'Taylor Swift: Showgirl' Movie Eyes Global Opening Around $50M: Box Office

‘Taylor Swift: Showgirl’ Movie Eyes Global Opening Around $50M: Box Office

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Wherever the AMC distributed Taylor Swift: The Official Release Party of a Showgirl lands at the box office, consider it unprecedented.

Not just in the mere fact that the No. 1 exhibitor in the world is releasing another one of her concert films, rather no other motion picture studio ever has dated a wide release two weeks out on an extremely low P&A campaign, largely focused on the social media push of its star, to what is expected to be a No. 1 haul at the box office.

Domestic estimates are $30M-$35M at 3,500 locations for the movie which is timed to the release of the 14x Grammy winner’s 12th studio album. International, where the movie is on sale in more than 50 markets, is looking at another $8M-$10M for a global bow on the high-end of $45M. Ala Eras Tour, the box office is largely driven by U.S./Canada.

Still a secret at the time of this post is exactly who directed this anticipated mix of lyrics music videos and docu bits.

Note this, even if Showgirl buckles with a $25M U.S./Canada opening, it ain’t a bad thing. It’s hard for some to read Swifties on tracking; the singer’s last AMC Concert movie, The Eras Tour, looked like a $100M+ opening, but filed the second best start stateside in October with $93.2M (behind 2019’s Joker which opened to $96.2M). Right now, women under 25 in first choice are huge at a 25 versus women over 25 (9) and men which are in the low single digits.

In first-day sales, we already told you that Showgirl had $15M, with AMC seeing their sixth biggest first day presales ever with around $7.5M. Sources say presales are now north of $20M. Showgirl is having a one weekend play, and there aren’t any Thursday previews.

At the end of the day, it’s all about selling albums for Swift. There just happens to be some movie tickets that can be sold along the way.

Some of Swift’s PR stunts include an appearance on the Graham Norton show in the UK on Friday, and there’s also a Spotify pop-up experience in NYC that began yesterday and runs through Oct. 2.

Swift will appear on The Tonight Show on Oct. 6 and Late Night With Seth Meyers on Oct. 8. It would not be shocking if she suddenly made a cameo on the Saturday Night Live season 51 opener this weekend.

In a weekend where A24’s Dwayne Johnson movie, The Smashing Machine, was expected to rally, Swift’s arrival stole PLFs from that movie, as well as Warner Bros.’ second weekend of Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another. Showgirl will now share PLFs with the Na’vi as Disney has the 3D re-release of James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way of Water which at 2,100 is expected to do $3M-$4M. The third highest grossing movie ever at $2.3 billion worldwide (seventh domestic at $684M) will have a sneak peek of Avatar: Fire & Ash at the end of the film (each theater features one of three rotating glimpses).

While Avatar 2 will have 90% of the Imax, One Battle After Another will hold onto its Imax 70MM auditoriums. The hope is that the Leonardo DiCaprio movie eases -40% or better with around $13M. Currently, in its first five days at the box office with a running cume of $27.7M, -2% compared to the same frame as Killers of the Flower Moon two years ago.

‘The Smashing Machine’

A24

Smashing Machine, which was made for net $50M production cost, largely covered by foreign presales, hopes for a $13M-$17M opening at 3,000 theaters, down from its initial $20M projection. The Benny Safdie directed movie is best with men over 25 in first choice. Reviews out of Venice (where Johnson cried during the standing ovation) and TIFF are at 76% certified fresh. Any optimism lies in the Johnson faithful and WWE fans showing up. The movie follows mixed-martial arts and UFC champion Mark Kerr’s wrestling tours in Japan, his struggle with drug addiction and turbulent marriage with his wife, played by Emily Blunt.

Bleecker Street has the Mercedes Bryce Morgan directed erotic thriller, Bone Lake, in 1,045 sites, also in the low single digits. The movie, which world premiered at Fantastic Fest, stands at 94% fresh with critics. Pic’s blurb: A couple’s vacation at a secluded estate is upended when they’re forced to share the mansion with a mysterious couple. A dream getaway spirals into a nightmarish maze of sex, lies, and manipulation, triggering a battle for survival.

IFC’s Good Boy at around 1,650 theaters, is also in the low single digits. The Ben Leonberg directed and co-written comedy horror thriller follows a loyal dog who moves to a rural family home with his owner. The he discovers supernatural forces lurking in the shadows and does what a brave pup must do to protest those he loves the most. Outlook is also low single digits with a RT critics score of 93% fresh.

The makers held a success meet of the film in Hyderabad today, with Pawan Kalyan in attendance. (Also read: ₹275 cr; beats Empuraan, Sitaare Zameen Par lifetime”>OG worldwide box office collection day 6: Pawan Kalyan film crosses ₹275 cr; beats Empuraan, Sitaare Zameen Par lifetime)

OG box office collection day 7: Pawan Kalyan plays a gangster named Ojas Gambheera in the Sujeeth film.

OG box office update

As per the latest update on Sacnilk, OG collected ₹ 5.96 crore on its seventh day of release. The film showed a slight dip in collections during the week days, but it has still managed to hold on to the momentum, given there has been strong word of mouth praise for it. OG opened with ₹ 21 crore, and saw a massive Thursday, collecting ₹63 crore- its highest single-day haul so far. Taking Wednesday’s collections into account, the film’s total collection after six days is ₹160.81 crore.

About OG

OG tells the story of a samurai named Ojas Gambheera (Pawan) who travels to India during the Second World War and grows up to become Satya Dada’s (Prakash Raj) right-hand man. He gives it all up due to an unforeseen incident and leads an idyllic life with Kanmani (Priyanka Mohan) and their daughter Tara before circumstances force him to pick up his katana again. The film ends by teasing a sequel which will explore more of OG’s story.

At the success meet, Pawan’s co-star Sriya Reddy praised him and said, “Pawan Kalyan sir encourages women. As a woman, I feel we’re not supported by men as much as we deserve. Then comes someone like Pawan sir… He’s not insecure about me taking center stage in a scene. I am in awe of him.”

Kantara Chapter 1 box office prediction: Rishab Shetty film may beat Saiyaara and Chhaava, but no match for OG, Coolie

Kantara Chapter 1 box office prediction: Rishab Shetty film may beat Saiyaara and Chhaava, but no match for OG, Coolie

by jummy84
written by jummy84

The much-awaited prequel to Kantara is releasing in theatres this Dussehra (2 October). The festive release is not just one of the most high-profile Kannada films of all time, but also among the biggest festive releases pan-India this year. Early advance booking trends indicate a solid opening for the film, but also show that its pan-India aspirations may have been a little too lofty.

Kantara Chapter 1 box office prediction: Rishab Shetty plays the lead in and directs the film, a prequel to the 2022 film Kantara.

Kantara Chapter 1 advance bookings

Written and directed by Rishab Shetty, Kantara Chapter 1 is a prequel to the 2022 blockbuster Kantara, which made over ₹400 crore at the box office. The upcoming film’s advance booking has crossed ₹12 crore gross for the opening day by 11 AM on the eve of its release. This figure is for all languages, and the number is dominated by the Kannada version, which alone accounts for ₹7.50 crore. The Hindi version is steadily rising with ₹2 crore advance booking gross so far.

Kantara Chapter 1 box office prediction

The original Kantara was a true pan-India hit, having earned ₹162 crore net in Kannada, ₹84 crore in Hindi, and ₹63 crore in Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam. This was despite the fact that its release was staggered. It was originally released only in Kannada, and the dubbed versions arrived only two weeks later. This time, the film is releasing in all five languages on one day, which will ensure a bigger opening. According to trade pundits, Kantara Chapter 1 is looking at a ₹30+ crore net opening in India. More liberal estimates put the number at even ₹40 crore.

This may include ₹15-17 crore from the Hindi version alone, a sizable number, but still less than what was initially expected. A week back, trade pundits were hoping for a ₹25-crore opening from Kantara Chapter 1 in Hindi alone. But those estimates have been lowered now.

Even then, a ₹35-40 crore opening for Kantara Chapter 1 would mean it will outdo every Bollywood release of the year, including Saiyaara ( ₹22 crore), Sikandar ( ₹26 crore), and Chhaava ( ₹31 crore). However, it is no match for some of the biggest pan-India releases of the year, such as Pawan Kalyan’s OG ( ₹84 crore) and Rajinikanth’s Coolie ( ₹65 crore).

All about Kantara Chapter 1

Kantara Chapter 1 stars Rishab Shetty in a tale set centuries before the events of the first Kantara. The film explores the birth of the mysteries depicted in the first film. It also stars Rukmini Vasanth, Jayaram, and Gulshan Devaiah. The film releases across India on 2 October.

'After the Hunt' Awards and Box Office Chances After NYFF

‘After the Hunt’ Awards and Box Office Chances After NYFF

by jummy84
written by jummy84

When Luca Guadagnino’s “After the Hunt” premiered at the Venice Film Festival in late August, it was greeted with some of the most divided reviews of the filmmaker’s career. Critics (candidly, including myself) were impressed by the performances and filmmaking but left bewildered by first-time screenwriter Nora Garrett’s muddled screenplay that tackles post-#MeToo society, privilege, and power in the academic world. Reviews were, generally speaking, mixed to negative, with a few standouts.

A month later, the film arrived as the opening night gala at the New York Film Festival. So how did his topical drama, about a Yale philosophy professor (Julia Roberts) tied up in her Black student’s (Ayo Edebiri) sexual assault accusation against a white colleague (Andrew Garfield), play at NYFF?

'Tuner'

It opened the highbrow two-week program, overseen by artistic director and former film critic Dennis Lim and managing director Matt Bolish, last Friday at Alice Tully Hall. Past Guadagnino films to play NYFF include “Queer,” “Bones and All,” and “Call Me by Your Name” — all of which scored better receptions throughout their run than “After the Hunt” has so far.

But can new word-of-mouth — not necessarily good, but at the very least new — boost “After the Hunt” at this point?

A sampling of mostly millennial critics and journalists at Friday night’s “After the Hunt” premiere that I spoke with at the official after-party at Tavern on the Green on the edges of Central Park, were also left cold by the movie. It runs long at just shy of 2 hours and 20 minutes, and one journalist I talked to said that, while the film wasn’t necessarily boring, its length led them to feel the pains of an incoherent narrative. There are plot elements that don’t always add up or seem easily ascribed to recognizable human behavior (such as why Julia Roberts’ character Alma keeps a picture that’s extremely revealing about a past secret taped under her bathroom vanity, rather than in the pied-à-terre she maintains as a private office).

But a colleague I’d spoken to who’d had a look at an earlier draft of the screenplay said that many elements were different in that script — including that very one. So we’re curious to hear from screenwriter Garrett about what changed and why.

The film, however, has its admirers, including another critic who appreciated what they felt was its astute look at how trauma is processed differently across generations. (Alma, it’s implied, is twice Edebiri’s character’s age.) “After the Hunt,” intended as Amazon MGM Studios’ big horse in the Oscar race this year, might not make it all the way to the Academy Awards despite hopes for Julia Roberts returning to the Best Actress category since she won in 2001 for “Erin Brockovich.” (Her last Oscar nomination altogether was for Supporting Actress in 2014 for “August: Osage County.”)

But where the movie could remain a player is the HFPA-dismantled Golden Globes, a handful of whose international spectrum of voters attended a packed press conference during the film’s weekend global junket. There, journalists (both in the room and joining via Zoom) asked engaging questions that Roberts and her cast and creative team praised — she was not having it at the Venice Film Festival, particularly when the first question asked at that Italian presser was, “Why does this movie undermine feminism?”

Roberts is a Globes darling, nominated most recently in 2023 for TV’s similarly on-topic “Gaslit” as Martha Mitchell. She’s won three times from 10 nominations, and the capaciousness of having two categories (Musical/Comedy and Drama) for Best Actress gives her room to play in. “After the Hunt” has a shot at playing better for two core audiences — the international coterie, and the Gen X or boomer audiences who didn’t necessarily come of age with such proximity to the topics investigated in this American film — many of which reflect the makeup of the 300-some Golden Globes body.

Amazon MGM Studios opens “After the Hunt” in select theaters on Friday, October 10 followed by a nationwide release on Friday, October 17. How it plays for non-trade critics will factor into its eventual theatrical business. And when the film eventually reaches Amazon’s Prime Video streaming service, fans of Edebiri, Roberts, Garfield, and Guadagnino can tune in with little risk, and share thoughts and soundbites and viral clips of the movie on social media, where it may well find an entirely new life.

Rishab Shetty recalls working as office boy, producer’s driver in Mumbai: ‘Kabhi socha nahi tha yahan tak aaunga’

Rishab Shetty, known for Kantara, reflected on his journey from driver to director during a press meet for Kantara Chapter 1, emphasising gratitude for success.

Kannada star Rishab Shetty gained nationwide recognition with his 2022 film Kantara, and is now all set to entertain audiences with his upcoming pan-India project, Kantara Chapter 1. However, his journey to success was not without obstacles. Recently, the makers held a press meet in Mumbai, attended by the film’s cast. During the event, Rishab recalled how he once worked as a driver in Mumbai before becoming a director.

Rishab Shetty recalls working as an office boy.

When Rishab Shetty used to work as a driver

Rishab expressed gratitude for the love he has received over the years for his films and said, “Mumbai is very special for me because in 2008, Andheri West mein ek production house ka office boy tha main, ek producer ka driver tha. Toh hum soch sakte, cinema kya kar sakta hai. Ek film karke itna reputation, love, blessing mila, aisa socha bhi nahi tha. Us cinema production house ki road par vada pav khate waqt kabhi soch bhi nahi sakta tha ki yahan tak aaunga. Bohot bohot abhaari hoon main (I used to be an office boy at a production house in Andheri West and a producer’s driver. So you can imagine what cinema can do. I never even thought that making one film would bring me so much reputation, love, and blessings. While eating vada pav on the road near that production house, I could never have imagined I would come this far. I am extremely grateful).”

Recently, the makers of Kantara Chapter 1 had planned a pre-release event in Chennai. However, following the tragic stampede during Tamil actor Vijay’s rally in Karur, Tamil Nadu, the event was cancelled. The film’s production house, Hombale Films, issued an official statement, “In view of the recent unfortunate incident, we have decided to cancel our Kantara: Chapter 1 promotional event scheduled in Chennai tomorrow. We believe this is a time for reflection and solidarity with those affected. Our deepest condolences and prayers are with the families impacted. We are grateful for your understanding and support, and we look forward to meeting our audience in Tamil Nadu at a more appropriate time.”

About Kantara Chapter 1

Directed by Rishab Shetty, the film is a prequel to the 2022 hit Kantara. The story delves deeper into the origins of the mythological tradition and ancestral conflict introduced in the first film. Alongside Rishab in the lead role, the film also stars Rukmini Vasanth, Jayaram, and Gulshan Devaiah in key roles. It is scheduled for release in cinemas on 2 October, where it will clash with Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor, Sanya Malhotra, and Rohit Saraf’s Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari.

The wait will end on October 2nd, with the release of the second part of the film, Kantara: Chapter 1. Ahead of the release, the film’s team arrived in Mumbai to promote the film. The trailer and song of this pan-India film were shown to the media. A comic book based on Kantara was also released on the occasion.

As the film team was in Mumbai, writer-director and actor of the film Kantara, Rishabh Shetty recalled his struggling days in Mumbai. He added, “Mumbai is special to me because in this city, in 2008, I was an office boy at a producer’s house in Andheri West. I used to drive the producer’s car. But cinema brought me here. This is the power of cinema.”

The first part of the film Kantara was released in 2022. Made at a cost of around ₹14 crore, the film grossed over ₹300 crore worldwide. The film also enjoyed considerable popularity in Hindi. Now, the second installment will follow a similar story, set in our country.

Rishab said, “When we were making the first Kantara, we didn’t think it would be such a huge success. But gradually, people started watching it, and the film became a huge hit. We are grateful to everyone who made Kantara such a big success. I hope you will give this film the same love.”

The film, Kantara Chapter 1, is based on mythology and depicts the story of Panjurli Deva and Guliga Deva. The film will also depict a fierce battle. The film was shot over a period of approximately 250 days. The trailer reveals that the film will feature stunning VFX and high-voltage action sequences, providing a grand cinematic experience for audiences.

Speaking about Kantara Chapter 1, Rishab Shetty said, “We’ve put in a lot of hard work into making this film. We’ve done a lot of research. From the costumes to the sound of the era the story is set in, everything has been researched.”

Triptii Dimri Opens Up About Laila Majnu’s Box Office During Its Initial Release; Says, “Avinash Tiwary Had Been Here For 14 Years…”

written by jummy84

Triptii Dimri had made her lead debut with the now-cult classic Laila Majnu, a romantic saga that had a decent run during its initial theatrical release in 2018. Also, starring Avinash Tiwary as the male lead, the Sajid Ali directorial had received positive reviews; however, it performed decently at the box office.

Triptii Dimri On Laila Majnu’s Box Office Failure

Recently, the Bulbbul actress recalled the phase and expressed concern over co-star Avinash Tiwary, who had been in the industry longer than she had. “Laila Majnu will always remain a very special film for me. At that time we were not even famous, so there was no pressure. We would go to the homes of locals and eat there, and I felt deeply attached to Kashmir,” Triptii expresses.

She adds, “When the film did not do well, I felt very disappointed because we were back to zero. I had been around for at least two years, but Avinash Tiwary had been here for 14 years. Then we started giving auditions again.”

Despite its initial box office performance, Laila Majnu gained huge following, attracting cult status. In 2024, it witnessed a re-release and surpassed the lifetime collections of its original run. “I knew it would receive appreciation, because even today, eight years after its release, people still talk about it,” Dimri says.

Even today, Laila Majnu continues to be the top choice among romantic film lovers, especially for its tragic romantic plot, engaging narrative, impactful performances and deeply-moving soundtrack.

Updated on: Sept 28, 2025 09:44 am IST

Homebound box office collection day 2: The film earned ₹50 lakh on Saturday. The film has been selected as the official Oscar entry from India.

Homebound box office collection day 2: The film starring Ishaan Khatter, Vishal Jethwa, and Janhvi Kapoor in lead roles received lukewarm response in India. As per Sacnilk.com, Homebound has earned only ₹80 lakh at the domestic box office so far. Homebound is the Oscar entry film from India.

Homebound box office collection day 2: Ishaan Khatter and Vishal Jethwa headline this Neeraj Ghaywan film.

Homebound domestic box office collection

According to the report, Homebound earned ₹30 lakh on Friday. It collected ₹50 lakh nett in India as per early estimates on Saturday. This is much less than Ishaan’s film Dhadak, which earned ₹11.04 crore on day two, and Phone Bhoot, which collected ₹2.75 crore as per Sacnilk.com. Vishal’s Salaam Venky had opened at ₹55 lakh on day two of its release.

HT review of Homebound

The Hindustan Times review of the film read, “Vishal Jethwa and Ishaan Khatter bring vulnerability to their roles, their chemistry as childhood friends fully convincing. Ishaan’s emotional breakdown hits hard in one scene, while Vishal’s turn in the climax lingers long after. Janhvi Kapoor delivers an earnest performance, while Shalini Vatsa, as Chandan’s mother, quietly grounds the film with grace.”

“Overall, Homebound is not just a film about friendship, caste, or migration. It is a reminder of humanity brought to its knees by a pandemic, and of the invisible lives that bore the heaviest weight in our country,” it added.

About Homebound

Directed by Neeraj Ghaywan, Homebound has been selected as the official Oscar entry from India in the Best International Feature category. Homebound is inspired by journalist Basharat Peer’s article Taking Amrit Home, also titled (A Friendship, a Pandemic and a Death Beside the Highway).

It portrays the childhood friendship between a Muslim and a Dalit who chase a police job that promises them the dignity they have long been denied due to their surnames. Martin Scorsese serves as an executive producer on the film, which is produced by Karan Johar and Adar Poonawalla. The film had its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival and was also screened at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Jolly LLB 3 Box Office Collection Day 8: Akshay Kumar’s Film Defies Odds, Earns Rs 4 Crore Despite Tough Competition | Glamsham.com

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi’s courtroom drama Jolly LLB 3 continues its steady performance at the box office, even as it faces stiff competition from Pawan Kalyan’s They Call Him OG and Ishaan Khatter’s Homebound. Despite the crowded release schedule, the film is holding its ground, with fans praising its mix of legal drama and social commentary.

Directed by Subhash Kapoor, Jolly LLB 3 was released on September 19 and has a runtime of 157 minutes. The film, made on a ₹120 crore budget, opened decently with a net collection of ₹12.5 crore on Day 1 in India. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the film earned ₹4 crore net on Day 8 (Friday) — mirroring its Thursday performance — bringing its Indian net total to ₹78 crore.

Globally, the film entered the ₹100 crore club by Day 6, and by the end of its first week, it has reportedly grossed ₹113 crore worldwide, including ₹24.50 crore from overseas markets, according to IMDb and Sacnilk.

The film is on track to surpass the lifetime collection of the original Jolly LLB (₹48.7 crore) and is inching closer to matching or even overtaking Jolly LLB 2 (₹201.34 crore lifetime gross). The second weekend will be crucial in determining its long-term box office fate.

The story follows Rajaram Solanki, a poor farmer who dies by suicide after being exploited by corrupt officials and a powerful builder, Haribhai Khaitan. Akshay Kumar plays Advocate Jolly Mishra, who initially supports the builder but later teams up with Arshad Warsi’s Jolly Tyagi to expose the truth.

The film also stars Huma Qureshi, Saurabh Shukla, Gajraj Rao, and Amrita Rao in pivotal roles. Jolly LLB 3 continues to resonate with audiences for its relevant message and gripping courtroom drama.
