一 | (ECNS) -- China's 2026 summer box office has exceeded 8.5 billion yuan ($1.18 billion), with annual revenue surpassing 24.2 billion yuan, according to online ticketing platforms. More than 120 Chinese and overseas films across genres have been released this season, with daily box office revenue surpassing 100 million yuan for a month. Domestic animated hit All Wishes Come True has led the year’s animation chart with over 1.4 billion yuan in ticket sales. Spider Man: Brand New Day ranked third after opening in Chinese mainland cinemas two days ahead of its North American release. Domestic comedy Johnny Keep Walking! and other films have also contributed to the diverse lineup of the summer season. The upcoming film Once Upon a Time in the Middle East has earned more than 80 million yuan in presales, whose release is scheduled on Tuesday. More Chinese and overseas films, including The Odyssey, are expected to drive further growth in the summer box office. By last Sunday, summer screenings had exceeded 30.22 million, up 6.3% year on year, while moviegoers surpassed 230 million, up 5%. The average ticket price dropped 3.2% year on year to 36.3 yuan, the lowest level for a summer movie season in five years. According to the China Film Administration, 363 cinemas and 2,215 screens were added nationwide in the first seven months of 2026, expanding access and making moviegoing part of the “15 minute convenience life circle.” (By Helen Mo, intern Liu Shuangjing) 。 Richa Chadha has shared one of her most intimate, candid and honest reflections to date. She recently took to Instagram to open up about the emotional, physical and professional upheavals she has navigated since becoming a mother. In a heartfelt post sharing her thoughts and images, the actor spoke openly for the first time about her long road to recovery and her return to work after nearly two years. Richa revealed that though she had hoped to resume work earlier, her body and mind simply weren’t ready. The transition into motherhood brought with it a long, often overwhelming period of mental adjustment. She wrote about the disorienting feeling of losing a sense of who she was before childbirth, and the immense support required for a new mother to rediscover her footing. “Mommy doesn’t remember who she was before the baby was born,” she admitted, acknowledging that the mental recovery took far longer than she ever expected. But her note extended leaps and bounds beyond personal transformation. Richa also shed light on painful professional experiences she endured during one of the most vulnerable phases of her life. Along those lines, she spoke up about betrayal and a glaring lack of ethics in parts of the industry. She described encountering individuals driven by insecurity and scarcity, whose behaviour drained joy and trust. While she emphasised forgiveness, she made it clear she would not forget the cruelty she witnessed.

Richa expressed a longing for the simplicity of early social media. A time when platforms were not designed around branding, virality, or monetised pain. She questioned why conversations about mental health or postpartum issues must be tied to performative displays or commercial intent. Ending her note with characteristic wit, she wrote, “I am already RICHa,” asserting that visibility does not equal worth, and that she refuses to be “bikau” in a world increasingly driven by spectacle.Also Read: Priyanka Chopra, Richa Chadha, Zoya Akhtar & More Congratulate Mira Nair on Zohran Mamdani’s Win。
