Top 10 Biggest Indian Grossers of 2025 At The Overseas Box Office
Mumbai, December 14 - The Indian films have had a decent year at the overseas box office, which showcased a striking mix of regional powerhouses and pan-Indian titles. From Tamil and Malayalam films punching above their weight to big-budget Hindi entertainers finding audiences abroad, the list below reflects not just star power but a widening global appetite for Indian cinema in multiple languages.
At the top (so far) sits superstar Rajinikanth's Coolie with a commanding 180.50 crore. In comparison, the top 10 as a whole have pulled in approximately 1175 crore overseas, a clear sign that 2025 was a decent year for Indian films beyond domestic shores. A few trends stand out. South Indian films, particularly Tamil and Malayalam, continued to dominate the upper ranks, showing the sustained international reach of regional content.
Big franchise and action titles such as L2: Empuraan and Kantara Chapter 1 also performed superbly, proving that sequels and spectacle remain reliable overseas earners. Meanwhile, comedies and mass entertainers like Housefull 5 and Good Bad Ugly indicate that the diaspora and local markets still make space for lighter, crowd-pleasing fare.
Language diversity is another takeaway: the top ten biggest Indian overseas grossers include Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam and Kannada releases, demonstrating that language is less of a barrier overseas when a film has strong word-of-mouth, star appeal, or franchise recognition, even though some of the films in the list underperformed to their reputation.
With the year approaching its end, the top 10 list has seen a major entry with Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar, which releases on December 5, making a massive entry with sensational performance at the overseas box office. Through the second weekend, the film has already entered the top 10 films of the year and is on course to finish in the top 3, or possibly the biggest Indian overseas grosser of the year. There is Kartik Aaryan's TMMTMTTM (December 25), which is expected to generate big hype during the Christmas corridor.
