2025 has been a mixed bag for Bollywood — with mammoth blockbusters like Chhaava reaffirming the power of mass entertainers, and several big-budget films surprisingly underperforming despite hype (Housefull 5, Sky Force). A noticeable trend? Star power alone is no longer a guarantee. Content-driven cinema and strong word-of-mouth seem to be winning the race.

Stay tuned as we track which of the year’s upcoming releases will shake up this list in the months ahead.
