Parmanu box office prediction: John Abraham starrer expected to open at Rs 4 crore

john abraham film parmanu box office
After a long ordeal in the post-production stage, the patriotic drama Parmanu is hitting the theatres on May 25. Starring John Abraham and Diana Penty in the lead roles, Parmanu is based on the nuclear bomb test explosions conducted by the Indian Army at Pokhran in 1998.
While John Abraham plays the lead member of the Pokhran nuclear test team, the film tries to tell the audience about the failures and the hidden facts that no one paid attention to and brings out the unsung heroes of the experiment that put India on the map as global nuclear superpower. But will the film be able to charm enough audiences to the theatres?
Film and trade analyst Girish Johar predicts the opening collection of Parmanu to land up somewhere near Rs 4 crores. He also adds, “Despite the controversy that led up to its release, Parmanu has been able to generate a lot of positive buzz with its trailers and promotional interviews. While it may open to a decent Rs 4 crore, its figures could go up drastically if it is supported by a strong word-of-mouth promotion and receives good reviews.”

But considering the recent wave of successful Hollywood films at the Indian box office, it is getting all the more difficult for Bollywood releases to create their own space. While previous releases like Avengers: Infinity War and Deadpool 2 are already having a magical run at the box office, May 25 will also see the release of Solo: A Star Wars Story. Though the hype around the film may not be as massive, Star Wars also has its fair share of loyal followers.
In Bollywood, Alia Bhatt’s Raazi is going strong at the box office but even 102 Not Out has managed to garner its decent share of viewers. Will John Abraham’s Parmanu be able to provide the kind of extraordinary content that pulls viewers to the theatres? We will only find out on May 25.

Emma Thompson: I was always paid less than my male counterparts

Emma Thompson says she was always paid less than her male colleagues. The 59-year-old actor-writer said women are still treated as “second-class citizens”. She also advocated to publish salaries to reveal the gender pay gap. “I was always paid less than my male counterparts. Publishing figures is the first step. “It’s a forensic way of looking at how women are second-class citizens, and I appreciate that because it’s not emotional. This is the fact: this person does the same work for less money, and that’s just wrong,” Thompson told Good Housekeeping magazine.

Bobby Deol was the ‘it boy’ of the 90s but will his comeback still hold that charm?

With his curly hair, bobbling head and round sunglasses, we still think of “ Duniya Haseeno Ka Mela ” when we think of Bobby Deol. After a string of popular films like Gupt and Soldier among others, Bobby made quite a name for himself in the 90s. Bobby was never known for his acting chops. What he was known for was his swag, even though the word did not exist back in the day. His undeniable charisma and those long wavy hair made him stand out in the crowd. The 90s were a much simpler time. Words like nepotism weren’t thrown around before a star kid’s debut and hence, Bobby Deol was proudly known as  Dharmendra ’s younger son. His older brother  Sunny Deol  was already the  dhai -kilo-ka-haath man and here was Bobby, trying to make googly eyes at the ladies. It was expected that with Bobby entering the world of movies, this family would turn into a crackling team. Gupt, one of the rare Hindi films that really holds your attention till the end, was quite a hit...
