This is Salman Khan's biggest flop film despite earning Rs 200 crore, even Sohail Khan couldn't save it; Movie is…
Whether Salman Khan's films are hits or flops, it doesn't affect his stardom. Even his flop films easily earn over Rs 100 crore. The film we're talking about also earned more than Rs 200 crore at the box office. However, despite that, it couldn't be considered a success because its budget was also very high. Along with Salman, his younger brother Sohail Khan also played an important role in the film. The movie we're talking about is Tubelight . However, Salman and Sohail's movie failed to shine at the box office. Its earnings were barely close to its budget. What was the budget of Tubelight movie? Tubelight was released on 23rd June 2017 and was directed by Kabir Khan. The film had a budget of Rs 100 crore. While Salman Khan played the character named Laxman, Sohail Khan portrayed Bharat. The film also featured actors like Om Puri, Amit Singh, Mohammad Zeeshan Ayub, Yashpal Sharma, and Brijendra Kala. How much did the film Tubelight earn? The 2-hour 50-minute movie managed to recover its budget in India but was not considered a box office hit. It collected Rs 119 crore domestically and earned Rs 212 crore worldwide. However, due to its relatively low collection compared to expectations, the film was considered average. On the work front, Salman Khan was last seen on the big screen in Sikander. This film was released worldwide on the occasion of Eid in March. But Sikandar did not succeed in winning the hearts of the audience. It did a business of more than Rs 100 crore, but still the audience had to face disappointment. Now, Khan will be seen in the film Battle of Galwan. This film will be based on the clash between the Indian and Chinese armies. Chitrangada Singh will also be seen in the film being directed by Apoorva Lakhia. The shooting of the movie will start in August.

India's highest-grosser of 2025: Only film to cross ₹250 cr mark so far, ran 50+ days with 24-hour shows in theatres
2025 began with chatter around a dull phase for the Indian film industry, as several star-studded films featuring the likes of Salman Khan, Kamal Haasan, Ram Charan, Kangana Ranaut, and Shahid Kapoor failed to pull audiences to theatres. However, defying those predictions, a new report reveals that the Indian box office collected a staggering ₹ 5,723 crore in the first half of 2025, marking a 14% year-on-year growth. While several underdog films emerged as surprise hits at the ticket window, one film stands out as the highest-grossing Indian film of the year so far — Chhaava. This film, despite being mired in controversy, continued its theatrical run for nearly two months. Its success was so massive that the Hindi film was eventually dubbed and released in Telugu as well. It also had 24-hour running shows owing to its demand among the audience. India's highest-grosser of 2025 so far is Chhaava. Chhaava stars Vicky Kaushal in the lead as Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj. It also features Rashmika Mandanna and Akshaye Khanna. The film is based on the life of Sambhaji Maharaj, the second ruler of the Maratha Empire. According to the latest India Box Office Report: Jan–Jun 2025 by Ormax Media, Chhaava emerged as the winner of this year at the box office, earning ₹ 693 crore. In total, 17 films crossed the ₹ 100 crore mark at the Indian box office between January and June this year. However, Chhaava is the only film to cross the ₹ 250 crore mark within the timeline. Coming in next on the list is the Telugu-language film Sankranthiki Vasthunam, headlined by Daggubati Venkatesh, which recorded impressive nationwide earnings of ₹ 222 crore. Sitaare Zameen Par ( ₹ 201 crore) Housefull 5 ( ₹ 200 crore) Good Bad Ugly ( ₹ 183 crore) Game Changer ( ₹ 153 crore) L2: Empuraan ( ₹ 126 crore) June alone added over ₹ 900 crore to the year's box office total. 'The cumulative box office for Jan–Jun releases stands at ₹ 5,723 crore, which is 14 per cent higher than the same period in 2024 and just ₹ 12 crore short of the 2022 record for Jan–Jun box office,' the report mentioned. Coming to the success of Chhaava, the Vicky Kaushal film released on February 14, 2025. The film continued to run in theatres until March 21, 2025, marking its 36th day. As per multiple reports, the film held 24-hour screenings in Maharashtra due to high demand. Reportedly, 6 am and midnight shows were added for the film right after its release, recording about 97% occupancy. A little less than a month after its release, Chhaava also released a Telugu dubbed version in theatres to keep up with the demand. Later, the film made its OTT debut on Netflix on April 11.
