• Tough days ahead:

The upcoming second weekend will be crucial for both Animal and Sam Bahadur to secure a respectable lifetime total, considering they have a 20-day window before the release of two major films – Shah Rukh Khan's comedy-drama Dunki and Prabhas's action-packed Salaar.

Centered on the life of India's first Field Marshal, Sam Manekshaw, this film marked Vicky Kaushal's third theatrical release of the year, following the success of Zara Hatke Zara Bachke and the underperforming The Great Indian Family. Alongside Kaushal, the movie also features Sanya Malhotra and Fatima Sana Shaikh.
