Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety is unstoppable at the box office

Toplined by Kartik Aaryan, Sunny Singh and Nushrat Bharucha, romcom Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety has taken the box office by storm, going far beyond the expectations of trade pundits. The film, which hit the silver screen on 23rd February 2018, has pulled in an impressive INR 26.57 crore at Indian box office within three days of its release.

Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety was always expected to perform well simply because it was coming from the stable of filmmaker Luv Ranjan who has attained mastery over presenting complexities of modern relationships on the big screen in the simplest form. His previous outings, Pyaar Ka Punchnama and Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2, are a screaming example of that. But the way the film has been performing at the ticket window from the day one of its release is something no one had expected.


Made on a moderate budget of INR 30 crore, the film netted INR 6.42 crore on its opening day. Bettering its collection on Day 2, the movie went on to add another INR 9.34 crore to its kitty. It showed a huge jump on Sunday, which was its third day at the cash counter, and pocketed a hefty amount of INR 10.82 crore, taking its cumulative collection to a humongous INR 26.57 crore.

With such amazing figures, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety has become the third highest first weekend grosser of 2018. It is behind the Deepika Padukone starrer, Padmaavat, which minted INR 114 crore over the first weekend, and Akshay Kumar’s Pad Man which collected INR 40.05 crore within three days.

The movie will recover its production cost after the collection made on Monday is added to the tally. It is expected to earn double than it total production and P&A cost before finishing its run at the cash counter.

Diddy sues NBCUniversal for $100M over explosive documentary allegations

Sean "Diddy" Combs has taken legal action against NBCUniversal, its streaming platform Peacock, and production company Ample Entertainment, seeking $100 million in damages over the documentary Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy. The lawsuit, filed in a New York court, claims the documentary falsely portrays him as a criminal, making baseless accusations about his involvement in sex trafficking, abuse, and even murder.

The lawsuit alleges that the documentary advances wild conspiracy theories, linking Combs to the deaths of his former partner Kim Porter, rapper Christopher "The Notorious B.I.G." Wallace, and others. According to Combs' legal team, the film deliberately presents him as a "monster" and compares him to figures like Jeffrey Epstein, despite a lack of credible evidence.

Kim Kardashian’s wedding dress moment goes viral: Hollywood’s new leading lady?

Kim Kardashian is back in a wedding dress, but this time, it’s strictly for the cameras. The 44-year-old reality star and entrepreneur was recently spotted filming a wedding sequence for All’s Fair, an upcoming legal drama from acclaimed producer Ryan Murphy.

Dressed in a strappy white gown and flowing veil, Kim was seen holding hands with co-star Matthew Noszka on a Malibu beach. The scene even included a dramatic kiss, with Noszka all suited up in pastel blue dipping her for the moment. While the images set social media abuzz, this isn’t the start of a new marriage for Kim—it’s just part of her latest acting role.



This marks Kim’s second collaboration with Murphy after her role in American Horror Story: Delicate. Over the years, she has taken on smaller acting roles, including film cameos and voice work. However, All’s Fair signals a bigger step into scripted television, featuring an all-star cast that includes Naomi Watts, Glenn Close, and Sarah Paulson. The series reportedly centres on an all-female team of divorce lawyers in Los Angeles, with Kim not only acting but also serving as an executive producer alongside her mother, Kris Jenner.
