Kuberaa Box Office Collections: Dhanush starrer tops 50cr worldwide with a rare JUMP in bizz on day 2
Kuberaa scored a rare second-day growth for a South Indian film yesterday, grossing Rs. 17.75 crore approx on Saturday. With this, the two-day total for the Dhanush starrer stands at Rs. 34.75 crore at the Indian box office. Additionally, the film has grossed USD 2.20 million (Rs. 19 crore) approx overseas, for a worldwide gross of Rs. 53.75 crore. The film is on track to gross close to Rs. 80 crore globally during its three-day weekend.
The Telugu version is leading from the front, with not only better collections but also a better trend. In Telugu states, the film grossed Rs. 11 crore on Saturday, up from Rs. 10 crore on Friday, with both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana posting gains, the latter witnessing an almost 20 per cent surge. It is extremely rare for films to see growth in the Telugu states on the second day, especially coming off a double-digit opening day, making it all the more impressive.
Tamil Nadu is relatively underperforming, with both collections being low and the trend remaining flat from the first day. While there was hope for a better Saturday considering the pick in Friday night shows, it didn't pan out, which now casts doubt on its ability to have any meaningful run in the state. Still, even here, the numbers are better than they looked just a few days ago.
Kuberaa has high costs involved, north of Rs. 125 crore. The film managed to make good recoveries from the non-theatrical rights, which had eased immediate pressure on theatrical. Now, with the box office also posting strong numbers, the film is set to be a HIT or better. This has been a terrible year for the Telugu box office, with a drought of releases since the two weeks of the Sankranti period in January. There were a couple of releases that did well at the medium level, but overall, the situation is grim. Kuberaa shall provide some relief, but a lot more is needed.
The Box Office Collections of Kuberaa are as follows:

Desi Boyz take over Oxford as Bollywood beats light up historic halls in viral dance video
Oxford University witnessed an unexpected cultural crossover as alumnus Druv Punjabi and his crew filmed a lively Bollywood dance video to Desi Boyz across its iconic campus. From Lady Margaret Hall to stone pathways, the reel blends Indian energy with British legacy, going viral on Instagram and winning hearts for its joyful celebration of desi identity in elite spaces. (Screenshots: Instagram/ druvphk) It's not every day that the ancient, ivy-covered walls of Oxford University groove to a Bollywood beat. But on June 21, 2025, that's exactly what happened — virtually, at least — when alumnus Druv Punjabi and his crew unleashed a vibrant, high-energy dance video shot across some of Oxford's most iconic spots. The song of choice? None other than the foot-tapping anthem Desi Boyz. Posted on Instagram via @druvphk, the video features a group of young men in modern outfits executing flawless Bollywood choreography in locations like Lady Margaret Hall, gardens, stone corridors, and open courtyards — the kind of places more accustomed to academic robes than dance rehearsals. In a perfect clash of cultures, the video showcases what happens when the traditions of one of the world's oldest universities meet the charisma and colour of Indian cinema. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Druv Punjabi (@druvphk) The video caption itself set the tone: 'Check out this incredible Bollywood dance video filmed at Lady Margaret Hall and other iconic Oxford spots – created by alumnus Druv Punjabi and crew 🕺'. Since its posting, it has racked up over 30,000 views and hundreds of heartwarming reactions celebrating the cultural fusion. Netizens have been quick to cheer on the crew. One user wrote, 'God bless you Desi Boys — lovely to see Indian culture coming through at the University of Oxford ❤️'. Another gushed, 'Oxford gets a taste of Bollywood 🔥', while a third joked, 'Aah Bollywood making it to Oxford halls, seriously vocal for local working guys 😂'. The enthusiasm only amplified with comments like 'The halls of Oxford University echoing with Bollywood mashups 🙌❤️'. What makes the video special isn't just the choreography or the catchy track — it's the powerful symbolism behind the spectacle. Oxford, often seen as a bastion of Western academia, becomes a stage for South Asian pride and joyful cultural expression. In an era where cultural expression is often boxed into binaries of tradition and modernity, this video bursts through the frame with a colourful 'why not both?' The seamless blend of Oxford's regal surroundings with Bollywood's unmistakable energy creates a spectacle that's as moving as it is the 30,000 views and countless shares are impressive, what Druv Punjabi and his crew have pulled off is much more than a trending reel. It's a message: that identity is something to be danced with, celebrated, and fearlessly shared — even against the stone pillars of a 900-year-old institution.
