Jurassic World: Rebirth collects USD 162 million globally in 3 days; Scarlett Johansson film crushes negativity at worldwide box office
Jurassic World: Rebirth, will now aim for a lifetime cume of USD 800-900 million, a very solid start to the new reboot
Jurassic World: Rebirth may not do the billion dollars that the previous three installments managed, but it can still get to USD 800-900 million if the word of mouth of the movie holds up. There can be a number of reasons for the movie to not do USD 1 billion; mainly the contraction of China's market for Hollywood movies. The drop is of over 60 percent from how much movies used to do in the big box office market, before the pandemic.
Rebirth Has Done Well In India So Far, With Rs 21 Crore Net In 2 Days
Rebirth has performed well in India, in its first two days. After opening to Rs 8.25 crore net, the movie grew to Rs 12.75 crore net on day 2, for a total of Rs 21 crore. By the end of the weekend, it should have added around Rs 34 - 35 crore net in total, if not more. It must be noted that the movie faced screen-sharing issues, and if not for that, the weekend numbers could have been pushing towards Rs 40 crore. Nevertheless, the business that Rebirth has managed is a proper indication that Indians love Jurassic World movies. Maybe not as much as Jurassic Park in the mid-90s, but still enough to suggest to the makers to keep making such movies.
Jurassic World Movies Are Critic-Proof But...
Jurassic World movies are certainly critic-proof and online negativity proof. One would hope that the upcoming films from the franchise try harder to fulfill the expectations of the franchise's loyalists, since a lot of the tropes that used to be exciting, are slowly getting redundant. If that happens, there's a possibility that the next part grosses more than Rebirth, and breaks the cycle of Jurassic World movie collections going down with every film.

How Horror comedies continue to enjoy a strong Run at the Indian box office
Picture Credit: Facebook Horror comedy films are popular, a genre that has spine-chilling thrills with rib-tickling humour. Once considered a niche or lowbrow genre, horror comedies have emerged as box office juggernauts nowadays. Films like 'Stree 2', 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and 3' and 'Subham,' have raked in impressive earnings. A box office bonanza The year 2024 had some impressive Indian horror comedies, with films like 'Stree 2' and 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3' shattering box office records. According to a report by trade analyst Sacnilk, 'Stree 2', directed by Amar Kaushik, grossed over Rs 857 crore worldwide, making it the highest-grossing Hindi-language film of 2024 and the ninth-highest-grossing Hindi film of all time. The film's success, including a staggering Rs 200-crore collection in just four days, shows how the genre has found its newfound dominance. Similarly, 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3', directed by Anees Bazmee, earned Rs 371–423.85 crore globally, securing its place as the second-highest-grossing Hindi film of 2024, despite competing with Rohit Shetty's 'Singham Again' during the Diwali season. Even the smaller flicks, take 'Subham,' for example, produced by Samantha Ruth Prabhu , made her production debut, and found favour with audiences. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Start Here - 2025 Top Trend Local network access control Esseps Learn More Undo Viewers have actually been raving about it online, calling it a solid horror comedy. The film has been praised by viewers as a good horror comedy with a crisp runtime and a message conveyed in a better way. Now, flip to the other side, there's also anticipation for 'The Raja Saab', a Telugu horror comedy featuring superstar Prabhas. There has been a 41,256 square feet of haunted mansion set built, and the cast includes names like Nidhhi Agerwal and Malavika Mohanan. The movie's dropping December 5, 2025. Why horror comedy resonates with Indian audiences Man, horror comedies have really hit a sweet spot with Indian audiences lately. Maybe a horror movie can be too much, too intense, but you toss in some laughs with some humour, and it sort of works like magic. As per a Times of India report, 'Stree 2' and 'Munjya' writer Niren Bhatt explains, "Horror has always been associated with disturbing your mind… But our films are family films, even five-year-old kids enjoy Munjya and Stree 2, and their success is the victory of good storytelling. " These movies aren't just about jump scares; they're about good old-fashioned storytelling, which is why families keep flocking to theatres. These movies don't just slap ghosts on the screen and call it a day. They dig into legends and urban myths. Take 'Stree 2' for example, straight outta Karnataka's "Nale Ba" legend, but with a modern twist and that whole "O Stree Kal Aana" vibe. 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3' does its own thing too, pulling in Bengali folklore, with its haunted castle and mischievous priests. Director Anees Bazmee, in an interview with the BBC, emphasised his vision: "I wanted them to be on the edge of their seats but never truly scared, like a roller-coaster ride—happy on the ascent, with a thrill of fear on the descent. " The genre's community-viewing appeal further enhances its success. Actor Abhishek Banerjee, who starred in both 'Stree' and 'Stree 2', told The Times of India, "Horror comedies are the best community viewing experience… It has fantasy, which is the in-thing after 'Baahubali,' and by adding horror and comedy, that's three genres in one film." This trifecta of fantasy, horror, and comedy, combined with relatable small-town settings, has made these films a cultural phenomenon. From 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa' to 'Stree' One can trace that back to 2007 when 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa' hit the screens. Yeah, that one, Priyadarshan's take on the Malayalam original, 'Manichitrathazhu'. The film had some goofy laughs and horror moments, which got Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan to absolutely own their roles, becoming an instant classic. As 'Munjya' director Aditya Sarpotdar noted, as per a BBC report, "Bhool Bhulaiyaa was our first horror-comedy success that established a successful formula." However, it was 'Stree' in 2018 that truly refreshed the genre. Its Rs 129.90 crore box office haul proved that horror comedies could be both critically and commercially successful. The success of Stree made the way for the Maddock Supernatural Universe, which now includes 'Bhediya', 'Munjya,' and 'Stree 2', with upcoming films like 'Stree 3' and 'Thama' in the pipeline. 'Stree 2' features cameos from Bhediya's Varun Dhawan . Producer Dinesh Vijan confirmed that 'Stree 3', featuring Akshay Kumar as the antagonist Sarkata, is already in development. The upcoming 'The Raja Saab', directed by Maruthi, marks a significant departure for Prabhas, known for action epics like 'Baahubali' and 'Kalki 2898 AD'. Described as a "glamorous, entertaining, and colorful" horror comedy, the film will have supernatural elements, romance, and humour. The movie is all set to release at the end of the year.

Metro In Dino Box Office Collection Day 3: Aditya Roy Kapur-Sara Ali Khan's Film Crosses Rs 15 Crore Mark
New Delhi: Metro In Dino, directed by Anurag Basu, premiered on the big screens on July 4. The film had a modest opening of Rs 3.5 crore on its first day. Now, the romantic drama has crossed the Rs 15-crore mark following a boost from its weekend collections. On Day 3 (July 6), Metro In Dino minted Rs 7.25 crore at the ticket window, as per a report by industry tracker Sacnilk. With this, the movie's total box office collection now stands at Rs 16.75 crore. Metro In Dino 'had an overall 39.75 percent Hindi occupancy' rate on its first Sunday, added the report.

Meanwhile, the night shows recorded 39.27 percent and the morning slots stood at 15.98 percent. On July 6, film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared a post on Instagram highlighting that Metro In Dino might face tough competition from two Hollywood releases — Jurassic World Rebirth and F1: The Movie. He wrote, ' Metro In Dino witnesses solid Saturday growth [68.15%]. All eyes are now on Sunday for a further spike in footfall and numbers. The Sunday business is crucial to make up for the initial shortfall and ensure a healthy weekend total.' Taran Adarsh added, ' Metro In Dino continues to perform best in urban centres, its core target audience. However, the response from mass circuits remains below par. Additionally, stiff competition from the Hollywood biggies – Jurassic World Rebirth and F1 The Movie – is impacting its potential in metros.'
