Day 14: Fighter Box Office Collection: Midweek Drop for the Film Starring Deepika Padukone and Hrithik Roshan

The Siddharth Anand-directed aerial action thriller Fighter has had a rough start to the box office. The movie's earnings over the past few days have been in the single digits, despite a reasonably strong opening. The Hrithik Roshan-Deepika Padukone film further slowed down its path to the ₹ 200-crore club on day 14, as reported by Sacnilk, with its lowest week-2 earning of ₹ 2.75 crore. As of right now, the domestic box office has brought in ₹ 184.50 crore. Anil Kapoor, Karan Singh Grover, Akshay Oberoi, Sanjeeda Sheikh, and Marflix Pictures are among the film's impressive ensemble cast members. Viacom18 Studios and Marflix Pictures produced the movie together. Fighting's box office results have also suffered because the movie hasn't been released in any Gulf nations other than the United Arab Emirates. The breakdown Leading man Hrithik Roshan, meanwhile, has sent a thank-you note to the Fighter director and crew. The actor posted a brief clip from the movie on Instagram and stated, "It took me a while to understand Squadron Leader Shamsher Pathania's dichotomy. Call him Shammi or Patty, but there was always a tug of war inside him. Shammi is extremely sensitive, while Patty is stubborn and intensely focused. Patty is seeking atonement, while Shammi is consumed by guilt. While Patty disobeys rules and takes risks, Shammi obeys. Patty takes solace in the small space of his Sukhoi Su-30 MKI while Shammi searches for his safe haven. Patty is the #Fighter, and Shammi is the son, friend, and lover. We are grateful to @s1danand for patiently bringing us to your vision, pushing us to dizzying heights, and literally giving this dream wings. I am deeply grateful to the incredibly talented cast, @deepikapadukone, @anilskapoor, @iamksgofficial, @akshay0beroi, and @iamsanjeeda, for inspiring me to always give my all."

After becoming a father, Imran Khan recalls leaving Bollywood and realizing he had to work on himself in order to be the

Imran Khan revealed that he gave up his career as an actor because he wanted to be the best version of himself following the birth of his daughter Imara.Thanks to the internet, Imran Khan, who voluntarily left the film industry nine years ago, is beginning to prepare a comeback. The actor who was paired opposite Ranbir Kapoor garnered attention again after an innocuous remark on an Instagram post. Imran is now making baby strides toward turning to face the camera once more. Imran revealed in a recent interview that he began viewing his life and profession from a different angle after becoming a father and realized he needed to be the greatest version of himself for his daughter, even though being an actor was nearly in the way of that.Imran, who last starred alongside Kangana Ranaut in Katti Batti (2015), revealed in an interview with Vogue that he "hit a low in 2016 where I felt broken inside." Recognizing his advantages, Imran stated that at one point in his life, he was pondering some philosophical issues about life and that, as a well-known actor, he did not have to worry about money by the time he was thirty."I wasn't passionate about it enough to want to put in the effort to pursue it at that point, so it wasn't my career," he stated. For an actor who made a highly successful start in 2008 with Jaane Tu, Imran endured a run of failures. This was an odd turn, Ya Jaane Na. Imran discussed how becoming a father influenced him, saying, "I had recently become a father and thought, 'This is valuable.'" I consider this to be quite serious. For Imara, I tried to be the best version of myself. And that's when he realized what his true purpose in life was. "I made the decision that acting was no longer my profession. I had to take care of myself now, feel my best and be at my strongest for myImran wed Avantika, his former spouse, in 2011, and the two welcomed their daughter Imara into the world in 2014. 2019 saw the couple's divorce.  

Sad about Javed Akhtars animal remarks, Sandeep Reddy Vanga claims that watching Mirzapur by Farhan Akhtar will make people throw up.

Javed Akhtar criticized Animal, according to Sandeep Reddy Vanga, without seeing the whole movie. In addition, he counseled Akhtar to keep an eye on his abusive son Farhan Akhtar's Mirzapur.The portrayal of toxic masculinity in Sandeep Reddy Vanga's "Animal," starring Ranbir Kapoor as Ranvijay, drew criticism. Writer-lyricist Javed Akhtar deemed these movies risky. Sandeep responded by pleading with Akhtar to keep an eye on his son Farhan Akhtar's output before criticizing his movie."It is very clear that he did not watch the film," Sandeep stated in an interview with Siddharth Kannan. That comment makes it quite evident that he did not watch the entire movie. What can I say about someone who is speaking without having seen the movie? You naturally feel horrible since it is obvious that he hasn't watched the movie. But it's not just about him—if someone is hurling stones at a work of art, shouldn't they first consider their surroundings?"Why didn't he tell Farhan Akhtar the same thing when he was producing Mirzapur," he went on. Although I haven't watched the entire program, Duniya bhar ke gaali Mirzapur ek show mai hai. If you watch the Telugu translation of the show, you will feel like throwing up. Why doesn't he review his son's work?Speaking about Animal, Akhtar recently declared, "It's dangerous if a man asks a woman to lick his shoe or if a man says it's okay to slap a woman in a movie that becomes a huge hit." In the contentious scene, Zoya, played by Tripti Dimri, was shown being asked to lick Ranbir's shoe.Netflix, an over-the-top platform, recently published the film Animal. In addition, Bobby Deol, Anil Kapoor, and Rashmika Mandanna are featured in the movie. Over 900 crores of rupees have been made worldwide from Animal.

But Anu's fandom is no longer relevant.She looks back on her celebrity with nostalgia, and as a former lover, she is glad that she is not around anymore, having experienced it three decades after she rose to national prominence and men would scrawl "I love you Anu" on her building compound.

Soon, Pulkit Samrat and Kriti Kharbanda will wed. Going over their love story again

The upcoming nuptials of Pulkit Samrat and Kriti Kharbanda have prompted 'roka' rumors recently. (Image: Instagram/Ria Samrat Luthra)Although the pair hasn't revealed much about their marriage, they frequently post pictures of their family. (Image: Instagram/Ria Samrat Luthra)Bollywood couple Pulkit Samrat and Kriti Kharbanda have taken their relationship to the next level by becoming officially engaged after dating for years. Although the couple has not yet released an official statement, Pulkit posted a touching photo from their engagement ceremony to his Instagram story.In an interview, actor Pulkit Samrat revealed his and fiancée Kriti Kharbanda's plans to get married and how much they enjoy "staying best friends" in their relationship.Since many Bollywood couples have recently tied the knot, actor Pulkit Samrat was also questioned about when he planned to wed his partner, actor Kriti Kharbanda. The actor sidestepped the topic by calling the two of them "best friends" and stating that marriage occasionally tends to alter that equation.For almost three years, Pulkit and Kriti have been in a relationship. Together, the two have acted in Veerey Ki Wedding, Taish, and Pagalpanti. Despite their tendency to keep their marital plans to themselves, the two have been rather transparent about their romance.Pulkit recently said, "Mera toh funda simple hai (My funda is simple), as long as you are living as best friends things are sorted," in response to a query on marriage in an interview with Bombay Times. In this manner, "Your arguments and love are all friendly" (aapke jhagde aur pyaar friends wale hote hai). This equation between the two people occasionally changes when marriage is involved. Therefore, why worry so much if you are surrounded by your closest friends?The actor went on to discuss how their relationship works well together. "As closest friends or partners, we encourage one another to advance personally and concentrate on our careers. We're both driven, ambitious people. We need that ongoing encouragement since we have made our fair share of mistakes in our careers. She is a blessing in my life because she helps me stay focused and centered. To be the finest versions of ourselves so that we may be even better for one other is what we are doing right now, he said.Currently in production is Fukrey 3, the third entry in Pulkit's popular franchise. Suswagatam Khushmadeed is another project he is working on. In the meantime, Kriti will be starring in her first Malayalam film this year, Alone, starring opposite Mohanlal.  

Animal Sandeep Reddy Vangas political views and craft are equally immature.

Scene after credits: Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal is about as irredeemable as they come; it is intellectually bankrupt, morally repugnant, and stylistically incompetent.The film Animal, starring Ranbir Kapoor, is unbearably long. It starts with the protagonist, Ranvijay, marching into his father's steel mill and being literally put on a pedestal. There, he gives a passionate speech about honor and commitment while the business, Swastik Steel, is nicely positioned against a swastika in the background. Ranvijay is furious because his father just made it through a vicious attack. He lifts his right arm in the middle of his diatribe and commands his subjects to take an oath. In just a few minutes, director Sandeep Reddy Vanga's tribute to Adolf Hitler's Nuremberg rallies is over. You're a little taken aback and wonder, "Was this movie made by a child?"In contrast to Vanga's first picture, the effortlessly enraged Kabir Singh, Animal seems to have been made with offense in mind. However, as is often the case, insincerity is easily recognized. People were incensed by Kabir Singh's misogyny mostly because it seemed as though the film was determined to give its disturbed protagonist a free pass. The most provocative scenes are woven into the plot of Animal, a far more stylized and hence more challenging to watch picture, rather than the plot being provocative in and of itself. Ranvijay marches into a school carrying a loaded assault gun, tells his sweetheart to kiss his shoe, and gives a woman a lecture about menstruation. This kind of fake edginess leads to a movie where a phallic machineThe film portrays the natural neediness of its director, which is embodied in Ranvijay's never-ending need for his father's love, who isn't there. In the days after Animal's premiere—this was, after all, the period when he became a superstar—Vanga's principal grievance was that reviewers didn't find the film to be very good. Vanga never referenced Animal's hundreds of crores in earnings, even as the rest of his colleagues used the movie's box office numbers to defend its reckless politics, as if that mattered. He was staring at his Moby-Dick, and he was probably never going to get the critical appreciation that he appeared to realize in real time.And although though Vanga had just recently come to grips with this very likely truth, he was still having fits and insisted that Animal's "craft" should be valued separately from its themes. But let's talk about the filmmaking for the sake of argument. Vanga has refuted claims that he plagiarized Oldboy in Animal's pre-interval action block, but anyone who have watched Park Chan-wook's groundbreaking movie, a modern tragedy about the futility of retribution, would understand Vanga's motivation. Aside from the obvious spectacle of Choi Min-sik slicing through a swarm of foes, what really set Oldboy's iconic corridor battle sequence apart was the meticulously staged single shot that was captured on film.Since then, corridor fight scenes have become more and more prevalent; some of the best imitations can be seen in Marvel's Daredevil and Gareth Evans' The Raid. These two projects seemed to realize that the staging, not the location, was what gave Oldboy's pivotal battle scene its incredible intensity. Conversely, Vanga decides to keep the claustrophobic setting (as well as the axe) but eliminates the element that first gave the scene its unique quality.

Many offices have now fully opened following the COVID-19 outbreak, and businesses are requesting that their staff members return working from the office. However, many businesses are now allowing a 4-day work week culture, given the convenience of working from home and the work-life balance that many employees experienced during the pandemic. Germany has lately made headlines because it plans to experiment with a 4-day workweek for six months, beginning on February 1, 2024. The purpose of the study is to determine whether the four-day workweek culture that labor unions have proposed will indeed improve employee happiness, health, and productivity.Germany is not the only nation that has opted for a 4-day workweek culture, though. Here is a list of developed nations that have also embraced this.Belgium was the first nation in the European Union (EU) to introduce an optional 4-day work week in 2022. The catch is that, in a 4-day work week, the total number of working hours stays the same as it does in a 5-day work week. There are forty hours of work in a week.The Netherlands has the world's shortest workweeks on average, according to official statistics. There, employees put in just 29 hours a week at work. Despite the absence of official regulations, stories state that individuals in the Netherlands only work four days a week.According to an OECD report, Denmark has the second-shortest workweek, with 33 hours worked.

It states that employers in Australia should anticipate their staff to put in 38 hours a week of work. With the new work arrangement, called the 100:80:100 model, workers can work 80 percent of the hours and still keep 100% of their salary as long as they maintain 100% productivity. There are several models besides 100:80:100.
