After a gap of three years, Rowdy hero Vijay Deverakonda arrived in theatres with ‘Liger’. The film was released under massive expectations and Vijay sounded so confident before it came out. But the movie turned out to be a colossal disappointment and trade pundits predict that it is on its way to becoming a huge disaster.
Fans were severely hurt by Puri Jagannadh’s blow par writing and execution. Whilst everyone is bashing the film, the ‘Arjun Reddy’ hero was spotted enjoying India vs Pakistan match that was held in Dubai. As it is known, the Indian Men’s Cricket team is playing the Asia Cup in UAE and the most hyped India-Pakistan match happened on Sunday where India emerged victorious.
Apart from the nail-biting game, it was Vijay Deverakonda’s presence in the stadium which garnered a lot of attention. Dressed in a white kurta, Vijay is seen enjoying the game and extending his support to team India. He even had a chat with the commentators and his clicks from the stadium are currently going viral.
After a disastrous result like ‘Liger’, Vijay is tied up with Puri Jagannadh for another project named ‘Jana Gana Mana’. Produced by Charmme and Puri, the first schedule has already been wrapped up and dusky siren Pooja Hegde is the heroine in it. Vijay is also working on a romantic entertainer titled ‘Khushi’, directed by ‘Majili’ and ‘Ninnu Kori’ fame Shiva Nirvana. Samantha is playing the female in this project. He also announced a project with intelligent filmmaker Sukumar and this movie is expected to start at the end of 2023.

Dhurandhar Shows Strong Box Office Momentum
Dhurandhar, the spy-action drama directed by Aditya Dhar and headlined by Ranveer Singh, hit theatres last Friday and has been showing a solid upward trend. A decent opening combined with strong word of mouth helped the film gather momentum through the weekend, with BookMyShow numbers reflecting the positive buzz.
On day one, Dhurandhar sold 376K tickets on BookMyShow. Day two saw an impressive jump to 462K, followed by a further rise to 490K on day three. Monday, being a working day, dropped to 378K, yet held steady and stayed close to the opening day count. On Tuesday, the film climbed again with 408K tickets, surpassing both Friday and Monday.
Early advance bookings indicate an even stronger Wednesday. PIC advances stood at 47,000 on Monday, 80,000 on Tuesday, and 98,000 for Wednesday at the time of reporting. If this pace continues, Wednesday could emerge as the film’s biggest day yet. The second weekend is also expected to outperform the first.
Dhurandhar is the first part of a two-film story, with the sequel slated for release on March 19, 2026. If the current momentum sustains, part two could easily open bigger at the box office.
Produced by Jyoti Deshpande, Aditya Dhar, and Lokesh Dhar under Jio Studios and B62 Studios, the film features an ensemble cast including Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, Sara Arjun, and Rakesh Bedi, along with Manav Gohil, Danish Pandor, Saumya Tandon, and Gaurav Gera in supporting roles.
