The spiritual action drama acted and directed by Rishab Shetty, Kantara Chapter 1, is breaking many records with each passing day, and lately the film has overtaken Bollywood’s blockbuster, Saiyaara, and has become the Top 2 film at the 2025 box office.
Chhaava, with 800 Cr gross collections; Saiyaara, with 565 Cr gross; and Coolie, with 520 Cr gross, are the top 3 grossers of Indian cinema in 2025 before the Kantara prequel’s release.
For 10 days, Kantara Chapter 1 has broken many records, and with 550 Cr+ gross collections, it crossed Coolie’s lifetime collections yesterday, and today the film surpasses Saiyaara’s full run collections, claiming the 2nd biggest grosser spot of the year.
By today, the film will be in the range of 600 Cr. From tomorrow, the film needs to collect 200 Cr+ gross to reach the no. 1 position, and we should wait and see whether Kantara’s prequel can claim the no. 1 position.
If Rishab Shetty’s spiritual action drama can achieve the no. 1 place, then it will settle as the no. 1 for 2025, as there is no massive film in the rest of this year.
