For Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, 2025 was a year of volume without victory. The studio managed to put up respectable aggregate numbers across India and overseas, but the verdict mix makes one thing clear: the slate didn’t convert scale into clean wins. In India, NGE’s three releases delivered a combined Rs. 311.57 crore nett. The biggest contributor was Housefull 5, which collected Rs. 160.72 crore nett and ended with an Average verdict, even while ranking as the 9th highest Hindi grosser of 2025. That positioning sums up the film’s trajectory perfectly – solid visibility, decent reach, but not the kind of outcome a franchise of this size typically aimed for. The other two films pulled the report card down sharply. Sikandar collected Rs. 103.45 crore nett but was declared a Disaster, while Baaghi 4 finished at Rs. 47.40 crore nett with a Flop verdict, making it a rough year in terms of success ratio.
Overseas, however, the numbers were noticeably healthier than the domestic verdicts suggest. Housefull 5 grossed $6 million, ranking as the 7th highest overseas grosser of 2025, while Sikandar surprisingly went a notch higher at $6.316 million, the 6th highest of the year. Baaghi 4 added $1.13 million, taking NGE’s total overseas gross to $13.446 million. The takeaway here is straightforward: NGE’s brand and casting still trigger overseas traction, even when the domestic narrative turns unfavorable.
Worldwide, the totals look sturdy but again, the split tells the real story. Housefull 5 led with Rs. 242.8 crore worldwide, ranking as the 7th highest worldwide grosser of 2025, a strong standing for visibility, but its Average verdict paints that recovery math didn’t match the franchise expectations. Sikandar posted Rs. 176.18 crore worldwide, while Baaghi 4 ended at Rs. 66.39 crore worldwide. Overall, NGE’s 2025 worldwide total stood at Rs. 485.37 crore – a decent box office for a three-film year, yet one that comes with a clear asterisk: the studio got average numbers, but not enough clean winners.
The bottom line is blunt. NGE remains a box office force in terms of reach, but 2025 exposed a problem that’s becoming increasingly common for big commercial banners: headline grosses don’t automatically translate into hit outcomes when budgets, marketing spends, and expectations are priced for a different era. Housefull 5 kept the studio in the conversation and prevented the year from looking grim, but with a Disaster and a Flop alongside an Average, the report card reads less like domination and more like a warning: the next slate needs sharper cost discipline, clearer positioning, and content that sustains beyond the opening burst.
