Boxoffy VerdictSuper Hit

Raazi is classified as a Super Hit — a film that performed well above break-even, delivering strong profit for producers and distributors alike. With ₹122 Cr India nett against a reported budget of ₹35 Cr, representing a 349% return on production cost, the film demonstrates solid audience pull across multiple weeks. A Super Hit signals that a film successfully converted its pre-release buzz into sustained footfall, a rare achievement in the competitive Indian theatrical market.

Boxoffy Read
Meghna Gulzar's Raazi is the finest Hindi espionage film — an Indian woman married into a Pakistani military family who transmits intelligence during the 1971 war, a premise whose moral complexity the film inhabits without simplifying. Alia Bhatt's performance is her career's most technically demanding, and the film's refusal to make the enemy one-dimensional is what distinguishes it from patriotic action cinema. Super Hit on its modest budget.
Financial AnalysisBox Office vs Budget

Raazi was reportedly made on a budget of ₹35 Cr. Against that investment, the film collected ₹122 Cr India nett — a 3.5x multiple on production cost and a 349% return on the reported budget. Worldwide gross reached ₹122 Cr, including overseas contribution of ₹-21.96 Cr.

Break-even at the Indian box office typically requires approximately 1.5x the production budget once prints, advertising and distribution costs are factored in — placing the break-even threshold for Raazi at roughly ₹53 Cr India nett. The film cleared this threshold, resulting in the Super Hit verdict.

The 2018 Box OfficeYear in Context
Sanju at ₹341 Cr was Hirani and Ranbir Singh firing together. Padmaavat overcame a months-long controversy to deliver ₹282 Cr. Stree on ₹25 Cr to ₹125 Cr invented the modern horror-comedy — the formula that would lead to Stree 2. Badhaai Ho on ₹23 Cr to ₹134 Cr was the year's most efficient blockbuster. Thugs of Hindostan and 2.0 — two massive budgets, two theatrical disasters — taught the industry that scale without story is the most expensive mistake.
