Dhurandhar

Ranveer Singh-starrer Dhurandhar continues its strong theatrical run, pushing closer to the Rs 600 crore mark at the domestic box office. On its 17th day, the film entered the all-time top 10 Indian films list, overtaking several major blockbusters released in recent years.

According to figures reported by media tracking platforms, Dhurandhar earned around Rs 38.50 crore on Sunday, taking its total domestic net collection to approximately Rs 555.75 crore.

Dhurandhar overtakes Animal, Pathaan and Gadar 2

With its latest earnings, Dhurandhar has surpassed Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal, which had collected Rs 553 crore during its lifetime run in India. The film has now secured the tenth position among the highest-grossing Indian films domestically.

The Ranveer Singh-led project has also gone past the lifetime collections of Sunny Deol’s Gadar 2 (Rs 525 crore) and Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan (Rs 543 crore). Notably, Dhurandhar achieved these milestones without relying on dubbed versions, unlike several films ahead of it on the list.

Strong opening and sustained momentum

Released in cinemas on December 5, Dhurandhar opened on an impressive note, collecting Rs 103 crore in its first weekend. The film earned Rs 28 crore on Friday, followed by Rs 32 crore on Saturday and Rs 43 crore on Sunday.

The momentum continued during the weekdays, with collections of Rs 23.25 crore on Monday and Rs 27 crore on Tuesday. With similar earnings on Wednesday and Thursday, the film closed its first week at Rs 207.25 crore.

Veteran Malayalam actor and filmmaker Sreenivasan passes away at 69

Veteran Malayalam actor, screenwriter and director Sreenivasan died at 69 in Kochi, drawing tributes from across Kerala’s film and political circles.

Srinivasan

Veteran Malayalam cinema actor, screenwriter and director Sreenivasan died on Saturday morning at the age of 69, marking the end of an era in the state’s film industry. He breathed his last at a government hospital in Tripunithura near Kochi after developing breathing difficulties while travelling for dialysis.

Sreenivasan had been dealing with prolonged health issues and had undergone heart surgery in 2022. According to hospital authorities, he passed away around 8.30 am. His body was later shifted to his residence, and it will be kept at Ernakulam Town Hall for public homage before the last rites are held at his home.

A life rooted in cinema and social satire

Born on April 6, 1956, at Pattiam in Kannur district, Sreenivasan studied economics before moving to Chennai to pursue film studies. He made his acting debut in 1976 and gradually emerged as one of the most influential creative voices in Malayalam cinema.

Over the decades, he became widely known not just for his performances but also for his sharp and socially aware screenplays. His writing career took off in the 1980s and included several collaborations with leading filmmakers of the time. Many of his works, especially political and social satires, continue to be referenced in public discourse.

Sreenivasan made his directorial debut in 1989 with a film that later earned a Kerala State Film Award and came to be regarded as a classic. He also directed a National Film Award-winning film in the late 1990s, in which he played the lead role. His political satire released in the early 1990s received a state award for best story and remains one of the most discussed films in Malayalam cinema.

Tributes pour in from across Kerala

Several political leaders and film personalities expressed deep grief over his passing. Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan described the death as an irreparable loss to Malayalam cinema, calling Sreenivasan a versatile talent who excelled in every sphere of filmmaking. He said the filmmaker had a rare ability to portray the life of the common man through humour and satire, even while challenging long-standing conventions.

Opposition leader V D Satheesan termed Sreenivasan a multifaceted genius who brought powerful social messages to the screen with extraordinary simplicity. CPI(M) state secretary M V Govindan said Sreenivasan would remain an eternal inspiration for his ability to present serious themes in an engaging manner rooted in everyday life.

Filmmaker Sathyan Anthikkad, a long-time collaborator and friend, recalled that despite his declining health, Sreenivasan remained mentally sharp and deeply reflective until the end.

Family and personal life

After settling in Kochi, Sreenivasan was also known for practising organic farming near his residence. He is survived by his wife Vimala and their two sons, Vineeth Sreenivasan and Dhyan Sreenivasan, both of whom are active in the Malayalam film industry.

With his passing, Malayalam cinema loses a voice that consistently blended humour, realism and social commentary, leaving behind characters and dialogues that continue to resonate with audiences.
