Bollywood 100 Crore Films

Ghajini was the first film to cross 100 crores at the Indian box office. Couple of years later, Aamir Khan returned with 3 Idiots and not only crossed 100, but hit a double century, a record that still stands.

Today, 100 crores is no longer a big deal. With Ek Tha Tiger, Salman Khan smashed a century in 5-6 days and his 2011 EID release Bodyguard crossed 100 crores in just 7 days.

Ajay Devgn and Salman Khan hold the record for the most films in the 100 crore club – both have 4 films each. Shahrukh Khan has three (Ra One, Don 2, Jab Tak Hai Jaan).

In 2012, there were 3 new entrants into the coveted club – Hrithik Roshan was the first this year as Agneepath did 120 crore of business in India. Akshay Kumar followed it up with two films (Rowdy Rathore, Housefull 2) and Ranbir Kapoor also hit a century with the critically acclaimed Barfi!

    3.HAHK- 3.51 crores
    4.DDLJ- 2.90 crores
    5.Raja Hindustani-2.83 crores
    6.Three Idiots- 2.5 crores

    4.07 crores footfalls today will give around 325-350 crores Nett. Thank You

  • @Arjun Singh.. But dont you think that the footfalls would have been lesser even if Gadar released today? Video Piracy, word-of-mouth spreads quicker and also increased prices of tickets?

  • salman has 4 100cr grossers it can be understood that he dominates the indian boxoffice without doubt but ajay has 4 also which is irritating because he is not consitent…..he has 4 100cr grossers but in last 6 year,,from 2007 to present he has done 23 movies as in main lead and has only 8 hits and 15 flops….
    i mean he is so inconsistent that he is not even near to khans…..khans are still topping the chart…they are unique…..khans have given back to bcak htis….not like ajay….15 flops and 8 hits…..

  • @aakash: It’s only logical that if Ajay makes 5 Movies in ONE Year , then the risk will be a higher, that one or two of his films will not be successfully! -,-

    In contrast to the Khans who make only 1-2 films in a year!!

    But Ajay has even managed to make four HITS in ONE(2010) year!

    tell me which actor(which Khan!) has done it so far?

  • @BigADfan don’ know about khan, but akshay has done it: namastey london, bhool bhulayia,hey baby,singh is king

  • It is not surprising to see Ajay having the maximum number of films in the list. He is definitely less popular than the Khans, Akshay and Hrithik, but he has been doing films, a LOT of them, which instantly strike a chord with the masses, and most of them are bound to make it to 100 crores.
    I have made a prediction of how the top 10 list might look one year down the line.

    1. Dhoom 2 (Aamir Khan and Dhoom, enough said!) 200-250 cr
    2. Krrish 2 (Single screens and kids are gonna go crazy) 200 – 250 cr
    3. Chennai Express (Rohit Shetty and SRK) 180 – 220 cr
    4. 3 Idiots
    5. Kick (Salman in action comedy, repetiton is the downside) 180 – 220 cr
    7. Peekay (Genre not clear, but a fat total is guaranteed) 160 – 220 cr
    6. Ek Tha Tiger
    8. Dabangg 2 150 – 180cr
    9. Naam Hai Boss (Akshay in action mode) 140 – 170 cr
    10. Brindavanam remake (family drama, could go higher if well-accepted) 130 – 180 cr

    According to this list, Ajay Devgan will not feature in top 10 despite the release of Himmatwala and Satyagraha. Akshay’s OUATIM has a chance of making it depending on the content. Salman would still dominate but in the lower end. This is purely speculation but repetition could work against him next year. With two releases, Aamir would have struck back like never before. SRK’s Happy New Year is another dark horse, but chances look very slim. The 100 crore “barrier” would no longer exist, and 200 cr would be the new media and public obsession.

  • srk fan has most eyefalls on youtubes. For liking srk videos and disliking non srk video. Keep on. Its good for other star for the buzz.

  • BoxofficeIndia usually underestimates the earnings. After the extended first week, JHTJ was pegged at 82 cr and SOS at 69 cr, a good 6-8 cr. less than what was reported by other sources. Then again, other sources could be wrong. Basically, the actual figure would be somewhere in between.

  • @BigAdfan Ajay had seen Tht kind of Sucess in 2010 N @punnet AKshay had met with this sort of sucess in 2007, But 1 khan had this kind of phenomenal sucess way before thn 2 Stars(Ajay n Akshay) enjoyed Way back in 1998 n kinda in 199
    He is none other than THE SALMAN KHAN
    1.KUCH KUCH HOTA HAI
    2. PYARR KIYA TO DARNA KYA
    3.BANDHAN
    4.JAB PYAR KISI SE HOTA HAI,
    KKHH WAS highest grosed movie of tht year
    n in 199
    1. BIWI NO1
    2. HUM SAATH SAATH HAI
    3. HUM DIL DE CHUKE SANAM
    all those were TOP3 grossers of tht year! okay hogaya! if u have any doubt u can check on BOXOFFICEINDIA.COM!
    bye

  • It is true that Salman had a phenomenal year in 1999. The same cannot be said about 1998. Bandhan and JPKHH were moderate successes at best while KKHH was an SRK movie all the way.
    2007 was special for Akshay because he had an almost unprecedented 100% success rate and all his films were clean hits, which is so difficult to achieve with increased quantity. Dharmendra had last achieved it in 1987. Whereas, Salman had Hello Brother and Janam Samjha Karo in 1999, and Ajay had Aakrosh and Toonpur Ka Superhero to embarass him in 2010.

  • Now WELcome Back SOUTH Remake KHan and His Assistant….. i Mean Salman khan for Dabang-2 and his Assistant Akshay Kumar ..for Khiladi-786….Total… Both r Non-sense Movie..NOn-sense Songs..Meaningless songs,movie,acting,dialoge,story,actors………Pls Must watch…Both Movies… Hahahahah

  • Sbse pahli movie gadar hai jisne 2001 me 135 crore kamaye the ,to 1st 100 crore club ki movie sunny paji ki gadar hai, gajini nhi
