F1 Day 11 India Box Office: Brad Pitt starrer establishes firm grip on 2nd Monday; Adds a spectacular Rs 2.40 crore net
F1, directed by Joseph Kosinski and starring Brad Pitt, Kerry Condon, Damson Idris, Javier Bardem and others, added another Rs 2.25 - 2.50 crore net at the Indian box office on day 11. With this, the collections of F1 -The Movie stand at around Rs 51.90 crore net, a number that no one would have even imagined. The film is on course for a Rs 70 crore plus net lifetime total. It can do more and these are just conservative estimates. The India Net Collections Of F1 Are As Under F1 Collects Rs 2.40 Crore Net On 2nd Monday; To Lose IMAX Screens To Superman The Coming Friday F1 loses IMAX screens to Superman this Friday. Superman will keep the IMAX screens to itself for a good couple of weeks. That's the reason the lifetime India net estimates are at a conservative Rs 70 crore. If not for the stacked IMAX scheduling, F1 could keep getting audiences for weeks. Now, the week 3 and week 4 performance of F1 in India will be interesting to observe, when all it has is standard screens and other premium screens apart from IMAX to generate business from. Even in the standard screens, it will have to compete with a bunch of different holdover as well as new releases. F1's Word Of Mouth Is Incredibly Strong, As Suggested By The Minimal Drop In Collections Every Day Coming back to F1's 2nd Monday collections, even if the movie collected Rs 2.40 crore on its opening day, it would be considered as a good result. For it to do this on day 11, speaks volumes of the strong word of mouth that it is enjoying. It is far from exhausting its audience, yet. Brad Pitt, after a turbulent recent run at the movies, is back with a bang. F1 Is Projected To End Its Run In The USD 500 Million Vicinity F1 is projected to gross USD 500 million worldwide in its lifetime. It crossed USD 300 million globally on 2nd Monday and there's no fatigue to be seen. The competition with Jurassic World: Rebirth resulted in division of screens and interest, but the occupancies are still at an astoundingly high level. F1 In Theatres F1 plays in theatres now. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more box office updates on F1.

Rashmika Mandanna Says She's Open To Long Shoot Hours Amid Deepika Padukone's Spirit Row: 'Personal Choice'
Last Updated: Rashmika Mandanna reacts to ongoing debate on working hours amid Deepika Padukone's exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit. The conversation around long working hours in the Indian film industry continues to grow louder—and actor Rashmika Mandanna is the latest star to weigh in. Her comments come amid a wave of reactions following reports of Deepika Padukone's alleged fallout with director Sandeep Reddy Vanga over fixed work schedules on the now-shelved Spirit. Addressing the controversy, Mandanna spoke about the importance of clear communication before signing on to a film, during an interview with Mojo Story. 'Today the whole country is debating about flexible hours, but that is for discussion amongst the teams and figuring out what works for them. It's their personal choices," she said, stressing that mutual understanding within the team is key. The Animal actor also reflected on her cross-industry experience, pointing out how shooting schedules differ across regions. 'I do work in multiple industries, like the South – Telugu, Kannada, or Tamil, where we work 9 am to 6 pm. In Hindi, it's a 9 am to 9 pm shift. I am open to both because this is what my film requires," she shared. But she didn't shy away from addressing the more extreme side of filming schedules. 'Some films you can start 9 am to 9 pm, but they carry on till the next day, so you're working like 36 hours. There are much worse scenarios happening where you are working 2-3 days without going home," Mandanna revealed. Deepika Padukone-Sandeep Reddy Vanga Spirit Controversy The issue was recently brought to the forefront after reports surfaced that Deepika Padukone opted out of Spirit due to disagreements over her request for fixed hours. Deepika, a new mother, is reportedly seeking to balance her work and personal life by reducing her working hours. This decision led to her exit from the film, which would have been her second collaboration with Prabhas after their recent project, Kalki 2898 AD. The situation sparked industry-wide discussions about actor welfare and reasonable work conditions. Following Deepika's exit, Triptii Dimri was confirmed to play a part in the film. Mandanna, who worked with Vanga on the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Animal, acknowledged the broader need for realistic expectations, especially in high-pressure shoots. Rashmika Mandanna was most recently seen in Kuberaa, which released on June 20. First Published:

One-take movie by Iranian director among 98 films competing at fest
1 2 Kolkata: Ninety-eight films, exploring diverse subjects, such as AI, the desire for hilsa in a patriarchal household and Kolkata's music shop, are vying for the top awards at the 8th South Asian Short Film Festival that started at Nandan on Monday. Among the entries at the festival, launched by the Federation of Film Societies of India (Eastern Region), is a single-take film—'Spasm' —by an Iranian director and an Indian producer. Directed by Sahra Asadollahi and produced by Deepankar Prakash, the short film, 'Spasm', is about what happens when a woman who has never acted in film goes for an audition that becomes a test of more than just her acting ability. "I met Sahra at a festival in Nepal in 2023. Soon, we decided to collaborate and started work on this 27-minute-long film. Sahra, an actor in Iran, shot the film completely in Tehran, while I was in India. She herself played the role of the woman in the film," said Prakash, whose 'Naanera' had won in the competition on Indian Language's Films at the Kolkata International Film Festival in 2022.

From her father's horse to her 10-month-old baby—questions are flung at her from all quarters. Finally, a situation arises where she is compelled to believe she is rejected. But the situation takes a different turn when she is told the confrontation was deliberately orchestrated to evaluate her acting skill. In recent times, the long single-take shooting approach, especially after the success of 'Adolescence', has got cine enthusiasts talking. 'Spasm' is the first one-take film in competition at the South Asian Short Film Festival. What makes this film engaging is how minimalism has been effectively used to counter the challenges of filming by a woman director in Iran. Shot inside one room with minimal production and sound design, 'Spasm' features only an animated Asadollahi seated in front of the camera. The camera angle is such that the faces of no other cast member, including the director and the producer, are visible. For many independent film-makers, who complain about shortage of funds and lack of infrastructure in this city, the film is a lesson on how big ideas, not big budgets, are important for good cinema. "Sahra is unable to come to Kolkata now because of the situation in her country. But I will be at the festival," Prakash added.
