The box office on Saturday, October 25, 2025, highlighted a significant trend: the enduring popularity of “Kantara A Legend: Chapter 1” while newer Bollywood offerings struggle to maintain momentum. “Thamma,” despite its star power, has experienced a considerable drop in box office receipts. Initial audience enthusiasm appears to have waned, with reports suggesting that the film’s narrative depth is insufficient to sustain its theatrical run. The pairing of Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna garnered appreciation, but it wasn’t enough to offset critical concerns about the script. “Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat” is another film facing an uphill battle at the box office. This romantic thriller, released on October 19, saw its initial earnings decline steadily. Saturday’s figures indicate the film is barely recovering its production costs, with its music and cinematography failing to create a significant buzz. In contrast, “Kantara A Legend: Chapter 1” continues to be a box office phenomenon. The film’s powerful folk theme and gripping narrative have resonated deeply with audiences, leading to consistent theatrical attendance. Its Saturday performance was strong, adding considerably to its already impressive cumulative total. This Kannada film is a testament to the power of content-driven cinema. Meanwhile, “Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari” is approaching the end of its theatrical release, contributing only minimal amounts to the overall box office on Saturday.
