Jurassic World Franchise India Opening Day Comparison: Where does Rebirth land?
Jurassic World: Rebirth Has Opened With Rs 9.15 Crore At The India Box Office, Without Premieres
The new film from the Jurassic franchise, Jurassic World: Rebirth, took a strong opening of Rs 9.15 crore net, despite the showcasing issues that it faced. If not for the showcasing issues, the movie would have certainly opened in the double digits. Let's analyse how the last 3 Jurassic movies before Rebirth, performed at the box office in India, on their opening day.
Jurassic World (2015) Opened To Rs 10.50 Crore Net In India Including Previews
Jurassic World in 2015 caused global meyhem, grossing in the north of USD 1.7 billion worldwide. The movie was a superhit in India, netting close to Rs 90 crore. It premiered with Rs 4.25 crore net on preview Thursday, which when adjusted for inflation, is comfortably above Rs 10 crore net. It blasted with Rs 6.25 crore net on opening Friday and went on to net Rs 30 crore over the weekend.
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018) Opened To Rs 12.80 Crore Net In India Including Previews
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom took a good opening too, netting Rs 5.80 crore on preview Thursday, followed by Rs 7 crore on opening Friday, for a day 1 of Rs 12.80 crore net. The movie netted a little over Rs 70 crore in India, in its full run. Certainly a let down from Jurassic World, but still solid.
Jurassic World: Dominion (2022) Collected Rs 11.50 Crore Net In India Including Previews
Jurassic World: Dominion collected Rs 3.50 crore net on preview Thursday, and then a franchise record Rs 8 crore Friday, for a Rs 11.50 crore net opening. The film's reviews affected it adversely, and it ended with a little over Rs 60 crore net. The falling trajectory of Jurassic World films was not just at the India box office, as the movies went from USD 1.7 billion in 2015 to USD 1 billion in 2022.
The Day 1 India Net Box Office Collection Of Recent Jurassic Movies Is As Under
How Has Jurassic World: Rebirth Opened Vis-à-Vis Other Jurassic Movies?
Jurassic World: Rebirth has taken a franchise record Rs 9.15 crore net Friday start, but it doesn't mean much in the larger scheme of things, as the adjusted collections of the previous parts are higher. A part of the reason is definitely the screen-sharing issues with new and holdover releases. But, the elephant in the room is that the interest in the franchise is declining. No doubt that the opening Jurassic World: Rebirth managed in these conditions is good. But, it's not as great as it could have been. The word of mouth seems better than Dominion, so one would hope that it eclipses the lifetime collections of that film in India, atleast.

Bigg Boss 19 EXCLUSIVE: Ram Kapoor reveals reason for NEVER doing this reality show, 'I'll show them my...'
The anticipation for Bigg Boss 19 continues to grow each day, reaching a peak of excitement. Recently, there were reports suggesting that Ram Kapoor was one of the confirmed contestants for the show. However, in an exclusive interview with us, Ram denied these rumors, stating that he has not been approached for Bigg Boss 19. He recalled turning down the offer years ago, even when a huge amount was offered to him. Ram Kapoor reveals rejecting Bigg Boss offer years ago Ram Kapoor told Pinkvilla, "Towards the beginning of Bigg Boss, many years ago, the creators had offered me a sh*t amount of money, really serious amount of money. They were very surprised when I said no because it was a lot of money." He explained how by accepting this offer, he could have easily made money in three months, which he would have taken him to make in one year. Ram said that a senior creative had come to his house to convince him to participate in the controversial reality show Why did Ram Kapoor reject Bigg Boss offer earlier? The 51-year-old actor explained his reason in detail for not doing the show and said, "I will never ever do a show like Bigg Boss, not because it's a bad show. Those kinds of reality shows are something that I cannot think of doing, because I like to see myself as a trained actor." He explained that he has studied method acting for four years, and his approach to acting is a certain way. Ram continued, "Bigg Boss is a show about voyeurism. People are getting locked up, and you are just watching. There is no talent. You are not singing, dancing or doing anything. It's just voyeurism, which is fine. Everybody who does it, good for them. It is something I cannot ever think of doing." The Mistry actor added, "For example, the kind of person I am, when I enter that house, the first thing I'll say is 'Why am I being made to do things. Excuse me, F off'. I don't go to a house to do this task or that task, I will show them the middle finger. When I am at home, nobody tells me what to do. So, I am the wrong person for it. My mind will never allow me to do a show like Bigg Boss ever." Ram said that he shared this explanation with the makers and denied the offer for the show years ago. He disclosed that he told the makers, "You are offering me great money. But if you offer me Rs 20 crores also, I can't think of doing it." Ram Kapoor recalls Ravi Kishan praising Bigg Boss Ram Kapoor shared how his friends have done Bigg Boss, and one of them is Ravi Kishan. He recalled that Ravi Kishan told him that it was an amazing experience to do a show like Bigg Boss. He recalled, "I remember him talking with great passion. So there's nothing wrong if you do Bigg Boss, if it works for you." He praised his friend Ravi Kishan and said that it's nice that people are doing it, but he has his 'limitations' which don't allow him to do a few things. The Bade Achhe Lagte Hain fame said, "Even if I do a reality show, it has to be a reality show where you have to try and achieve whether it's singing, dancing or something." Ram Kapoor denies being offered for Bigg Boss 19 Refuting rumors of being approached for Bigg Boss 19, Ram Kapoor said, "Nobody approached me because they know they cannot ever approach me." He added, "I was approached more than 10 years back, and that time, I had explained to them that it's not about the money." He said, "Even if you give me Rs 20 cores, I can't think of doing it." Ram Kapoor's web series Mistry was recently released on June 27, and it has been receiving an amazing response from the audience. The web show also features Mona Singh in the lead role.

Naga Vamsi acquires Telugu rights of Jr NTR and Hrithik Roshan's War 2 for Rs 80 crore, promises fans big action spectacle: ‘Time for the hat-trick'
With less than a month to go for its theatrical release, War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR , has already pulled off a major pre-release move in the Telugu market. Well-known producer and distributor Naga Vamsi of Sithara Entertainment has acquired the Telugu distribution rights of the film, reportedly shelling out a massive Rs 80 crore. The action thriller, directed by Ayan Mukerji, is one of the most anticipated releases of the year and a key instalment in the YRF Spy Universe. With the teaser already generating immense buzz, War 2 is scheduled to hit theatres on August 14 in both standard and IMAX formats. Naga Vamsi says War 2 will mark a hat-trick with Jr NTR Reuniting with Jr NTR after previously working on Aravindha Sametha and Devara, Naga Vamsi expressed confidence that War 2 will complete a hat-trick of successes. Taking to Twitter, he wrote: 'Yes... it's War 2... Couldn't be happier to reunite with my dearest @tarak9999 anna.

To maintain the intrigue around Jr NTR and Hrithik Roshan's shared screen presence, the two stars are not appearing together in promotional campaigns. This decision, according to insiders, is designed to heighten audience excitement and preserve the surprise of their on-screen chemistry. Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR to Avoid Joint Promotions for War 2 Produced by Yash Raj Films , War 2 is a sequel to the 2019 blockbuster War. It also continues the interlinked narrative of YRF's Spy Universe, which includes hits like Pathaan and Tiger 3. The screenplay is written by Shridhar Raghavan, with dialogues by Abbas Tyrewala. With a high-octane storyline and massive stakes involved, War 2 could prove to be a defining moment for Telugu distribution, especially if Naga Vamsi's big gamble pays off. While the producer hasn't officially confirmed the Rs 80 crore deal figure, industry sources suggest it marks one of the most expensive Telugu rights acquisitions for a Bollywood film.

Jurassic World Rebirth Movie Review: Mutates back to original form, but not in a spectacular fashion
Set years after the events happened at Isla Nublar, Ile Saint-Hubert is both narratively and geographically distant from the former location. What forms a connection is the corporate firm InGen, which has been running operations at both sites and shifted operations totally to the Ile Saint-Hubert facility after the destruction of the one on Nublar. The introduction of a facility on a different island, run for the same purposes, serves as an apt setup for unleashing new dinosaurs that have undergone such mutations with the potential to wreak more havoc in more unthinkable ways. Characterisation was touch-and-go, as the internal conflict between the team members had the trappings of a subplot worth paying attention to. The group's headspace was effectively established without consuming much time or many scenes. But the makers decide to introduce another picnicking family marooned to tag along with the crew following their rescue. The crew's response to the family illustrates who could be who and do what in dire situations. But this play was entirely possible within the team. The family of Reuben Delgado (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo), Teresa Delgado (Luna Blaise), Isabella Delgado (Audrina Miranda), and David Iacono (Xavier Dobbs) merely occupy the screen and some screentime, adding less value to the narration. The scary scenes involving little Isabella do cause tension and drama, but Zora's team isn't in any way more equipped than the family. In a battle against a creature that is superior in strength and size to any human, the child-baiting to create a thrill seemed unnecessary. This choice renders all the characters weak, preventing us from establishing an emotional connection with any of them. Neither the four primary characters nor the four other characters are explored sufficiently. If Jurassic World plans to expand, subsequent to Rebirth, the bad news is that all the characters blend into the background. Scarlett's Zora is the only role to have an arc. But it looks forced. She is this money-minded adventurer in one scene and, scenes later, wants to stop their samples from getting patented to prevent profiteering by one corporation. What brings this profound change in her? We are left waiting for answers, to no avail.
