After Sikandar’s Failure, Ar Murugadoss Gets Honest About Struggling With Hindi Films & Returns To Tamil Cinema ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Ar Murugadoss has shown his abilities as a director in three languages: Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi. His successful Tamil films, when remade in Bollywood, also tasted success. Ghajini first came out in Tamil starring Suriya in the lead. It was remade in Bollywood with the same title and director, but this time the protagonist role was taken up by Aamir Khan. Similarly, Thuppakki, which released in 2012 starring Vijay, was remade in Bollywood with the title Holiday. It was theatrically released in 2014, starring Akshay Kumar in the lead. So when Murugadoss decided to make an original Hindi film without relying on a proven script, the pre-release hype was high. The film was headlined by Salman Khan, and everyone was expecting a success. Unfortunately, the magic wore off, and the film flopped,...

Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par has grossed over ₹261 crores worldwide (after 31 days), earning critical acclaim and re-establishing his presence at the box office. This is a substantial figure – more than double the collections of his previous film, Laal Singh Chaddha (2022), which concluded its theatrical run with a gross of ₹129 crores. The film’s performance marks the end of a long dry spell for Aamir, with his last major blockbuster being Dangal (2016), nearly a decade ago. To understand how Aamir Khan has reinvented himself time and again – and why the years ahead promise another bold chapter – we must examine the astrological currents that have guided his journey: Saturn’s measured discipline, Venus’s golden reign, and the introspective strength of the Moon.

Not Dangal—Andhadhun Secretly Made 3.5x More In China(Photo Credit –Facebook)

Celebrated Indian actor Aamir Khan has delivered several massive box office hits throughout his illustrious career. His films hold the distinction of breaching the coveted 100-crore mark (with Ghajini), the 200-crore mark (with 3 Idiots), and the 300-crore mark (with Pk). But it’s Dangal, the widely acclaimed wrestling drama that outshines them all. After its domestic (₹538.04 crores) and international (₹1521 crores) theatrical run, Dangal amassed a staggering worldwide box office collection of ₹2059.04 crores.

Out of this, more than ₹1300 crores came from China’s box office alone, making it the highest-grossing Indian movie ever globally. But, here’s the real surprise: another cult Indian film quietly pulled off an even more impressive feat — earning nearly 3.5 times its domestic gross at the Chinese box office. Can you guess which film did that? Read on to find out.

How much has Sitaare Zameen Par earned in India in 23 days?

The weekend boost was much-needed as the box office collection had fallen below the one crore mark. On day 23, Sitaare Zameen Par earned 2.50 crores in the domestic market. It saw a huge 163% growth in the last 24 hours, as only 95 lakhs were minted on Friday.

The net collection surges to an estimated 156.99 crore net, which is approximately 185.24 crores in gross earnings. Rs Prasanna’s directorial is made on a budget of 90 crores. It is...

In the last decade, blockbusters like Dangal, Pathaan, Chhaava, and Stree 2 have set new benchmarks at the worldwide box office. Several generations, including Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Ranbir Kapoor, have given massive successes in Bollywood. But do you know, only 15 films have entered the 500 crore club globally? Scroll below for a detailed analysis.

Which was the first 500 crore Bollywood film worldwide?

It is very well known that Aamir Khan introduced the 100, 200, and 300 crore club in Bollywood with Ghajini, 3 Idiots, and Pk, respectively. But did you know, Mr Perfectionist also welcomed the first 500 crore club? In 2013, Dhoom 3 became the first Bollywood film to achieve the milestone with its global lifetime of 601 crore gross.

However, Dhoom 3 isn’t the fastest film to enter the 500 crore club. It was Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2,...

Unlike its name, Sitaare Zameen Par is flying high in the sky with an unbelievable hold at the box office.

Passes the Monday test with flying colors!

As per the official figures, Sitaare Zameen Par collected 8.50 crores on day 4. It saw only a 20.50% drop compared to 10.70 crores garnered on the opening day. The hold is fantastic, considering the competition from Housefull 5.

Aamir Khan is generating a lot of buzz with his new arrival at the box office – Sitaare Zameen Par. The actor brought the 100 crore club to Bollywood with Ghajini and has been the leader for most of the most significant box office achievements of Indian Cinema! One of the strongest moves of the actor is said to be tapping the China Box Office!

Aamir Khan Rules The China Box Office!

Most people think that Aamir Khan is the first Indian actor to rule the China box office with Dangal. In fact, one of the film’s most significant achievements was earning 100 crore in a single day in the territory, a feat no Hindi film has ever achieved!

Bollywood’s First China Record!

However, what if we tell you that it was not Aamir Khan but his father,...

In a film industry that’s increasingly influenced by algorithms and digital deals, Aamir Khan is making a subtle yet powerful statement. While many blockbuster films are rushing to streaming platforms for a second chance after their theatrical release, Khan is standing firm with Sitaare Zameen Par, turning down a staggering ₹120 crore offer from Amazon Prime Video for the film’s digital rights. His message is crystal clear: he values the magic of the big screen and the shared experience of watching a movie in a theater—something that streaming just can’t replicate.

Set to hit theaters on June 20, Sitaare Zameen Par isn’t just another emotional drama from Bollywood’s “thinking actor.” It represents a significant cultural moment where commercial interests meet a deeper philosophical stance. In a time when theatrical windows are shrinking and audiences have come to expect films on their living room screens within weeks,...

Sikandar Ott Release Date Update ( Photo Credit – YouTube )

Sikandar, starring Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna, failed to create any impact at the Indian box office. Yes, it entered the 100 crore club, but that was the bare minimum expectation from it. The magnum opus was expected to set the cash registers ringing and break some records, but it failed to do so. After the theatrical failure, the film is pumped up for its Ott release, and below is all you need to know!

The Hindi action drama marked the first collaboration between Salman Khan and director Ar Murugadoss. Since Murugadoss had delivered big successes like Ghajini and Holiday with Aamir Khan and Akshay Kumar, respectively, he was expected to give Salman the much-needed big hit. Unfortunately, the film’s content didn’t fare well with the moviegoers, resulting in a poor outcome.

Aamir Khan’s 10 Best Movies To Watch On Ott (Photo Credit – Prime Video)

Aamir Khan’s next film, Sitaare Zameen Par, is slated for a theatrical release on June 20th, 2025. As fans eagerly await the film’s release, we’ve rounded up a list of the top ten highest-rated Aamir Khan films, ranked by their IMDb ratings. To keep it practical, we’ve only included films currently available on Indian Ott platforms, making it easy for you to stream these acclaimed movies before Sitaare Zameen Par hits the big screen.

1. 3 Idiots Year of Release – 2009 Available On – Amazon Prime Video IMDb Rating – 8.4/10

Plot: The buddy comedy film starts with two college friends, Farhan (R. Madhavan) and Raju (Sharman Joshi), who are in search of their long-lost friend Rancho (Aamir Khan), a charismatic genius who disappeared after college. The film also focuses on the time the three friends spent on the campus...

As a producer, Madhu Mantena has an impeccable track record of creative and commercial success. Subhash K Jha lists his five picks for the best of the best Madhu Mantena.

1.Ghajini (2008):

The first 100-crore success of Indian cinema. Ghajini, directed by A R Murugadoss, is not for the squeamish. The violence is prolonged, sadistic, and often done with the elaborate abundance and eye-catching elan of a staged opera (Ravi Chandran’s camerawork glistens and bristles with optimum optical glory). And yet women in the audience seemed to love the film. Ghajini is at heart a love story of a cocooned tycoon who discovers love in a working-class environment. Aamir Khan’s expressions of bewilderment, curiosity, pleasure, and acceptance in Asin’s company remind you of a baby that’s just discovered mother-love.

2. Rakht Charitra (2010):

Marking the Hindi debut of Tamil superstar Suriya, this is another violent but stunning study of human avarice.

After Tiger 3’s underwhelming performance, we all were rooting for Salman Khan’s strong comeback with Sikandar. Unfortunately, it failed to meet high expectations and failed miserably at ticket windows. Right from the beginning, it couldn’t fulfill expectations, and eventually, with unfavorable word-of-mouth coming into play, the film turned out to be a losing affair. Now that it’s out of theatres, let’s find out how much it collected at the worldwide box office.

Reception of the film

The Bollywood action drama marked the first collaboration between Salman and director Ar Murugadoss. As Murugadoss presented Aamir Khan (Ghajini) and Akshay Kumar (Holiday) in one of their best avatars, everyone was excited to see his presentation for Salman. Sadly, he failed to deliver, and the film received negative reviews from critics.

Ar Murugadoss was expected to make a smashing comeback in the box office game with Salman Khan’s Sikandar. Unfortunately, he lost more than he won. Though the film scored a century at the Indian box office, the director and his film received extremely brutal and negative reviews from all over. After such a debacle, he has another opportunity to shine with Sivakarthikeyan’s Madharasi. Keep reading for a detailed report!

Several years back, Murugadoss had a much higher brand value, but now, he’s struggling to deliver a successful film. His Sikandar, marking his debut collaboration with Salman Khan, was expected to mint massive numbers but failed miserably. Still, Madharasi has a strong chance to give him much-needed success. More than that, it can achieve one significant milestone for the veteran filmmaker.

Aamir Khan is currently struggling at the Indian box office. Some of his last Bollywood biggies badly tanked, but hopefully, Sitaare Zameen Par will turn the tables. But do you know, Mr Perfectionist scored a hattrick that neither Salman Khan nor Shah Rukh Khan could? Scroll below for the interesting details!

Aamir Khan scored the first 100 crore net!

Salman Khan holds the most entries into the 100 crore club – 17. His film Hum Aapke Hain Kaun was the first Bollywood film to earn over 100 crores gross at the domestic box office. But Aamir Khan clocked the first 100 crore net in Hindi cinema with Ghajini in 2008.

Ar Murugadoss’ directorial Ghajini was the highest-grossing Bollywood film of 2008, with lifetime earnings of 118 crores. All other films that year, including Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and Singh Is Kinng, earned less than 100 crores.

Salman Khan arriving on Eid is a grand festival in itself for his massive fan base. The action thriller was expected to break all his previous records and surpass Tiger 3 (44.50 crores) to score the biggest opening of his lifetime.

It has been almost 8 years since Salman Khan delivered his last hit, Tiger Zinda Hai. High hopes are pinned on Sikandar, which is expected to end his dry spell at the box office. The official trailer was unveiled on Sunday and garnered massive praise. But eagle-eyed fans have shared theories on Reddit that could leave you mind-boggled. Scroll below for all the details!

Sikandar trailer was power-packed, ticking all the boxes, including emotions, entertainment, thrill and action. We witnessed Salman Khan’s sweet chemistry with his leading lady, Rashmika Mandanna. But Ar Murugadoss also gave glimpses of the supporting cast, including Sathyaraj, Sharman Joshi, Kajal Aggarwal, and Anjini Dhawan.

A section of Reddit users were disappointed that the Sikandar trailer was as lengthy as 3 minutes and 37 seconds. They felt it gave more hints than just teasing fans.

Ar Murugadoss At Hindi Box Office: With Salman Khan’s Sikandar, Arm Might Unleash A Big Milestone (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Sikandar is 8 days away from hitting the big screen, and fans are excited to watch Salman Khan in a hardcore mass entertainer after a long gap. While Salman has done such films in the past, this one is more interesting because it marks his debut collaboration with Ar Murugadoss. The man who gave us a different Aamir Khan in Ghajini is now back after so many years, and this time, he has Salman in his magnum opus. So, box office fireworks are guaranteed.

Murugadoss is mostly known for his work in Tamil cinema, where he has delivered biggies like Ghajini, Thuppakki, Kaththi, and Sarkar. Unfortunately, the director has been out of form lately, and it’s been a long time since he last tasted commercial success. As far as Hindi films are concerned,...

As Aamir Khan turns 60, a slew of his best known films are back in the movie theatres. Ghajini, in some subverted way, is indicative of our traumatic times. The brutal cocksureness with which the villain Ghajini (Pradeep Rawat) murders Kalpana (Asin) and pounds Sanjay Singhania’s (Aamir Khan) head to a memory mess is a telescopic view of what the sociopath can do to civil society. No one is safe from criminal attack. Not even the super-elite like Sanjay Singhania.

Ghajini, produced by Madhu Mantena and directed by A R Murugadoss, is not for the squeamish. The violence is prolonged, sadistic and often done with the elaborate abundance and eye-catching elan of a staged opera (Ravi Chandran’s camerawork glistens and bristles with optimum optical glory). And yet women in the audience seemed to love the film. Ghajini is, at heart, a love story of a cocooned tycoon who discovers love in a working-class environment.

Recently, a Holi song from the film was dropped featuring the superstar and the Pushpa 2 actress. After the song arrived, a crazy fan theory went viral which makes so much sense.

This fan theory has a strong connection to Aishwarya Rai. In the song, Salman Khan can be seen teary-eyed while Rashmika is seen in white clothes, and fans are convinced that she plays Salman’s dead love interest in the film just like Aishwarya Rai played Megha to Shah Rukh Khan’s Raj Aryan Malhotra in Mohabbatein!

Directed by Ar Murugadoss, the film is slated for release on Eid 2025. The excitement surrounding this project has been palpable, and the teaser is expected to provide a sneak peek into the thrilling action that awaits viewers.

Salman Khan’s Striking Appearance

Recently, the production team revealed a striking image of Salman Khan from Sikandar, igniting a wave of enthusiasm among fans. The poster showcases Khan in a rugged look, suggesting the film will feature intense action sequences. His fierce expression and well-defined physique have heightened anticipation, as fans eagerly await his portrayal of the character Sikandar.

Cast and Production Team

Sikandar features a stellar cast, including Rashmika Mandanna as the lead actress, alongside Sathyaraj, Kajal Aggarwal, and Prateik Babbar in supporting roles.

The ongoing interest in bringing a sequel to Ghajini into movie theatres took a new turn when at an event in Mumbai to promote Naga Chaitanya’s forthcoming film Thandel last week, the distinguished Ghajini producer Allu Arvind suggested to Aamir that they work together on a sequel to their 2008 blockbuster Ghajini.

Netizens and portals went wild on hearing what they thought was a public proclamation of the producer-actor’s plans.

But here is the thing: I spoke to the very gracious Allu Arvind about the Ghajini sequel, and he replied, “No Sir, I was kidding with him (Aamir).”

In 2008, producers Madhu Mantena and Allu Arvind joined hands to produce the biggest blockbuster of Aamir Khan’s career. Ghajini released on Christmas Day in 2008, Ghajini became Filmistan’s first film to earn over Rs 100 crores.

Back in 2005, Suriya’s Ghajini became a massive success in Tamil cinema. The film, inspired by Hollywood’s Memento, didn’t just dominate in Tamil Nadu but also found a huge audience across other Southern states. With its soaring popularity, a Hindi remake was inevitable, and in 2008, Ghajini was recreated in Bollywood with Aamir Khan stepping into Suriya’s role. The Hindi version was made under the banner of Geetha Arts.

At the trailer launch of their upcoming film Thandel, Allu Aravind of Geetha Arts shared an interesting story about his interaction with Aamir Khan during the making of Ghajini in 2008.

According to Allu Aravind, in 2008, no Indian film had ever hit the 100-crore mark at the box office. At the time, reaching that milestone was as monumental as a movie crossing 1000 crores today. During the filming of Ghajini, Aamir Khan...

Rashmika Mandanna is ready to light up the big screen yet again, this time with Salman Khan in the much-anticipated action-drama Sikandar. Directed by the ace filmmaker A.R. Murugadoss, known for delivering blockbusters like Ghajini and Thuppakki, this movie is all set to be an Eid 2025 treat for fans. Rashmika’s involvement in Sikandar has stirred a lot of buzz, and with good reason. Let’s dive into what makes her role in this film so exciting!

A Traditional heroine with a modern touch

In Sikandar, Rashmika is stepping into a more traditional heroine role—a refreshing change from her previous characters. While the filmmakers are keeping most of the details about her role under wraps, hints suggest that Rashmika‘s character will not just be a love interest but also play a key part in moving the story forward.

The movie has already teased grand festival sequences, including vibrant Eid and Holi celebrations.

Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan are two stalwarts of the industry who have aged well and keeping aside their rivalries now stand together as representatives of Indian Cinema. However, there was a time when the two were the most talked about rivals taking brutal digs at each other.

Ghajini Vs Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi!

In 2018, Christopher Nolan gave us a cool tidbit about Aamir Khan’s Ghajini when asked about its connection to his Memento. While Nolan hadn’t seen the film yet, he knew Ghajini was a massive hit. “I heard it was very successful; I heard people liked it. So, I will watch it at some point. I was aware of it and am very honored,” he said. Classic Nolan—polite, but you could tell he knew what was up.

Ghajini (2008) gave Memento a Bollywood spin—revenge, memory loss, and many twists. But Nolan wasn’t hating—he recognized how big it was, especially since it was the first Bollywood film to hit ₹100 crore. People were all about it.

But Nolan wasn’t just chatting about Ghajini. He also shared his love for Indian cinema. He mentioned recently watching Pather Panchali, the 1955 classic by Satyajit Ray,...

Box Office Comparison Between Suriya’s Ghajini Vs Aamir Khan’s Ghajini ( Photo Credit – YouTube )

Remakes aren’t new and have always been a trend. The only difference is that today, one can easily point out which film the remake is lifted from. Decades ago, when there was no access to Ott and other services, remakes were in full form. One such is Aamir Khan’s Ghajini, which was a riot at the Indian box office. Back then, very few people were aware that it was a remake of Suriya’s Ghajini. Let’s find out how both films fared theatrically in India.

Starting from the Og, Suriya’s Tamil action thriller was released on September 29, 2005. The film was inspired by Christopher Nolan’s Memento. It was directed by Ar Murugadoss, and upon its release, it opened to mostly positive reviews from critics. Even word-of-mouth among the ticket-buying audience was highly favorable.

Aamir Khan and Suriya are on the verge of reviving their iconic film Ghajini into a franchise with the much-anticipated sequel, Ghajini 2. Recent media reports indicate that both actors have expressed enthusiasm for the project, agreeing to work on the second film simultaneously in Hindi and Tamil. This strategic move aims to ensure that both versions of the film reach their respective audiences at the same time, avoiding the pitfalls of remakes.

Background of Ghajini

The original Ghajini was released in 2005, featuring Suriya alongside Asin and directed by A.R. Murugadoss. The film became a massive success and is often credited with elevating Suriya’s career. Aamir Khan starred in the Hindi remake in 2008, which also achieved blockbuster status, becoming Bollywood’s first film to gross over ₹100 crores. Given the cultural impact and commercial success of both versions, the announcement of a sequel has generated significant excitement among fans.
