Bollywood maintains its lead with a 122-crore edge over Kollywood and 277 crores over Tollywood. Mollywood continues to perform steadily but trails with a 1,209-crore gap from the leader.

These figures show not just Bollywood’s ongoing dominance, but also the growing strength of South Indian cinema, especially Tamil and Telugu industries, which are steadily narrowing the gap.
