Pinkvilla Predicts: The opening day box office collections for Metro In Dino, Son Of Sardaar 2, War 2, Superman and other movies
Pinkvilla Predicts The Opening Day Collection Of Upcoming Movie Releases In India
Pinkvilla predicts the opening day collections for ten major releases:- Jurassic World: Rebirth, Metro... In Dino, Superman, Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan, Maalik, Nikita Roy, Saiyaara, Fantastic Four: First Steps and Son of Sardaar 2. We are also adding the August release, War 2, for the sheer size of film that it is.
July 4, 2025: Jurassic World: Rebirth, Metro In Dino
The month starts with a clash of titans. Jurassic World: Rebirth, starring Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey, brings high-octane dinosaur action. Directed by Gareth Edwards, its global appeal and holiday release should drive crowds. An opening of Rs 9.50 to Rs 10.50 crore can sure be expected.
Metro...In Dino, Anurag Basu 's anthology with Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, and many others, explores urban romance. Its nostalgic tie to Life in a Metro, and Pritam's music should earn it Rs 3.25 - 3.75 crore net. Had it not been delayed so much, and had it not released in such a busy release season, it could have opened to Rs 6 crore or more.
July 11, 2025: Superman, Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan, Maalik
A triple clash follows. Superman, directed by James Gunn with David Corenswet, rides on DC's hype. The predictions for the movie are still at a conservative Rs 7.50 - 8.50 crore net, since it is the most word-of-mouth dependent movie of the summer.
Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan, a romantic drama with Vikrant Massey and Shanaya Kapoor, should appeal to emotional audiences. It is pegged to collect Rs 1.50 - 2 crore net and then grow if word of mouth is favourable.
Maalik, a crime drama starring Rajkummar Rao and Manushi Chhillar, is expected to draw Rs 3.00 - 3.50 crore net, with its intense narrative.
July 18, 2025: Nikita Roy, Saiyaara, Tanvi The Great
Nikita Roy, a thriller starring Sonakshi Sinha and directed by Kush S. Sinha, releases on July 18. It is running low on buzz and it may barely net Rs 20 - 25 lakh on its opening day.
Saiyaara, a romantic drama with debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, backed by Mohit Suri's direction and hit music, is predicted to earn a reasonable Rs 3.25 - 3.75 crore net.
Anupam Kher's Tanvi The Great seems promising but the film lacks the star power, thrill and excitement to fill theatres. An opening day of Rs 20 - 25 lakh net is what is expected, as for now.
July 25, 2025: Fantastic Four: First Steps, Son of Sardaar 2
The final July week sees Fantastic Four: First Steps, Marvel's reboot with Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby, bringing the MCU excitement back. A decent Rs 7.00 - 8.00 crore net is expected from the biggie.
Son of Sardaar 2, starring Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur, offers action-comedy and Devgn's mass appeal. The pre-release units so far suggest an opening of around Rs 8.50 - 9.50 crore net. This would be seen as a low start for a sequel to a hit film.
August 14, 2025: War 2
War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan, Kiara Advani and NTR Jr, is a YRF spy universe juggernaut directed by Ayan Mukerji. With massive hype, it's set to rake in Rs 57.5-58.50 crore net on its opening day. It has the potential to break the highest single day collections record on 15th August.
The India Net Opening Day Prediction Of The Abovementioned Movies Is As Under
Date Movie Net Opening Day
July 4 Jurassic World: Rebirth Rs 9.50 - 10.50 crore
July 4 Metro... In Dino Rs 3.50 - 4 crore

July 11 Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan Rs 1.50 - 2.00 crore
July 11 Maalik Rs 3.00 - 3.50 crore
July 18 Nikita Roy Rs 20 - 25 lakh
July 18 Saiyaara Rs 3.25 - 3.75 crore

'Actors want diet food in the morning, drugs at night,' says former CBFC Chief, producer Pahlaj Nihalini as he slams high entourage costs
In recent times, the entourage costs of stars has become a huge topic of discussion within the industry. Most actors today, even those who are relatively new, come with their team of hairstylist, make-up artist and some reportedly even demand producers to pay for their fitness trainer. In a recent interview, former chief of CBFC (Censor Board Of Film Certification) and producer, opened up on entourage costs. He further slammed actors for being so demanding. He said in an interview with, Learning From The Legend podcast, 'Where one person was working now, 10 people are employed. Earlier, there used to be one vanity van, but now actors demand six vanity vans — one for exercising, one for kitchen, one for meetings. Sharam ani chahiye un actors ko ko che vanity vans mangate hai (Actors should feel ashamed for asking for six vanity vans). Earlier only makeup man used to go with actors, now they demand a separate hairdresser and a person just to hold their mirror. They give Rs 1.5 lakh bills for nothing. Assi Assi hazaar ka make-up chahiye. Earlier they used to bring home cooked food, but now they want diet food. They want drugs at night and diet food in the morning.' When further probed and asked if the drug culture still exists in the industry. 'Of course it exists. Kuch actors ke toh aankhon mein hi aapko dikhega drug hi drug hai.' In this chat, he also opened up on nepotism and said that people are here basis on their own merit. He added that a person will work only if they talent. Further giving example of Yash Chopra's son, Uday Chopra he said that despite being in the industry, he didn't work. He said further, "Politician ka beta politician hi banega na. Doctor ka beta doctor hi banega na." Pahlaj has produced movies like 'Shola Aur Shabnam', 'Aankhein', 'Talaash' and more.

'Akshay Kumar forced to cast Kareena Kapoor in Talaash,' says Pahlaj Nihalini; revealing it was the first time in his career that an actor interfered in casting
Former CBFC ( Central Board Of Film Certification ) Chief and film-maker Pahlaj Nihalini is always known for being quite vocal about his opinions. Nihalini in the recent interview has spoken harshly about the growing costs of entourage of actors. He revealed the kind of demands which actors have. He also added that earlier heroes never interfered with the casting of heroines but it started with Akshay Kumar who referred Kareena Kapoor for his film 'Talaash'. Pahlaj said that this was the first time in his career that he saw such a demand. 'Earlier, producers and directors used to cast and heroes wouldn't interfere in casting. The first actor to interfere in casting with me was Akshay Kumar in Talash in 2002. He told me that 'we can start the movie tomorrow, and you can give me any amount that you want, but the heroine of this film will be Kareena Kapoor.' It was one of the most costly film of that time, it was made in Rs 22 crore. This was the first time in my career that an actor had demanded a certain cast,' he said. He said that now a days, the actor only decides everything about the film - right from the director to actresses or technicians. 'Aajkal toh yeh pura racket hai. Aaj kal sab kuch actor ka hi hai.' When asked about the reason why Akshay wanted Kareena for the film, he said, 'Sometimes, as the actors grow old they want to star against younger actresses so that their own age looks less.' In this interview, he also spoke about Govinda and was asked if he was arrogant. Reacting to it, he said, "Govinda was always insecure in everything. His father was a huge hero of Mehboob Khan. He was a producer also, had so many losses. Usne itna dard saaha uske baad, bahut saari cheezein unke haath se nikal gayi, aur struggle karna pada. All those things were built inside him while doing something.'
