Tiger Shroff’s latest installment in the Baaghi series has underperformed at the box office, marking its lowest collection since 2016. Despite previous successes, the film’s weak script, repetitive action, and ‘A’ rating have alienated audiences. It also faces strong competition from ‘The Conjuring: Final Rites,’ which has become the fastest Hollywood film to earn Rs 50.50 crore in 2025.
Tiger Shroff made his debut with Heropanti in 2014 but it was with the Baaghi series that he established himself as an action star. The series has till now spawned 4 installments but the latest one has been met with it’s lowest box office collection since the start of the series in 2016. Baaghi which featured Shraddha Kapoor with Tiger and directed by Sabbir Khan had turned out to be a sleeper hit with a weekend collection of Rs 38.5 crore. Riding high on it the film sequel was announced which was directed by choreographer turned director Ahmed Khan and it delivered sensational results with weekend collection bringing in Rs 73.10 crore. The film still remains in the Top 3 hits of Tiger’s career. To years later on the back of War’s success released Baaghi 3 the film once again directed by Ahmed Khan brought back Shraddha Kapoor to the fold and found semi success at the ticket window as the film went on to earn Rs 53.83 crore. After a series of wrong bets Tiger returned to the 4 installment hoping to revive not only the franchise but also his career. And the film hasn’t been able to deliver on the expectations,The film over the weekend has minted Rs 31.25 crore but one needs to factor in a caveat. For the first day the film was offering a ‘ Buy One Get One’ ticket offer and for the second and third date the film was offering discount up to Rs 200 on tickets. So the actual collection would be lesser than what is being mentioned in the trade circles.Trade points out that lack of coherence in the script and no newness in action has been two major factors in the film not connecting with the audience besides getting ‘A’ certificate which alienated the kids who are Tiger’s loyal fan base. Also the film face massive competition from The Conjuring: Final Rites which led a riot at the box office with zero promotion. The film went on to make Rs 50.50 crore in three days and is the fastest Hollywood film to do so in 2025 displacing Tom Cruise’s Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning. Baaghi 4 starred Sanjay Dutt, Harnaaz Sandhu and Sonam Bajwa in the lead with Shreyas Talpade playing a pivotal role.
