2025 has already passed its midway, with only four months left before hitting 2026. Looking at the box office, it is safe to say that the year opened with action-thriller films, mass franchises and later softly shifted to rom-coms that became the blockbusters.
This year, we also witnessed several record-breaking moments in Bollywood. From Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava wave, Saiyaara‘s romantic anthem, to Mahavatar Narsimha shading as the highest-grossing animated film in Indian history, the wowsome directions were more than plump downers. As the year-end draws to a close, here’s where you can stream these top-grossing movies of 2025 on OTT.
