Veere Di Wedding box office prediction: Kareena Kapoor-Sonam Kapoor starrer expected to open at Rs 4.5 crore

Veere Di Wedding box office collection
Kareena KapoorSonam Kapoor, Shikha Talsania and Swara Bhasker starrer Veere Di Wedding has hit screens today. Helmed by Khoobsurat director Shashanka Ghosh, Veere Di Wedding is an upbeat coming-of-age story revolving around the lives of four childhood friends Kalindi, Avni, Meera and Sakshi. Ten years later when these four best friends reunite, they don’t realize how much life has changed from what they expected.
While Kareena Kapoor is back to the silver screen post a short sabbatical of two years after Udta Punjab, Veere Di Wedding also marks Sonam’s first film post her marriage. Together with Swara and Shikha’s powerful performances, the film has created quite the buzz in the minds of movie-goers. But will this female ensemble generate enough traction at the theatres?
Film trade analyst Girish Johar expects the film to collect somewhere around Rs 4.5 crore on its opening day. Speaking about the film, he adds, “We have seen how Bollywood fans are now receptive to female-centric films like Raazi, Queen or Padmaavat for that matter. As long as good content is involved, the film is bound to do good. From the looks of it, the film is a fun, rib-tickling comedy and it will cater to an audience just looking to have a good time at the theatres.”
While female-centric films are finding more takers, Veere Di Wedding is expected to be a game-changer for the industry. Despite starring four female leads, Veere Di Wedding cast has been saying that the film is ‘not a chick flick’ or a film which takes forward the baton of feminism. Their point of contention is that Veere Di Wedding could be the story of any four friends who just happen to be girls here.
Along with Veere Di Wedding, Harshvardhan Kapoor’s Bhavesh Joshi Superhero also hits the theatres on June 1. But being a vigilante drama, it serves a very different audience.

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...
