As
it
happens
every
year,
the
Hindi
film
industry
witnessed
a
flurry
of
fresh
faces
making
their
way
into
the
acting
world
in
the
past
year
2025.
Some
connected
well
with
the
audience
and
some
didn’t.
But
last
year
was
different
as
some
of
these
fresh
faces
didn’t
just
get
critical
acclaim
for
their
performance
but
also
got
box
office
numbers
to
prove
their
worth.
And
amongst
them,
three
names
who
shined
the
brightest
who
ruled
the
box
office
with
their
debut
outings
are
-Ahaan
Panday,
Aneet
Padda
and
Sonam
Bajwa.
Another
debutante
who
announced
her
arrival
in
style
was
Sonam
Bajwa.
A
bona-fide
star
in
Punjab,
Sonam
began
her
Hindi
film
journey
too
this
year
and
starred
in
Housefull
5,
which
crossed
₹200
crore
mark
at
the
Indian
box
office.
Her
success
streak
continued
as
she
starred
opposite
Harshvardhan
Rane
in
Ek
Deewane
Ki
Deewaniyat.
The
Diwali
release
defied
expectations
and
emerged
as
one
of
the
most
successful
films
of
the
year,
collecting
over
₹90
crore
domestically
against
a
budget
of
₹25
crore.
The
film
also
crossed
the
₹100
crore
mark
worldwide.
Sonam
brought
a
quiet
restrained
grace
to
her
role,
delivering
a
performance
that
was
at
once
understated
yet
impactful.
These
two
films
combined
made
Sonam
one
of
the
most
profitable
stars
of
2025
with
over
₹300
crore
at
the
box
office
to
her
name.
The
year
2025
just
showed
that
good
talent
is
rewarded
by
the
audience
not
just
with
praise
but
also
with
ticket
sales
