Thamma Surges Ahead, but Can It Match Vicky Donor's Blockbuster Profits?
27 Oct
Summary
- Ayushmann Khurrana's Thamma earning big at box office
- Vicky Donor, his debut film, was a superhit in 2012
- Thamma's budget may be 25 times higher than Vicky Donor
As of October 27, 2025, Ayushmann Khurrana's latest film Thamma is churning out impressive box office numbers and is expected to soon enter the successful zone. The horror comedy has already earned around 100 crore in just six days, indicating a strong commercial performance.
However, the film faces a significant challenge in matching the glorious profits of Ayushmann's first super hit, Vicky Donor, which was released back in 2012. Vicky Donor, Ayushmann's debut film, had earned 40 crore at the box office and claimed a superhit verdict, generating a remarkable 900% profit on its modest 4 crore budget.
In contrast, the budget of Thamma is yet to be officially disclosed, but it is speculated to be nearly 25 times higher than Vicky Donor's. This means that for Thamma to match Vicky Donor's brilliant box office performance, it would need to earn at least 10 times its budget, which may prove to be an impossible task given the film's much larger production costs.

Nevertheless, Thamma's strong start at the box office suggests that it is well on its way to becoming a hit in its own right. The film's performance will be closely watched in the coming weeks to see if it can continue its momentum and potentially challenge the legacy of Ayushmann's breakout success, Vicky Donor.
