Spider-Man Brand New Day Box Office collection day 11: Tom Holland's film SURPASSES Avatar The Way of Water's collection in India

Spider-Man: Brand New Day continues to dominate the Indian box office. The Tom Holland-led superhero film has already become one of the biggest Hollywood hits in India and is now just a few crores away from crossing the massive Rs 500 crore gross mark.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day box office collection day 11

According to early estimates by Sacnilk, Spider-Man: Brand New Day earned Rs 34.70 crore net in India on Day 11 (second Sunday), with the film playing across 13,862 shows. Its estimated gross collection for the day stands at Rs 41.53 crore.

The film recorded an 11.9% jump compared with its second Saturday collection of Rs 31 crore. The growth is particularly impressive considering it had earned around Rs 15 crore on its second Friday.

With Sunday's figures added, the film's second weekend collection stands at an impressive Rs 80.70 crore net.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day continues its strong run

The Marvel film had a blockbuster start in India, collecting Rs 257.95 crore net during its extended opening weekend. It went on to finish its first week with a massive Rs 334.75 crore net.

Although collections slowed during the second week, the film has continued to attract strong footfalls. Its second-week collection has already reached an estimated Rs 96.59 crore gross a remarkable number for a Hollywood release in India.

The film's overall India net collection has now reached an estimated Rs 415.45 crore, while its India gross stands at around Rs 496.86 crore. That leaves Spider-Man: Brand New Day just a few crores short of the Rs 500 crore gross milestone. With final Sunday figures still awaited, the film could potentially cross the mark very soon.

If the early estimates hold and the film gets another strong start to the third week, Spider-Man: Brand New Day could become the first Hollywood film to cross Rs 500 crore gross in India, further cementing its place among the biggest international blockbusters released in the country.

Spider-Man surpasses Avengers: Endgame and Avatar: The Way of Water

The Tom Holland starrer has already overtaken the India box-office benchmarks set by several Hollywood blockbusters. Avengers: Endgame previously held the second spot among the highest-grossing Hollywood films in India, with a lifetime gross of around Rs 445 crore. Spider-Man: Brand New Day has comfortably surpassed that figure.

It has also moved ahead of James Cameron's Avatar: The Way of Water, which ended its theatrical run in India with a gross collection of approximately Rs 477.50 crore. With Spider-Man: Brand New Day now sitting at around Rs 496.86 crore gross in India, all eyes are on the next few days. The big question is no longer whether the film will cross Rs 500 crore, but how quickly it gets there.

DC ending EXPLAINED: Does Lokesh Kanagaraj's Devadas get his happy ending with Wamiqa Gabbi's Chandra? Here's what happens

Lokesh Kanagaraj surprised everyone by stepping in front of the camera for DC: The Bloody Valentine. The film, directed by Arun Matheswaran, hit theaters on August 7 and tells the story of Devadas, a gangster trying to outrun his brutal past. Wamiqa Gabbi plays Chandra, the woman who changes his life. Their dangerous journey leads to a big question: does it all come together in the end?

DC: The Bloody Valentine plot in a nutshell

Devadas isn't looking for trouble at first, he's just out for payback. A police officer kills an innocent man and snatches Rs 7 lakh Devadas had saved for his son's education. Devadas takes matters into his own hands and kills the cop. Of course, that puts him right in the police crosshairs. On the run, he bumps into Parvathy, a bar singer. They fall for each other, but their romance ends abruptly when Parvathy gets killed during a police sting aimed at Devadas and his gang.

They catch Devadas, but he escapes lockup. That's when he meets Chandra, in a brothel, and his story takes a sharp turn.

Why does Devadas help her?

Chandra has spent nearly two decades trapped in that brothel. Life on the outside is almost a foreign concept to her. Once Devadas learns what she's been through, something stirs inside him. He doesn't just walk away, he fights his way through the brothel, determined to free her and the other women stuck there. He brings Chandra with him. At first, it's just about helping someone in need. But soon, their connection deepens into something more.

Chandra becomes a key part of Devadas' journey. Together, they dodge the police and try to scrape together enough money to help the boy who lost his father, the one who set Devadas on this road in the first place.

DC climax: Does Devadas save the boy?

Everything boils down to Devadas facing his own violent past and the guilt he's carried for years. Trying to help the young boy isn't just about the cash, it's Devadas' shot at righting a wrong made by the same violent world that shaped him. Chandra doesn't leave his side. She helps him gather the money and outrun danger at every turn but escape isn't simple. The police eventually catch up, leading to a tense showdown.

Do Devadas and Chandra end up together?

At its heart, the film is about Devadas and Chandra. After all they endure, they find a fragile but genuine sense of companionship in each other in the midst of chaos. Devadas' earlier love story with Parvathy ended in loss. But with Chandra, it's different. Their relationship is about survival, trust, and a fragile hope for a fresh start. The film doesn't wrap things up in a neat, happy-ending package. Instead, it leaves their future wide open but hopeful. For Devadas, after a lifetime spent chasing revenge, the real victory is finding a shot at peace by connecting with someone else.

So, DC isn't your standard love story. It's more about redemption and the messy, unfinished business of changing your own fate.

How's DC doing at the box office?

DC: The Bloody Valentine brought in Rs 4.4 crore on day one. The momentum picked up on day two, hitting about Rs 7 crore and landing at a total of Rs 11.4 crore so far. With Lokesh Kanagaraj making his acting debut and Wamiqa Gabbi starring opposite him, the film has definitely sparked curiosity, mostly because of its gritty action and unconventional love story.

Director Shakeel Noorani, 73, ARRESTED over alleged rape of 33 year old actress; She claims he drugged her, threatened to LEAK video

Police arrested filmmaker Shakeel Noorani, 73, early on August 8 after a 33-year-old actress accused him of rape and sexual assault. Noorani, known for movies like Bade Dil Wala and Joru Ka Ghulam, now faces a police investigation after the actress brought forward serious charges. The actress told police that Noorani assaulted her multiple times and threatened her with a video he claimed to have. Officers registered a case against him under several sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).

Actress makes serious allegations

She said she first met Noorani at an awards show in Lokhandwala back in 2016. He talked to her about possible work and told her to keep in touch. Years later, she went to his home in Malvani to discuss a script. According to her statement, he offered her a drink, and after that, she blacked out. When she came to, she discovered he had a video on his phone. He allegedly used it to threaten her, warning that he'd share it with her family or the police if she spoke up.

Shakeel Noorani remanded to police custody

The actress added that Noorani assaulted her repeatedly and kept giving her contraceptive pills after the alleged incidents. Police are now digging into these claims, focusing on the video and trying to piece together what happened. They want to know if similar acts happened elsewhere.

Shakeel Noorani's lawyer denies allegations

Noorani's lawyer, Vikas Singh Goar, says his client is innocent and is being framed. He told Mid-Day that the case is still under investigation and nothing has been proven in court, Noorani is still presumed innocent. After his arrest, police took Noorani to the Borivali Holiday Court and asked for custody so they could check out the video, investigate further, and see if there are other possible victims. The judge sent Noorani to police custody until August 12.

The investigation's ongoing. More details will probably surface as police dig into the evidence and the actress's allegations.

Gaurav Khanna BREAKS DOWN on Khatron Ke Khiladi 15, reveals how 'Panauti' tag haunted his career

Gaurav Khanna may have won reality shows before, but even now, as a contestant on Khatron Ke Khiladi 15, he still carries scars from the early days of his TV career. In the latest episode, the Anupamaa star talked about being labelled a "panauti"and how that tag haunted him every time he signed on for a new show. Things started off light, just a phone-checking task for fun, until host Rohit Shetty found Gaurav's messages and pretty much asked him straight up what scares him the most about his career. That's when Gaurav laid it all out.

Back in his early TV days, he kept landing roles, but none of his shows lasted more than a year. Eventually, people started whispering that Gaurav's shows didn't work, and that label stuck. He said it's tough when a show does well, everyone gets the credit, but when a show fails, all the blame lands on him and it always feels personal. That anxiety followed him to auditions, and every new project carried that extra weight.

He got emotional talking about it. Even now, when he's trying out for something new, there's that nagging feeling, what if this show tanks and everyone starts pointing at him again? For an actor, always being seen as unlucky just eats away at your confidence. His confession gave fans a glimpse of a side they probably never saw before.

Rohit Shetty reminds Gaurav of his wins

Apparently, Gaurav had also spoken about this fear with Hussain Kuwajerwala, admitting that even after surviving risky stunts on Khatron Ke Khiladi 15, he was "shit scared and petrified" deep down but Rohit Shetty wasn't about to let him wallow in it. He reminded Gaurav that he's already flipped the script after winning Bigg Boss and Celebrity MasterChef India. Sometimes success comes out of nowhere, after years of struggle. Rohit told him to just keep doing his thing instead of worrying about what people say.

Now, Gaurav's ride on Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 is turning out to be something else entirely. He's gone from victory laps to tackling fears head-on, facing challenges that regularly freak him out but he keeps showing up.

Toxic: Nayanthara REVEALS why she usually stays away from film promotions, says ‘Yash just made a call’

It's not often you see Nayanthara show up at film promotions, but Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups convinced her to make an exception. She made a rare appearance at the grand trailer launch for Yash's highly-anticipated action drama in Bengaluru, and she had a good reason for it. As she put it, it just took one call from Yash to get her there.

Nayanthara initially said no to Toxic

Nayanthara plays Ganga, Yash's sister, in this Geetu Mohandas film. She admitted she was hesitant at first, she actually said no to the project when Geetu reached out but Geetu wasn't ready to take no for an answer. After a lot of convincing, Nayanthara agreed to listen to the story. That one narration changed her mind. She left the meeting amazed by Geetu's vision and realized this was something truly different. After that, she just knew the audience was in for a treat.

Nayanthara says she is 'not very good' at promotional events

At the trailer launch, Nayanthara talked about why she usually skips promotional events. She said it's not because she doesn't want to support her films, she just doesn't feel comfortable with promotions. "It's not that I don't want to attend promotional events, it's just that I'm not very good at it. So I stay away from it," she explained ut Toxic felt special. Yash's phone call sealed the deal for her.

Actress heaps praise on her co-star

She had nothing but praise for Yash, not just the actor fans see on screen, but the person he is off-camera. Nayanthara's worked with plenty of big stars, but she pointed out how Yash lives up to his superstar image in real life too. She also made sure to mention her other co-stars, Rukmini Vasanth, Tara Sutaria, Kiara Advani, and Huma Qureshi.

From what we see in the trailer, the brother-sister bond between her and Yash adds some emotional weight to what looks like a wild, violent, and chaotic action drama.

Right now, the trailer has everyone buzzing. Yash shows up in a darker, unpredictable role maybe even playing double. The film promises a mix of crime, violence, romance, and family drama, all under Geetu Mohandas's direction. With Nayanthara as Ganga, Yash front and center, and a director with a clear vision, Toxic is shaping up to be more than just another action flick. It's set to hit theatres on August 26, 2026 and after Nayanthara's unexpected appearance and all the excitement surrounding the film, people are really looking forward to it.

Varun Dhawan To Star in YRF’s First-Ever Horror Film, 2027 Release Planned

Varun Dhawan is all set to enter the horror genre with Yash Raj Films' first-ever horror feature. The much-awaited project is expected to hit theatres in 2027 and will be directed by Abhay Pannu, known for Rocket Boys.

Varun Dhawan takes on a new genre with YRF

According to sources close to YRF, Varun Dhawan has been roped in to headline the banner's first horror film. The project marks YRF's entry into the horror genre and is being planned as a theatrical release.

The film is expected to go on floors later this year, with the makers eyeing a 2027 release. While details about the story and Varun's character are currently being kept under wraps, the project is expected to explore a different side of the actor.

Rocket Boys director Abhay Pannu to helm the film

The horror film will be directed by Abhay Pannu, who is best known for creating and directing the acclaimed series Rocket Boys. Pannu has also written the screenplay for the upcoming project.

His move from the world of historical drama to horror adds another interesting element to the film, especially as this will be his theatrical film directorial debut.

Varun Dhawan reunites with YRF after Sui Dhaaga

The upcoming horror film will also mark Varun Dhawan's second collaboration with Yash Raj Films. The actor previously worked with the banner in Sui Dhaaga: Made In India, which also starred Anushka Sharma.

With this project, Varun is set to explore a genre that he has not headlined in his filmography so far, while YRF will venture into a completely new space with its first horror feature.

YRF's first horror film creates buzz

Yash Raj Films has largely been associated with romance, action, drama and its expanding spy universe. Its decision to enter the horror space with Varun Dhawan at the centre has already made the project one to watch.

More details about the film's title, female lead, supporting cast and exact release date are expected to be announced as production gets underway later this year.

Yash’s Toxic to see RECORD-BREAKING box office collection in Karnataka

Yash is gearing up for one of the biggest theatrical rollouts Karnataka has ever witnessed. Ahead of its worldwide release, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups is being positioned to shatter existing box office records in the actor's home state, with the makers eyeing the widest-ever release for a Kannada film.

As anticipation builds towards the trailer launch, fans have already flooded social media with countdown posts and fan edits of Toxic. Let's take a look at how massive Toxic's Karnataka release is shaping up to be, and why the film could rewrite box office history.

Toxic Eyes Widest-Ever Karnataka Release

Toxic is being mounted as the biggest theatrical release in Karnataka's history, with the makers aiming to secure almost every single screen and multiplex across the state on day one. Yash's home banner Monster Mind Creations has partnered with KVN Productions to handle distribution themselves, marking Yash's entry into distribution alongside his roles as actor and producer. This gives the team direct control over the film's rollout in Karnataka, and insiders describe the release pattern as one that could break every record previously set by the KGF franchise.

Bengaluru is expected to witness an all-time high number of Day One screenings, and the makers are reportedly planning early morning and special shows to accommodate the massive demand across the state.

Can Toxic Break KGF Chapter 2's Opening Day Record?

With Toxic's release date just weeks away, the big question on everyone's mind is whether this Yash starrer can dethrone KGF Chapter 2's record for the biggest opening day at the Karnataka box office with a gross of Rs 26.5 crore. Rishab Shetty's Kantara Chapter 1 came close to breaking that record but ultimately fell short, opening at Rs 23.5 crore on day one.

Given Yash's massive stardom in his home state and the fact that Toxic is now releasing solo after being freed from its earlier clash with Dhurandhar 2, trade experts believe the film has a real shot at a historic opening. The film marks Yash's first big-screen return since KGF Chapter 2, and with ticket rate hikes expected across Karnataka theatres, the film's opening day numbers could soar even higher than industry estimates.

Toxic Trailer Launch

With just days to go for the trailer launch of Toxic on August 8, excitement among fans has reached a fever pitch. As the countdown for Toxic's trailer launch grows closer, fans have taken over social media with posts, fan art, and theories about the film's plot.

Ever since the project was announced, Toxic has remained one of the most anticipated films of the year. From its striking first look and chart-topping songs Tabaahi and Madhosh, people are really excited to see how director Geetu Mohandas' ambitious movie is going to turn out.

The Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups features a star-studded cast. You will get to see Yash alongside Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Tara Sutaria, Rukmini Vasanth, and Huma Qureshi. Directed by Geetu Mohandas and produced by KVN Productions and Monster Mind Creations, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups is set for a worldwide theatrical release on August 26, 2026. With the scale of its Karnataka rollout and the frenzy building online, the trailer launch on August 8 looks set to be a landmark moment, as fans across the globe prepare to finally step into the world of Toxic.
