Here's a quick look at the Bollywood movies list of 2026. Lots of interesting titles and genres coming right up!

'When my character died in Border, I felt a strange sense of pride. But today, I sometimes feel that if my character had survived, perhaps I would have been a part of Border 2.'
When Dhurandhar released a week ago, it was expected to become a hit, with a lifetime collections of Rs 300 crore (Rs 3 billion) in reach. But no one knew the film to become such a phenomenon.
2025 started with a blockbuster in Chhaava and ended with an even bigger one in Dhurandhar. There have been other Hindi hits too, and we take a look at the Top 10.
It's raining sequels on OTT this week, but that's not all. Sukanya Verma lists everything you can watch.

'I would rather make movies in this universe and build up a loyal fan base over a period.'
'Nawaz's character was created around Vikram Betaal.' 'Betaal was a little more gimmicky, funny; he would laugh at you, tease you.' 'That's why I made Nawaz very quirky.'
Thamma is mostly entertaining and not grotesquely horror-inducing, observes Deepa Gahlot.
'We don't make films for profit and that's exactly why profit follows.'
'I wish him 'Happy Teacher's Day' on Teacher's Day, inse kaafi kuchh seekhne ko milta hain.'
Original's goodwill, natural bonhomie amongst the actors and wild card entries, Stree 2's spirited return sure has its high points, notes Sukanya Verma.
The other releases of the week, Khel Khel Mein and Vedaa, have not been able to make a mark at the box office.
This Diwali will not see the three Khans or Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn or Hrithik Roshan bringing their films to the marquee, as is usually the norm. Even Ranbir Kapoor, Kartik Aaryan and Ranveer Singh will not treat us to a movie release.
It looks like Stree 2 has been granted a bigger budget for VFX and sound, bringing with it a promise of more chills, observes Deepa Gahlot.
The film has been surpassing huge milestones at a rapid pace and hasn't taken much time to march up to the Rs 500 Crore Club as well.
'It's heartening to see that the festive energy is being driven not only by star-led blockbusters but also by fresh, content-rich films.'

Before becoming one of Bollywood's most recognisable faces, Shraddha Kapoor once worked as a sandwich maker and barista in the United States - a revelation that has left fans stunned and even momentarily fooled LinkedIn.
It's 'not looking like a Diwali lineup, which is usually grand and has superstar movies.'
After Jawan, it has emerged as the second Hindi film to enter the Rs 600 Crore (Rs 6 billion) Club.
Amid the ongoing industry-wide discussion on work-life balance in the film world, several stars have spoken up about long working hours and the need for healthier schedules.
While the lifetime score of Gadar 2 and Pathaan is history now, next up is Animal, which would be crossed in a couple of days. The biggest of them all is Jawan and indications are that the Hindi version of last year's biggest hit will be challenged by this year's surprise blockbuster.
