Scene Crosses ₹100 Cr Worldwide In Just 3 Days!
#Suriya's #Scene crosses the ₹100 Cr worldwide gross on Day 3, with its opening weekend heading towards the ₹120 Cr plus mark.
After collecting ₹79.65 Cr worldwide in its first two days, Sunday's live domestic gross has pushed the film past the century mark, with overseas collections still coming in.
Day-wise India Gross
Friday: ₹22.25 Cr
Saturday: ₹23.65 Cr
Sunday: ₹21.75 Cr (Live)
2-Day Worldwide Gross
India: ₹45.90 Cr
Overseas: ₹33.75 Cr
Worldwide: ₹79.65 Cr
Overseas has been another major strength, contributing around 42% of the two-day worldwide gross. The film has also crossed the $1 million mark in North America within its first two days.
Kerala continues to be a key market, with ₹10.50 Cr gross in the first two days with strong response.
Crossing ₹100 Cr worldwide within three days is a good result for @Suriya_offl and #JithuMadhavan. With the opening weekend potentially heading towards ₹120 Cr+, the next challenge will be sustaining this momentum through the weekdays.
Day 3 figures are live estimates. Final domestic and overseas numbers are awaited.

🥉 #VishwanathAndSons – ₹8.46 Cr
4️⃣ #Karuppu – ₹7.92 Cr
5️⃣ #EtharkkumThunindhavan – ₹4.35 Cr
With ₹4.14 Cr already booked, Scene is just ₹21 lakh away from overtaking Etharkkum Thunindhavan to enter the top five. Its next target is Karuppu's ₹7.92 Cr benchmark.
Kerala is also emerging as a major contributor, with advance sales reportedly crossing ₹1.50 Cr across more than 1,400 shows. The combination of #JithuMadhavan, #Nazriya, #Naslen and Suriya is adding considerable interest in the Malayalam market.
Interestingly, bookings gained momentum after a relatively slow start, with wider theatre availability accelerating sales over the past two days. With two days left, Scene has room to climb further in Suriya's advance-booking rankings.

Baahubali 2 Dethroned! Jailer 2 Becomes Kerala’s Biggest Non-Malayalam Grosser
Superstar #Rajinikanth’s #Jailer2 has grossed ₹72.85 Cr in Kerala by Day 13, surpassing #Baahubali2’s lifetime gross of ₹72.25 Cr to become the highest-grossing non-Malayalam film in Kerala history!
KERALA BOX OFFICE — TOP NON-MALAYALAM GROSSERS
1️⃣ #Jailer2 — ₹72.85 Cr*
2️⃣ #Baahubali2 — ₹72.25 Cr
3️⃣ #KGFChapter2 — ₹64.98 Cr
4️⃣ #Leo — ₹59.64 Cr
5️⃣ #KantaraChapter1 — ₹55.90 Cr
For nine years, #Baahubali2 stood as the benchmark, surviving the runs of pan-India blockbusters like #KGFChapter2 and #Leo. Now, @rajinikanth has finally pushed past that landmark in just 13 days.
The interesting factor is the franchise advantage. The original #Jailer established strong appeal in Kerala, while the return of #Mohanlal as Mathew gave the sequel an additional connection with local audiences.
Combined with Rajinikanth’s star power, that cross-industry appeal has translated into a historic theatrical run.
A nine-year record falls to Thalaivar. Can any upcoming non-Malayalam release challenge this new benchmark?

Stree 3 Targets 2028 Release, Could Arrive On Independence Day Or Christmas
#Stree3 is now being planned for a 2028 theatrical release, with Independence Day and Christmas under consideration as potential release windows.
Producer Dinesh Vijan has revealed that the film is expected to go on floors towards the end of 2027, after director Amar Kaushik completes #Mahavatar with #VickyKaushal.
#Mahavatar is scheduled to begin filming around late January 2027, with the shoot expected to run until around June.
The #Stree3 script has reportedly been completed, with the makers promising major surprises while retaining the elements that audiences loved in the previous films.
Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor, Pankaj Tripathi, Aparshakti Khurana and Abhishek Banerjee are expected to return, with #AkshayKumar also expected to have a key role.
Stree 2 had emerged as a major theatrical success, so the 2028 release will carry high expectations.
The wait is longer than previously expected, but if Maddock sticks to this timeline, Stree 3 will have a clear runway to become one of the major Hindi theatrical releases of 2028.

Varanasi Nears The Finish Line, Post-Production To Wrap By January 2027
#SSRajamouli’s #Varanasi is entering the final stretch of production with just 4-5 days of shooting left.
Post-production is already underway alongside the shoot and is expected to be completed by January 2027, keeping the film firmly on track for its April 7, 2027 theatrical release.
The film has been mounted on a massive scale, with #MaheshBabu as Rudhra, alongside #PriyankaChopraJonas and #PrithvirajSukumaran. The Africa schedule has already given a glimpse of the visual scale Rajamouli is aiming for.
With the shoot almost complete, the focus will now gradually shift towards the film’s promotions, trailer, music and the eventual opening-day expectations.
Endgame Encore Roars At ₹22.45 Cr Weekend, Becomes No. 2 Hollywood Grosser In India
#AvengersEndgameEncore has delivered a HUGE ₹22.45 Cr net opening weekend in India, with the re-release showing remarkable demand despite being a seven-year-old film.
Day 1: ₹7.25 Cr
Day 2: ₹7.65 Cr
Day 3: ₹7.55 Cr
Weekend Total: ₹22.45 Cr net | ₹26.50 Cr gross
With the Encore weekend added, #AvengersEndgame has reached ₹395.67 Cr net in India, surpassing Avatar: The Way Of Water (₹390.60 Cr) to become #Hollywood's 2nd highest-grossing film in India.
It is also just ₹4.33 Cr away from ₹400 Cr, which should come very soon.
Top Hollywood Grossers In India
1️⃣ #SpiderManBrandNewDay — ₹503.28 Cr
2️⃣ #AvengersEndgame — ₹395.67 Cr
3️⃣ #AvatarTheWayOfWater — ₹390.60 Cr
4️⃣ #AvengersInfinityWar — ₹227.43 Cr
5️⃣ #SpiderManNoWayHome — ₹212 Cr
Seven years after its original run, Avengers Endgame is still pulling blockbuster-level numbers in cinemas. That tells you everything about the theatrical value of a genuine event film.
And with #AvengersDoomsday arriving later this year, this Encore run is an early reminder of the insane theatrical pull Marvel still commands. If Endgame can open this big seven years later, Doomsday is going to be a whole different level of event.

Prabhas’ Kalki 2 Set For October Shoot, Targets 2028 Theatrical Release
#Kalki2 regular shooting is set to begin in mid-October 2026, with director #NagAshwin targeting to wrap the principal shoot by mid-2027.
Prabhas, #AmitabhBachchan and #KamalHaasan are expected to return, with portions featuring Amitabh and Kamal already shot earlier.
The big update: Nag Ashwin has indicated that 2028 is the target release window for the sequel.
With the scale and VFX work involved, the timeline makes sense and shooting through mid-2027 followed by an extensive post-production phase before the theatrical release.
The wait for the next chapter of the #Kalki2898AD universe is going to be a long one.
The Paradise Day 1: Nani Scores A Career-Best Opening With ₹76.90 Cr Worldwide 🔥
#TheParadise has opened to a SUPERB ₹76.90 Cr gross worldwide on Day 1, giving #Nani the biggest opening of his career by a significant margin.
The film collected ₹46.25 Cr nett in India, with the Telugu version doing the bulk of the business while the Hindi and Tamil versions also delivered @NameisNani's best-ever Day 1 numbers in their respective markets.
Day 1 Worldwide: ₹76.90 Cr
India Gross: ₹54.90 Cr
India Nett: ₹46.25 Cr
Overseas: ₹22.00 Cr
India Language-Wise
Telugu: ₹31.30 Cr nett
Hindi: ₹2.25 Cr nett
Tamil: ₹1.10 Cr nett
The ₹46.25 Cr India nett opening puts The Paradise comfortably ahead of Nani’s previous Day 1 benchmarks, with #HIT3 and #Dasara now behind it.
The film now needs to show strong hold from Day 2, especially after the mixed to negative audience response, to turn this huge opening into a major theatrical run.

The Paradise Review – A Disappointing & Overstretched Action Drama
Rating: ⭐✨(1.5/5)
#TheParadise has an interesting 1980s setting and a strong lead performance from #Nani, but unfortunately, the film struggles badly with its writing.
The revenge-driven story feels dated and predictable, while the excessive violence becomes overwhelming after a point. The film seems more interested in brutality than in building a strong emotional connection with its characters.
The first half has some engaging moments, with good world-building and a few impactful sequences. But the second half becomes repetitive and tedious, offering little freshness despite the nearly 3 hour runtime.
@NameisNani puts in a committed performance, while #MohanBabu and #SonaliKulkarni are effective in their roles. However, the character writing is shallow, and #KayaduLohar's Subbu is particularly underwritten, leaving very little impact despite the potential of the character.
Technically, the production design and 1980s atmosphere are good. The songs have theatrical energy, while the background score is inconsistent.
Overall, it has the scale and visual world of a big action drama, but the dated screenplay, excessive violence and weak character writing make it a tiring experience.
Nani's effort is evident, but the film doesn't give him a strong enough story to work with.
A loud, violent and disappointing watch. 👎
Sun Pictures is reportedly considering an outright sale of the Tamil Nadu theatrical rights for around ₹125 Cr for #Jailer2, instead of the usual distribution arrangement with Red Giant Movies.
If the deal materialises, it would put a substantial commercial target on the film from the outset. The buyer would take the full theatrical risk, while Sun Pictures secures the ₹125 Cr upfront.
From a box-office perspective, the number is aggressive but understandable considering #Jailer’s blockbuster run and the #Rajinikanth–#Nelson combination returning for the sequel. The franchise already has strong audience recall, while @rajinikanth's theatrical pull in Tamil Nadu remains one of the biggest factors working in the film’s favour.
The film would need a very strong theatrical run in Tamil Nadu for the buyer to generate healthy returns after distributor share and other costs.
₹50 CR+ OPENING ALREADY IN THE BAG! The Paradise Sets A New Nani Opening Record 🔥
#TheParadise has crossed the ₹50 Cr+ mark in opening-day pre-sales, giving #Nani his first-ever ₹50 Cr+ opening before the first regular show even begins.
The film has already surpassed @NameisNani's previous worldwide Day 1 benchmarks:
Top 3 Highest Openers of Nani:
🥇 #TheParadise — ₹50 Cr+*
🥈 #HIT3 — ₹37.80 Cr
🥉 #Dasara — ₹36.25 Cr
The advance response has been particularly strong across Telugu markets and overseas.
Paid premieres are also off to a strong start, with ₹12.27 Cr India gross already recorded from 1,409 shows as of 9 PM.
The big question now: How high can The Paradise go on its final worldwide Day 1?

Daayra Crashes Despite BOGO Offer, Vibe Also Struggles On Monday
#Daayra has suffered a major drop on Monday, collecting only around ₹0.45 Cr nett and taking its four-day total to just ₹4.95 Cr.
Daayra:
Friday: ₹1.00 Cr
Saturday: ₹1.75 Cr
Sunday: ₹1.75 Cr
Monday: ₹0.45 Cr
4-Day Total: ₹4.95 Cr nett
The BOGO offer was still active on Monday but failed to generate any meaningful response.
With the film already at ₹4.95 Cr after four days, ₹10 Cr nett lifetime is now looking out of reach. DISASTER
Meanwhile, #Vibe added around ₹1 Cr nett on Monday without the weekend discount offer, taking its four-day total to ₹8.60 Cr.
Vibe:
Friday: ₹1.85 Cr
Saturday: ₹2.75 Cr
Sunday: ₹3.00 Cr
Monday: ₹1.00 Cr
4-Day Total: ₹8.60 Cr nett
Vibe has comfortably beaten Daayra, but the Monday number is hardly impressive either. 👎
