What the numbers say
Ranveer Singh’s Hindi filmography runs from a 2010 debut to a 2026 latest-year entry, with 20 total titles. Only 14 have budget and gross figures in the table above; for the other 6 appearances, Wikipedia carries no figures. On that data, the score is 8 hits, including 6 blockbusters, with 2 average results and 4 flops. The hit rate is 57 per cent, the average multiple is 2.35, and the total gross across data-carrying films is ₹4,376 crore. The page also lists 11 films in the last decade and 2 awards.
The hits and the misses
The biggest hit and best multiple is Dhurandhar (2025): a ₹250 crore budget returned ₹1,350.83 crore, a 5.4 multiple and a Blockbuster verdict. The weakest return is Jayeshbhai Jordaar (2022): ₹85 crore in, ₹26.31 crore out, a 0.31 multiple and a Flop verdict. That spread defines the risk. In between sit costly underperformers: Singham Again (2024) spent ₹350 crore and grossed ₹389.64 crore, a 1.11 multiple and a Flop; Cirkus (2022) spent ₹150 crore and grossed ₹61.47 crore, a 0.41 multiple and a Flop.
The trend
The recent five releases average 1.89 against 2.90 for the five before them. In the table above, the recent five are Jayeshbhai Jordaar (0.31), Cirkus (0.41), Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani (2.23), Singham Again (1.11) and Dhurandhar (5.4). The five before them are Befikre (1.47), Padmaavat (3.18), Simmba (5.0), Gully Boy (3.97) and 83 (0.86). The recent average is carried by one film: remove Dhurandhar’s 5.4 and the other four multiples sit at or below 2.23.
What it means for his next film and for the industry
For Ranveer Singh’s next film, the numbers argue for cost discipline, not just casting confidence. A 5.4x ceiling makes him a legitimate event actor, but a 2.35 overall average and a 1.89 recent-five average mean the baseline is not blockbuster-level. He is best slotted as a high-upside, high-variance asset: a release can recover five times its budget, as Dhurandhar did, or less than a third of it, as Jayeshbhai Jordaar did.
For the industry, the lesson is that gross alone is a misleading metric. Singham Again crossed ₹389.64 crore and still lands as a Flop because the budget was ₹350 crore. A star with 6 blockbusters and 4 flops in 14 data-carrying films demands ROI-based release planning: size the spend against the multiple history, not the name alone.
