Box Office Report: November 03, 2025 – ‘Dies Irae’ Holds Strong on Monday, Baahubali: The Epic Slows Down
🔥 Box Office Mania: ‘Dies Irae’ Storms Ahead, ‘Kantara Chapter 1’ is a Monster Hit, and ‘Thamma’ Crosses ₹120 Crore!
The Indian Box Office witnessed an expected drop on Monday, November 03, 2025, which was the first weekday after the big Diwali weekend. New releases like Dies Irae, Baahubali: The Epic, Roi Roi Binale, and The Taj Story faced the Monday test. However, the hold for some films is still good, proving that content is truly king.
The Malayalam horror-thriller Dies Irae showed the best collection among the new releases on its fourth day. Meanwhile, the superstar re-release Baahubali: The Epic saw a major drop, which is normal after a good opening weekend. Among the films in their second week, Thamma and Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat are holding on well. And the biggest story remains Kantara Chapter 1, which is still pulling crowds even after a month!

New Releases Face the Weekday Jolt: Dies Irae Leads the Pack
The films that were released just before the weekend were looking to make the most of the holiday period. Monday’s collections are crucial to see if they have strong word-of-mouth.
Dies Irae (Day 04) – A Terrifyingly Good Hold
The Malayalam psychological horror-thriller Dies Irae continued its impressive run.
- Day 04 Collection: ₹3.2 Crore (India Net)
- Total Collection (India Net): ₹19.95 Crore
- Total Collection (WW BO): ₹43.42 Crore
- Budget: ₹16 Crore
The movie saw a smaller-than-expected drop on its first Monday. A ₹3.2 Crore collection on a Monday after an opening weekend is very strong.
This shows that the word-of-mouth for Dies Irae is fantastic. The movie is now nearing the ₹20 Crore net mark in just four days, which is a big win for a film of this genre. It has already recovered its ₹16 Crore budget from the India net collection itself.
The film is now moving towards becoming a huge blockbuster, with its Worldwide Gross already more than double its budget. The film will now look to maintain this stability throughout the week.

Baahubali: The Epic (Day 04) – A Predictable Dip for the Re-release
The grand re-edited version of the epic saga, Baahubali: The Epic, saw a major drop on Monday.
- Day 04 Collection: ₹1.79 Crore (India Net)
- Total Collection (India Net): ₹26.14 Crore
- Total Collection (WW BO): ₹42.04 Crore
This drop was expected. Re-releases usually have a front-loaded collection, meaning the majority of the business happens on the first few days when fans rush to see it again on the big screen. To still collect almost ₹1.8 Crore on a Monday is very respectable.
The total India Net collection of over ₹26 Crore in just four days is an outstanding feat for a re-release. It confirms the timeless appeal and massive star power of the franchise and its lead actors. The film is already a huge success in the re-release segment.
Roi Roi Binale (Day 04) – Steady Earnings for a Regional Hit
The Assamese musical film Roi Roi Binale is performing well for a smaller film.
- Day 04 Collection: ₹1.75 Crore (India Net)
- Total Collection (India Net): ₹7.88 Crore
- Total Collection (WW BO): ₹9.37 Crore
- Budget: ₹4 Crore
The film’s collection on Monday is nearly the same as the re-release of Baahubali: The Epic, which is a big deal. For a film with a ₹4 Crore budget, a total collection of almost ₹7.9 Crore in India net in four days is already a blockbuster result.

The film has made a profit and is running solely on positive word-of-mouth, especially in its core market. This shows how regional cinema is finding its audience big time.
The Taj Story (Day 04) – Needs a Big Jump
The Taj Story also saw a decline on its first Monday.
- Day 04 Collection: ₹1 Crore (India Net)
- Total Collection (India Net): ₹6.75 Crore
- Total Collection (WW BO): ₹8.25 Crore
- Budget: ₹30 Crore
The collections are slow. With a budget of ₹30 Crore, the film needs a huge jump in the coming days to stay afloat. A drop to ₹1 Crore on Monday means the opening weekend did not give the film the big push it needed. It will be a tough road ahead for this film to reach the break-even point.

Mass Jathara (Day 03) and Aaryan (Day 04) – Collections are Slow
These two films are struggling to attract the audience.
- Mass Jathara (Day 03): Collected ₹1.16 Crore, taking its total to ₹11.61 Crore (India Net) against a big budget of ₹90 Crore. The film had a weak opening weekend, and the drop on Monday is bad news. It is looking like a huge commercial failure.
- Aaryan (Day 04): Collected only ₹0.49 Crore, bringing its total to ₹4.84 Crore (India Net). With a ₹30 Crore budget, this film is also showing very poor performance and is set to wrap up its theatrical run soon.
Second Weekers Show Stability: Thamma Crosses the Big Mark
The films released two weeks ago are now showing their long-run potential.
Thamma (Day 14) – The 100 Crore Success Story
The horror-comedy Thamma is maintaining a very steady run.
- Day 14 Collection: ₹1.65 Crore (India Net)
- Total Collection (India Net): ₹121.95 Crore
- Total Collection (WW BO): ₹169.43 Crore
- Budget: ₹150 Crore
The film has already crossed the crucial ₹120 Crore mark in India’s net collection. Collecting ₹1.65 Crore on its second Monday (Day 14) is a super hold and shows the audience is loving the film.
While the budget is high at ₹150 Crore, the film is now well on its way to making a profit from its theatrical run alone, given the steady collections. It is a certified Hit, and its Worldwide collection is also very good.
Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat (Day 14) – A Sleeper Hit in the Making
This romantic drama continues to surprise everyone with its solid collections.
- Day 14 Collection: ₹1.35 Crore (India Net)
- Total Collection (India Net): ₹65.75 Crore
- Total Collection (WW BO): ₹89.5 Crore
- Budget: ₹35 Crore
The Monday collection of ₹1.35 Crore on Day 14 is a fantastic figure, only slightly lower than Thamma.
This film is a Super Hit already. It has nearly doubled its budget of ₹35 Crore from the India Net collections, and its Worldwide collection is close to ₹90 Crore. This film proves that good content and a focused release strategy can win big even against huge competition.
The Juggernaut Continues: Kantara Chapter 1 is Unstoppable
The biggest success story of the year refuses to slow down.
Kantara Chapter 1 (Day 33) – A True Industry Blockbuster
Even after a month, Kantara Chapter 1 is a machine at the box office.
- Day 33 Collection: ₹0.89 Crore (India Net)
- Total Collection (India Net): ₹611.69 Crore
- Total Collection (WW BO): ₹839.94 Crore
- Budget: ₹125 Crore
Collecting almost ₹1 Crore on its fifth Monday (Day 33) is simply phenomenal. This level of collection at this stage is unheard of for most films.
The film’s total India Net is now over ₹611 Crore, and it is very close to crossing the massive ₹840 Crore Worldwide mark. The film is a historic, all-time Industry Blockbuster. It has created records, and its run shows no signs of stopping completely. The audience is still finding time to experience this cinematic marvel on the big screen.
