Jonas, the post-show "blues" can be equally as brutal, reports 'People' magazine.
Kevin, 37, recently spoke about the emotional toll that an international tour can take on musicians, especially coming off of the high of constant action and adrenaline.
He told 'People', "All the depression, blues, it's real, especially after a tour. After our last tour, we did over 100 and something shows, it was too many, and we ended up in Europe. I got on my plane to come home after I believe 130 shows or something, and I got on my flight, which was delayed terribly, which is never fun (sic)".
The Jonas Brothers recently went on their seventh world tour, 'THE TOUR', last fall in promotion of their sixth studio album, 'The Album'.
As per 'People', the tour concluded in Krakow, Poland, on October 16, 2024, which was the last show of the band's European leg.

He further mentioned, "I took the first flight out from Poland to go through Munich to get home and (was) delayed for like seven hours, and then they had make a random stop in Nova Scotia.

So it literally took me like an extra 18 hours to get home, and I was already fatigued and burnt out by the time I got home".
"My wife was like 'Something's wrong with you, are you okay?' I actually had to go start talking to a therapist about it, how to process the highs and the lows, it's so jarring", he added.
The musician mused about the toll all artists take on, especially his brother Nick, 32, who is currently starring in the Broadway musical 'The Last Five Years'. The show tells a nonlinear tale of two lovers, a novelist named Jamie (played by Nick) and an actress named Cathy (played by
Adrienne Warren
), as they explore the beginning, middle, and ultimate end of their relationship through song.
"(Nick) really has to live in this and I think he takes it home with him too, which is really hard if you know the show. It's emotional", Kevin said noting that he probably wouldn't be up for a Broadway stint himself.

Mithun Chakraborty once outshone Amitabh Bachchan, says film exhibitor: ‘He charged ₹1 lakh a day'

Known as Hindi cinema's original 'Disco Dancer', Mithun Chakraborty enjoyed unprecedented popularity in the 1980s and 90s. He often challenged the industry's stereotypical image of a Bollywood hero. Despite not fitting the conventional mould, Mithun became a bankable star whose films were a lifeline for many single-screen theatres, especially in regions like Bihar. Mithun Chakraborty, a major figure in Hindi cinema during the 80s and 90s, defied conventional hero standards. How Mithun kept the single screens alive In a recent episode of the Digital Commentary podcast, Vishek Chauhan, owner of Roopbani Cinema—one of Bihar's oldest theatres—shared how Mithun's stardom kept the business afloat during challenging times. 'Mithun is a legend, no matter what anyone says. There was a time when he gave us two films every month. Every Mithun film opened with 100% occupancy. We knew the week would be good if it were his movie. Mithun Chakravarthy ne single screeen ko sambhala hua tha jab Bollywood dheere dheere apni elitist daur me nikal gaya tha (Mithun Chakraborty had kept single-screen cinemas alive when Bollywood slowly drifted into its elitist phase)," said Vishek. "There was a period between 85-90 when Mithun Chakraborthy was rubbing shoulders with the top. Sometimes, people would place him above Amitabh Bachchan, that Mithun has become so big and given so many hits, so he has seen that kind of stardom too," Vishek added. Vishak also highlighted the unique business model behind Mithun's films. Shot primarily in Ooty and often produced by Rajeev Babbar, the movies were low-budget but profitable. He explained that Mithun would charge ₹1 lakh a day, but filming had to be in Ooty. The crew would stay at the Monarch Hotel, which he owned. The film would reach the theatre owners in Ooty. Mithun's latest work Mithun recently starred the rom-com legal drama Shreeman vs Shreemati which released in May this year. He is also featured in Vivek Agnihotri's historical-political film The Bengal Files: Right To Life, set to release on September 5, 2025

BMC is a collaborator in Mumbai's film industry: Gagrani

MUMBAI: For the first time ever, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has stepped into the world of entertainment, not as a regulator, but as a facilitator. A coffee table book on Mumbai's cinematic legacy and a green filming handbook was launched at the symposium. (Photo by BMC) Municipal Commissioner Bhushan Gagrani said the BMC's involvement in the film industry is not about control, but about collaboration. 'Let me make it clear today that BMC is not here as an organiser but as a participant,' he said, at a meet hosted by the BMC in collaboration with Mumbai – City of Film and the UNESCO Creative Cities Network, on Wednesday. Titled the 'Role of Film Industry in Mumbai's Economic Development', the event is part of Mumbai's designation as a UNESCO Creative City of Film in 2019. Gagrani spelt out the civic body's vision to support and strengthen Mumbai's entertainment ecosystem. He said that while the municipality has played the role of service provider and stakeholder in various other sectors, this is the first time the BMC is formally engaging with the entertainment industry. With a cultural legacy that spans Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati cinema and theatre, and now OTT platforms, Mumbai has a unique place on the global entertainment map. 'The city's soft power comes from this very magic of storytelling, which deserves civic support,' Gagrani said. 'Historically, BMC has had little to no direct involvement in the entertainment space, especially when it comes to film production, live events, or post-production,' he added. 'That's about to change.' Gagrani mentioned how the BMC's vast infrastructure can intersect with the logistics of filming and live events. The BMC is now looking at how best to support an industry that contributes over ₹25,000 crore to the economy and employs more than 5 lakh people, Gagrani said. As part of its new approach, the BMC will streamline and thus ease the process of shooting in the city. This includes offering one-window, pre-approved permissions, the ability to book locations online, and access to a variety of public spaces for filming, including lakes, urban forests, hospitals, schools, and even garbage-collection points, all identified and mapped by the BMC's business development department. HT was the first to report on Monday about various locations identified by the BMC for film shoots. The civic body is also working closely with the Mumbai police, fire department, and local ward offices to ensure smooth coordination across departments. Gagrani acknowledged that many of these locations are within densely populated neighbourhoods and assured the audience that the concerns of local residents will be respected. 'The BMC aims to find a balance between creative needs and community well-being,' he said. Dr Amit Saini, additional municipal commissioner, addressed the gathering, saying, 'The first issue we often face comes from nearby residents, who complain of noise and smoke pollution. That's why it is important to maintain a symbiotic relationship with the surrounding community, especially in Mumbai and the MMR.' He cited the example of a shoot at Gilder Lane School in Byculla, where there was a lot of old furniture and waste on the street. 'We began by cleaning the site. We identified that the main problem was caused by DG sets emitting fumes and smoke. Initially, we had a D-base connection, which proved to be insufficient, so we worked on upgrading it. Right now, our primary focus is on improving the location as a starting point,' said Saini. Looking beyond film and TV production, the BMC is also setting its sights on live entertainment. Two major venues for large-scale events will be announced soon. The civic body plans to offer comprehensive support for these events, from infrastructure to safety services. 'We are covering 360 degrees of entertainment – Bollywood, OTT, live television and events,' Gagrani said. He said the aim is to build an ecosystem that not only supports the creative industry but also positions Mumbai as a global cultural destination. Apart from Gagrani and Saini, other stakeholders at the event were represented by Prashant Sajnikar, joint managing director, Film City; Lohita Sujith, senior director, copyright and digital economy, Motion Picture Association; Shivraj Walchal, actor and director. The event was moderated by Chaitanya Chinchilkar, vice-president and business head, CTO, Whistling Woods International.

‘Saiyaara' Box Office collection day 13: Ahaan Panday-Aneet Padda's romantic drama directed by Mohit Suri mints Rs 7 crore on second Wednesday; inches closer to Rs 275 crore mark in India

Mohit Suri's romantic drama 'Saiyaara' is still pulling in crowds at the cinemas even after nearly three weeks. Starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda , the film may have seen a slight dip in numbers, but it's now just a step away from touching the Rs 275 crore mark at the Indian box office. Mints LOWEST on day 13 According to early estimates shared by Sacnilk, 'Saiyaara' earned approximately Rs 7 crore on its day 13, Wednesday, 30 July 2025, bringing its total domestic net collection to Rs 273.50 crore. While the film's pace has slowed slightly, especially when compared to its initial blockbuster opening, the numbers remain impressive for a romantic drama fronted by two debutants. The film's occupancy across Hindi shows stood at 14.54% on Day 13, with morning shows recording 10.33%, afternoons at 15.67%, evening shows at 15.03%, and night shows at a strong 17.11%. Drop on weekdays after a solid second weekend The second week of 'Saiyaara' saw some ups and downs. After a huge Rs 30 crore on its second Sunday (Day 10), the film dropped to Rs 9.25 crore on Monday. It then picked up slightly on Tuesday with Rs 10 crore, only to fall to Rs 7 crore on Wednesday. This was its lowest single-day collection since release. Day-wise breakdown of 'Saiyaara' Box office collection Week 1: Day 1 [Friday]: Rs 21.5 crore Day 2 [Saturday]: Rs 26 crore Day 3 [Sunday]: Rs 35.75 crore Day 4 [Monday]: Rs 24 crore Day 5 [Tuesday]: Rs 25 crore Day 6 [Wednesday]: Rs 21.5 crore Day 7 [Thursday]: Rs 19 crore Total Week 1: Rs 172.75 crore Week 2: Day 8 [Friday]: Rs 18 crore Day 9 [Saturday]: Rs 26.5 crore Day 10 [Sunday]: Rs 30 crore Day 11 [Monday]: Rs 9.25 crore Day 12 [Tuesday]: Rs 10 crore Day 13 [Wednesday]: Rs 7 crore Total so far: Rs 273.50 crore Big moment for 'Saiyaara' at the global level While the film is close to Rs 275 crore in India, it has already made a massive impact worldwide. In just 11 days, 'Saiyaara' crossed the Rs 400 crore mark globally — a huge feat for a romantic drama with debut leads. This big win puts it ahead of some of Bollywood's biggest love stories. It has now beaten Shahid Kapoor's 'Kabir Singh' (Rs 379 crore) and Aamir Khan's 'Sitaare Zameen Par' (Rs 264 crore) in total global earnings. The proud moment was shared by YRF on their official Instagram handle, with the caption, "#Saiyaara is touching hearts everywhere..." A poster shared in the post read, "Highest grossing love story in Indian cinema history Rs 404 crore (46.84 Million) Worldwide gross." New films may bring box office fight The coming Friday could shake things up at the cinemas. On 1 August, 'Son Of Sardar 2' and 'Dhadak 2' are set to release, and both films are expected to bring competition. If they receive good word of mouth, they could cut into 'Saiyaara''s audience, especially in urban centres. Still, with a strong lead so far and growing fan love, 'Saiyaara' might just hold its ground even in the face of new releases.
