Kantara Chapter 1 box office update
Kantara Chapter 1 earned ₹39 crore net in India on Sunday, its 11th day in theatres. This gave it a very respectable second weekend domestic haul of ₹100 crore. It has taken its domestic earnings after 11 days to ₹439.65 crore net ( ₹525 crore gross). The film has been a true pan-India success, earning over ₹100 crore in both Kannada and Hindi versions, with the Telugu version set to join soon.
Kantara Chapter 1 has been a success overseas as well. According to trade sources, the film has earned over $10 million overseas, including $4 million in North America itself. Given the scale of the film, it is an impressive haul.
Kantara Chapter 1’s worldwide haul now stands at ₹615 crore, which means it has surpassed the lifetime collections of recent blockbusters like Rajinikanth’s Jailer ( ₹605 crore) and Vijay’s Leo ( ₹606 crore). Hombale Films, the production house behind the film, has reported slightly higher collection figures, which could mean the film has earned close to ₹640 crore by now, eclipsing even Salman Khan’s Sultan ( ₹628 crore). Either way, Kantara Chapter 1 is now the second-highest-grossing Indian film of 2025 and is steadily closing in on Chhaava ( ₹808 crore).
