Mumbai: Akshay Kumar’s ‘Good Newwz’, which also stars Kareena Kapoor, Kiara Advani and Diljit Dosanjh, has become his sixth consecutive film to cross ₹100 crores at the box office.
The film saw a huge jump on January 1 with collections of Rs 22.50 crore. It now stands at a total of Rs 117 crore.
“#GoodNewwz is 100 Not Out…Total: ₹117.10 cr,” trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted. ‘Housefull 4’, ‘Mission Mangal’, ‘Kesari’, ‘Gold’ and ‘Housefull 3’ were his last releases to cross ₹100 crore box office mark.

Good Newwz, however, marks Akshay’s fifth consecutive film to achieve the feat (including the 2018 film Gold). The actor had an extended cameo in the 2017 film Taapsee Pannu titled Shabana, which wrapped in Rs 36 crore. His 2018 film Padman, which received the National Film Award for Best Film on Other Social Issues, also failed to cross the mark with a collection of Rs 81.82 crore.
The film garnered a positive response in the overseas market as well with collections of over Rs 34.52 crore. Sharing the overseas collections of the film, Taran wrote on Twitter, “Good Newwz – Overseas – Total till Tue [31 Dec 2019]: $ 4.84 million [Rs 34.52 cr]… Key markets…USA + Canada: $ 2.30 mn, UAE + GCC: $ 798k, UK: $ 554k and Australia NZ Fiji: $ 695k.”
The film is a goof-up drama as the two couples take the IVF route to become parents but things do not go as planned.
