All of 2024, most movies have struggled to have these kinds of numbers even in their entire lifetime.

While 2023 saw many mega blockbusters (Pathaan, Gadar 2, Jawan and Animal), this year had only two.

Just when it seemed that Bollywood had recovered with multiple big hits in 2023, it all came down in 2024 with a flurry of flops, disasters and mega disasters.

It's raining records for Pushpa: The Rule.

Analysts estimate that Pushpa 2 (in all languages) will become the fastest film to cross the Rs 1,000 crore (Rs 10 billion) mark.

The Hindi version of Pushpa 2 has taken a start of Rs 70 crore* (Rs 700 million) and that's as huge as it gets.

Trade circles feel Allu Arjun's Pushpa: The Rule will go past the first day numbers of Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan, when it releases on December 5.

2003's Kal Ho Naa Ho is still winning hearts!

The Sabarmati Report is quite close to Vikrant Massey's biggest opener 12th Fail that had netted Rs 6.70 crore (Rs 67 million) before going on to hit a half century.

Diwali releases Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 scored big and entered the Rs 200 Crore (Rs 2 billion) Club before the close of the second weekend.

Between the two films, more than Rs 225 crore (Rs 2.25 billion) comfortably came in the first three days itself.

As is always the case with big films, there is no decision on the count of screens allotted to the big releases, Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.

In terms of the opening day, Rohit Shetty's film may take the lead since he has assembled a big star cast and each one will bring their own fanbase. On the other hand, the Kartik Aaryan-starrer will entice an audience of its own, since, as a franchise, Bhool Bhulaiyaa has done quite well.

It was a very poor weekend for Bollywood as just about Rs 10 crore (Rs 100 million) came in.

Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video managed to do better than Jigra as it is more massy in its treatment and presentation.

All eyes are now on the Diwali releases Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and Singham Again.

After a flurry of flops and disasters -- Tumbbad bringing in a whiff of fresh air despite being a re-release -- Devara has managed to bring audiences back to theatres.

After Jawan, it has emerged as the second Hindi film to enter the Rs 600 Crore (Rs 6 billion) Club.

It was a low weekend for Yudhra as Rs 8 crore (Rs 80 million) came in at the box office.

Tumbbad got the best collections at the box office last weekend.
