Gondhal Box Office: Revisiting The Marathi Thriller’s Theatrical Run After Being Selected As India’s Official Entry For Oscars 2027

Gondhal has become a hot topic of discussion on the internet. A day before yesterday, it was learned that the film had been selected as an official entry for the 99th Academy Awards (Oscars 2027), a move that surprised many. Among the interesting Indian films of 2025, the Marathi crime thriller emerged as a pick by the jury, which has naturally piqued interest in the film. Amid this, let’s find out how the film fared at the Indian box office upon its release.

The Marathi crime thriller was theatrically released on November 14, 2025. It was distributed by AA Films. It was released amid extremely low buzz, resulting in a slow start. Although reviews and word of mouth were mostly positive, the film failed to create urgency among moviegoers, mainly because it differed from typical commercial fare.

How much did Gondhal earn at the Indian box office?

Gondhal started its run by scoring just 5 lakh on its opening day. It saw a surge over the first weekend, but overall collections remained on the low side. It somehow stayed in theaters for six weeks but failed to garner a decent sum. As per the final update, the film had earned 84 lakh net at the Indian box office, which equals 99 lakh gross.
