Box Office: Sitaare Zameen Par performs better than new releases F1 and Maa on second Friday; Three films aggregate Rs 15.75 crore
The Aamir Khan-led Sitaare Zameen Par was the top pick for the cinema-going audience today, as the RS Prasanna directorial has collected in the range of Rs 6.25 crore on the second Friday, taking total collections to Rs 93.75 crore. The film has performed better than the two new releases – F1 and Maa – on its second Friday, which signifies a long run in the weeks to come. The second Friday hold has confirmed a hit status for the Aamir Khan film, as it is headed for a finish in the north of Rs 150 crore in India.
The Brad Pitt starrer F1 was the second-best performing film of the week, as the sport thriller has clocked Rs 5.00 crore on Friday. The film has overperformed vis-à-vis expectations, and is headed to emerge a solid success story in India, as a big jump is definitely on cards for the Brad Pitt starrer. 2025 has been good for Hollywood films, and F1 has just added itself to the list of success stories from the West.
The third best performer of the day was the Kajol led horror thriller, which has also done well on the opening day, with first day business in the range of Rs 4.00 crore to Rs 4.50 crore. The film suffered in advance bookings due to a fractured release, but did well on the day with strong walk-ins to make up for the relatively slow movement in advance bookings. The Ajay Devgn and Jio Studios produced film has also laid the platform to show big jumps over the weekend, and place itself in a spot to emerge a success story.
All in all, it was a good day for the exhibitors with 3 films aggregating Rs 15.75 crore on a working Friday, which is a great result. With Jurassic World, and Superman slated to release in the coming 2 weeks, the victory run is expected to continue at the box-office.

Aamir Khan says he did not direct any film after 'Taare Zameen Par' because he loves acting a lot
Aamir Khan , the 'Perfectionist' of Bollywood, has been a prolific actor in the entertainment industry who dares to bring new perspectives and not-so-explored ideas to the silver screen for many years. Aamir Khan won't direct because he loves acting... In an interview with Pinkvilla, when asked about why the 60-year-old has not explored being a filmmaker after directing the blockbuster 'Taare Zameen Par,' Khan responded by stating that he prefers acting. 'The reason that I have not directed a film since Taare Zameen Par is because I love acting a lot,' Aamir said. Furthermore, the 'Lagaan' actor said that if he were to start directing films, he would simply leave acting. Khan perceives that being a director or filmmaker of the project is so much more interesting than acting could make him feel bored. 'Mai uss type ka aadmi hun ki agar main bore ho raha hun toh main kaam nahi kar paata (I'm that type of person that if I get bored, I cannot work),' the actor claimed. When Aamir directed the 2007 film, it was not because of his willingness but a necessity. Previously, he had no intention of directing the film, but there was a crisis, leading him to take the film into his own hands. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Additionally, Khan stated that if he were to ever direct a film again, he would not engage himself in the acting business.
