Viineet Kumar Singh Of Chhaava Fame Beats Vicky Kaushal, Akshay Kumar, Khans At 2025 Box-Office
From Chhaava to Jaat, Viineet Kumar Singh leads 2025's box office race with ₹932.32 crore, surpassing top stars like Vicky Kaushal and Akshay Kumar in a cinematic shake-up. The year 2025 is shaping up to be a landmark one at the Bollywood box office—but not in the way many expected. While A-list heavyweights like Akshay Kumar, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, and Ajay Devgn continue to draw crowds, it is Viineet Kumar Singh who has emerged as the undisputed leader in terms of box office collections so far this year. With a total of ₹932.32 crore across three theatrical releases, Singh has rewritten the rules of stardom and proven that performance-driven storytelling can trump legacy and lineage in today's cinematic landscape. Viineet's monumental rise has been spearheaded by the roaring success of Chhaava, a historical epic that has taken the nation by storm. The film alone accounts for ₹807.88 crore of his total, making it one of the highest-grossing films of the year. But Viineet's dominance doesn't stop there. His gritty role in Jaat added another ₹118.36 crore to his tally, while Superboys of Malegaon, a smaller but well-received film, contributed ₹6.11 crore, rounding out an exceptional year for the actor. Hot on his heels is Vicky Kaushal, who also starred in Chhaava and matched the film's ₹807.88 crore take. The film's dual lead structure has worked immensely in both actors' favor, and Vicky's nuanced performance has only cemented his status as a bankable and respected star. Though he trails Viineet in total box office earnings for the year, Kaushal remains a vital part of Bollywood's evolving new guard. In third place is Akshay Kumar, whose remarkable consistency continues to pay dividends. With four releases this year—Housefull 5, Kesari Chapter 2, Sky Force, and Kannappa—Akshay has amassed a formidable ₹623.95 crore at the box office. While none of the films individually hit the astronomical numbers of Chhaava, their combined strength has kept Kumar firmly in the top three and demonstrated his unparalleled mass appeal. Aamir Khan, known for his selective and impactful filmography, occupies the fourth spot with Sitaare Zameen Par bringing in ₹245.90 crore. As a spiritual successor to Taare Zameen Par, the film has resonated with both critics and audiences, further solidifying Aamir's reputation for delivering emotionally stirring cinema. Ajay Devgn follows closely behind at number five, thanks to his two releases—Raid 2 and Azaad—which together earned ₹245.46 crore. His portrayal of tough, principled characters continues to draw loyal audiences, even as newer actors are making their presence felt. Rounding out the list is Salman Khan, whose much-anticipated actioner Sikandar grossed ₹184.6 crore. While this is lower than his usual blockbuster numbers, Salman remains a strong player at the box office and a perennial favorite among his fans.
