Maa Box Office Collection Day 10: Kajol's Horror Thriller Crosses Rs 30-Crore Mark
Kajol's first horror film, Maa, released on June 27, 2025, has been performing well at the box office. By the second Sunday, it crossed the Rs 30 crore mark. Kajol's first horror movie Maa is doing really well in theatres! The film, which released on June 27, has been getting a great response from the audience. Even in its second week, it's pulling in strong numbers. On Sunday (July 6), Maa crossed the Rs 30 crore mark at the box office. Maa seems to be picking up pace again at the box office. As per early numbers from Sacnilk, the film earned Rs 2.35 crore on its 10th day (Sunday), showing a clear jump from Saturday's collection of Rs 1.75 crore. Thanks to the weekend boost, the Kajol-starrer has now crossed the Rs 30 crore milestone, bringing its total earnings to Rs 31.60 crore. The film has managed to stay strong through its second week. Directed by Vishal Furia, Maa has held its own despite facing tough competition from biggies like Sitaare Zameen Par and Kannappa. Maa had opened with Rs 4.65 crore on its first day. In Maa, a mythological horror thriller, Kajol takes on the powerful role of Ambika, a fearless mother who will stop at nothing to protect her daughter from dark, supernatural forces. The film blends myth and mystery, marking Kajol's first foray into the horror genre. Alongside her, the cast includes Indraneil Sengupta, Jitin Gulati, and Kherin Sharma. Directed by Vishal Furia, Maa is backed by producers Ajay Devgn and Jyoti Subbarayan. A part of the review of Maa by News18 read, 'The concept and story have substance, but the film lacked largely because of its style of storytelling. Besides, the film also has a lot of stereotypes that could have been done without. Besides the exaggeration that the palace had a almost 30-feet tall Kali maa's stone carved statue, the way people from Chandrapur talk in the film, everything seems to be a cliche that all the Bengalis would be running away from. It only gets disappointing to see Ronit Roy, who plays a vital part in the film, deliver all his Hindi dialogues with such a heavy Bengali accent. A lot would argue that it is not how people from Bengal speak when they talk in Hindi." First Published:

'Show Some Sensitivity': Congress Attacks Kangana Over 'No Cabinet' Remark In Flood-Hit Mandi
The Congress party slammed BJP MP Kangana Ranaut and said her comments on the flood situation in Himachal Pradesh were "insensitive". The Congress party on Sunday slammed BJP Lok Sabha MP from Mandi, Kangana Ranaut, after she paid a visit to her rain-ravaged constituency and said that she does not have any official Cabinet to provide disaster relief. Terming the remarks by the actor-politician 'insensitive", the Congress opined that Kangana should show sensitivity to the situation in Himachal Pradesh and those affected by floods and landslides. In an X post, the Congress shared a byte by Kangana and wrote, 'In Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, a cloudburst has caused massive destruction. People are distressed, their everything has been ruined." 'Mandi's MP Kangana arrived there after several days and, laughing, said- 'What can I do, I don't have a cabinet position'. Please show some sensitivity, Kangana ji," a rough translation of the party's post in Hindi suggested. हिमाचल प्रदेश के मंडी में बादल फटने से भारी तबाही हुई है. लोग परेशान हैं, उनका सब कुछ उजड़ गया है.मंडी की सांसद कंगना कई दिन बाद वहां पहुंचीं और हंसते हुए कहा- 'मैं क्या कर सकती हूं, मेरे पास कैबिनेट तो है नहीं' कुछ तो संवेदना दिखाइए कंगना जी — Congress (@INCIndia) July 6, 2025 WHAT KANGANA RANAUT SAID Addressing reporters over the situation in Mandi, Kangana said, 'I don't have any official cabinet when it comes to disaster relief or the disaster itself." 'I have my two brothers who are always with me. That's my cabinet. So, it's just these two," she added. 'The relief and restoration works have to be done by the state government, and as an MP, I can only apprise the Prime Minister and the Home Minister about the situation and seek liberal assistance," Ranaut told reporters. 'We are the link between the state and the central government, instrumental in getting projects from the centre to the state and raising issues and grievances of our constituencies with the centre," she said. 'How the state government is functioning, I can say that Congress will not come to power in the state for the next 20 years," she added. Earlier, in an X post, Kangana wrote, 'It is heartbreaking to see massive flood devastation in Himachal almost every year now. I tried reaching the flood-affected areas in Seraj and other areas in Mandi, but was advised by the respected Leader of Opposition Jai Ram Thakur to wait until the connectivity to the affected areas is restored." Kangana took stock of the situation in Mandi on Sunday and asserted that the way relief work is being undertaken, the Congress will not return to power in the state in even 20 years. She also said that as an MP, she could only apprise the prime minister of the situation. 'I am deeply pained to see the plight of the people. They have lost family members, houses have been washed away, several people are still missing, but we can only console the families who have lost their kin, and now it is time to provide relief." RAIN WREAKS HAVOC IN HIMACHAL Fourteen people have died, and a search is on for 31 missing, as cloudbursts, flash floods, and landslides caused massive destruction. More than 150 houses, 106 cattle sheds, 31 vehicles, 14 bridges, and several roads suffered damage in the disaster. A total of 164 cattle have perished. About 200 roads have been rendered out of bounds for traffic, while 236 transformers and 278 supply schemes have been disrupted in Mandi district as of Sunday morning, according to the state emergency operation centre.

Jurassic World Rebirth box office collection day 3: Scarlett Johansson's film earns more than double of Metro… In Dino, collects $318M globally
Jurassic World Rebirth earned Rs 15.75 crore on Sunday, its third day at the Indian box office. In comparison, its earnings were more than double of those of the only Bollywood release this week — Anurag Basu's romantic anthology Metro… In Dino, which made Rs 7.25 crore at the domestic box office on its third day. As per Sacnilk, Jurassic World Rebirth has dominated the Indian box office this weekend with the same margin throughout. On its opening day on Friday, July 4, the Scarlett Johnsson-starrer earned Rs 9 crore, again more than the double of how much Metro… In Dino made on the same day, Rs 3.5 crore. This continued on Saturday, July 5, as well. While Metro… In Dino earned Rs 6 crore, Jurassic World Rebirth made more than its double at Rs 13.5 crore. The India earnings are across all four versions — the native English version reserves the lion's share, followed by the dubbed Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu versions respectively. Jurassic World Rebirth became the first Hollywood film to have a grand premiere for its Hindi dubbed version last Thursday at the iconic Raj Mandir cinema in Jaipur. Interestingly, the first instalment of this popular franchise — Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park (1993) — was one of the first Hollywood films to be dubbed in Hindi. Jurassic World Rebirth vs F1 box office The current Indian box office collection of Jurassic World Rebirth stands at Rs 38.25 crore, again more than the double of that of Metro… In Dino, which earned Rs 16.75 crore over the opening weekend. The Indian opening weekend collection of Jurassic World Rebirth is also higher than that of Joseph Kosinski's action thriller F1, starring Brad Pitt, which made Rs 21.40 crore last month. Jurassic World Rebirth worldwide box office Jurassic World Rebirth also ruled the Fourth of July holiday box office with a global, five-day launch of $318.3 million. The Universal Pictures release opened on Wednesday and earned $147.3 million in its first five days in 4,308 North American theatres. An estimated $91.5 million of that comes from the traditional 'three-day' weekend, which includes the Friday holiday, Saturday, and projected Sunday ticket sales. Internationally, it opened in 82 markets, including China, adding $171 million to the opening total. According to the studio, $41.5 million of that came from China alone, where it played on 65,000 screens, 760 of which were IMAX. It's the country's biggest MPA (Motion Picture Association) opening of the year. Also Read — Jurassic World Rebirth: 7 callbacks to the 1993 Jurassic Park you might've missed Jurassic World Rebirth was missing from IMAX screens domestically (due to a commitment to continue showing F1), but it thrived on the premium large format screens where it played. One of those options was Dolby Cinema, where it made nearly $8 million from only 167 screens in five days.
