How PVR INOX made profits in Q2FY26?
The company, in a release, said that the strong momentum of Q1 accelerated in Q2, making the first half of FY26 one of the most remarkable periods in recent times.
The Indian box office grew 15% year-on-year in H1, driven not by a few mega blockbusters but by a steady and diverse slate of films across languages and scales.
In Q2 alone, 12 films crossed the ₹Rs 100 crore mark, taking the H1 total to 22 — the highest post-Covid.
Which films performed at the box office?
There was a turnaround in Hindi cinema this year. A consistent release calendar and strong content have kept audiences engaged. Blockbusters like ‘Saiyaara’ with a business of Rs 400 crore and Mahavatar Narsimha at over Rs 300 crore highlight how quality content is driving demand, while star-led films such as War 2 and Jolly LLB 3 have also delivered strong results, the company said.
This balance between content-driven successes and marquee star led movies signals a more sustainable, structural recovery for the industry and strengthens the long-term growth outlook.
