Total Investment VS Returns In The First Quarter
In the first quarter, a total of890 crore was invested in 13 Hindi films, which cumulatively brought a collection of 1048 crore in total. This is higher than last year’s 943 crore cumulative collection from Hindi films in the first quarter!
Bollywood Box Office 2025
Out of the cumulative box office collection of 1034 crore from 13 films, 58% of the earnings are contributed by Vicky Kaushal! Helmed by Laxman Utekar, his Maratha warrior film Chhaava earned 613 crore at the box office single handedly! So leaving the only superhit film of 2025, the remaining 12 films earned only 435 crore at the box office!
Barring Chhaava‘s 130 crore, an investment of760 crore was made on 12 Hindi films in total, and they cumulatively earned only 435 crore in the first quarter, bringing a total loss of almost 325 crore at the box office, which is almost loss of 42% in the first quarter, and it is a huge loss!
