Final Destination 6: Bloodlines has taken the global box office by storm. Released nearly 14 years after the last installment, this new film in the horror-thriller series has captivated audiences around the world, including India. Despite the long gap, fans—both old and new—are rushing to theatres, making it one of the most talked-about international films currently showing.
Not Connected to Previous Parts
While the first five Final Destination movies were connected in theme and tone, the new chapter is a standalone story. It does not link directly to any of the previous films in terms of plot. However, the franchise’s core concept remains the same: death is the main character, and it follows people in mysterious and terrifying ways.
The popularity of short clips from earlier Final Destination films on social media has helped draw attention to the latest installment.
Box Office Success in India and Worldwide
Final Destination: Bloodlines was released in India on May 15, 2025, and within just eight days, it has surpassed the earnings of major Bollywood films like Vicky Kaushal’s “Chhaava” and Ajay Devgn’s “Raid 2.”
Even after the release of Tom Cruise’s “Mission Impossible 8”, this horror film continues to hold strong at the box office, showing no signs of slowing down.
According to early estimates, the film has crossed ₹1000 crore in worldwide collection by its eighth day, making it one of the biggest international successes in India this year. It is also expected to overtake Shah Rukh Khan’s “Pathaan” and “Jawan” in total worldwide revenue very soon.
