Bollywood has raked in some good money-spinners in the first half of 2025. While Chhaava hold the title of the biggest blockbuster of the year, the latest big release, Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par, has also earned the title of superhit. However, ever since SZP was released, a few influencers were constantly mocking the film, calling the movie's collection fake, made-up, and even calling it a scam by corporate booking. Before Sitaare, Sajid Nadiadwala's Housefull 5 was released in cinemas. Despite the negative reviews, Housefull 5 successfully earned Rs 300 crores worldwide. After Aamir's film was released, H5 suffered a great drop, which was expected.
