The year 2025 turned out to be remarkable for regional cinema. While Bollywood delivered several hits, many regional films shocked the industry with their extraordinary earnings. One such film is the Gujarati blockbuster Laalo Krishna Sada Sahayate. Made on a shoestring budget, the film shattered records at the box office and became one of the biggest surprises in Gujarati cinema history.
Reports suggest that Laalo Krishna Sada Sahayate was produced for around ₹4 crore but went on to earn approximately ₹110 crore. This means the film collected nearly 27 to 28 times its production cost — an unprecedented achievement for a Gujarati movie. But while the film is receiving immense praise, it has also found itself at the center of a controversy.
What is the controversy?
Even as the film continues its extraordinary run, a dispute has emerged involving someone connected to the project who is now demanding a share of the profits. Details about the claim are still unfolding, and the matter has sparked discussions within the industry about contracts, profit-sharing, and the business dynamics of regional cinema.
Box office dominance
Laalo Krishna Sada Sahayate has stunned trade analysts with its collections:
• India Net Collection: ₹87 crore
• India Gross Collection: ₹103 crore
• Overseas Collection: ₹7 crore
• Worldwide Total: ₹109.50 crore
This makes it the most profitable film of 2025 and one of the biggest success stories in Gujarati cinema.
