This 2-hour 10-minute film beats Vicky Kaushal starrer Chhaava, earns Rs 90 crore in a budget of Rs 7 crore, movie is…, lead actors are…

In a year dominated by big-budget blockbusters, a modestly budgeted film has quietly outshone them all in terms of profitability. While titles like 'Chhaava,' 'Housefull 5,' and 'Sitaare Zameen Par' garnered significant attention, another film, made with a fraction of their budgets, has emerged as the most profitable Indian movie of 2025. Which movie is this? That film is Tourist Family, a Tamil-language comedy-drama directed by debutant Abishan Jeevinth. Produced on a modest budget of Rs 7 crore, the movie has grossed over Rs 90 crore worldwide, achieving an impressive 1200% return on investment. This remarkable feat places it ahead of other major releases, including Chhaava, which, despite its Rs 130 crore budget and Rs 808 crore earnings, achieved an 800% profit margin. What is the storyline of Tourist Family? Tourist Family stars M. Sasikumar and Simran and tells poignant story of Sri Lankan Tamil family migrating to India post-COVID-19 in search of a better life. The narrative delves into their struggles adapting to a new culture, language barriers, and economic hardships. The film's heartfelt storytelling and relatable themes resonated deeply with audiences, leading to its box office success. The film's success is further underscored by its performance relative to other major releases. While Chhaava and Sitaare Zameen Par had significant box office earnings, their high production costs meant lower profit margins compared to Tourist Family. This highlights the film's exceptional achievement in maximizing profitability through compelling storytelling and efficient budgeting. More about Tourist Family The film also features Mithun Jai Sankar and Kamalesh Jagan, Yogi Babu, Ramesh Thilak, M. S. Bhaskar, Elango Kumaravel, Sreeja Ravi, and Bagavathi Perumal, which was backed by Million Dollar Studios and MRP Entertainment in a joint venture and music and background score were given by renowned composer Sean Roldan. Tourist Family had its premiere on April 29, 2025, and hit theaters on May 1. The film garnered favorable reviews, especially highlighting Abishan's direction and Roldan's musical score, along with the performances of the ensemble cast members. Tourist Family is now available for streaming on JioHotstar in India and SimplySouth internationally, allowing a broader audience to experience this heartwarming tale.
