With Housefull 5, Akshay Kumar might just flip the script and outpace Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava at the Indian box office. Check below for updates
The year 2025 seems to be marking a strong comeback for Akshay Kumar at the Indian box office. After the success of Sky Force, Kesari Chapter 2 is expected to be his next film to enter the 100-crore club.
But can he reach the same milestone that Vicky Kaushal has already achieved, something that even Salman Khan couldn’t? Here’s a deep dive into the numbers.
How Akshay Kumar Is Performing at the Indian Box Office in 2025
While Sky Force struggled at the box office, recovering just 84% of its production budget, Kesari Chapter 2 has performed considerably better.
It currently ranks fifth among Bollywood’s top earners in 2025 and might cross the 100-crore milestone as its run continues.

- Sky Force: 134.93 crores
Total: 225.19 crores
Can Akshay Kumar Hit the 500 Crore Mark Like Vicky Kaushal?
With a staggering collection of 615.39 crores, Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava has made him the only Bollywood actor to breach the 500 crore milestone at the Indian box office in 2025
To reach the 500 crore milestone in 2025 alongside Vicky Kaushal, Akshay Kumar needs Housefull 5 to add about 275 crores to his box office total.
Expectations were sky-high for Sikandar, but Salman Khan fell short, and with no additional films slated this year, the goal appears unattainable.
What Housefull 5 Could Earn at the Box Office
Well, at an estimated budget of 375 crores, Housefull 5 is one of Bollywood’s costliest films. To secure a ‘hit’ tag by Koimoi’s metrics, it needs to collect 750 crores or more at the box office.
Now, generating significant pre-release excitement, Akshay Kumar’s comedy thriller is one of the most popular films of 2025. The teaser and songs have created major buzz, and a powerful trailer could propel it to one of the highest openings of the year.
