15 October 2025 Box Office Collection Report

The Indian box office on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, showed a clear winner. Rishab Shetty’s epic film, Kantara: A Legend – Chapter 1, continued its strong run. The movie collected a huge amount. It again proved that great content is King for Indian cinema viewers.

On the other hand, the Bollywood romance film, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, is finding it hard. The numbers at the ticket windows are low. A small film, Idli Kadai, is also playing in the cinemas. The collections for all three films show a big difference in how much the audience loves each one.

Kantara: A Legend – Chapter 1 Dominates

The film Kantara: A Legend – Chapter 1 earned Rs 10.73 Crore (Net Collection in India) on its 13th day in theatres. This is a very strong number for a weekday. This Kannada film, which was also released in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam, is a massive success. It is winning the hearts of people across the country.

The film’s total collection in India is now over Rs 460 Crore. This number shows its huge popularity. The movie is a prequel to the 2022 hit film Kantara. It has gotten great reviews from both critics and regular moviegoers.

Why Kantara is a Super Hit

• Strong Story: The movie tells a powerful story about local beliefs and traditions. This theme has connected very well with the Indian audience.
• Widespread Release: Being available in multiple languages helped it reach many people. It succeeded in both South and North India.
• No Strong Competition: Even after a two-week run, there is no big new movie to challenge its success. This helps it keep attracting viewers.

Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari Struggles

The Bollywood film Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari collected only Rs 1.06 Crore (Net Collection in India) on its 13th day. This is a very low number. The film stars Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor. It is a romantic comedy.

This movie opened on October 2, the same day as Kantara: A Legend – Chapter 1. From the start, the film struggled because of the competition. Also, many viewers did not love the film much. The drop in collections shows that people are not choosing this movie over others.

Box Office Challenge

• Big Drop: The collection is much less than what a Bollywood movie with big stars usually gets.
• Poor Word-of-Mouth: The film has not gotten very good reviews from the audience. This stops new people from going to see it.
• Kantara’s Impact: The huge success of Kantara has taken up most of the cinema screens. This has left less space for the Varun Dhawan-starrer to perform well.

Idli Kadai: The Small Film’s Fight

The movie Idli Kadai is a smaller release. It collected Rs 0.41 Crore (Net Collection in India) on Tuesday. This is a modest collection for a film with a smaller scale and lesser-known actors.

It seems to have found a small group of viewers who like its content. However, the competition from the two bigger films is tough. Its screens are few, and the film is finding it hard to grow. In the movie business, small movies like this depend on very good public talk to become a hit.

The box office report clearly shows one thing: the story is what matters most. Kantara is a huge win for regional cinema. It has been proven that people will watch a film in any language if the story is great. Meanwhile, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari is learning a tough lesson about facing such strong competition.

The next few days will be important for Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari and Idli Kadai. They must increase their collections before the next big festival releases take over the screens. Kantara looks set to cross even bigger milestones soon.
