Bollywood Showdown: Alpha Soars Globally, Dhamaal 4 Tanks Critically
Alia Bhatt's 'Alpha' is dominating the global box office, nearing ₹80 crore! Meanwhile, Ajay Devgn's 'Dhamaal 4' faces harsh reviews. Get the latest on Bollywood's new releases!
Alia Bhatt's 'Alpha' has made a significant mark at the global box office, crossing an impressive ₹79.21 crore in its first week. The action thriller garnered ₹56.66 crore from the Indian box office and an additional ₹22.55 crore internationally, showcasing consistent performance and solidifying Bhatt's standing in the film industry.
In stark contrast, Ajay Devgn's latest comedy, 'Dhamaal 4', has opened to a dismal critical reception. Reviewers have lambasted the film for its 'unfunny jokes' and an 'avalanche of CGI', with one prominent review granting it a mere 1 out of 5 stars. Despite Devgn's efforts with daring stunts, the film's only occasional bright spot seems to be Ravi Kishan's portrayal of a Jack Sparrow-esque 'samudri daku', who reportedly delivers some comedic relief.
While 'Alpha' continues its strong run, 'Dhamaal 4' is predicted to open above ₹10 crore in India. This weekend presents a clear divide in audience and critical response for Bollywood's newest offerings, highlighting the unpredictable nature of the box office.
