All About The Sabarmati Report OTT Release! (Photo Credit – Instagram)

After the massive success of 12th Fail, Vikrant Massey was expected to deliver another box office hit with The Sabarmati Report.

As per multiple online reports, The Sabarmati Report will premiere online in early January 2025. Most Bollywood films make it to the digital world eight weeks after their theatrical run. Vikrant Massey’s film was released in theatres on November 15, 2024. This means one can expect Dheeraj Sarna‘s directorial to arrive online around January 15. However, an official update from the makers is awaited.

Where to watch The Sabarmati Report online?

The political drama will be released on ZEE5. It is to be noted that The Sabarmati Report was produced by Balaji Motion Pictures and distributed by Zee Studios. So, it only makes sense for the producers to use their in-house streaming platform!

Apart from Vikrant Massey, Riddhi Dogra and Raashii Khanna are seen in pivotal roles.

Few days on the calendar induce audiences like Christmas, making everyone from families to individuals and casual viewers to movie fanatics, to embrace the season through films. With Santa Claus’s arrival just around the corner, here, we present a varied range of those significant holiday movies—from heartwarming fan-favorite holiday classics and superhero flicks to uncomfortable horrors and thrillers that disguise the cozy holiday into a shivering, darker, more twisted experience, proving Christmas isn’t always merry.

10. How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000)

How the Grinch Stole Christmas (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Dr. Seuss’ titular bad guy character is brought to life by Jim Carrey in this 2000 iteration directed by Ron Howard. One of two iconic Christmas fantasies starring Carrey, alongside A Christmas Carol, this adaptation reimagines the Grinch as a bitter, misanthropic humanoid plotting to ruin Christmas for the Whos in Whoville. To lift this persona to a greater extent, Carrey had to infamously endure a demanding prosthetic process to transform into the green creature thanks to phenomenal makeup, hairstyling, and visual effects. Carrey’s performance, filled with his signature eccentricity, physicality, and goofy dialogue, ultimately ensures his Grinch steals anything but the Christmas spirit of the viewers.

9. Batman Returns (1992)

While an unpopular choice, Batman Returns is the closest superhero movie to venture into Christmas spirits, taking place during Gotham City’s snowy year-end season. Not the sole entry from Tim Burton on this list, the Michael Keaton-starrer combines festive cheer with the mayhem caused by Danny DeVito’s cunning Penguin and Michelle Pfeiffer’s seductive Catwoman. As Bruce Wayne battles the newfangled liaisons of his dangerous rivals, typical features of holiday seasons, such as loneliness and redemption, intertwine with the otherwise visible holiday motifs. Burton’s gothic direction transforms Gotham into a strangely comical winter wonderland, where Christmas trees and decorations are the constant reminders of positivity.

8. Elf (2003)

Elf stars Will Ferrell as Buddy, a human raised by Santa Claus’ elves at the North Pole. One of the most beloved Christmas fantasies, this cherished holiday entry sees Buddy’s journey back to New York City to reconnect with his biological father while spreading Christmas cheer. Iron Man director Jon Favreau fuels the whimsical tale with Ferrell’s signature playful humor to complement the festive charm. Visually absorbing, Elf features everything from snowy streets and twinkling lights to oversized decorations to blur the line separating reality with fantasy as audiences back home are immersed into the high-stake character-driven story.

7. Black Christmas (1974)

Another unconventional and rather graphic choice, Black Christmas is a grotesque slasher from Bob Clark that later inspired John Carpenter to conceive his genre-defining Halloween franchise. Set during a festive sorority house Christmas, the horror movie contrasts the season’s cheer with unsettling terror as sorority sisters face a psychopathic stalker. Its atmospheric use of holiday lights and carols deepens the tone, laying the bridge between the cult classic and the 1970s slasher boom of Hollywood. While families tend to avoid the temptation of witnessing scream queens, horror fanatics hold Black Christmas in higher regards.

6. The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)

Clocking in at just 76 minutes, this tightly packed animated affair efficiently combines fantasy, music, and dark humor. The Nightmare Before Christmas tells the story of Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, who becomes infatuated with the idea of Christmas and attempts to take over the holiday by Santa Claus in order to spread despair. Often hailed as the best Tim Burton movie not directed by Burton himself, it features Henry Selick’s enchanting direction and Danny Elfman’s unforgettable score. As a musical with horror undertones, it caters to a wide audience who can’t seem to take their eyes off of the gothic visuals and quirky characters.

5. Eyes Wide Shut (1999)

Stanley Kubrick’s peculiar collaboration with Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, ‘Eyes Wide Shut,’ follows a doctor on the verge of a midlife crisis that propels him into a surreal spiral of inexplicable events. Set against a Christmas backdrop, erotic–mystery mirrors traditional holiday stories where protagonists search for lost purpose and spirit. However, rather than joy, Kubrick crafts a chilling and suspenseful narrative, contrasting festivity with incessant disconcerting revelations. Its hypnotic story transcends the excessive on-screen nudity and sexual imagery, cementing Kubrick’s swan song as an unconventional holiday special.

4. Edward Scissorhands (1990)

Another Christmas present from Tim Burton, co-written by Caroline Thompson, Edward Scissorhands is among the most original pieces of enchanting fairy tales coming to life. Johnny Depp plays Edward, a gentle, never-before-seen artificial man with literal scissors for hands, created by a reclusive inventor but left incomplete. When Edward is taken in by a suburban family, his artistic talents mesmerize the town while his defining trait also precipitates fear and prejudice. Set against the backdrop of a cozy, magical Christmas, Burton’s distinctive storytelling style captures both Edward’s beauty and melancholy, crafting an evergreen tale of love and acceptance.

3. Die Hard (1988)

For 36 years, this iconic entry in the Die Hard franchise has sparked end-of-year debates about its place among holiday classics, with most affirming, thanks to its iconic festive backdrop and enduring legacy.

2. Home Alone (1990)

Often named among the most iconic movies and often regarded as a family iteration of Die Hard, Home Alone has evolved into a traditional Christmas ritual. Starring Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister, a delinquent 10-year-old accidentally left behind during the holidays, the aptly titled comedy showcases his defense against two bumbling burglars. Director Chris Columbus incorporates lightheartedness as Kevin cleverly outsmarts the villains at each and every step. From twinkling trees to winter gifts and chimneys, Christmas is woven into every frame of Home Alone alongside humor and nostalgia, cementing its place in holiday movie traditions worldwide.

1. It’s a Wonderful Life (1946)

It’s a Wonderful Life loosely adapts Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol for a supernatural family experience with a deeply motivating core. James Stewart stars as George Bailey, a disillusioned man whose life deteriorates, leading him to consider suicide on Christmas Eve. Enter Clarence (Henry Travers), a literal guardian angel, who shows George the “what-if” scenarios of his existence by presenting an alternate reality where he never existed. Frank Capra’s storytelling transforms this exploration of despair and redemption into an emotional journey that stands out even within a filmography as illustrious as his own, securing It’s a Wonderful Life as a timeless classic whose impact is not limited to holidays.

Venom: The Last Dance is on the last leg of its theatrical run and has also arrived on the digital platform. Tom Hardy’s 2024 Marvel movie has had a tepid run at the box office and has now been overshadowed by multiple movies. However, it did enjoy #1 at the US box office for a few weeks. It has now arrived in the comfort of your house, and to know the further details, scroll below.

About the movie-

Venom 3 is the third film in the Venom franchise, and it is led by Tom Hardy. It is seemingly the last film in the series, and Kelly Marcel sat in the director’s seat for this one after being one of the writers in the previous two movies. This was her directorial debut. The cast included Chiwetel Ejiofor, Juno Temple, Rhys Ifans, Stephen Graham, Peggy Lu, Clark Backo, Alanna Ubach, and Andy Serkis to support Tom Hardy in the titular role. The threequel delves deeper into the relationship between Eddie Brock and the symbiote Venom.

The critics gave it 41%, while the audience gave it 81% on Rotten Tomatoes. This shows that the fans love watching Tom in that role and might even wish to see him more in the future. Hardy’s Venom, which came out in 2018, was the first film in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe. Speaking of Venom: The Last Dance, the critics consensus read, “The always watchable Tom Hardy injects ample charisma into Venom: The Last Dance, but the offering buckles under its convoluted tonal ambitions.”

Meanwhile, in Venom 3, Eddie Brock and Venom are on the run and being hunted by both of their worlds. With the net closing in, they are forced to make a drastic decision. According to reports, Venom: The Last Dance had an estimated budget of $120 million and has earned almost four times the price tag.

Its Box Office Reception –

Initially, Venom 3 was predicted to collect more than $60 million in the United States. However, it came in lower than the projections, collecting only $51 million in its debut weekend in the United States. The film is still trying to hold its ground strong amid multiple releases and has so far collected $139.50 million in North America.

The film did better in the international markets. In China, Venom: The Last Dance surpassed Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3’s collections to become the highest-grossing comic book movie post-COVID. It has collected $336 million overseas, and adding that to the domestic cume, venom 3’s global cume has reached $475.5 million. It is now just a matter of time before it bids adieu to the theatres. The third installment is also the lowest-grossing film in the franchise. However, it is still among the top 10 highest-grossing films of the year and is currently at #9.

OTT Release Date –

Tom Hardy starrer Venom 3 was released in the theatres on October 25 and is still running there. The film has, however, arrived on digital platforms. It is available on Amazon Prime Video for rent. The streaming platform posted the news on its official Instagram handle with the caption, “Hold on tight! The final act of CHAOS & MAYHEM is here.”

The Music Industry is currently mourning the death of Ustad Zakir Hussain. The Tabla Maestro passed away in the US, fighting certain health ailments at the age of 73. Sadly, the news broke at a time when he was still struggling for life, and his family requested to pray for his life.

But the family confirmed that he died at a hospital in San Francisco. “He leaves behind an extraordinary legacy cherished by countless music lovers around the globe, with an influence that will resonate for generations to come,” said the statement from the family.

“He passed away very peacefully after the ventilation machine was switched off. This was 4 pm, San Francisco time,” said Ustad Zakir Hussain’s sister, Khurshid Aulia, in a statement to PTI quoted by NDTV. Singer Sonu Nigam shared the news of him being critical on his Instagram last night, which was followed by heartfelt tributes from others. Kareena Kapoor Khan, Ranveer Singh, and other celebrities paid heartfelt tributes on social media after the unfortunate news was confirmed.

Ustad Zakir Khan’s Net Worth

A lot of queries about Ustad are being searched on Google, and the three most important ones – are Ustad Zakir Hussain’s net worth, his salary, and awards. While his total assets are not confirmed, Jansatta and a lot of reports have said it to be around 8 – 10 crore. Meanwhile, Indiaforum reported that his net worth was 5 – 6 crore. The Tabla Maestro has won 5 Grammy awards.

Three Bollywood Films

However, one of his prized possessions is two Bollywood films to his credit as an actor. Out of these two, one has a brief appearance as an actor, other has him as one of the important supporting characters. He is a part of a film titled Saaz while the other one is titled Chalees Chaurasi.

Where To Watch Ustad Zakir Hussain’s Film

The Satyadev starrer Telugu action-thriller film Zebra was released on November 22, 2024. While there were a lot of expectations banking on the movie, it turned out to be a box office disaster. However, now the film is all set to be released on the OTT streaming platform.

Zebra Plot

The Satyadev starrer has the actor playing a man, namely Surya, who earns the ire of a ruthless millionaire, Adhi (Dhananjaya). This is after Surya helps his girlfriend Wathi (Priya Bhavnani Shankar) rectify a banking error by using a loophole in the system. All hell breaks loose when he is given an ultimatum to pay 5 crores in 4 days to Adhi.

When And Where To Watch Zebra Online?

According to a news report in Pinkvilla, the Satyadev starrer will be released on the OTT streaming platform, Aha Video. The film will be released on December 20, 2024. The social media page of the OTT platform announced the same by stating, “When cunning meets chaos, the stakes get deadly. Watch Zebra premieres 20th Dec only on Aha.”

Zebra Box Office

The Satyadev starrer got mixed reviews from the audience and the critics alike. While it was expected to do well at the box office, the movie failed to live up to the expectations. On its 23rd day, the movie earned 4.69 crores. The day-wise collections of the movie have also gone down drastically. After a series of flops like Krishnamma, Godfather, Godse, Gurthunda Seethakalam, and Ram Setu, this film turned out to be yet another box-office disappointment for Satyadev.

About The Movie

Apart from Satyadev, Zebra also stars Dhananjaya, Sathyaraj, Priya Bhavnani Shankar, and Amrutha Iyengar in pivotal roles. The film has been helmed by Eashvar Karthic. At the same time, the music for the film has been composed by Ravi Basrur.

Thangalaan received praise for Chiyaan Vikram’s spectacular performance, but unfortunately, it didn’t help the film gain momentum at the worldwide box office. As a result, it turned out to be an underperformer during its theatrical run. Now, after 17 weeks of delay, the film has finally been released on the OTT streaming platform Netflix.

After impressing the audience with his performance in Ponniyin Selvan 2, Vikram returned to the big screen after a gap of over a year. Also, as this Pa. Ranjith directorial was in the making for a long time and projected as a magnum opus, expectations were really high. Unfortunately, despite its share of merits, the film didn’t fetch big numbers and turned out to be a passable affair.

However, with Chiyaan Vikram’s act being lauded, Thangalaan is expected to enjoy a good share of attention on OTT, and the audience will finally be able to experience the same with its digital arrival. The film was released on Netflix today (December 10) rather unceremoniously. Vikram too refrained from announcing the arrival of the film on the OTT streaming platform on his social media handle.

Although the exact number is not known, it has been learned that the OTT giant bagged the film’s streaming rights for 35 crores. If we compare this figure with the film’s reported budget of 135 crores, the Netflix deal has helped in recovering 25.92% or 26% of the total budget.

Meanwhile, the Kollywood biggie failed to enter the 100 crore club at the worldwide box office as it ended its disastrous theatrical run. After a glorious run of Ponniyin Selvan and Ponniyin Selvan 2, this was a big setback for Chiyaan Vikram.
