F1 Worldwide Collection: Brad Pitt's Racing Film Close To USD 500 Million Mark
The film has now surpassed the overall collection of Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga's A Star is Born, Matt Damon's The Bourne Ultimatum and Keanu Reeves' John Wick: Chapter 4.
F1, the Brad Pitt-starrer racing film, is unstoppable at the box office. Helmed by Joseph Kosinski, the film, released on June 27, inches close to the USD 500 Million mark at the global box office after its third week. According to Collider, F1 has now grossed a total of USD 460 million worldwide with USD 155 million domestically and another USD 307 million from overseas markets.
With such big numbers, the film has now surpassed the overall collection of Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga's A Star is Born, Matt Damon's The Bourne Ultimatum and Keanu Reeves' John Wick: Chapter 4, which concluded its global run with USD 447 million.
As far as the India collection is concerned, according to sacnilk.com, the film opened to a decent Rs 5.25 crore net on day 1, including early shows. It currently stands at a Rs 80 crore net in India now, and is still going strong in week 4.
Apart from Pitt, the film also features an ensemble cast including Kerry Condon, Damson Idris, Javier Bardem, Lewis Hamilton and Simone Ashley among others.
The film follows the story of Sonny Hayes, a retired Formula One driver who makes a comeback to the sport. He joins the fictional APXGP team as a mentor to a young, promising driver, Joshua Pearce. The film explores themes of legacy, mentorship and the intense world of Formula One racing, both on and off the track.
F1 is now also Apple's highest-grossing film to date, leaving behind Killers of the Flower Moon (USD 158m), Napoleon (USD 221m) and Argylle (USD 96m).
The strong word of mouth from the audience has resulted positively for the makers of F1 despite tough competition with films like Scarlett Johansson's Jurassic Park: Rebirth and David Corenswet's Superman.
In the coming week, the competition is expected to get more intense with Pedro Pascal's The Fantastic Four: First Steps set to be released in theatres on July 25.
Looking at the film's massive collection, speculations around the F1 sequel are surfacing online. However, an official announcement from the makers is still awaited.

Ravi Shastri Cracks Everyone Up With Wholesome Jab At Farokh Engineer; Nasser Hussain Joins In: WATCH
Curated By : Siddarth Sriram Last Updated: July 23, 2025, 20:30 IST Ravi Shastri with Farokh Engineer (PTI Photo) Cricket often transcends the boundary ropes, and the first day of the fourth Test between India and England at Old Trafford in Manchester was a perfect example. While the on-field action drew attention, it was a legendary off-field presence—Farokh Engineer—that truly lit up the day. Old Trafford witnessed a historic moment as Engineer, the iconic Indian wicketkeeper and Lancashire stalwart, became the first Indian cricketer to have a stand named after him in England. His name now adorns a stand at the ground alongside another celebrating West Indies legend Sir Clive Lloyd—marking a proud moment for Indian cricket history. Now 87 years old and recently recovered from aortic valve replacement surgery in June, Engineer has returned to his routine and made a high-profile appearance as a VIP guest during the ongoing Lord's Test. His presence at Old Trafford during the Manchester Test added a nostalgic layer to the day's events. As the broadcast camera caught Engineer in the stands on Day 1, the commentary box lit up with warmth and humor. Ravi Shastri, spotting the former gloveman on screen, couldn't resist sharing a fond and cheeky tribute. 'Farokh (Engineer). A real pin-up boy in the '60s and '70s. Hugely popular, and he's not changed over the years. A great storyteller and a voracious eater even now. At lunch, his plate will be full," Shastri quipped, clearly speaking with nothing but affection and admiration. Not one to miss a beat, Nasser Hussain jumped in with a perfectly timed joke that sent the commentary team into laughter. 'He'll be just behind you in that all-day buffet queue, Ravi," Hussain said, poking fun at Shastri's own famously hearty appetite. It was a moment of levity and camaraderie—reminiscent of the spirit that has made cricket more than just a game for fans around the world. India In Control During Initial Stages of Fourth Test Back on the pitch, India made a solid start to the fourth Test. Openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul safely negotiated a probing spell from Chris Woakes, guiding India to 78 without loss at lunch on a cloudy Wednesday morning. Despite the fact that no team has ever won at Old Trafford after choosing to bowl first, England captain Ben Stokes opted to send India in on a pitch with early movement. Swipe Left For Next Video View all The strategy seemed to pay off shortly after the lunch break as both Indian openers were dismissed in quick succession, allowing Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan to take center stage. With the momentum in India's favor early on, the middle-order pair will aim to consolidate and build on the platform laid by the openers.

Anurag Kashyap Supports Songs Of Forgotten Trees, India's Official Entry to Venice Film Festival
Anurag Kashyap supports Anuparna Roy's debut film Songs of Forgotten Trees, premiering at the 82nd Venice Film Festival, starring Naaz Shaikh and Sumi Baghel. Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap has extended his support to Songs of Forgotten Trees, a powerful new film by debutant director Anuparna Roy, by joining the project as presenter. The film has earned a significant milestone, being the only Indian title selected for a world premiere at the 82nd Venice International Film Festival. The festival is scheduled to take place from August 27 to September 6 at Venice Lido, Italy. Songs of Forgotten Trees will be screened in the Orizzonti section, which showcases global cinema that reflects fresh voices, innovative styles, and independent storytelling. The film stars Naaz Shaikh and Sumi Baghel in lead roles and is produced by Bibhanshu Rai, Romil Modi, and Ranjan Singh, with co-production by Navin Shetty and Roy herself. Kashyap, known for championing emerging voices in Indian cinema, said in a statement: 'I have always believed in backing new talent, especially those who want to say something different, challenge the set norms by their ideas and beliefs… Anuparna is definitely one such voice and we feel proud and happy to back her first feature." Set in Mumbai, the film explores the evolving dynamic between two migrant women—Thooya, an aspiring actress navigating the city's chaos through charm and survival instincts, and Swetha, a corporate professional who becomes her unexpected housemate. According to the official synopsis, what begins as a shared living arrangement slowly unfolds into a deeper connection shaped by empathy, vulnerability, and past traumas. Roy, who self-financed the film while juggling three corporate jobs, said the narrative was deeply personal. 'Despite having one of the largest film industries in the world by volume, we rarely tell stories of the marginalised—of those excluded by class, caste, and gender," she shared. The story was born from Roy's search for her childhood friend Jhuma Nath, a survivor of child marriage. 'This film carries her memories," Roy added.
