Yash Raj Films Box Office Report Card 2025: Rs. 522.91 cr. India nett, $29.18M overseas and Rs. 882.45 cr. worldwide – Saiyaara saves the scorecard while War 2 turns spoiler :Bollywood Box Office

For Yash Raj Films, 2025 played out like a year of extremes: one title delivered undeniable, high-grade theatrical value, while the other proved that big numbers don’t always equal big success. On paper, the studio’s box office numbers remained formidable – especially given that YRF released only two films. The combined India nett stood at Rs. 522.91 crore, with Saiyaara leading the charge at Rs. 337.78 crore nett, officially tagged an All Time Blockbuster and finishing as the 3rd highest India grosser of 2025. In contrast, War 2 collected Rs. 185.13 crore nett, a figure that still placed it as the 5th highest of 2025 (including Hindi dubbed titles), yet its final verdict was a Flop, underlining the harsh truth of today’s theatrical ecosystem: collections alone don’t define outcomes; cost structures, recovery timelines, and audience retention do.

The overseas performance, however, showcased YRF’s continuing advantage as a globally scalable studio. Saiyaara posted an overseas gross of $19.73 million, ranking 2nd highest of 2025, while War 2 still pulled $9.45 million, the 4th highest overseas total of the year. Together, the two films delivered $29.18 million, reinforcing that the YRF label continues to command visibility and theatre support abroad. Even when one film did not deliver a clean win in India from a trade perspective, the studio’s international footprint ensured the global business remained meaningful.

On the worldwide front, the headline gets even louder. Saiyaara closed at Rs. 579.23 crore worldwide, ranking as the 3rd highest worldwide grosser of 2025, while War 2 ended at Rs. 303.22 crore worldwide. Combined, YRF’s 2025 worldwide total stood at Rs. 882.45 crore. But the internal split is what defines the report card: 2025’s global strength was driven disproportionately by Saiyaara, while War 2 served as the cautionary tale that a franchise-scale release can still end up on the wrong side of the verdict if the economics and reception don’t align.

The larger takeaway is clear. YRF’s distribution muscle, overseas traction, and ability to mount event films remain intact, but 2025 also signals a very specific challenge for big studios going forward: turning scale into surplus. Saiyaara gave the studio the year’s biggest validation with strong domestic pull, strong overseas legs, and a top-three worldwide finish. War 2, despite ranking among the year’s top earners in multiple circuits, showed how quickly the narrative changes when expectations and costs outweigh theatrical momentum. In short, YRF ends 2025 with heavyweight numbers and a reminder that in the post-pandemic box office era, the real win is not only being big, but being decisively profitable.
