Hindi cinema's 2026 is a story about one film and everybody else. Dhurandhar: The Revenge, the Aditya Dhar sequel starring Ranveer Singh, has grossed roughly four times as much worldwide as the year's second-biggest Hindi release, and it did it while also setting the biggest digital launch India has recorded. Below it sits a more familiar shape: a war sequel, a horror-comedy, a franchise comedy and a legacy comedy revival, all landing between 180 and 470 crore.

Box office figures are the industry's noisiest numbers, so it is worth being precise about what this list is. These are worldwide gross collections as compiled by Wikipedia's running tally of 2026 Hindi releases, cross-checked against Sacnilk's collection tracker. Gross is not profit: it is money taken at the ticket window before the exhibitor's share, and it says nothing about what a film cost to make.

What OTTweek can tell you that a collection chart cannot is where each of these films actually streams in India today. The platform tags on every card below come from live provider data, so a film that has since moved between services will show its current home rather than the one announced at launch.

    Film · 2026 · Hindi · Mar 18, 2026

    NetflixJioHotstar7.3
    Worldwide gross1,852.44 crore

    The outlier of the decade so far. Aditya Dhar's sequel took more worldwide than the next four Hindi films of 2026 combined, then repeated the trick on streaming, drawing 50 million viewers on its JioHotstar opening weekend. Ranveer Singh's turn as the film's compromised operative got the headlines, but the commercial story is the multi-language release strategy: it opened in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada simultaneously, which is now the default for any Indian film with this kind of ambition.

  2. 2/5Border 2

    Netflix7.0
    Worldwide gross464.50 crore

    The long-promised sequel to J.P. Dutta's 1997 war film, and the year's clearest evidence that a dormant Hindi franchise can still open big if the original meant something to the audience. It is the only 2026 Hindi release other than Dhurandhar: The Revenge to clear 400 crore worldwide.

  3. 3/5Bhooth Bangla

    Netflix6.5
    Worldwide gross247.28 crore

    Priyadarshan and Akshay Kumar's horror-comedy, and the third year running that the horror-comedy has been Hindi cinema's most reliable mid-budget bet. It cost a fraction of what the two films above it cost and returned a healthier multiple than either.

  4. 4/5Dhamaal 4

    Dhamaal 4

    Film · 2026 · Hindi · Jul 10, 2026

    Worldwide gross222.71 crore

    The fourth entry in Indra Kumar's ensemble comedy series, arriving nineteen years after the first. Sacnilk's tracker has it at 166 crore India nett against a 228 crore worldwide figure, a domestic-heavy split that is typical of the franchise — these films play to the single-screen and family audience rather than the overseas market.

  5. 5/5Welcome to the Jungle

    Welcome to the Jungle

    Film · 2026 · Hindi · Jun 25, 2026

    Worldwide gross186.83 crore

    The third Welcome film, held up for years in production and release-date churn before finally landing in 2026. Its 134 crore India nett against a 193 crore worldwide gross on Sacnilk's count makes it a moderate earner rather than the franchise revival its cast list was built for.

The gap between first and second place on this list — more than 1,380 crore — is the widest in recent memory for Hindi cinema, and it is worth reading as a warning as much as a triumph. A year in which one film accounts for the majority of the industry's theatrical gross is a year in which the mid-budget film has not found its audience in cinemas.

That is precisely where streaming has absorbed the shortfall. Several of 2026's most-watched Hindi titles never had a theatrical run at all, and the films on this list have all found substantially larger audiences on OTT than they did in cinemas.

Frequently asked

Which is the highest-grossing Hindi film of 2026?
Dhurandhar: The Revenge, with a worldwide gross of 1,852.44 crore according to Wikipedia's compilation of 2026 Hindi releases. It is roughly four times the worldwide gross of Border 2, the year's second-biggest Hindi film.
Where can I stream Dhurandhar: The Revenge in India?
It premiered on JioHotstar in June 2026 and is also carried on Netflix. The platform tags on the card above reflect live provider data for India, so they are the ones to trust if the film has since moved.
Are these figures net or gross?
Worldwide gross — total money taken at the ticket window before the exhibitor's share and before tax. India nett figures, which are what Indian trade publications usually headline, are substantially lower. Neither figure is profit, because neither accounts for what the film cost to produce or market.
Does OTTweek measure box office collections?
No. OTTweek tracks streaming availability and does not collect, audit or estimate box office data. Every collection figure on this page is quoted from a named third-party source and linked to it.
