Akshay Kumar Is Ready To Explode The Box Office In 2024 With As Many As 9 Films In A Single Year? ( Photo Credit – Instagram )
Akshay Kumar is ready to redeem his lost glory at the box office in the year 2024, and while he has been struggling for the last two years, the actor has once upon a time ruled the box office and brought back the phenomenon of middle-budget films working well and bringing a successful year at the box office. This was at a time when none of the Khans and Kapoors were able to deliver and were struggling with numbers.
Akshay’s number game has been strong, with as many as 4 – 5 releases in a single year. However, the post-pandemic world changed a lot of things for actors. In 2022, the superstar had five releases – four theatrical and an Ott release- and none of them churned out numbers at the box office.

Celebrating messiahs from the underbelly of any society is nothing new. Nevertheless, there has been a serious dearth of noir films in the history of Bangla cinema. Every time the city is seen in cinema, it remains visually stunning. Yet, surprisingly, the underdogs are carefully swept under the carpet. Under the project of the beautification of the city, there has been no place for slums, everyday violence, brothels and other kinds of chotoloks (downtrodden). Yet, without them, the State and the bhodrolok community, who write the history of any decade from above, would be a sham. Bratya Basu's “Hubba” (Don/ 2024/133mns) depicts the life and rise of Hubba Shyamal aka Bimal (his screen name) and the volatile nexus of politics within the underworld. In other words, it is a biopic on the notorious gangster Hubba Shyamal in the 1990s Hooghly, played by popular Bangladeshi actor Mosharraf Karim.

A project nurtured over 12 long years and conceptualized by one of Bollywood’s premiere directors at the forefront of historical epics, which oftentimes are interwoven with enchanting Indian mythos of years past. Inspired by the Marathi novel ‘Rau’ by the late Nagnath S. Inamdar, Sanjay Bhansali brings to life this visually arresting story of a 18th century Peshwa (akin to a modern-day prime minister) Bajirao’s love triangle with a Muslim maiden Mastani and his wife Kashibai. ‘A will as immovable as the Himalayas’ leads the charge as this tragic saga unfolds, an allegory of intimacy, lust and passion set against the bubbling racial instability of the Hindu Maratha Empire.
Emperor Chhatrapati Shahu (Mahesh Manjrekar) is looking for the next Peshwa of the Maratha Empire. Before he could appoint one of his courtiers as the next leader, a defiant Bajirao Ballal (Ranveer Singh) barges into the court and challenges the man for the prestigious role.

Antim: The Final Truth
Starring Salman Khan, Aayush Sharma Introducing Mahima Makwana
Directed by Mahesh Manjrekar
By the time Varun Dhawan –yesssss, he is in it too,so rejoice all you fans of the pinup province—shows up for a vigorous dance number, we don’t know who’s coming or going. Or staying. If you consider your own dilemma as a viewer desirous of being freed from this frenetic dizzying dance of debt and death.
Antim means well—it has to, since it is directed by Mahesh Manjrekar who once made Vaastav and City Of Gold, powerful parables on exploitation and violence powered by a genuine social concern. Antim is what Manmohan Desai used to call a proposal film: sign the hero first… during those days the music director also mattered… and then weave a story around him.
