Vicky Kaushal is on a record-breaking spree with his historical action film Chhaava. He’s covered a major gap towards achieving the 1000 crore mark in the post-Covid era.

Khiladi Kumar has had a total of 13 releases in the post-pandemic era. Unfortunately, fans have not shown much interest, as over 90% of his films have failed at the Indian box office. His last hit was OMG 2 (2023). Sky Force was supposed to begin 2025 on a successful note but failed to recover its whopping 160 crore budget.
