F1 box office collection Day 5: Brad Pitt's racing drama gains momentum on Tuesday; set to cross Rs 30 crore mark
's high-octane racing film F1 is shifting gears once again. After a strong debut and a brief slowdown, the sports drama picked up pace on its fifth day at the Indian box office, earning an estimated Rs 4.18 crore on Tuesday, according to early estimates by Sacnilk.com.
This brings the film's five-day total to approximately Rs 28.93 crore.
Directed by
Joseph Kosinski
(Top Gun: Maverick), F1 hit Indian theatres with a roaring start, collecting a remarkable Rs 21.4 crore over its opening weekend — a notable feat considering it shared screen space with competing releases like the Hindi horror-thriller Maa and the mythological epic Kannappa from the South.
While the film experienced a sharp dip on Monday, earning just Rs 3.35 crore, Tuesday's uptick suggests strong weekday retention and renewed audience interest — likely driven by word-of-mouth and repeat viewership among motorsport enthusiasts.
Starring Brad Pitt alongside
Damson Idris
,
Kerry Condon
,
Javier Bardem
, and a cameo appearance by F1 legend Lewis Hamilton (who also serves as co-producer), F1 has been lauded for its realistic portrayal of the racing world, intense track sequences, and sleek production values.
With two more days remaining before the film completes its first full week in theatres, F1 is now on track to cross the Rs 30 crore milestone. If it maintains this momentum, it could race toward the coveted Rs 50 crore mark in the weeks to come.

R Madhavan on Rocketry: The Nambi Effect completing three years of its release: We wanted to change Google's algorithm..
Three years ago, Rocketry: The Nambi Effect blasted its way into Indian cinema, with reviews praising the way the biopic was made. It also garnered attention for the portrayal of aerospace scientist Nambi Narayanan by actor R Madhavan. R Madhavan As the film completed a year of it's release yesterday on July 1, Madhavan was ecstatic and reminisced the making, 'When I started writing the story of Rocketry in 2016 and 17, whenever I Googled Nambi Narayanan, it used to spit out the ISRO spy case or the Maldivian woman affair or something negative about Nambi sir. And while writing the script, I told Vijay, my producer, that, 'you know what, we should make a movie that will change the algorithm on Google to spit out more the right facts about Nambi Sir'. Basically I wanted to change the algorithm about how sir was being perceived by Google- and we have managed to do that. It's been three years since then, can't believe how the time flew.' It was therefore a deeply personal project for Madhavan, who also turned director with Rocketry. He produced the film too. His decision to take creative and narrative ownership has redefined his legacy. It brought the overdue recognition to Nambi Narayanan's immense contributions to India's space program. Released in multiple languages and celebrated globally, the film struck a chord for its sincerity, emotional depth, and purpose. Its impact was acknowledged when Rocketry was honoured with the National Award for Best Feature Film at the 69th National Film Awards. Currently, Madhavan is gearing up for the release of his film Aap Jaia Koi. He also played a pivotal role in the recent Kesari Chapter 2, which fetched him appreciation.

It's time people knew I can sing more than party songs: Aastha Gill
Singer Aastha Gill is one of the artistes who represent India's swelling presence on the global stage, whether it is a Cannes Film Festival or being live on stage. Aastha, who made her Cannes red carpet debut this year, views the invitation to Indian singers (Diljit Dosanjh also debuted at Cannes this year), apart from actors at global events, to the boom of Indian music. 'What's happening right now is just crazy — in the best way possible,' says Aastha, about the rise of Indian musicians. 'There was a time when just a couple of Indian names popped up internationally every year. Now, we have a whole spectrum of actors, singers, influencers , and even independent artists representing India on the global stage.' But beyond the glam and fame of red carpets and flashbulbs at live events, Aastha is excited about the cultural shift towards Indian music and the pull Indian singers have started exerting on international collaborators . 'All the big global artists are reaching out to Indian singers for collabs whether it's Ed Sheeran, Sia, or Akon, Nick Jonas. They want to feature with Indian musicians. They're not asking us to tone down the desi flavour. They want the Indian melodies, the rhythmic textures, and the soul of Indian's music culture.' She says her tracks like Naagin and Papi too got her global attention, with international DJs and artists reaching out to her in DMs. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Descubra aparelhos auditivos de alta qualidade sem gastar um único cêntimo Aparelhos Auditivo PT Undo 'Streaming platforms have made this access so fluid.

Ask her if it will be a treat for party animals, and she laughs, 'A lot of people think I'm just about party music. But this EP will prove I am way more and beyond party tracks too. It's deeply personal, not about the crowd but about the craft and for the audience who appreciate that kind of music. Every song has its own audience, I think. I'm enjoying doing the non-film music.
