The year 2025 has been a successful year for the film industry. Compared to previous years, many excellent stories were released on the big screen this year, and these stories received both the respect and the audience they deserved. Many movies rake in huge profits, while some dominate on OTT platforms. Several movies received critical acclaim, while others won over audiences. However, one movie released this year has been praised by critics, is performing exceptionally well at the box office, and is also number one in IMDb ratings.
This is neither a Bollywood nor a South Indian movie, but a low-budget Gujarati movie. The movie’s earnings have been so impressive that it has become the highest-grossing movie of the year. Even movies like ‘Dhurandhar’, ‘Chhava’, and ‘Kantara Chapter 1’ are unlikely to break their record. The name of this movie is ‘Laalo Krishna Sada Sahayate’.

What is the movie’s story?
The story of ‘Laalo Krishna Sada Sahayate’ revolves around Laalo, an ordinary rickshaw driver whose life is filled with difficulties and regrets. One day, he suddenly finds himself trapped in a secluded farmhouse, where he is forced to confront the deep inner struggles of his past. Battling his struggles, mistakes, and regrets, Laalo’s mental state and emotional pain are tearing him apart from within. As the story progresses, Laalo experiences a vision of Lord Krishna. This vision marks the beginning of his spiritual journey, leading him towards self-reflection, self-forgiveness, and ultimately, self-redemption.
The appearance of Krishna ignites a flame of hope, self-confidence, and faith in his life, enabling Laalo to face his difficulties with resilience, trust, and a positive outlook. The core message of the story is that no matter how many problems one faces in life, true faith and inner struggle can help a person recognise the goodness within themselves and rise above their difficulties.
Laalo Krishna Sada Sahayate’s Earnings
‘Laalo Krishna Sada Sahayate’ holds a record that ‘Dhurandhar’ will never be able to break. This little-known Gujarati movie has already claimed the title of the highest-grossing Indian movie of 2025. Made on a modest budget of ₹50 lakh, the Gujarati movie ‘Laalo Krishna Sada Sahayate’ has grossed approximately ₹114 crore worldwide. Its net earnings are over ₹90 crore, which translates to a staggering profit of nearly 227,000 per cent. To break this record, ‘Dhurandhar’ would have to earn approximately ₹24,000 crore, which is more than even movies like ‘Titanic’ and ‘Avatar 2’. As for its IMDb rating, the movie has received the highest rating in 2025, at 8.7.
Gujarati Cinema Makes History
‘Laalo Krishna Sada Sahayate’ is now the highest-grossing Gujarati movie of all time, far surpassing the previous record holder. It has become the second-highest-grossing movie in the state of Gujarat after ‘Pushpa 2‘; however, in terms of audience numbers, it might even be higher. This is arguably the second biggest hit in the history of Gujarati cinema, after ‘Desh Re Joya Dada Pardesh Joya‘, released in 1998, which would have earned over ₹150 crore in today’s terms.
