From Kaabil to Fighter, Hrithik Roshan's Box Office Journey In The Last Decade — A Road to War 2

Mumbai, August 14 - From the emotional depth of Kaabil to the mathematical genius of Super 30, the high-octane thrills of War, the layered storytelling of Vikram Vedha, and the groundbreaking aerial spectacle of Fighter, Hrithik Roshan's filmography over the past decade showcases a rare blend of versatility and star power. Each project has expanded his range — from intense drama to big-budget action — while strengthening his position as one of Indian cinema's most bankable and ambitious actors. With War 2 on the horizon, uniting him with director Ayan Mukerji in YRF's spy universe, the stage is set for yet another milestone in a career that continues to balance mass appeal with memorable performances. ## Kaabil (2017) ## Directed by Sanjay Gupta and produced by Rakesh Roshan, Kaabil is a romantic action thriller starring Hrithik Roshan and Yami Gautam, alongside Ronit Roy, Rohit Roy, and Narendra Jha. It tells the story of a visually impaired couple whose life is shattered after Supriya is assaulted; when the legal system fails them, Rohan meticulously hunts down those responsible. Hrithik prepared for the role by isolating himself for days to inhabit the character’s mindset. ## Released in early 2017, the film drew praise for Hrithik's blend of vulnerability and vengeance, with Rajesh Roshan’s music and Salim–Sulaiman’s background score amplifying the emotional intensity. Notably, on February 2, 2017, Kaabil became the first Indian film to release in Pakistan after the lifting of the ban on Indian films following the 2016 Uri attack. In a gesture of admiration, Rakesh Roshan arranged a special screening of Kaabil for the legendary actor Rajinikanth, who praised both the trailer and Hrithik’s performance. At the box office, it recorded ₹104.34 crore India net, ₹145.8 crore India gross, and ₹32.3 crore overseas, for a worldwide total of ₹178.1 crore. ## Super 30 (2019) ## Directed by Vikas Bahl and written by Sanjeev Dutta, this biographical drama stars Hrithik Roshan as mathematician Anand Kumar, alongside Mrunal Thakur, Nandish Sandhu, and Pankaj Tripathi. It was the last movie produced by Phantom Films before the company disbanded amid internal controversies. The film tells the true story of Anand Kumar’s program training 30 underprivileged students for the IIT entrance exam. ## It was filmed in Patna-inspired sets at Ramnagar Fort and at Banaras Hindu University, the first Hindi film to shoot there. Over 15,000 young actors were auditioned to portray the students. Just three days after its release, Super 30 was declared tax-free in Bihar, a gesture aimed at promoting its educational message. Subsequently, a record eight Indian states granted tax-free status—an exceptional feat for a commercial Bollywood film. The film grossed over ₹147.39 crore in India net, ₹171 crore in India gross, and ₹39 crore overseas, for a worldwide total of ₹210 crore, becoming the 12th highest-grossing Hindi film of 2019. ## War (2019) ## A Yash Raj Films production directed by Siddharth Anand, this action spectacle stars Hrithik Roshan as Kabir and Tiger Shroff as Khalid, with Vaani Kapoor, Ashutosh Rana, and Anupriya Goenka in supporting roles. The story follows Khalid, a loyal soldier, tasked with eliminating his former mentor Kabir, who has gone rogue. War was one of the most expensive Indian films ever made, featuring globe-trotting chase sequences and razor-sharp action that stood toe-to-toe with Hollywood standards. ## Filmed across India and exotic locations in Portugal, Italy, Finland, Sweden, Georgia, and Australia, it famously became the first Indian film to shoot an action climax on the Arctic Circle, requiring a five-month wait for shooting permission. The production crew took three months to prep, and actual filming lasted six days. The movie emerged as the biggest blockbuster of the lot with ₹318.01 crore India net, ₹375 crore India gross, ₹96 crore overseas, and a worldwide total of ₹471 crore, making it the highest-grossing Bollywood film of 2019, noted for its breathtaking stunts, global scale, and slick choreography. ## Vikram Vedha (2022) ## This Hindi remake of the acclaimed Tamil film is directed by Pushkar–Gayathri and stars Hrithik Roshan as gangster Vedha and Saif Ali Khan as police officer Vikram, with Radhika Apte, Rohit Saraf, Yogita Bihani, and Sharib Hashmi in pivotal roles. The narrative follows Vikram’s pursuit of Vedha, who surrenders voluntarily and narrates morally complex stories that challenge Vikram’s black-and-white worldview. Shot across Abu Dhabi and Lucknow, the film blends neo-noir and thriller elements, with early casting rumours once linking Shah Rukh Khan to Vedha’s role. The movie fared moderately at the box office by wrapping its theatrical run with an India net collection of ₹78.90 Cr, an India gross collection of ₹93.10 Cr, and an overseas total of ₹42.34 Cr, resulting in a worldwide cumulative of ₹135.44 Cr. ## Fighter (2024) ## Starring Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone and Anil Kapoor, along with Karan Singh Grover, Akshay Oberoi, and Rishabh Sawhney, the film follows an elite Indian Air Force squadron, "Air Dragons", assembled to counter a terrorist threat led by Azhar Akhtar. Mixing high-octane aerial combat with personal arcs and romance. The project was first revealed by Hrithik Roshan himself on his birthday, 10 January 2021, building early buzz. Directed by Siddharth Anand, Blending themes of patriotism and camaraderie, the film, originally slated for September 2022, was released on Republic Day 2024, marking Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone’s first on-screen pairing in a feature film and showcasing some of the most ambitious VFX-driven aerial sequences ever seen in Indian cinema. ## The film premiered on Republic Day weekend (25 January 2024), marking Deepika Padukone’s fourth release aligned with the national celebration—after Race 2 (2013), Padmaavat (2018), and Pathaan (2023). The movie solidified the third collaboration between Hrithik Roshan and director Siddharth Anand, each instalment spaced exactly five years apart: Bang Bang! (2014), War (2019), and now Fighter (2024). Fighter earned ₹212.75 crore in India net, ₹255 crore India gross, and ₹104 crore overseas, bringing its worldwide total to ₹359 crore. ## War 2 (2025) ## War 2 is the official sequel to the 2019 blockbuster War and the sixth instalment in the Yash Raj Films (YRF) Spy Universe. Directed by Ayan Mukerji and produced by Aditya Chopra, the film marked a notable shift in creative direction from the original's director, Siddharth Anand. Filming commenced in early 2024, covering multiple countries including Spain, Italy, Abu Dhabi, Japan, Russia, and India, with a projected budget nearing ₹400 crores. War 2 stakes its claim as one of the most expensive Indian spy thrillers ever made. The teaser dropped on Jr NTR’s birthday, highlighting a high-voltage face-off between Hrithik and Jr NTR, garnering significant social media buzz. The release also represented a cultural moment: not just Jr NTR's Bollywood debut but also a symbolic introduction of Hrithik to Telugu audiences.## Stay tuned...

Ahaan Pandey, Aneet Padda's Saiyaara Hits 300 Crore India Net; Beats Salman Khan's Sultan and Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone's Padmaavat

Mumbai, August 5 - Yash Raj Films' romantic blockbuster Saiyaara, starring debutantes Ahaan Pandey and Aneet Padda, has achieved a historic milestone by crossing 300 crores net collection at the domestic box office, becoming the first Indian love story to enter the coveted club. ## Directed by Mohit Suri, the film has achieved the milestone on its 18th day (third Monday) with an approximate collection of 2.50 crores. This pushed the film's total India net to around 302.25 crores. With this feat, Saiyaara has now become the 18th Hindi-language film to cross 300 crores net in India.## Saiyaara has surpassed the lifetime India net collections of superstar Salman Khan's Sultan (300.45 crores) and Sanjay Leela Bhansali's epic Padmaavat (302.15 crores), which featured Shahid Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, and Deepika Padukone. On its 19th day, it will go past War 2 (303.34 crores), starring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, to become the 15th biggest Hindi net grosser of all time. ## Despite its phenomenal success, Saiyaara has seen a dip in momentum due to the release of new films and the ongoing dominance of the animated epic Mahavatar Narsimha. These factors have led to a reduction in its show count, making its entry into the 400 crore club highly unlikely. However, the film still has an outside chance of finishing with over 350 crores net in India. ## If Saiyaara does manage to touch or cross the 350 crore mark, it will solidify its place as the 11th biggest Hindi net-grosser ever — a landmark achievement for a film led by two newcomers and driven by youthful romance. The success story of Saiyaara is not only a major box office triumph for YRF but also a significant turning point for fresh talent in Bollywood. ## Stay tuned...

Housefull 5 Five-Week Box Office Collection: To Beat Bajirao Mastani and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 To Enter Top 50 Highest Net-Grossing Hindi Movie List?

Mumbai, July 11 - Akshay Kumar's comedy thriller Housefull 5 has completed five weeks at the box office. Despite the mixed reception, the movie has managed to earn a decent success. It has emerged as the biggest grosser for Akshay Kumar since Sooryavanshi (2021) at the global box office. ## At one point, it looked like Housefull 5 would be able to outgross Sooryavanshi's final worldwide gross of 293 crores, but due to competition and mixed word of mouth, the pace got slow at the box office. It will finish as the second biggest grosser for the superstar in the post-pandemic world, just short of Sooryavanshi at around 290 crores. ## Nonetheless, Housefull 5 has an outside chance to beat Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and Priyanka Chopra's Bajirao Mastani (184.30 crores net) and Kartik Aaryan's Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (184.32 crores net) at the domestic box office to enter the top 50 biggest Hindi net grosser list. The movie needs another 1 crore net to surpass these two films, which looks extremely difficult, but might get there if it manages to stay in theatres for a few more weeks on limited theatres. In terms of India gross collection, Bajirao Mastani will remain ahead as tax rates were much higher when it was released in 2015. ## How much did Housefull 5 earn at the Indian box office in 5 weeks (35 days)? ## Housefull 5 is nearing its box office journey as it earned around 35 lakh in its 5th week, a massive drop of around 85% from the last week. It has earned approximately 183.30 crores net collection (218.35 crores gross) at the domestic box office and around 289 crores worldwide after 5 weeks. ## As said, the movie will finish below the 290 crores gross mark globally, as the second biggest Bollywood grosser of the year behind Chhaava (808 crores worldwide). With this collection, HF5 could have emerged as a box office hit, but the cost involved was much higher than any other comedy entertainer. ## Stay tuned...

The dynamics of Rashmika and Allu will be very different from what they shared in the Pushpa films. ## It is said that Rashmika has already done her look test and body scan with Atlee in LA, and the pre-production work for her character is underway. Set in a parallel universe, AA22xA6 will feature some of the biggest male and female actors of Indian cinema. ## The shoot of this Sun Pictures' production has already begun recently, and the makers are expected to complete it by the second half of 2026, with post-production going on simultaneously.

Deepika Padukone To Receive A Star On Hollywood Walk of Fame; First Indian Citizen To Get The Honour

Mumbai, July 3 - In a historic recognition, star Indian actress Deepika Padukone is set to be honoured with a Star on the prestigious Hollywood Walk of Fame, Class of 2026. The announcement was made on Wednesday evening via a livestream by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce's selection panel. ## Padukone joins an illustrious list of 35 honourees this year, which includes acclaimed Hollywood names such as Emily Blunt, Rami Malek, Timothée Chalamet, Rachel McAdams, Stanley Tucci, and Demi Moore, among others. ## While Deepika becomes the first Indian citizen to receive this honour, she is not the first person of Indian origin. The late Sabu Dastagir, born in Mysore in 1924, was the first Indian to be inducted into the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1960. Discovered by director Robert Flaherty, Sabu rose to fame with the 1937 film Elephant Boy, and after taking American citizenship in 1944, he went on to star in many successful Hollywood productions. ## Deepika Padukone's induction marks a major milestone in her international career, further cementing her status as a global ambassador for Indian cinema. From appearing at major film festivals to unveiling the FIFA World Cup trophy in Qatar in 2022, the actress continues to represent India on the world stage. ## On the professional front, Deepika is gearing up for two high-profile releases next year, Shah Rukh Khan's "King" and the tentatively titled "AA22xA6" featuring Allu Arjun. ## Stay tuned...

Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga Hits Out At 'Dirty PR Games' After Deepika Padukone's Exit From 'Spirit'

Hyderabad, May 27 - Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga is once again in the media headlines after a fiery social media post, slamming the dirty PR games in the industry against him and his films. The post came after it was reported that actress Deepika Padukone had exited Vanga's next film Spirit and was replaced by Tripti Dimri for the same. ## Going by Vanga's post, it seems that some of the key details of the movie were leaked to the media and his post indirectly (without naming) slammed Deepika Padukone for breaching the code of trust. "When I narrate a story to an actor, I place 100% faith. There is an unsaid NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) between us. But by doing this, you've 'DISCLOSED' the person that you are", the filmmaker said. ## Further, the Animal director said that for him, filmmaking is everything, which the ousted actor will never understand. He also seemingly taunts Deepika to leak the full story of the film next time, because he doesn't care. ## "Putting down a Younger actor and ousting my story? Is this what your feminism stands for? As a filmmaker, I put years of hard work behind my craft & for me, filmmaking is everything. You didn't get it. You won't get it. You will never get it. Aisa karo.... Agli baar poori kahani bolna... kyunki mujhe jarra bhi farak nahi padtha", he said. ## When I narrate a story to an actor, I place 100% faith.
