Kesari 2 Box Office Early Estimates Day 30: Akshay Kumar, Ananya Panday's film aims for Rs 60 lakh; relies on Saturday holiday
Kesari 2 Box Office Early Estimates Day 30: Kesari Chapter 2: The Untold Story of Jallianwala Bagh has completed a month of its release at the box office. Starring Akshay Kumar, the legal drama takes us on the journey of C. Sankaran Nair, who fought a battle with the Crown while uncovering the truths about the 1919 genocide incident. Kesari 2 is eyeing Rs 60 lakh today.
Kesari Chapter 2 is co-produced by Dharma Productions, Cape of Good Films, and Leo Media Collective. The courtroom drama recently entered its fifth weekend. As per early estimates, on Day 30, the Akshay Kumar-led movie will have a jump of Rs 20 lakh from what it earned on the 29th day of its release. It is likely to earn in the range of Rs 60 lakh while relying on the Saturday holiday.
Based on the book titled The Case That Shook the Empire, Kesari 2 fetched a total collection of Rs 87.6 crore till the fifth Friday. It will remain under the Rs 90 crore mark while finishing its current weekend tomorrow.
Ideally, the business of Kesari 2 would be growing by double; however, as Mission: Impossible—The Final Reckoning hit the screens on Saturday, the courtroom drama has failed to receive the desired growth.
Apart from Mission: Impossible 8, Kesari Chapter 2 is running parallel to Raid 2, the sequel to Raid. The legal drama marks the spiritual sequel to Kesari (2019). It is yet to be seen how Akshay Kumar's new movie sustains amid the competition with MI 8 and Raid 2.
After Kesari Chapter 2, Akshay Kumar is pinning high hopes on Housefull 5, which will hit the screens on June 6, 2025.

Watch: This Grilled Corn Ice Cream From South Korea's Jeju Island Has The Internet Drooling
Corn and ice cream — both are flavourful and delicious when consumed separately. But what if they are served as one? Need not be surprised, as in the world of bizarre culinary combos, nothing is impossible. Recently, a digital creator, @coffeegomi, treated foodies to a similar preparation: Grilled corn ice cream. Found at the ice cream parlour Jeomjeom in Jeju Island, South Korea, this one-of-a-kind dessert is sweet, nutty and creamy, all in one. It is priced at 7,500 won (approximately Rs 470). This Jeju Island speciality is prepared by torch-roasting one half of a corn cob. Next, it is topped with rich and luscious swirly vanilla ice cream. And voila! Your grilled corn ice cream is ready. Dig into the creamy ice cream with a spoon at first and take a scrumptious bite of the kernels after. As per the creator, this unique dessert is perfect for those who love Chodang corn, a type of Korean sweet corn known for its exceptional sweetness and crunchy texture. 'You get the sweet aroma, the nutty corn flavour, and the luxurious richness of the cream—all combined in one treat,' shared the creator in the caption. Watch the full video below: View this post on Instagram A post shared by 가보자곰 (@coffeegomi) Foodies queued up in the comments section, unable to resist. 'I love Chodang corn, and it definitely looks delicious,' gushed one user. 'Can't believe it is a corn and a cream combo,' exclaimed another. 'This is the first place that comes to mind when you make corn ice cream,' shared an individual. 'The visual of the super sweet corn is insane,' wrote one person, presumably drooling at the thought of relishing this deliciously sweet and savoury dessert. 'This is crazy,' read a remark. Here's what this user had to say: 'Next time I go to Jeju, I will carry this around (with me),' 'Ice cream on top of corn? What a unique combination!! I really want to try it,' confessed a sweet tooth.

Made for Rs 41 crore, this film was rejected by Hrithik Roshan, Ranveer Singh, Aamir Khan, became a hit, earned Rs.. won 55 awards, lead actor is..
In 2013, a film hit theatres with the force of a storm — a story that didn't just touch hearts but rewrote box office history and award lists. It went on to win 55 awards, including two National Awards and a Filmfare Best Actor trophy. But what if we told you that this cinematic triumph was rejected by not one but three of Bollywood's top heroes? We're talking about Bhaag Milkha Bhaag , the sports biopic that immortalised India's 'Flying Sikh' — Milkha Singh — on the big screen. Directed by Rakesh Omprakash Mehra, the film eventually starred Farhan Akhtar in the lead, but the road to finding that perfect Milkha was full of U-turns. The rejected bids Rakesh Omprakash Mehra initially approached three leading actors: Hrithik Roshan, Aamir Khan, and Ranveer Singh. Each passed: Hrithik Roshan, praised for intensity, was unavailable—'committed to Krrish,' Mehra recalls in his memoir The Stranger in the Mirror. Aamir Khan, conflicted after Rang De Basanti, bluntly said, 'this is not for me.' Ranveer Singh read the script, impressed with the character, but ultimately declined. Mehra admits, 'I never understood why.' Enter the perfect pick After those three rejections, Farhan Akhtar stepped in. Within just 15 minutes of hearing the concept, he was all in. His portrayal as the legendary runner Milkha Singh, supported by Divya Dutta, Pawan Malhotra, Yograj Singh, Prakash Raj—and a cameo by Sonam Kapoor—transformed the film completely. From Rs 30 cr budget to global hit Despite its modest Rs 30 crore budget, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag surpassed box-office expectations, earning Rs 108 crore net in India and Rs 168 crore globally, quintupling its investment. Awards galore Besides its massive box office success, the film swept awards — 55 in total — and solidified Farhan's place in Bollywood not just as an actor but a performer with serious depth. From rejections to record-breaker, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag wasn't just a movie — it was a race to the finish line that no one saw coming.

Meet actor who did C-grade films, worked with Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, has net worth of Rs...
Bollywood has been a place where actors and actresses need to be on their toes always. From grabbing the right opportunity to fitting into a role perfectly like a jigsaw puzzle, one needs to be prepared. Today, we are going to discuss an actor who, with his grit and determination, made his way into the Bollywood industry. There was a time when he worked in C-grade films, but today, he is counted among the most talented actors in the industry. This person was initially underestimated a lot, but then he changed the tide and became a top actor in the industry. People overlooked him for his dark complexion and height, but he proved everyone wrong. From movies to series, this actor has his 'dabdaba' among the audience. We are talking about none other than Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Born in Budhana, Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh, Nawazuddin completed his studies from Gurukul Kangri University, Haridwar. To earn his bread and butter, he went to Vadodara and became a chemist. However, Nawaz knew that his passion lay in acting. Hence, he came to Delhi and learned the nuances of acting by enrolling in the National School of Drama (NSD), and then came to Mumbai in search of work. Nawazuddin Siddiqui kept doing small roles for years. During this time, he also did C-grade films. On Kapil Sharma's show, the actor had said, 'Nobody even knows about half of the films. There were many C-grade films, they were being made at that time, so I used to work in them too.' Nawazuddin Siddiqui's 'big break' in Bollywood came when he featured in Anurag Kashyap's Gangs of Wasseypur – Part 2 in 2012. His portrayal of Faizal Khan received widespread praise. Since then, he never looked back. Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who started his career in Bollywood with a small role in Aamir Khan's film Sarfarosh, has appeared in many great films including Gangs of Wasseypur, Badlapur, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Kahaani and Raees. Today, he leads a luxurious life and lives in a home worth Rs 12 crore. Talking about the actor's net worth, according to media reports, his total assets are Rs 160 crore.
