India 2025 First Half Box Office & Upcoming Films
This edition of Streamlined is looking at India’s box office results in the first half of 2025, along with current hit Saiyaara and upcoming films until the end of the year. While South Indian cinema has been performing well in recent years, there are reasons for India’s Hindi-language industry to also feel some relief this year, although even the most optimistic Bollywood pundits are not claiming full-blown recovery just yet.
The second part of the Streamlined Guide to Asian Co-production Funds will be published early next week, including some additional research on Japan’s subsidy systems. Huge thanks to Streamlined readers’ enthusiastic response to this report, which makes it clear that there’s a big gap in objective reporting about funding sources. Streamlined Guides aims to produce more reports on film finance in the future. Let me know if there’s anything you’d like me to research.
