Sitaare Zameen Par adds Rs 2.60 crore net in its fifth weekend
The Aamir Khan movie has fetched Rs 2.60 crore in its fifth weekend, while facing the new juggernaut at the box office- Saiyaara. The sports-drama clocked over Rs 87.50 crore net in its opening week, followed by Rs 44.50 crore net in its second week and Rs 17.25 crore net in the third week. The movie added Rs 8.65 crore net in the fourth week.
Further, it entered the fifth week by collecting Rs 50 lakh on Friday, followed by Rs 90 lakh on Saturday. As per estimates, it hits around Rs 1.20 crore net on its fifth Sunday, taking the total cume to Rs 160.50 crore net at the Indian box office.
The movie met with positive word-of-mouth at the box office, which worked in its favor. However, the movie had its limitations for an urban-centric audience, which is why it couldn't make a big impact at the box office. Sitaare Zameen Par is heading to wrap its theatrical run somewhere between Raid 2 and Housefull 5's lifetime earnings. For the unversed, the Ajay Devgn movie has collected Rs 165 crore, while Akshay Kumar's comedy sequel has grossed Rs 167 crore in its entire run.

4 must-read memoirs that explore healing through travel
The Salt Path, a memoir written by Raynor Winn, had been in the spotlight recently due to allegations regarding misleading information. Published in 2018, the novel received a movie adaptation last year. It follows the story of Winn and her husband, Moth, as they walk 630 miles along the South West Coast Path in UK following the repossession of their house and Moth's diagnosis of corticobasal degeneration, a terminal illness. Grieving the loss of a home, and confronting the devastating news about Moth's illness, the journey is not merely physical, but an emotionally resonant journey about healing and renewal. Winn's description of the natural world accompanies a personal narrative and philosophical musings in this memoir. Here are a few more books that are centred around a journey that marks renewal and transformation: Four years after the death of her mother, Cheryl Strayed decided to go on an eleven hundred mile long hike along the Pacific Crest trail despite not having any prior long hiking experience. Published in 2012, Wild: From Lost to Found (Atlantic Books, pages 336, Rs 499) is the story of Strayed as she navigates her way not just through the hiking trail, but also through her grief. With humour interspersed between the reflective and vulnerable prose, like the title suggests, Wild is a memoir about finding oneself after feeling lost. Spiralling into alcoholism and chaos in London, Amy Liptrot returns to her childhood home in the Orkney Islands following her rehabilitation. The Outrun is a memoir that charts Liptrot's journey from the chaos of city life to her gradual recovery as she reconnects with here hometown and the nature that surrounds it. The lyrical prose blends a deeply personal narrative with illustrative nature writing as Liptrot describes the crashing waves, the auroras, and the puffins. Following the hustle of city life, Liptrot reconnects with herself and the natural world as it turns into a solace for her. This memoir deals with an issue that is not merely personal, but also engrained in society, Following a racially motivated attack, Anita Sethi embarks on a journey across the Pennines, known as the backbone of Britain. The attack which assailed the rights of Sethi because of her race deeply traumatised her, and through each step she takes Sethi reclaims her space in the country as she contemplates about identity and belonging. I Belong Here (Bloomsbury Wildlife, pages 320, Rs 555) is a personal memoir that talks about racism, trauma, and healing. Unlike the other books mentioned on this list, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry (Penguin, pages 416, Rs 919) by Rachel Joyce is a fictional novel that follows Harold Fry as he embarks on a six hundred mile long journey on foot. On a seemingly usual day Harold receives a goodbye letter from an old friend he hasn't heard from in years. As he walks to the post office to send a reply, an encounter convinces him that he must deliver the letter in person and he sets off on an expedition to see his friend. En route he meets strangers and witnesses the lives of ordinary people as he looks back on his life and the events that steered the course of his life.

Rajesh Kumar criticises ‘Bollywood hierarchy', says ‘had a human conversation' with Dimple Kapadia: ‘Sitting on same couch as stars difficult at times, can't only appreciate…'
There are a plethora of actors in the industry who were great theatre or TV artistes and gave memorable performances in Bollywood doing character roles. Actor Rajesh Kumar of Sarabhai vs Sarabhai fame is one such name, and even though he took a sabbatical from acting to focus on his passion for farming, he is now back with Mohit Suri's blockbuster hit Saiyaara featuring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda. In a recent interview, the actor talked about his journey in Bollywood and stated that the industry has always worked on a 'hierarchy system', something which he believes should change. While talking to Galatta media, Rajesh talked about this 'hierarchy system' and expressed his dislike for how it reduces artistes to numbers and metrics. He said, 'The hierarchy system has always existed in Bollywood, and I felt it while working. In terms of how an actor gets treated according to their star value, that metric only takes into account the amount of money they are bringing in or how much people like them. I feel that the system is now changing and evolving with the new generation.' ALSO READ: After being rejected by Shark Tank India, Rajesh Kumar takes indirect dig at Anupam Mittal: 'You can get two people married, make money but…' The actor admitted that sometimes the existence of this unsaid structure becomes too apparent, especially when the lead actor themselves give in to it and don't collaborate properly with their co-stars. 'I used to feel this system really bear on me, even a few years back. One might be respected as an actor, but even sitting on the same couch becomes difficult. I want to meet the person who decides who is the big actor and who is the smaller one. I mean, some actors will just go and rehearse with the writer and will tell you that changes at the last moment, and I don't think that is right.' Rajesh added that the actors need to converse and connect outside the scene they are shooting and gave the example of newcomer Aneet, who he talked with extensively to create the emotional bond which would be required to play her father. Even though he was more appreciative of the younger generation, he did recall one example from the past, involving the extremely talented Dimple Kapadia, who, according to him, made the actors around her seen. Rajesh said, 'I will tell you one incident involving Dimple Kapadia ji, and I think it was a beautiful moment for me. We were shooting in Jaisalmer, and we were all sitting around her talking about her work. After a few minutes she stops us and says, 'Enough about me; can I know something about you guys?' That is when you have a real conversation, because just sitting around appreciating someone is different, and an actual human conversation is totally different. That is something missing from our industry, and we don't understand how someone else's story can help us in our own journey.' Whether the structure survives or not, Rajesh, along with Suri and Yash Raj Studios, is currently enjoying the box-office success of Saiyaara.
