The Hindi film industry experienced a disappointing year in 2022, with several highly anticipated movies such as Shamshera, Samrat Prithviraj, Laal Singh Chaddha, Jersey, Bachchan Pandey, and others failing to perform well at the box office. Conversely, South Indian films emerged as the clear victors in 2022, with movies like KGF Chapter 2, RRR, Vikram, PS-1 to Kantara raking in substantial profits across the country.
Bollywood failed to have a single film in the top five highest-grossing films of the year, with Brahmastra barely making it to the sixth spot. Even top Bollywood stars such as Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar, Ayushmann Khurrana, and Ranveer Singh were unable to attract moviegoers to theaters, indicating that 2022 was a lackluster year for the Hindi film industry.
In contrast, South Indian movies gained more acceptance in the Hindi market, while Bollywood appeared to be losing ground, even within its own industry. However, Shahrukh Khan’s Pathaan managed to turn the tide for the Hindi cinema industry, breaking several box office records and restoring some of its lost glory. The movie recently surpassed the 1000 Cr milestone.

Pathaan
This big-budget action thriller starring Shahrukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham created a huge buzz among cinephiles and shattered many box office records. The movie has crossed the 1000 crore mark at the box office, the highest Indian grosser in a single language.

Bholaa
Following the enormous success of Drishyam 2, Ajay Devgn returned to the big screen with another major release titled “Bholaa.” Ajay Devgn produces the film in collaboration with Reliance Entertainment, T-Series Films, and Dream Warrior Pictures.
The Hindi adaptation of the Tamil film Kaithi, Bholaa, centers around a prisoner who gets released after a decade behind bars and embarks on a journey to reunite with his daughter. Although Bholaa enjoyed a decent opening, it struggled to cross the 100 Cr mark at the Indian box office and ranks as the third-highest opening film of 2023, following Pathaan and TJMM.
