Fighter Box Office Collection Day 8: Hrithik Roshan-Deepika Padukone's Film Is A Few Crores From 150

Fighter, on day 8 at the domestic box office, minted ₹ 5.75 crore (across all languages), reported Sacnilk. It is worth noting that the day 8 [first Thursday] collection is less than the film's day 7 figures. Now, the total collection of the Siddharth Anand directorial stands at ₹ 146.25 crore. Fighter started witnessing a dip in its business from Monday onwards when it recorded a single-digit earning of ₹ 8 crore compared to Sunday's total of ₹29 crore. The aerial actioner marks the first on-screen collaboration between Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone.

Fighter features Hrithik Roshan essaying the role of Squadron Leader Shamsher Pathania, aka Patty, and Deepika Padukone as Squadron Leader Minal Rathore, aka Mini. The film also stars Anil Kapoor, Karan Singh Grover, and Akshay Oberoi in prominent roles. Fighter revolves around India's airstrike following the Pulwama terrorist attack. The film has been jointly backed by Viacom18 Studios and Marflix Pictures.

The Siddharth Anand directorial has impressed many industry colleagues. Actor R Madhavan has given a special shout out to Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone's performance in the film. 

Showering love on the entire Fighter team, R Madhavan on X (formerly Twitter) wrote, “Siddharth Anand - What an extraordinary film Fighter is ...with brilliant work by all concerned ... Take a bow the entire cast and crew… you guys have given Indian cinema a fantastic, super motivating, moving, and an archival film. This is simply going to be a hallmark of how truly international Indian cinema has become today. Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, Anil Kapoor.”

@justSidAnand —-What an extraordinary film #Fighter is …with brilliant work by all concerned … Take a bow the entire cast and crew.. you guys have given Indian cinema a fantastic, super motivating, moving, and an archival film. This is simply going to be a hallmark of how truly…

— Ranganathan Madhavan (@ActorMadhavan) January 30, 2024

In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave the film 2.5 stars out of 5. Talking about Hrithik Roshan's character Patty, he wrote, “He is a cocky Fighter pilot who flies into danger without batting an eyelid. He is a charmer who can talk two ladies into parting with their plates of biryani. He can dance like a dream after a mission has been accomplished and a peppy celebratory number is in order. And, when things heat up, he can jump into close-quarters combat with the villain.”

From Mr. and Mrs. Smith to Orion and the Dark: Here Are the Top OTT Releases to Binge-Watch This Weekend

This week's biggest OTT release will undoubtedly have to be Amazon Prime's Mr. and Mrs. Smith, a spy-romance series that throws two lonely strangers into a pretend marriage for a mission. As the unlikely couple tries to balance everything, hilarious chaos unravels.

For Netflix, After Everything: The Final Chapter — the fifth installment in the After film franchise — seems to be the biggest name. It will follow the protagonist author's inner conflicts, introspections, and chapters from his past.

While there aren't major TV show releases for the week on Netflix India, it has plenty to offer in terms of documentaries. You could go for Alexander: The Making of God for a slice of history — where the great commander sets off to conquer the world — or The Greatest Night in Pop, which shows how 46 legendary singers like Michael Jackson came together for the making of the song “We are the World”.

On the international shore, you could go for Let's Talk About Chu (Taiwanese) or Baby Bandito (Chilean). The former follows a part-time vlogger who speaks candidly about intimacy and sex online but struggles with the subject in real life. On the other hand, Baby Bandito follows a skater and his group who orchestrate a big (real-life) heist in Chile, putting everyone's future at stake.

Prime Video's Expats has also released the third episode for Expats, which finds Margaret obsessively trying to figure out the truth behind her son's disappearance, Hilary trying to keep up appearances, and Mercy entangled in an intense affair.

If you are looking for trending Indian Originals, you could go for Killer Soup on Netflix — which is also the most-watched series on the platform for this week — or Indian Police Force on Prime Video — which is the most binge-watched first season on Prime Video for an Indian original in the first week of launch.

Some other new releases of the week are Delicious in Dungeon, NASCAR Full Speed, The Seven Deadly Sins: Four Knights of the Apocalypse, and WiL.

Happy binge-watching!

Mr. And Mrs. Smith

When: Now Streaming

Where: Netflix

Donald Glover and Maya Erskine play two lonely strangers in, Mr. And Mrs. Smith, who seem to have given up on their lives. When they are recruited by a mysterious spy agency, they hop onto the opportunity.

For their first espionage together, they must pretend to be a couple. Next in line are lots of drama, chaos, adventures, and maybe.. romance.

And if the name and plot sound too familiar, it's because the series is inspired by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's 2005 spy-action-comedy of the same name. If you are a fan of the spy-romance troupe, don't miss this one.

Alexander: The Making of a God

When: Now Streaming

Where: Netflix

If you are a bit of a history enthusiast, this insightful docu-drama series is perfect for your weekend binge watch. It covers the life of Alexander the Great, the fearless Macedonian king and military genius who conquered almost the entire world. Besides his obvious military conquests, the series also offers anecdotes from his personal life, intriguing facts from academicians and the controversies around his sexuality.

After Everything: The Final Chapter

When: Now Streaming

Where: Netflix

If you have been following the story of Tessa Young and Hardin Scott, you know that the couple has now broken up. A year has passed since, and Hardin is still heartbroken and suffering from writer's block. Upon his mother's advice, he decides to visit Lisbon and introspect about his past and.. make amends maybe?

All in all, the film majorly revolves around Hardin trying to reflect on his mistakes and dishes out incidents from his past, which shaped his perspective (nope, there isn't much covered about Tessa's past).

If you are new to the franchise, you can stream the first four parts on Netflix — After (2019) [also available on Prime Video], After We Collided (2020), After We Fell (2021), and After Ever Happy (2022).

Orion and the Dark

When: Now Streaming

Where: Netflix

Meet Orion: a shy, reserved and timid adolescent afraid of many things; bees, dogs, the ocean, cell phone waves, murderous gutter clowns, and falling off a cliff. But what he is terrified of the most is the darkness, something which he battles each night.

Things take a rather unexpected and interesting turn for Orion when “Dark” takes him out for an adventure around the world to prove to him that there is nothing to be afraid of in the night.

Emmy winner Paul Walter Hauser (Black Bird) lends his voice to the Dark, and Jacob Tremblay — popular for his brilliant performances in Room (2016) and Wonder (2017) — to Orion.

The Greatest Night in Pop

When: Now Streaming

Where: Netflix

Whether or not you are a pop-culture enthusiast, chances are that you've heard the tunes of We Are The World. The song is a result of 46 legendary singers like Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, Bruce Springsteen, and Diana Ross coming together to create this musical piece to raise funds for famine relief in Africa back in 1985.

Netflix's documentary will take you behind the making of this piece, which, by the way, created quite a wave globally. Get ready for many unseen footages that have the artists in candid mode. It also includes present-day interviews with the crew involved, like the cameramen and lighting engineer.

Anatomy Of A Fall Review: Riveting Drama Is An Unqualified Triumph

In Anatomy Of A Fall, her fourth film, French writer-director Justin Triet launches into a comprehensive examination of a festering relationship that ends with a sickening thud. The inquest yields an intense, riveting drama built around a suspected murder and a bruising courtroom battle.

Thanks to the firm grip that she and co-writer Arthur Harari establish on the material, the film uses its two dimensions - it is both a marital story and a legal thriller - to inspect the innards of a home overrun by unresolved issues - incompatibility, infidelity, jealousy and gnawing bitterness.

The home where Anatomy Of A Fall is set is a renovated chalet located on a snow-covered mountain. It is isolated, often dimly lit and split by staircases that lead to what feel like uncomfortably cramped spaces, acute angles and sharp tangents. It is a cold space that is in the grip of unease - a fact established right at the outset.

Discordantly loud music is blasted from the attic as a woman tries to have a conversation with an interviewer amid the din on the level below. Serenity is the last thing that is within the realms of possibility here. The interview is aborted as the music gets louder. This is a perfect a lead-up  to the what is to unfold over the next two hours and a bit.          

Sensationally solid writing, a staggeringly stupendous Sandra Huller and filmmaking of the highest order lie at the foundation of Anatomy Of A Fall, a thriller that breaks free from all generic limitations and turns into a riveting post-mortem of an unstable marriage.

Samuel Maleski (Samuel Theis) falls to his death from his attic in his remote chalet near Grenoble. His wife, successful German novelist Sandra Voyter (Huller), is the prime suspect. Their son Daniel (Milo Machado Graner), a visually impaired eleven-year-old, is the sole 'witness'.

The boy returns from a walk with his guide dog Snoop (Cannes Palm Dog winner Messi) to find his dad lying dead in a pool of blood under the window. His testimony holds the key to the mystery of an incident that the police aren't willing to dismiss as an accident or a case of suicide.

With the odds loaded against her, Sandra is indicted. In the courtroom, the prosecutor (Antoine Reinartz), who is persistence personified, is hell bent on incriminating Sandra. Vincent Renzi (Swann Arlaud, brilliantly effortless), an old lawyer-friend of Sandra's, puts up a stout defence in the face of a battery of people who testify against his client.

Anatomy Of A Fall dives deep into the conflicting truths and presumptions about the severe emotional and psychological turmoil that the family has weathered over the years. At first flush, the fissures are the cause of Samuel's death as well as its consequence. The film's focus is as much on the wife as on the pre-teen boy forced to grow up quickly in the face of the unsettling turn of events.

A two-and-a-half-hour-long legal drama might have been exhausting had it not been so adroitly plotted and paced. Like a master orchestra conductor on the top of every note, every rhythm and every resource, Triet handles the crucial reveals with phenomenal control. Not for a moment is this film about a marriage cut short by a tragedy off-balance.

The physical fall that sparks an investigation, an indictment, a trial and unrelenting media attention is only the culmination of a relationship in free-fall. The fatal plummet is a metaphor for the direction in which Sandra and Samuel's marriage has gone since a road accident left Daniel with permanent optic nerve damage.

Anatomy Of A Fall uses the complicated and protracted trial to bring to the surface vital questions, in a completely non-judgmental manner, about a woman who exerts control on everything around her and a man who is beset with a sense of inadequacy, failure, resentment and guilt. You are a monster, the husband thunders during a raging argument the couple have a day before Samuel's death. He also accuses her of being cold-hearted. Before the tape is played in the courtroom in a bid to prove Sandra's culpability, a scene has her asserting to her son that she isn't the monster that he might be led to think she is.

She says to the traumatised boy: "Your father was my soulmate. We chose each other. How do we prove that?" Her words constitute a despairing entreaty. They also add up to an assertion of innocence. But how tough things are for Sandra becomes clear when nobody - certainly not the prosecutor and the police investigator - is in any mood to give her a chance.  

An audio recording of the nasty spat that ends in violence between Sandra and Samuel becomes a key exhibit in the trial. It also underpins a probe into the pitfalls of the expectation of reciprocity in a relationship between two temperamentally and culturally different individuals. Samuel is French, Sandra is German. English is their language of communication.

 What separates Anatomy Of A Fall distinct from other legal dramas is the centrality that it accords to the child caught in the middle. It is on his testimony that his mother's fate hinges. Is she to be punished for being the woman she is - focused on her work and endowed with the talent and drive to churn out novels at a pace that her husband, a teacher-turned-writer unable to wrap up his first book, probably envies?

In a brief exchange during the trial, Zoe Solidor (Camille Rutherford), the student we see in the opening sequence of the film interviewing Sandra for her thesis, objects to being addressed by the judge as "Ms. Solidor". Do not reduce me to a marital status, she snaps. It is a stray utterance but loaded with great significance.

Anatomy Of A Fall puts a bickering couple under a scanner but its primary ambition isn't limited to merely crafting a legal thriller with a plethora of twists and turns. It is just as intent on presenting the story of a woman who effortlessly puts the man she loves in the shade and sees no value in subjugating her personal aspirations to making the marriage work. It is a film that keeps delivering surprises until its final scene.  

The Palme d'Or winner emphatically rearranges the contours of the courtroom drama. It has deservedly earned five Oscar nominations. But it needs no awards to prove its worth. An unqualified triumph. Don't lose the chance to watch it on the big screen - that is where Anatomy Of A Fall belongs.

Realme 12 Pro Review: Great Design, Good Hardware

January 2024 has been Jan-packed with new smartphone launches and one of them was the new Realme 12 Pro 5G series. The latest number series from Realme includes the Realme 12 Pro 5G and the Realme 12 Pro+ 5G. While both phones look similar to the Realme 11 Pro lineup from the front, there are some changes internally, and on the rear panel. I've been using the Realme 12 Pro 5G for more than a week testing out various aspects of the Realme 12 Pro. Here's what I think of the phone.

Realme 12 Pro price in India

The Realme 12 Pro is available in India at a starting price of Rs. 25,999 for the base 8GB RAM + 128GB variant. There's also an 8GB RAM + 256GB storage variant, which is priced at Rs. 26,999. Realme offers the new phone in two colour options or finishes. There's the Navigator Beige option, and there's the Submarine Blue. We received the 256GB variant in Submarine Blue for review.

You get a 67W fast charger in-the-box

The unboxing experience of the Realme 12 Pro 5G is similar to other phones in the price segment. You get all the things that you'd expect. There's a 67W charging brick, a USB Type-A to Type-C cable, a case to protect the phone, SIM ejector tool, and the usual paperwork.

Realme 12 Pro Review: Design

There are only a few smartphones out there that make people go ‘what phone is that'. The Realme 12 Pro 5G is sure to get similar comments. Almost every other smartphone, apart from foldables, is a slab these days, but Realme has tried and succeeded to make its slab look different and stylish.

I received the Submarine Blue variant and it looks brilliant. The rear panel on the Realme 12 Pro has a vegan leather finish and a camera module that looks similar to a luxury watch dial. Realme has partnered with French luxury watchmaker Ollivier Savéo who's worked with popular brands such as Rolex, Breitling, and more.

The phone gets a vegan leather finish rear panel

 

The main attraction here is the camera module with gold accents on the outside and a sunburst dial inside. The phone has good weight to it (196g) and feels good to hold in hand. Both the display and the rear panel are curved, making the phone look and feel slimmer than it is (8.75mm). The Realme 12 Pro feels great in hand, and you won't have any fingerprints or smudges on the back thanks to the vegan leather finish.

On the front, the phone has uniform bezels on the opposite sides that are thin. The front looks very similar to the Realme 11 Pro, which also had a curved display of the same size. The Realme 12 Pro 5G comes with an IP65 rating as well.

Realme 12 Pro Review: Specifications and software

The Realme 12 Pro is equipped with a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor coupled with the Adreno 710 GPU, 8GB RAM, and 256GB storage. It comes with a Dynamic RAM feature that can add up to 8GB of additional VRAM borrowed from the internal storage. Talking about storage, it isn't expandable. The phone comes with a USB Type-C port at the bottom accompanied by a speaker, microphone, and a SIM card tray, which supports dual 5G SIM. The top of the phone houses another speaker grille and a microphone. On the left edge, you'll find the power and volume buttons.

Realme 12 Pro 5G has a dual speaker setup

 

For connectivity, you get Bluetooth 5.2, Wi-Fi 6 dual-band, and support for all the major GPS satellites. Realme could've included Wi-Fi 6E here and perhaps a newer Bluetooth standard as other phones in the similar price range do get newer connectivity standards.

Realme has included an in-display fingerprint scanner on the handset. It's placed at the bottom of the display, and while it would've been nicer to have it a little higher, the scanner works well. I had no issues unlocking the phone in the time I've been using it.

The Realme 12 Pro comes with a 5,000mAh battery with a 67W fast charger in the box, same as its predecessor. Nothing new to see here.

Realme 12 Pro offers 2 years of software updates

 

Now, let's talk about software. You'll get the latest Android 14-based Realme UI 5.0 on the Realme 12 Pro. And during my time with the phone, I received two minor updates to improve the camera performance. Realme UI 5.0 is smooth and also loaded with bloatware. You get the usual Hot Apps and Hot Games folder, Glance lock screen, and several pre-installed apps. While you can disable some, you can't really get rid of them. The phone gets some useful features with Realme UI 5.0 such as File Dock, Smart image matting, and Phonelink. Realme says that it'll provide 2 years of software and 3 years of security updates for the phone.

The Smart image matting feature lets you separate a subject from the background on a photo. With File Dock you can easily share files using drag-and-drop, and Phonelink lets you connect to a Windows computer and share files, messages, notifications, and even screen phone calls.

Realme 12 Pro Review: Performance

Now, let's talk performance. While the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chip is good enough for daily tasks and even gaming, it's not heavily performance oriented. Realme has focussed more on the camera and design with the Realme 12 Pro 5G. Benchmark results of the phone are bleak compared to some other offerings in the same price range. In AnTuTu, with performance mode enabled, the phone managed 5,90,047 points. With the mode disabled, it received a score of 5,61,099. With Geekbench 6, the phone received a score of 882 in Single-core and 2693 in Multi-core with performance mode disabled. The scores weren't very different with the mode turned on. Like I said, not a big performer, but at the same time, I did not face any major lag with day to day tasks. Opening/closing apps, opening a background app, launching games, and such things worked quite smoothly. When the 8GB RAM was limiting performance, the phone would quickly use the Dynamic RAM feature to make up for the lack of physical RAM.

The phone gets a 6.7-inch AMOLED panel with 120Hz refresh rate

 

Moving to the display, the Realme 12 Pro has a curved 6.7-inch AMOLED panel with full-HD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, 240Hz touch sampling rate, and a maximum brightness of 800 nits. The display has good colours and gets plenty bright for indoor use. When using the phone outdoors and under direct sunlight, the display is readable. As for display colour options, you can choose between Vivid, Natural, Cinematic, or Brilliant. You can also manually choose the screen colour temperature. Realme has also included the O1 Video Colour Boost engine that converts SDR to HDR. However, this feature is only supported on certain apps. The viewing angles on the phone are also pretty great and I did not observe any washing out.

The Realme 12 Pro 5G comes with a dual speaker setup that can get very loud. There's some bass as well, and good separation thanks to the speakers being placed at the top and bottom. The audio quality is also good during calls and the earpiece gets pretty loud. No issues here, but nothing exceptional either.

Can you game on the Realme 12 Pro? Yes, you definitely can. You won't get the highest graphics or frame rates, but you can surely game on the phone. I played COD and BGMI on the phone and it performed well. The phone did not get too hot either, but I did notice some touch misses at times. I didn't notice any major frame rate drops or lag in multiplayer games, but my gaming sessions only lasted about 30 minutes max. The rear panel does get warm, but not so much that you'll have to wait for it to cool down. I also didn't notice any major heating when using the camera or in day-to-day tasks. The vegan leather finish also helps hide the heat well.

Now, for some battery usage and performance results. The Realme 12 Pro 5G's 5,000mAh battery can easily last you a day with some heavy gaming, camera usage, watching YouTube and other streaming services, some doom scrolling, and other day to day tasks. Remove heavy gaming from the list and the phone can last over a day. If you don't consume a lot of content, you could even push the phone to last 2 days without a charge. Talking about charge, you can top up the battery in no time. Realme claims that the provided 67W charger can charge the phone to 100 percent in 48 minutes. In my tests, the phone took 43 minutes to charge from 10 to 100 percent. I'm sure the 48 minute number is attainable even if you charge from 0 percent.

Realme 12 Pro Review: Cameras

Finally, the first major selling point of the Realme 12 Pro, the new cameras. The handset comes with a triple rear camera setup, but you might be fooled into believing that there are four cameras at the back. The fourth one is a dummy unfortunately. Coming to the real cameras, you get a primary 50-megapixel Sony IMX 882 sensor with OIS, PDAF support, 26mm focal length, and f/1.8 aperture. This is accompanied by a new 32-megapixel Sony IMX 709 telephoto sensor with 2x optical zoom, and 4x lossless in-sensor zoom. Lastly, there's an 8-megapixel ultrawide sensor. This is a big improvement over last year's dual-camera setup that included a 100-megapixel main sensor and a 2-megapixel depth unit.

The phone comes with a 50-megapixel Sony IMX 882 main sensor

 

The camera interface on the phone is similar to what you'll find on most Android smartphones. All the modes are placed separately above the shutter button, and you get a More option that hides the Pro mode, Panorama, Hi-Res mode, Timelapse, Long Exposure, dual-view, Starry Mode, and more. The standard modes include Photo, Video, Portrait, Night, and Street.

In Photo mode, you get 0.6x, 1x, 2x, and 4x options. The image quality from the main rear camera is quite good in daylight conditions. The 2x optical zoom also produces good results. However, the colours can be saturated at times and I did notice some artifacting in some images very rarely. The 4x image looks a little washed out and loses out on details. The ultra-wide camera also takes good photos in daylight, but you can notice the difference in colours, details, and HDR between the main and the ultrawide sensor.

Top: Daylight photos; Bottom: Lowlight with auto Night Mode

 

When the sun goes down, the cameras say bye to details, but pictures taken in lowlight using the main sensor is still usable. The main camera can take good pictures with decent details if there's some lighting around. Taking pictures of the night sky or landscape will result in photos with not a lot of details. The high dynamic range and colours are also off in lowlight scenarios. The 2x zoom isn't great in lowlight and the photos mostly have washed details and noise. It's the same with the ultrawide camera, which also shoots photos with a lot of noise and washed out details. Portrait shots in lowlight have bad edge detection, but you do get some details if there's some light.

1x Portrait mode shots are taken with the main camera, 2x uses the telephoto sensor

 

Selfie photos taken from the Realme 12 Pro 5G are good. The phone gets a 16-megapixel front camera that can take 1080p videos at 30fps. You get good enough usable selfies that have good details in daylight, but things get washed out in lowlight.

Coming to videos, the phone can take 4K resolution videos at 30fps, but you can also take full advantage of the OIS stabilisation in videos shot in 1080p at 60fps. Realme calls the stabilisation mode Ultra Steady and the results are not bad. There is some fringing, but you can totally use the videos on social media. Videos shot in 4K resolution do have plenty of details in daylight, but there's noticeable noise and weird artifacts in lowlight.

Realme 12 Pro Review: Verdict

With a starting price of Rs. 25,999, the Realme 12 Pro 5G has plenty of phones to compete with. Some of the recently launched phones that come to mind are the Redmi Note 13 Pro and the Poco X6 Pro (Review).

The Realme 12 Pro 5G is a good looking smartphone with several things going for it. You get a unique design with vegan leather finish, good display with 120Hz refresh rate, the performance is good enough for daily use and some gaming, the battery lasts long and you can top it up quickly, and the cameras offer very good results in daylight. There's not a lot you're missing out on. It's a great phone for the price, but the only question is, would I recommend it over phones like the Poco X6 Pro? If cameras and design are more important for you, then you should buy the Realme 12 Pro, if performance is more important, then I'd say go for the Poco.
