Pan-India Power Report 2025: Kantara Ch 1 Mints 223 Cr in Hindi; A Reality Check for Southern Dubs in 2025

2025 has been the year of the Pan India Reality Check. The Hindi audience has become ruthless embracing authentic rooted stories like Kantara with open arms while coldly rejecting generic mass actioners, even those starring heavyweights like Pawan Kalyan and Kamal Haasan. While Rishab Shetty emerged as the undisputed king of the Hindi box office this year, other highly anticipated projects like Lokesh Kanagaraj's Coolie and Suriya's Retro posted numbers that fell short of their astronomical pre release hype.From folklore to gangster dramas, here is the ultimate report card of how South Indian films performed in the Hindi belt this year. Movie Industry Hindi Net Collection Kantara: Chapter 1 Sandalwood ₹223.79 Cr Coolie Kollywood ₹37.23 Cr Game Changer Tollywood ₹32.93 Cr Mirai Tollywood ₹16.86 Cr Baahubali: The Epic Animation ₹6.94 Cr HIT: The Third Case Tollywood ₹4.11 Cr Kannappa Tollywood ₹3.98 Cr Lokah: Chapter 1 Mollywood ₹3.78 Cr They Call Him OG Tollywood ₹3.36 Cr L2: Empuraan Mollywood ₹2.59 Cr Thug Life Kollywood ₹1.70 Cr The Girlfriend Tollywood ₹ 0.60 Cr Madharasi Kollywood ₹0.50 Cr Retro Kollywood ₹ 0.49 Cr Daaku Maharaaj Tollywood ₹ 0.40 Cr Hari Hara Veera Mallu Tollywood ₹ 0.33 Cr Bad Girl Kollywood ₹0.06 Cr 1. Kantara:Chapter 1 Industry:Sandalwood (Kannada) Director:Rishab Shetty Star Cast:Rishab Shetty,Rukmini Vasanth
 The prequel to the 2022 divine blockbuster Kantara shattered ceilings. Delving deeper into the origins of the Panjurli Daiva during the Kadamba era, the film offered a visual spectacle that was both raw and grandiose. The Divine climax once again became a cultural talking point, driving repeat audiences in Maharashtra and the Hindi belt. It stands as the only true All Time Blockbuster from the South in Hindi this year. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) 2. Coolie Industry:Kollywood (Tamil) Director:Lokesh Kanagaraj Star Cast:Rajinikanth, Nagarjuna, Shruti Haasan, Soubin Shahir.
 The union of Thalaivar Rajinikanth and director Lokesh Kanagaraj was expected to set the screens on fire. A stylish gangster drama involving a gold-smuggling syndicate, the film had massive hype. However, the Hindi numbers (₹ 37.23 Cr) suggest it played more to the gallery of existing fans rather than breaking out to the neutral Hindi audience like Vikram or Jailer. 3.Game Changer Industry:Tollywood (Telugu) Director:S. Shankar Star Cast:Ram Charan, Kiara Advani.
 Coming off the global high of RRR, Ram Charan teamed up with the showman Shankar. While the film's political theme resonated in the South, the Hindi audience found the narrative slightly dated. ₹ 32.93 Cr is a respectable total but falls short of the expectations set for a Ram Charan and Shankar collaboration. 4.Mirai Industry:Tollywood (Telugu) Director:Karthik Ghattamaneni Star Cast:Teja Sajja, Ritika Nayak. 
The surprise package of the year. After HanuMan, Teja Sajja cemented his position with Mirai. Based on the legend of Ashoka's 9 secret books, this Super Yodha film connected well with kids and families, earning nearly ₹ 17 Cr purely on concept strength without a Tier-1 star. 5. Baahubali:The Epic Industry:Pan India (Re-release/Edit) Director:S.S. Rajamouli Star Cast:Prabhas,Anushka Shetty
 To celebrate the franchise's legacy, the makers released a special Single Film edit of the two part saga with remastered visuals.While die hard fans turned up, the ₹ 6.95 Cr collection proves that the audience prefers new content over nostalgia trips in theaters. 6. HIT:The Third Case Industry:Tollywood (Telugu) Director:Sailesh Kolanu Star Cast:Nani, Srinidhi Shetty.
 Nani entered the HIT universe as Arjun Sarkar. While the film was a critical success in Telugu, the dark, gritty thriller genre has a limited ceiling in the Hindi dubbed market unless backed by massive marketing, reflected in its niche ₹ 4.11 Cr collection. 7. Kannappa Industry:Tollywood (Telugu) Director:Mukesh Kumar Singh Star Cast:Vishnu Manchu,Preity Mukhundhan (Cameos: Prabhas, Akshay Kumar, Mohanlal).
 Despite a star-studded lineup of cameos including Prabhas and Akshay Kumar, this mythological drama starring Vishnu Manchu failed to generate buzz in the Hindi belt, collecting a meager ₹ 3.98 Cr. 8. Lokah:Chapter 1 - Chandra Industry:Mollywood(Malayalam) Director:Dominic Arun Star Cast:Kalyani Priyadarshan, Naslen, Sandy. 
Malayalam cinema's ambitious entry into the superhero genre! Starring Kalyani Priyadarshan, the film was praised for its VFX and unique world-building. For a Malayalam film without a traditional Mass Hero, earning ₹ 3.78 Cr in Hindi is a positive sign of growth. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) 9.They Call Him OG Industry:Tollywood (Telugu) Director:Sujeeth Star Cast:Pawan Kalyan, Priyanka Mohan.
 The biggest shocker of the list. Pawan Kalyan's gangster drama, despite featuring Emraan Hashmi as the antagonist, crashed in Hindi with just ₹ 3.36 Cr. It highlights that Pawan Kalyan's stardom is still strictly regional compared to peers like Prabhas or Allu Arjun. 10. L2:Empuraan Industry:Mollywood (Malayalam) Director:Prithviraj Sukumaran Star Cast:Mohanlal, Manju Warrier,Prithviraj. The sequel to Lucifer. While a massive blockbuster in Kerala, the complex political drama of Empuraan proved too dense for the mass Hindi audience, collecting just ₹ 2.59 Cr. 11. Thug Life Industry:Kollywood (Tamil) Director:Mani Ratnam Star Cast:Kamal Haasan, Trisha Krishnan,Silambarasan TR.
 The reunion of legends Mani Ratnam and Kamal Haasan after decades was a cinematic event, but sadly, only for Tamil Nadu. The Hindi version was a non-starter (₹ 1.7 Cr), proving that Class Classics rarely translate to Mass Hindi Box Office. 12.The Girlfriend
 Industry:Tollywood (Telugu)
 Director:Rahul Ravindran
 Star Cast:Rashmika Mandanna, Dheekshith Shetty.
 
A solo lead thriller by Rashmika Mandanna. While she is a National Crush, the film's niche subject matter restricted its appeal, leading to a washout in the Hindi dubbed version.
 13.Madharasi
 Director:A.R.Murugadoss
 Star Cast:Sivakarthikeyan, Vidyut Jammwal.
 
Despite being directed by A.R.Murugadoss (known for Ghajini) and starring Vidyut Jammwal (a known face in Hindi), this film was a disaster in Hindi. It seems the audience has moved past the 2000s style of commercial filmmaking.
 14.Retro Industry:Kollywood (Tamil) Director:Karthik Subbaraj Star Cast:Suriya, Pooja Hegde.
 Also known as Suriya 44, this stylish actioner by Karthik Subbaraj was expected to be Suriya's big theatrical comeback in Hindi. The shocking collection of less than ₹ 50 Lakhs indicates a complete failure in marketing or release strategy in the North. 15.Daaku Maharaaj
 Industry:Tollywood (Telugu)
 Director:Bobby Kolli
 Star Cast:Nandamuri Balakrishna, Bobby Deol

 Even the presence of Bobby Deol (fresh off Animal fame) couldn't save this Balakrishna mass entertainer in Hindi. The over the top action style of NBK clearly has zero takers in the Hindi belt in 2025.
 16. Hari Hara Veera Mallu
 Industry:Tollywood (Telugu)
 Director:Krish Jagarlamudi,Jyoti Krishna
 Star Cast:Pawan Kalyan, Bobby Deol.
 
A delayed period drama that felt stale upon arrival. With collections of just ₹33 Lakhs, it stands as a significant commercial underperformer for a star of Pawan Kalyan's stature.
 (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) 17.Bad Girl Industry:Kollywood (Tamil) Director:Varsha Bharath Star Cast:Anjali Sivaraman.
 A small budget coming of age drama produced by heavyweights like Vetrimaaran. While critically acclaimed in festivals, it was virtually non-existent at the Hindi box office. Ultimately, 2025 will be remembered as the year the Hindi market transitioned from being a star reliant territory to a landscape defined by audience discernment. The staggering gap between Kantara (₹223 Cr) and generic mass entertainers highlights a significant shift in viewer preferences. When highly anticipated projects featuring legends struggle to gain traction while a rooted folklore thriller creates history, the trend is undeniable.The era of blind loyalty to formulaic tropes is fading, making way for a new chapter of content supremacy.

Emraan Hashmi, Yami Gautam's Haq Sees Big Jump On Day 2: Heads For A Decent Weekend

Mumbai, November 8 - Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi-fronted Haq is having a good at the box office. The film, based on a historic Supreme Court judgement, seems to be striking a chord with the audience with its intense courtroom drama and compelling performance by the lead pair. Directed by Suparn Varma, Haq had a decent start domestically after it opened to approximately 1.75 crores in net collections. Though, is nowhere near Yami's last film, Article 370 (5.90 crores net), the film debuted on the expected lines for its genre and subject. The movie received a rousing reception from critics with high praise towards the story and performance of Yami and Emraan. The audience also seems to be on the same page, as the second day is almost 100% with double the collection of day 1. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The growth on the second day is a heartening sign for the film, which is heavily reliant on wom. With a 2-day total of 5+ crores net, Haq is looking at nearly double-digit opening weekend, which is decent given the limited expectations for it. If the initial trend is any indication, Haq is in for a good run at the domestic box office. The WOM is expected to come in handy during the weekdays, as a decent hold through the week will put it on course for a good weekend. Still a long way to go, but the movie's showing positive signs.

Emraan Hashmi Yami Gautam starrer Haq clears censor boards worldwide ahead of release

Junglee Pictures’ upcoming drama Haq, headlined by Emraan Hashmi and Yami Gautam Dhar, has smoothly crossed one of the biggest pre-release checkpoints — global censor clearances. The film, inspired by the historic Shah Bano legal case, is set for release on 7 November 2025 and arrives with strong attention on its sensitive legal-drama theme.. As noted by trade analyst Taran Adarsh, these are the certification milestones. India – Certified UA (13+) by the CBFC on 28 October 2025 UAE – Cleared with no cuts, rated 15+ Also cleared in the UK, Australia and New Zealand 'HAQ' CLEARED IN INDIA, UAE, UK, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND... #JungleePictures' #Haq – starring #EmraanHashmi and #YamiGautamDhar – has received censor clearance in #India, #UAE, #UK, #Australia, and #NewZealand.⭐️ #India: Certified UA 13+ by CBFC on 28 Oct 2025.⭐️ #UAE:… pic.twitter.com/CaVeom53DY— taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) November 4, 2025 The UAE clearance — without any edits — has drawn attention, especially given the film’s social and religious sensitivity. Yami Gautam recently highlighted that passing scrutiny in the UAE signals the film’s balanced, non-provocative approach to its subject.“If there are no problems there, it means this film isn’t here to antagonise any faith,” Yami noted in a recent interaction. Haq revisits the Shah Bano landmark case, one of India’s most pivotal legal battles around women’s rights and religious law. With themes rooted in justice, faith, and societal reform, the film walks a fine line — and its clean international clearances suggest a respectful treatment of the narrative. Director Suparn Varma reportedly focuses on courtroom intensity, personal trauma, and ethical debate rather than sensationalism — a choice that seems to have helped the film earn regulatory approvals smoothly. While the film has been cleared, controversy hasn’t stayed far. Shah Bano’s daughter reportedly issued a legal notice objecting to the use of her mother’s story without consent. As of now, the film’s release schedule remains unaffected. With a UA in India — allowing teenagers to watch with guidance — and 15+ in UAE, the film is positioned for a wide audience.Haq now walks into release week with the credibility of global approvals, a quietly confident cast, and a topic that continues to resonate decades later. If early signals are anything to go by, this courtroom drama may well spark conversations not just in theatres, but beyond them.

Mumbai, October 28 - After winning accolades and high praise for Article 370 last year, actress Yami Gautam returns with another real-life based film Haq, co-starring Emraan Hashmi. Written by Reshu Nath and directed by Suparn S Varma, the film also stars Vartika Singh, Danish Husain, Sheeba Chadha and Aseem Hattangady in pivotal roles. The trailer of Haq, which is inspired by the Supreme Court's 1985 historical judgement in the case of Mohd. Ahmed Khan vs. Shah Bano Begum was launched on October 27. The trailer has proved to be a hype raiser and promises another intense courtroom drama. The trailer introduces Yami Gautam as Shazia Bano, who takes her husband, Abbas (Emraan Hashmi), a prominent lawyer, to court after he abandons her and their children and marries another woman. The relationship between the two is briefly shown, and how Abbas verbally pronounces divorce to Shazia, denying her any maintenance after paying her some amount of money.

Haq is a fictionalised and dramatised version of events stated in the book titled Bano: Bharat ki Beti, written by Jigna Vora, as per the makers. Produced by Baweja Studios, Junglee Pictures, and Insomnia Films, the movie is scheduled to release on November 7. Stay tuned...
