Huge congrats to Funke Akindele and the entire team of “Behind The Scenes” on crossing N1.77bn at the cinemas! This is a historic milestone, making it the highest-grossing Nollywood film of 2025. Funke Akindele’s consistency and business acumen have earned her a lasting legacy as one of Nollywood’s most influential figures.
This achievement is no surprise, considering “Behind The Scenes” has broken multiple records, including the highest single-day box office gross on Boxing Day, with N129.5 million. The film’s success can be attributed to its relatable themes, emotional depth, humour, and high production standards.
Funke Akindele’s previous films, “A Tribe Called Judah” and “Everybody Loves Jenifa”, also surpassed the N1 billion mark, solidifying her position as Nollywood’s Box Office Queen.
