Box Office Update: Final Destination Bloodlines Crosses ₹30 Crore in India
The Final Destination franchise returned to theatres after more than a decade with its sixth installment, Final Destination: Bloodlines. The horror film, which hit Indian screens on May 16, 2025, has completed its first week at the box office and crossed the ₹30 crore mark across all language versions in India.
The film was released in English along with dubbed versions in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil. While the initial weekend showed promise with steady numbers and decent occupancy in metros, Bloodlines experienced a noticeable drop in collections from Monday onwards. Industry insiders attribute the slump to mixed word-of-mouth and competition from regional releases.
A Decade Later, the Franchise Still Finds Its Footing
Despite the long gap since the last Final Destination film in 2011, Bloodlines managed to bring a section of loyal horror fans back to theatres. The film opened with a respectable figure on Day 1 and sustained momentum through Saturday and Sunday. Its nostalgic value and slick horror set-pieces helped attract urban youth and longtime fans of the franchise.
The movie is helmed by Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein and explores events that are both a prequel and a spiritual reboot of the series. The new storyline expands on the mythology of Death’s design while introducing a younger cast of characters. The unique kill sequences—one of the franchise’s trademarks—have once again grabbed attention, though some critics argue that the shock factor has dulled compared to earlier films.
Box Office Breakdown So Far
By the end of Day 7, Final Destination: Bloodlines has raked in over ₹30 crore (gross) from its Indian release. Here’s a rough breakdown of how the movie has performed so far:
-
Opening Day (May 16) – ₹5.2 crore
-
Weekend Total (Fri-Sun) – ₹18 crore
-
Monday-Thursday (Weekdays) – Approx. ₹12 crore
-
Total (Week 1) – ₹30 crore+
The English version continues to lead collections, particularly in Tier-1 cities, while the Hindi dubbed version is drawing modest crowds in North Indian circuits. Telugu and Tamil versions have also contributed, though on a smaller scale compared to local hits currently playing in South Indian theatres.
