Allu Arjun, Fahadh Faasil's Pushpa: The Rise continues to set cash registers ringing; check details here

Allu Arjun’s Pushpa: The Rise continues its performance at the box office. The Hindi version of the film is inching its way towards the Rs 50 crore mark, as per the latest figures by trade analyst Taran Adarsh.

The film earned Rs 2.75 crore on 27 December, followed by Rs 2.50 crore and 2.40 crore on 28 and 29 December, respectively. It collected Rs 2.24 crore on 30 December, as per the updated figures.

According to Adarsh, the film has earned Rs 26.89 crore in its first week and Rs 20.20 crore in its second week to take its box office collections to Rs 47.09 crore. The Hindi version of Pushpa will also increase its screen count in its third week, taking it to 1,600 screens. The movie had released in 1,401 screens on 17 December.

Pushpa: The Rise has earned over Rs 230 crore to date, taking into account all language versions of the film. Pushpa's dream run at the box office has brought joy to cinema-goers and theatre owners. The Allu Arjun starrer has performed well despite stiff competition from Marvel’s latest outing Spider-Man: No Way Home and Kabir’s Khan sports drama 83. The film has performed exceptionally well, taking into account factors such as 50 percent occupancy in theatres and the spread of the Omicron variant.

The postponement of Shahid Kapoor’s Jersey and the less than expected performance of 83 at the box office might give the period drama film a further boost.

The Sukumar directorial venture, which also stars Fahadh Faasil, Dhananjay, Sunil, Anasuya Bharadwaj, and Rashmika Mandanna in pivotal roles, was released in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam earlier this month. Pushpa: The Rise sees Allu Arjun play the titular character, who gets involved in smuggling red sandalwood. The makers have already announced the sequel, Pushpa: The Rule, and confirmed that it will hit cinemas next December.

Watch The Sound with Mark Ronson Apple TV+ explores the curious link between music and technology

In The Salmon of Doubt , Douglas Adams writes: “I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies: 1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary, and is just a natural part of the way the world works. 2. Anything that's invented between when you’re 15 and 35 is new and exciting and revolutionary, and you can probably get a career in it. 3. Anything invented after you're 35 is against the natural order of things.” Cut to the world of music. As much as technology has been a driving force in the industry, the advent of any innovation has often been received with skepticism before it goes on to become the norm. Harnessing that interplay between the creative process of making music and the technological enhancement given to said music, is acclaimed DJ and producer Mark Ronson. In his just-released six-part mini-docuseries Watch the Sound with Mark Ronson , he astutely defines how different the process of creating a great

Studying women presidents and prime ministers on screen, from Meryl Streep in Don't Look Up to Dimple Kapadia in A Thursday

In 2016, when I heard Hillary Clinton had lost the US Presidential race to Donald Trump, I took it as a confirmation that this is how much the US hated its women. And I felt temporarily gratified to live in a country which elected a woman as its third prime minister. This was before I remembered Indira Gandhi was the only woman prime minister we have had, and she was an outlier. Her strong and uncompromising leadership style skews meaningful analysis of gender representation in governance. Anyway, for all the breaking of paths and glass ceilings, trailblazers like Gandhi and Iron Lady Margaret Thatcher commonly belong to conservative or traditional parties. Left to the simultaneously imaginative and mimetic art of comedy, the first woman US president looks like Meryl Streep’s Janine Orlean in Don’t Look Up and Julia Louis Dreyfus’ Selina Meyer in the HBO show Veep . They are both are anti-feminists and women of power. Yet they could not be more different in how they reflect the r

Netflix's Lupin acknowledges dangers of fantasies of omnipotence, introducing viewers to a socially conscious gentleman thief

By Emma Bielecki Netflix’s immensely successful new French-language show Lupin has introduced a new generation of anglophone viewers to one of the most popular characters in French popular fiction, Arsène Lupin, gentleman thief. Lupin was created in 1905 by the writer Maurice Leblanc at the behest of publisher Pierre Lafitte, who had recently launched a general interest magazine, Je Sais Tout . Lafitte wanted a serial that would guarantee a loyal readership for his magazine, as the Sherlock Holmes stories had for the Strand Magazine. Drawing inspiration from Conan Doyle and EW Hornung’s Raffles stories, Leblanc obliged by creating a flamboyant and ultimately always benign trickster figure. Cat burglar, con artist, master of disguise, Lupin is also a brilliant detective and righter of wrongs. His appeal has proved enduring: in addition to the original 20 volumes of stories authored by Leblanc, there have been countless plays, radio shows, TV series and films, from Italian pornos
