The Indian box office on Saturday, October 25, 2025, saw a mixed bag of performances. While new Bollywood releases “Thamma” and “Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat” are experiencing a slowdown, the Kannada blockbuster “Kantara A Legend: Chapter 1” continues its impressive run, outperforming other recent ventures. “Thamma,” starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna, showed initial promise but has seen its momentum wane. After a strong opening, its Saturday collections dipped significantly. Despite the audience appreciating the lead pair, critics suggest the film’s narrative weakness hindered its sustained appeal. “Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat,” featuring Harshvardhan Rane and Sonam Bajwa, is also facing challenges in connecting with viewers. This romantic thriller had a modest opening and has struggled to maintain its pace, with recent earnings barely covering its production costs. Its music and visual appeal have garnered mixed reactions. In stark contrast, “Kantara A Legend: Chapter 1” continues to dominate. The film’s compelling folk narrative and strong storytelling have kept audiences flocking to theaters for over three weeks. Its Saturday earnings were robust, pushing its total collection to significant heights and solidifying its position as a major box office success. Meanwhile, “Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari” is nearing the end of its theatrical run, with minimal earnings reported on Saturday.
