Trade Watchlist Portfolio Message Set Alert live bse live nse live Volume Todays L/H More × The subdued performance of Hindi films in the last few months is raising questions on what is holding back Bollywood.

'Jurassic World: Dominion' - the third film in the 'Jurassic World' trilogy - released in theatres on June 10, 2022. Another Hollywood release has opened really well in India: Jurassic World: Dominion made Rs 8 crore from ticket sales on Day 1, and with the paid preview shows from Thursday added to its kitty, the total stands at Rs 11.75 crore.

The film was in a different league altogether but then Top Gun: Maverick was a disappointment - after its partial release of Thursday which saw Rs 1.94 crore coming in, the Friday full release brought in just Rs 2.46 crore. … [Read more...] about Box office: ‘Jurassic World: Dominion’ and ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2’ bring cheer to theatre owners

The feeling is both of the moment and timeless. To a remarkable extent, this place, the Ace Hotel, is the brainchild of a single man, a lean, mop-haired native of the Pacific Northwest named Alexander Calderwood. A kind of hipster polymath, he was able to look around the corners of culture and see what was coming years, if not decades, before everyone else. In his 20-year career, Calderwood cofounded a barbershop, a … [Read more...] about Behind Ace Hotel Founder Alex Calderwood’s Creative Life And Untimely Death
