Gippy Grewal starrer Akaal is close to concluding its run at the Indian box office. It is currently the highest-grossing Punjabi film of 2025, but the buzz has dried down. Unfortunately, the historical war drama will not be able to attain the ‘success’ tag in its lifetime. Scroll below for day 14 collections!
Decent hold despite mid-week blues
Since the initiation of the regular working days of the second week, box office collections have dropped by over 50%. On the second Monday, 16 lakhs were added to the kitty. Akaal maintained a decent hold, garnering 17 lakhs on Tuesday. As per Sacnilk, it earned 16 lakhs again on day 14.
Most contributions are from the Punjabi belt, while the run has long ended in Hindi. The 14-day total at the Indian box office stands at 6.99 crore net. Including taxes, the gross total comes to 8.24 crores.
Akaal had recently surpassed Badnaam (3.95 crores) to become the highest-grossing Punjabi film of 2025. In 14 days, it has accumulated almost 77% higher earnings than Jai Randhawa & Jasmin Bhasin‘s film.
Will not be able to recover 100% budget!
As per multiple reports, Gippy Grewal’s directorial is made on a decent budget of 10 crores. It may be the #1 Punjabi grosser of 2025 but is yet to recover around 30% of the total cost. Given the collections have already dropped way below the 50 lakh mark, the ‘success’ tag has now slipped out of hands.
