Finally the battle for No 1 spot is over as Todd Phillips directorial film 'Joker' has bagged the position.

The R-rated comic-book hit regained the top spot at the weekend box office in its fourth week of release, narrowly surpassing 'Maleficent: Mistress of Evil.' The Warner Bros.' sensation, featuring Joaquin Phoenix, raked in USD 18.9 million over the weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday, reported People magazine.
