Rajkummar Rao is on cloud nine after back-to-back successes with Stree 2, Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video, and Bhool Chuk Maaf. He’s coming up along with his next big-screen release, Maalik, tomorrow (July 11), and all eyes are on how the film opens on the Indian box office. Going by the present buzz, it’s heading for a slow start, and the gathering is predicted to be much lower than his last theatrical release, Bhool Chuk Maaf. But will it have the option to enter the highest 10 Bollywood openers of 2025? Let’s discover!
Didn’t construct the required buzz
Directed by Pulkit, the Bollywood motion thriller garnered good traction with its entertaining trailer, but afterwards, it did not keep the momentum intact. Apart from the trailer, other promotional assets couldn’t generate the required buzz. In consequence, the film is now heading for a day 1 collection lower than expected.
Maalik is more likely to miss an entry into the highest 10 Bollywood openers of 2025
In the current situation, it looks like Maalik won’t have the option to even touch the 5 crore mark, which is a bit disappointing. Since Rajkummar Rao is in top form, one expected the film to open well on the Indian box office, but it surely won’t occur now. His last release, Bhool Chuk Maaf, earned 7.2 crores on day 1, and his upcoming film is more likely to miss it by a margin of greater than 2 crores.
To enter the highest 10 Bollywood openers of 2025, Maalik must beat Shahid Kapoor’s Deva (5.78 crores), which looks difficult.
Take a have a look at the highest 10 Bollywood openers of 2025 (net collection):
- Chhaava – 33.10 crores
- Sikandar – 30.06 crores
- Housefull 5 – 24.35 crores
- Raid 2 – 19.71 crores
- Sky Force – 15.30 crores
- Sitaare Zameen Par – 10.70 crores
- Jaat – 9.62 crores
- Kesari Chapter 2 – 7.84 crores
- Bhool Chuk Maaf – 7.20 crores
- Deva – 5.78 crores
