Ashwin Kumar
's 'Mahavatar Narsimha' is on the verge of entering the Rs 100 crore club, and it's doing so with a steady stride.
According to the Sacnilk website, the mythological epic, which opened modestly at Rs 1.75 crore on its first day, has seen an impressive growth curve over the last 12 days.
With a total collection now touching Rs 99.51 crore across all languages, the film is just shy of a major box office milestone.
Powered by strong word-of-mouth and backed by a solid weekend push, the film's highest single-day figure so far came on its second Sunday, where it raked in a massive Rs 23.4 crore. Hindi versions have clearly led the charge, contributing the lion's share of the collections so far.
Weekend boosts, weekdays hold
While the first weekend helped the film gain attention, its second weekend performance paved the way for its path to being a blockbuster.
Day 9 (second Saturday) saw the collection jump to Rs 15.4 crore, doubling its Friday numbers. This was followed by a strong Sunday at Rs 23.4 crore.
Even Monday of the second week held decently at Rs 8.25 crore. However, Day 12 showed a sharp drop, with just Rs 1 lakh reported so far.

Yesterday, Saiyaara recorded its lowest day since release as it earned around Rs 2.75 crore and now stands with a total collection of Rs 308.25 crore. read more Saiyaara, featuring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, shattered several records at the box office. The romantic musical drama became the first movie to cross the Rs 300 crore mark, which is headlined by newcomers. While the first two weeks, Saiyaara trended phenomenally well at the ticket windows, it was impacted by \_Mahavatar Narsimha\_, which gained momentum from strength to strength on every passing day at the box office. Yesterday, Saiyaara recorded its lowest day since release as it earned around Rs 2.75 crore and now stands with a total collection of Rs 308.25 crore. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD But now as per multiple reports, it is being said that not Ahaan and Aneet, but Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani were the makers' first choices but things didn't materialize. It's said the Shershaah actor's look test didn't really go as smooth as expected and the director Mohit Suri put his point forward. With the global collections of Rs 486 crore, Saiyaara has crossed Hrithik Roshan-Tiger Shroff's War (Rs 475.62), the film is expected to surpass its domestic collections (Rs 318.01 crore) by the end of its 4th weekend. Not only fans and audiences, Saiyaara garnered praise from celebs like Alia Bhatt, Ranveer Singh, Aamir Khan, Mahesh Babu, Arjun Kapoor, Ameesha Patel, Siddharth Anand, Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Karan Johar, Anurag Basu and Anil Kapoor, among others, for its storyline, direction and performances. Before the release of the movie, director Mohit Suri spoke about Saiyaara's comparison with Aashiqui 2 in an interview with Firstpost. He said, 'When I made Zeher, they said it looked like Murder. When I made Ek Villain, they said it looked like Murder 2. When I made Malang, they said it looked like Ek Villain. When I made Aashiqui 2, they said it looked like Woh Lame and Rockstar. So I think when I go ahead and make my next film, they'll say it looks like Saiyaara. I think when they're comparing it to my own work rather than somebody else's, it's good.'

Hakla Shah Rukh Khan meme refuses to die despite takedown attempts; goes viral again
Social media trends and viral memes based on celebs in not a new concept, and if often takes the internet by storm. One such trend currently sweeping across social media is the 'Hakla Shah Rukh Khan ' meme, a viral sensation that refuses to fade. Even as reports suggest attempts were made by Shah Rukh Khan's team to remove the content, it continues to surface on various social media platforms. Where did it begin The meme includes an exaggerated, cartoonish image of SRK's face morphed onto a comedian donning a bizarre hairstyle similar to his iconic stutter in the film Darr. Users mock his repeated "K–K–K–Kiran" dialogue delivery, using the Hindi term "hakla", meaning 'stammerer,' to spotlight it. This odd visual and verbal combo first surfaced in a parody video nearly a decade ago but only recently surged thanks to meme page resharing, GIFs, and remixed clips. Why is it still trending According to social media creator Glokus, the meme's less popularity changed into internet gold when users began spreading it again recently. Despite platform removal measures, 'Hakla Shah Rukh Khan' once again went viral as parody meme pages revived it with creative edits and comical audio. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now SRK tried to take this down According to various reports available online, SRK's team attempted to remove the offending GIF across platforms. Instagram reportedly purged the original image in mid-2024, and Meta cited policy violations tied to bullying and harassment. But rather than disappearing, the meme found new ways to survive, some fans used ASCII art recreations, misspelled hashtags like 'H@kl@,' and abstract dot-art versions to bypass moderation. This meme gave rise to various other viral memes The meme's popularity spurred spin-offs like Salman Khan became 'Suja Salman,' Akshay Kumar became 'Banana Akki,' and even political figures weren't spared. Instagram reels featuring figures like PM Narendra Modi as 'Sai NaMo' went viral, with meme makers celebrating 'Hakla Never Dies' as their rallying cry. The persistent 'Hakla Shah Rukh Khan' meme is an example that once something goes online, it's nearly impossible to erase. And in today's social media landscape, that persistence speaks louder than any takedown notice.
