Kingdom box office collection day 3: Vijay Deverakonda film holds steady on first Saturday, nears Liger's domestic haul

Hindustan Times3 days ago
Kingdom box office collection day 3: Telugu star Vijay Deverakonda is garnering praise for his performance in his recent release, Kingdom. The spy-action drama was released in theatres on July 31 after several delays. The film opened to a decent start, and despite seeing a drop on the second day, it held well on the first Saturday. Vijay Deverakonda and Bhagyashri Borse's still from Kingdom.
Kingdom's box office collection
According to Sacnilk, Vijay's film earned ₹18 crore on day one of its release. However, it witnessed a decline of 58.33% on day 2 and earned only ₹7.5 crore. On its third day, it earned ₹6.8 crore, taking the total collection of the film to ₹32.3 crore. The film is now inching closer to beating the domestic collection of Vijay's film Liger ( ₹41 crore), which marked his grand debut in Bollywood alongside Ananya Panday.
The film had an overall 41.54% Telugu occupancy on Saturday, with 31.25% in morning shows, 46.31% in afternoon shows, and 47.06% in evening shows. The film is competing with Pawan Kalyan's Hari Hara Veera Mallu at the box office.
About Kingdom
Kingdom centres around Suri (played by Vijay Deverakonda), a modest, loyal police officer who turns spy to take on a covert mission in Sri Lanka. The mission involves him locating and rescuing his estranged brother Siva (played by Satyadev), who is now the head of a smuggling syndicate. The film also stars Bhagyashri Borse as the female lead. The film ended on a cliffhanger to create the base for the sequel, which the film's producer, Nag Vamsi, announced at a post-release press meet.
While Vijay's performance has been appreciated by the audience, several viewers were disappointed by the second half of the screenplay. Helmed by Gowtam Tinnanuri, the film collected ₹39 crore worldwide at the box office on opening day, making it Vijay's personal best so far.

Hansika Motwani removes wedding pics, videos with husband Sohael Khaturiya from Insta amid divorce rumours

Actor Hansika Motwani and her husband Sohael Khaturiya are reportedly facing trouble in their marriage, nearly three years after their lavish wedding in December 2022. Speculation about a possible separation has intensified after fans noticed that Hansika has deleted several photos and videos featuring Sohael, including their wedding footage, from her Instagram account. Social media silence and recent online behavior of Hansika Motwane and Sohael Khaturiya raise questions about their relationship status following their lavish wedding. Hansika deletes wedding pictures from Instagram Hansika has reportedly also moved back in with her mother, signalling a shift from the domestic life she had embraced with Sohael post-marriage. This comes as a surprise to many who followed their high-profile relationship, which was documented in a six-episode reality series titled Hansika's Love Shaadi Drama on JioCinema (formerly JioHotstar). The show had given fans an intimate look into their love story—from Sohael's romantic proposal under the Eiffel Tower in Paris to their grand wedding celebrations. The show portrayed the couple's chemistry, especially since Sohael was known to have been previously married to Rinky Bajaj, a woman speculated to be close to Hansika. Their marriage was seen as a union within a tight-knit circle, with Hansika's brother also sharing a longstanding friendship with Sohael. Sohael inactive on social media However, recent developments suggest cracks in that picture-perfect narrative. Sohael, who has been inactive on social media since 2023, has now made his Instagram profile private, further fuelling rumours of marital discord. Meanwhile, Hansika has remained silent and refrained from commenting on the growing speculation. Neither Hansika nor Sohael has issued an official statement regarding the rumours, but their digital silence and recent changes in online behaviour have led fans to wonder about their relationship status. About Hansika and Sohael Hansika Motwani transitioned from being a child star to starring in a wide range of films across multiple languages— from her debut in the Telugu blockbuster Desamuduru (2007) to hits like Tamil's Oru Kal Oru Kannadi, Velayudham, and Telugu's comedies Denikaina Ready, 100, and Tenali Ramakrishna BA BL. Her recent releases include Maha (2022), 105 Minutes and Guardian (2024), and My Name Is Shruthi (2023). Sohael Khaturiya is an entrepreneur known for founding Avanté TexWorld, a textile-export business, and co-running event management ventures. He also manages show productions and business operations alongside Hansika.
