Maa Box Office Collection Day 3: Kajol's gripping horror drama wins hearts, earnings rise 12.50%
Maa Box Office Collection Day 3: Kajol's gripping horror drama is winning hearts as its collection recorded an uptick over the weekend. Directed by Vishal Furia, the mythological horror film not only includes themes of motherhood as the title rightfully suggests but also ancient legends and supernatural horror. As the film continues its strong box office run, let's have a look at its numbers. The mythological horror film minted in an estimated ₹ 6.75 crore net at the domestic box office on Day 3, recording 12.50 percent uptick in earnings according to film industry tracker Sacnilk. It amassed a total of ₹ 4.65 crore net on its opening day. Over the first weekend, the movie collected ₹ 12.75 crore net out of which ₹ 6 crore came from Day 2 business. So far, the movie did a business of ₹ 17.4 crore net in India, Sacnilk reported. The filmmakers in a post on Instagram announced that the movie did a business of ₹ 11.19 crore net during its two-day run at the box office. With Kajol in the lead, the star cast features Indraneil Shubhra Sen Gupta, Ronit Dolly Boseroy, Jitin Jyoti Gulati, Dibyendu Bhattacharya, Gopal Singh, Kherin Sharma, Surjyasikha Das, Roopkatha Chakraborty and Yaaneea Bharadwaj in pivotal roles. Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh, who gave 3.5 star rating to the movie, in a post on X stated, '#Maa [#MaaTheFilm] remains super-strong despite facing tough competition from #SitaareZameenPar and #F1TheMovie at urban multiplexes." Taran Adarsh emphasised that Maa could have earned higher revenue if the competition was 'less intense' with other contemporary releases, given horror genre tends to perform well in mass circuits. He added, "With #SZP dominating multiplex screens and showtimes, and #F1TheMovie also performing strongly at metro multiplexes, #Maa would have certainly posted higher numbers if the competition had been less intense and it had received a significantly higher number of shows.' Bollywood movie 'Maa,' which premiered on the silver screen on June 27, will mark its digital debut on OTT platform Netflix. Produced under the banners Devgn Films and Jio Studios, the film is a part of Ajay Devgn's Shaitaan universe.

Olivia Rodrigo's Glastonbury set doubles as date night with Netflix heartthrob
Glastonbury Festival was buzzing with excitement this weekend—not just for the music, but for the festival's most-watched couple: Olivia Rodrigo and her boyfriend, British actor Louis Partridge . Rodrigo, 22, headlined the legendary Pyramid Stage on Sunday night, but before taking the spotlight, she was spotted living her best festival life with Partridge, sending fans and social media into a frenzy. The 'drivers license' singer didn't let the pressure of her headline slot keep her from enjoying the festival. On Saturday, Rodrigo was seen perched on Partridge's shoulders, belting out Pulp's 'Common People' during the band's surprise set—a moment captured by festival-goers and even radio DJ Greg James, who playfully pointed her out in the crowd. The couple's festival antics didn't stop there: they were also seen mingling with Glasto royalty Alexa Chung, cementing their status as the event's coolest couple. Louis Partridge, also 22, is best known for his breakout roles in Netflix 's 'Enola Holmes' films alongside Millie Bobby Brown, as well as parts in 'Paddington 2,' 'Pan,' and the FX miniseries 'Pistol.' He's currently filming the third 'Enola Holmes' movie and recently starred in the miniseries 'Disclaimer' with Cate Blanchett and Kevin Kline. Rodrigo and Partridge have been dating since late 2023, first making headlines for their PDA-filled Halloween night in London, and later going red carpet official at the 'Disclaimer' premiere in August 2024. Since then, the pair have been inseparable—spotted at Premier League matches, strolling through London and New York, and attending the Grammys together. Rodrigo's set at Glastonbury was both electric and personal. She dedicated her song 'so american' to Partridge, telling the crowd she wrote it about falling for a boy from London and all their funny cultural differences. Live Events 'I also really love English boys. I wrote this next song when I was falling for a boy from London, and as we got to know each other, we discovered all these cultural differences. I would tease him about eating a jacket potato with beans, while he would joke about my distinctly American pronunciation—like saying Glaston-berry. So, I turned all of our little inside jokes into a song,' Rodrigo told festival-goers.
