2024 was a solid year for Bollywood, if not the best. Recent releases like Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and Singham Again, which clashed on Diwali (November 1), are raking in big numbers at the box office. Both films received positive responses from critics and audiences alike. However, one film that completely stole the show this year was none other than the Maddock Supernatural Universe (MSU) movie Stree 2. The horror-comedy starring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao collected nearly INR 630 crore and was a massive hit. Another MSU film that grabbed attention was Munjya, starring Abhay Verma and Sharvari Wagh. Box Office: Kartik Aaryan’s ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3′ and Ajay Devgn’s ’Singham Again’ Enter INR 200 Crore Club – All Bollywood Movies That Reached the Milestone Before Them!.

With 2024 coming to an end in a few days, let us take a look at the exciting lineup of films scheduled to hit the big screens during holidays and festivals from 2025 to 2026.
