Thanks to all the hype, Ranbir Kapoor's #Shamshera had a lot riding on it. Unfortunately, despite having approximately 4,300 screens across India, the film didn't perform well. 'Shamshera' opened to Rs. 10.25cr on Friday. According to reports, it collected Rs. 11cr on Sunday.

Helmed by Sajimon Prabhakaran #Malayankunju starring #FahadhFaasil has gained a good traction at the box office. The survival drama reportedly crossed the Rs. 6cr mark at the worldwide box office within 3 days of its release. It grossed Rs. 5.5cr from the Kerala box office alone.

#ThorLoveAndThunder continued to pull audiences even after its third weekend. On Friday, the film reportedly collected Rs. 60L & on Saturday it grossed Rs. 1.10cr. In total, the film has grossed Rs. 94.77cr & is expected to cross Rs. 97.50cr to Rs. 98cr by the end of this week.

Based on the life of ex-ISRO scientist Nambi Narayanan, R Madhavan's 'Rocketry: The Nambi Effect' opened to mixed reviews on Day 1 and didn't get much crowd either. Thanks to positive word of mouth, the film reportedly crossed Rs. 16.56cr in three weeks though.

Varun Dhawan and Kiara Advani's 'JugJugg Jeeyo' witnessed its fifth weekend irrespective of the film making its way on OTT. At the end of its fourth week, the film grossed Rs. 84.09cr and also collected Rs. 15L on Friday even though it faced competition from Kapoor's 'Shamshera.'
