Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar 2 Preview Ticket Sales Surge, Prices Hit Rs 2400 Ranveer Singh’s highly anticipated sequel Dhurandhar: The Revenge has generated massive buzz ahead of its release, with preview ticket sales skyrocketing. As the film’s release date approaches, fans have been scrambling to secure seats for the special preview screenings, which are scheduled to take place a day before the official premiere. According to reports, ticket prices for these previews have surged to as high as Rs 2400 per ticket, far exceeding the initial starting price of Rs 300. The advance sales for the preview have already seen significant traction, with BookMyShow data indicating that the film has crossed the 40,000 ticket sale mark across major theater chains nationwide. This has led to total revenue from preview bookings reaching approximately Rs 5 crore. The film is set to debut in five languages—Hindi, Malayalam, Telugu, Tamil, and Kannada—marking a departure from its predecessor, which was released exclusively in Hindi. The first installment of the Dhurandhar series, which was released in 2024, earned around Rs 1,354 crore globally, setting a high bar for its sequel. The success of the original film has fueled expectations for Dhurandhar 2, which is expected to further boost its box office performance. The film’s release date has also been strategically positioned to avoid direct competition with another upcoming blockbuster, Toxic: A Fairy Tale For Adults, starring Yash. Initially scheduled for March 19, Toxic was postponed to June 4 due to the sensitivity of its content and the ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. This shift in release dates has allowed Dhurandhar 2 to secure a more favorable window for its debut.#ranveer_singh #dhurandhar_2 #bookmyshow #toxic_fairy_tale_for_adults #yash

Bill Maher Challenges Adam Schiff With Fabricated Trump Quote Bill Maher tried to catch Democratic Senator Adam Schiff in a "gotcha" moment during a discussion about Donald Trump’s military actions in Iran. Maher cited a statement from the administration claiming the president had constitutional authority to use military force if it served the national interest, asking Schiff if the phrasing was too vague. Schiff responded by acknowledging the ambiguity, prompting Maher to reveal the quote was actually from a 2011 Obama administration document regarding military operations in Libya. Schiff explained that while Obama had also authorized military action without congressional approval, lawmakers had pushed back against the decision, leading to the eventual halt of operations. The conversation unfolded amid ongoing U.S. military escalation in Iran, with Trump asserting that the country was being "beaten to hell" and warning of further attacks on Truth Social. The president has reportedly expressed interest in deploying ground troops to combat Iran. The current bombardment campaign, dubbed Operation Epic Fury, has killed over 1,200 Iranians and six U.S. service members, according to Iranian officials. Both Democrats and Republicans have criticized the operation, though House Speaker Mike Johnson denied the U.S. is at war with Iran, calling the actions "limited in scope." Schiff reflected on Obama’s 2011 Libya intervention, noting that Congress had passed a resolution demanding an explanation for the decision and urging troop withdrawal. He acknowledged Obama’s reluctance to pursue Assad despite the latter’s use of chemical weapons, citing concerns over congressional opposition.#donald_trump #bill_maher #adam_schiff #operation_epic_fury #mike_johnson

Michigan State vs. Michigan: Game Preview, Prediction, and Key Matchup Analysis Michigan State and Michigan will face off in a highly anticipated matchup at Crisler Center in Ann Arbor on Sunday, March 7, at 4:30 p.m. ET. The game, which carries significant implications for both teams’ NCAA tournament seeding, pits the No. 8-ranked Spartans against the No. 3 Wolverines. Michigan State enters the contest with a 25-5 overall record and a 15-4 mark in the Big Ten, while Michigan boasts a 28-2 record and a 18-1 conference slate. The Wolverines, who have already secured the Big Ten title, are favored at -10.5 points on the betting line. Tom Izzo’s Michigan State squad, now in his 31st season as head coach, looks to build on a recent close victory over Rutgers, which kept them in the running for a No. 2 or 3 seed in the NCAA tournament. The Spartans’ performance against Michigan will be crucial for their tournament positioning, as will the outcome of Nebraska’s final game against Iowa. A Spartans win or a Nebraska loss could secure them a No. 2 seed in the Big Ten tournament. Michigan, meanwhile, remains undefeated on the road this season after a narrow 71-68 win over Iowa, a feat not seen in the Big Ten since 1974. The Wolverines, led by head coach Dusty May, are ranked No. 2 in the NET and Kenpom rankings, with a top-tier defense and a strong offense. However, they face a challenge with the loss of sophomore guard L.J. Cason to a torn ACL, a key contributor off the bench. Despite this, Michigan’s depth and resilience have been evident throughout the season. The matchup features two standout players: Jeremy Fears Jr. for Michigan State and Yaxel Lendeborg for Michigan.#michigan #tom_izzo #michigan_state #crisler_center #dusty_may
