupam Kher, Saswata Chatterjee, Namashi Chakraborty, Rajesh Khera, Puneet Issar, Priyanshu Chatterjee, Dibyendu Bhattacharya, Sourav Das, and Mohan Kapur in key roles.
