Mahavatar Narasimha Becomes Biggest Animated film ever in India, Overtakes Spider Man

Mahavatar Narasimha has emerged as the highest-grossing animation film of all time in India. The film grossed Rs. 8 crore approx on its second Friday, taking its total gross to Rs. 56.50 crore. This figure doesn't include 3D charges, as is the reporting norm in India, including which the total gross stands at Rs. 63 crore approx. Mahavatar Narasimha surpassed the Hollywood film Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse for the record, while the previous biggest homegrown animation was Tamil film Kochadaiiyaan featuring Superstar Rajnikanth. The record came in just eight days of release, and with the sort of momentum the film has caught, it will be setting the bar quite high this time. Animation films are extremely popular across the world, boasting some of the biggest grossers ever. Just this year, Chinese animation Ne Zha 2 obliterated box office records in the country, grossing over USD 2 billion. Last year, Inside Out 2 did tremendous business across the world. In several countries, animation is the most popular genre for movie-going. However, in India, it has very few takers. The genre is often looked down on as 'kids cinema', and in India, kids don't drive the box office. The religious animation does have some appeal, but except for Punjabi film Chaar Sahibzade, nothing has found the success pan-India or in Hindi, that is, until now. Mahavatar Narasimha is the first in the announced cinematic universe of seven films. The hope is that this film and franchise will break the stigma and unlock the massive potential of animation that has already delivered blockbusters worldwide. The Highest Grossing Animated Films in India are as follows: Rank Title Year Gross 1 Mahavatar Narasimha 2025 Rs. 56.50 cr. 2 Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse 2023 Rs. 55.50 cr. 3 Incredibles 2 2018 Rs. 54.50 cr. 4 Frozen 2 2019 Rs. 54.00 cr. 5 Kochadaiiyan 2014 Rs. 52.00 cr. 6 Kung Fu Panda 4 2024 Rs. 43.00 cr. 7 Inside Out 2 2024 Rs. 38.00 cr. 8 Moana 2 2024 Rs. 31.50 cr. 9 Kung Fu Panda 3 2016 Rs. 30.75 cr. 10 Kung Fu Panda 2 2011 Rs. 28.50 cr.

Son of Sardaar 2 Box Office Collection Day 1: Ajay Devgn's comedy struggles with Rs 6.75 crore debut amid poor reviews

Ajay Devgn's latest comedy outing, Son of Sardaar 2, co-starring Mrunal Thakur, Ravi Kishan, and Deepak Dobriyal in lead roles, finally hit theatres on Friday. The film opened to a decent response at the box office, collecting around Rs 6.75 crore (India net) on its first day, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. The film recorded an overall Day 1 occupancy of 22.56%, starting with just 10.24% during morning shows, improving to 17.88% in the afternoon, 21.84% in the evening, and peaking at 40.27% during night shows, nearly double its early-day performance. In terms of regional performance, Tier-2 cities like Lucknow and Jaipur led the occupancy charts with 39% and 37%, respectively. Meanwhile, traditional strongholds for Hindi films like Delhi-NCR and Mumbai lagged slightly behind, recording 30.50% and 20.25% occupancy respectively. What's striking, however, is how Son of Sardaar 2 opened significantly lower than Ajay's last release, another sequel, Raid 2, which had a solid opening day collection of Rs 19.25 crore. In comparison, the new film's first-day figure is also less than half of Shaitaan, Ajay's recent horror blockbuster, which had opened at Rs 14.75 crore. That said, it still fared better than Maa, starring Kajol, which managed Rs 4.5 crore on its opening day last month.

Both films, however, are struggling to draw audiences in the face of stiff competition from Mohit Suri's romantic musical Saiyaara, which is currently in its second week and has already amassed a staggering Rs 285.75 crore. Interestingly, Son of Sardaar 2 was initially scheduled for release last week. However, in light of Saiyaara's unexpected box office dominance, Ajay chose to delay the release by a week to avoid any sort of indirect clash, a strategic move in contrast to 2012, when the original Son of Sardaar released opposite Yash Raj Films' Jab Tak Hai Jaan. Back then, despite immense pressure, Ajay went ahead with the clash, which ended up affecting both films' long-term box office performance. Whether the sequel can sustain and grow in the coming days remains to be seen.

Dhadak 2 Box Office Collection Day 1: Siddhant Chaturvedi-Triptii Dimri starrer is no Saiyaara, opens with Rs 3.35 crore

Dhadak 2 Box Office Collection Day 1: It sure is an exciting time for fans of Hindi cinema, with Dhadak 2, Son of Sardaar 2, and Saiyaara all competing with each other at the box office. However, Dhadak 2 has started its theatrical run with modest numbers. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri movie earned Rs 3.35 crore on its opening day. Interestingly, it fell short of the number posted by its predecessor, Dhadak, which came out seven years ago. Starring Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor, Dhadak earned Rs 8.7 crore net on its first day in theatres and closed its theatrical run after earning Rs 74.19 crore nett in India, and Rs 113 crore worldwide. The source material for the first film was the Marathi movie Sairat, which earned Rs 3.7 crore net on its first day. While the opening day numbers aren't all that disappointing, the fact of the matter is that Dhadak 2 is competing with far too many other films in the marketplace. The Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda-starrer Saiyaara is still going strong and is again expected to have a big weekend. Son of Sardaar 2, starring Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur, is now also in the race, with Kingdom 2 and Fantastic Four chipping away at whatever crowd is left. ALSO READ: National Film Awards: '12th Fail' is best film, Massey-Shah Rukh and Rani win best actor awards Genre-wise, Saiyaara is Dhadak 2's direct competitor, and the Mohit Suri directorial has already crossed Rs 440 crore worldwide. The occupancy rates of Dhadak 2 averaged out at 22.85%, with the morning and afternoon shows bringing in rates of 15.02% and 22.29%. The evening and night shows improved on the numbers a bit and achieved 22.03% and 32.07%, respectively. The NCR region had 432 shows available and averaged an occupancy rate of 32.5%, while Mumbai had 339 shows and averaged an occupancy rate of 22.75%. Saiyaara still looks to be the biggest challenge for all the films currently on the docket. The makers of Son of Sardaar 2 even cut the price of their tickets by 50% to provide the viewers with some extra incentive. Directed by Shazia Iqbal, Dhadak 2 will be hoping to have a good weekend and rake in some formidable numbers before it starts bleeding shows. The cast of the film includes Siddhant, Triptii, Saurabh Sachdeva, Vipin Sharma, and Manjiri Pupala.
