Multi-starrer comic-caper Total Dhamaal off to great start

Multi-starrer Total Dhamaal, which was highly awaited by fans, finally hit screens on Friday, February 22. Though the movie garnered mixed response from critics, audiences showered loads of love on it which resulted in the opening day collection of ₹ 16.50 crores.

Keeping in mind the fact that Friday was a non-holiday day, the first-day collection of the film is pretty good, especially for a comedy film. The business is expected to soar high on Saturday and Sunday.


Total Dhamaal - non-holiday release - creates dhamaal on Day 1... Biz multiplies as the day progresses... Mass circuits rocking... Metros/plexes witness an upward trend... Biz should grow on Day 2 and contribute to a big total over the weekend... Fri ₹ 16.50 cr. India biz,” tweeted noted film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh.

Total Dhamaal, helmed by Indra Kumar, stars an ensemble cast including Madhuri Dixit, Ajay Devgn, Anil Kapoor, Arshad Warsi, Riteish Deshmukh, Javed Jaffrey, Sanjay Mishra, Boman Irani and others.

The film is the third instalment of the superhit film franchise Dhamaal (2007).

Amazon’s ‘God of War’ reset proves Hollywood can’t get video game adaptations right

Highlights

  • Dave Bautista is taking over as Kratos after Ryan Hurst's injury forced Amazon to recast the role.
  • The series is effectively starting again, with none of the footage from the original production being used.
  • The major reset puts fresh pressure on Amazon's attempt to adapt one of gaming's most recognisable franchises.

Hollywood's relationship with video game adaptations has changed considerably in recent years. Shows such as The Last of Us and Fallout have demonstrated that games can translate successfully to television when their characters and worlds are treated with care. Amazon's God of War, however, has already encountered a production setback that makes its journey to the screen considerably more complicated.

Dave Bautista has closed his deal to play Kratos in the Prime Video series after Ryan Hurst, who was originally cast in the role, suffered a serious on-set injury. Hurst reportedly tore his bicep while performing a stunt in June, around four months into filming. Amazon MGM Studios and Sony Pictures Television subsequently decided to recast the central role.
