Chhaava, Saiyaara, and Coolie emerge as 2025’s Rs 500 Crore club leaders

The Indian box office in 2025 has already crowned its big winners, and three films have pulled ahead with staggering collections. Topping the list is Chhaava with a record-breaking Rs 807 crore, followed by Saiyaara at Rs 581 crore, and Coolie with Rs 512 crore. Together, they mark the defining trio of blockbusters this year, each representing a different flavor of cinema that captured mass attention.

Chhaava: The Unstoppable Force

Chhaava stands tall at the number one spot. With its mix of scale, grit, and powerful storytelling, the film clearly struck a chord with audiences nationwide. The visuals of its leading man in a raw, commanding avatar became symbolic of the film’s appeal. Its dominance across single screens and multiplexes shows how the film successfully bridged audiences of all kinds.

Saiyaara: Youth and Romance at the Helm

At number two is Saiyaara, collecting an impressive Rs 581 crore. Unlike the epic action of Chhaava, this film leaned into youthful energy and heartfelt romance. The bike-riding duo at the center of its promotions became a cultural talking point, giving fans a blend of fresh music, chemistry, and emotion. Its commercial success proves that romance, when packaged right, still thrives in the age of action-heavy blockbusters.

Coolie: Nostalgia Meets Stardom

Coolie, sitting at the third spot with Rs 512 crore, showcased how nostalgia and star power can still pull in huge numbers. The film revived the iconic “Coolie” tag while placing it in a modern setting. Its charismatic lead, with larger-than-life swag, made audiences relive the magic while enjoying a contemporary twist. The film’s box office run is a testament to how legacy characters, when reimagined well, can still dominate.
