Six interesting box office clashes we will witness this year

Box office clashes are nothing new in Bollywood. Many big films release on the same day and most of the times, both the movies get a good response at the box office. However, sometimes one movie does well and the other one becomes a box office dud. This year too we will get to see many movies competing at the box office. So, here’s the list of six interesting box office battles that we will get to see in the coming months…

Kabir Singh vs Mental Hai Kya (21st June 2019)


On one side there’s Shahid Kapoor with his movie Kabir Singh and on the other side, there’s Kangana Ranaut and Rajkummar Rao with their movie Mental Hai Kya. Kabir Singh is a masala entertainer and Mental Hai Kya more looks like a multiplex film. It will be interesting to see if Kabir Singh will win the box office race or the Mentals will take the cake.

Batla House vs Mission Mangal (15th August 2019)

Last year on Independence Day, Akshay Kumar’s Gold and John Abraham’s Satyamev Jayate clashed at the box office. Both the movies did quite well, but it was Akki’s film that won the battle. Now, this year too Akshay Kumar and John Abraham are all set to clash at BO with their respective movies Mission Mangal and Batla House. Let’s wait and watch whose mission will be accomplished at the box office.

Good News vs Anurag Basu’s next (6th September 2019)

Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor Khan are coming together on the big screen after a long gap in Karan Johar’s production venture Good News. On the other hand, there’s Anurag Basu’s next directorial which stars Abhishek Bachchan, Rajkummar Rao, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Aditya Roy Kapur, and Sanya Malhotra. We wonder which movie will get good news at the box office.

Marjaavan vs Hrithik-Tiger’s next (2nd October 2019)

Now, this is a very interesting clash. While on one side there is Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff in YRF’s next, competing with them is Sidharth Malhotra with his movie Marjaavan. Of course, Hrithik and Tiger have a bigger fan following than Sidharth. So, let’s see if Sidharth will be able to beat Hrithik and Tiger at the box office.

Housefull 4 vs Saand Ki Aankh (25th October 2019)

Looks like this year Akshay Kumar has a lot of competition at the box office. Mission Mangal clashes with Batla House and Good News clashes with Anurag Basu’s next. On Diwali, this year releases Akshay Kumar starrer Housefull 4 and just a few days ago, the makers of Taapsee Pannu and Bhumi Pednekar starrer Saand Ki Aankh announced that they too will release their movie on Diwali. Will women power beat superstardom at BO?

The year will end with a bang as Ranbir Kapoor’s Brahmastra and Salman Khan’s Dabangg 3 will compete at the box office during Christmas weekend. While there have been reports that the Ranbir starrer might get postponed, we are yet to get a confirmation on it. So, for now, it’s Chubul vs Shiva.

​Scarlett Johansson slams SNL’s 'gross' vagina joke: ‘It was intense. I felt like I’d pass out!'

Scarlett Johansson has finally addressed the jaw-dropping joke about her that aired during Saturday Night Live’s holiday episode in December. Her husband, Colin Jost, was made to deliver the punchline live on air, and Johansson, watching from backstage, was left stunned. In a recent interview with InStyle, she described the moment as “so gross” and admitted she couldn’t believe the show went that far.

The joke was part of the show’s annual “Weekend Update” tradition, where Jost and his co-host Michael Che write outrageous jokes for each other to read without any prior warning. This time, Che handed Jost a line that compared Johansson to a Costco roast beef sandwich in a joke about their sex life. When Jost read it aloud, the audience gasped. Meanwhile, cameras backstage caught Johansson’s reaction mouth open, clearly shocked.

Amitabh Bachchan buys prime land near Ram Mandir in Ayodhya for father’s memorial

Amitabh Bachchan has purchased a second plot of land in Ayodhya, this time a large 54,454 square foot piece, located roughly 10 kilometres from the newly consecrated Ram Mandir. The land was bought through the Harivansh Rai Bachchan Trust, an organisation set up by the actor in 2013 to honour his late father, the renowned poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan.

This latest purchase adds to Bachchan’s earlier investment in Ayodhya. In January 2024, he bought land in a premium township called Haveli Avadh for ₹4.54 crore. Reports suggest that property was meant for residential use. Now, sources indicate the newly acquired land could be developed into a memorial dedicated to his father’s life and literary legacy.

Stan Lee’s tragic final years: Shocking new documentary exposes elder abuse and exploitation

Stan Lee spent his life bringing superheroes to the world—Spider-Man, the X-Men, Iron Man, and so many more. But behind the joyful cameos and conventions, his last years were marked by serious exploitation. A new documentary, Stan Lee: The Final Chapter, talks about the dark, uncomfortable truth about what really happened.

The film is being put together by Jon Bolerjack, who worked closely with Lee during his final four years. Bolerjack wasn’t just an assistant; he was a witness to what many believe was the mishandling and manipulation of an ageing legend. According to Bolerjack, Lee was constantly pushed to sign memorabilia and make public appearances, despite his poor health. In video clips already shared, Lee appears exhausted while being shuffled between events.
