Most 100 crore films: Akshay Kumar set to equal Shah Rukh Khan

Akshay Kumar is all set to equal the record of Shah Rukh Khan for the 2nd highest most number of 100 crore films. Salman Khan tops the list with 10 – consecutive – 100 crore films.

Akshay’s last release ‘Rustom’ which released with Mohenjo Daro last week, will become the superstar’s 3rd consecutive 100 crore grosser – all of which have come this year. No other actor in the history of Indian Cinema has previously achieved the same record, the most was 2 films – which has been achieved 4 times before by Salman Khan.

It could be a unique record which only Akshay Kumar can boast of, because very few actors do more than 2 films per year. Akshay could achieve the same record next year or even deliver four 100 crore films next year, if his fantastic run continues.

The Mohenjo Daro debacle has also resulted in Hrithik’s streak of three consecutive 100 crore films has ended quite abruptly.

Check out the list below:

  • Salman Khan (10 films) – Dabangg, Ready, Bodyguard, Ek Tha Tiger, Dabangg 2, Jai Ho, Kick, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Prem Ratan Dhan Payo, Sultan
  • Shahrukh Khan (6 films) – Ra One, Don 2, Jab Tak Hai Jaan, Chennai Express, Happy New Year, Dilwale
  • Akshay Kumar (6 films) – Housefull 2, Rowdy Rathore, Holiday: A Solider Is Never Off Duty, Airlift, Housefull 3, Rustom (almost certain)
  • Ajay Devgn (5 films) – Golmaal 3, Singham, Bol Bachchan, Son Of Sardar, Singham Returns
  • Aamir Khan (4 films) – Ghajini, 3 Idiots, Dhoom 3, PK
  • Hrithik Roshan (3 films) – Agneepath, Krrish 3, Bang Bang
  • Ranveer Singh (2 films) – Ram Leela, Bajirao Mastani
  • Ranbir Kapoor (2 films) – Barfi!, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani
  • Varun Dhawan (2 films) – ABCD 2, Dilwale
  • John Abraham (2 films) – Housefull 2, Race 2
  • Arjun Kapoor (1 film) – 2 States
  • Farhan Akhtar (1 film) – Bhaag Milkha Bhaag
  • Sidharth Malhotra (1 film) – Ek Villain
  • Saif Ali Khan (1 film) – Race 2

  • Happy for Akshay. Hope he maintains this pace. This is indeed 2007 magic recreated. So far no problem with his future line-up. Even his multiplex audience are back. Everything in his favor.

    Jolly LLB 2, Crack, Robot 2, Ikka, Namastey England, Toilet… keep going Akki.

  • Salman has

    – 10*100cr = 1000cr
    – 4*200cr = 800cr
    – 2*300cr = 300cr

    And next TUBLIGHT will be 1st – 400cr, 3rd – 300cr, 5th – 200cr and 11th 100cr.

    RECORD BREAKER SALMAN

    KAABIL on Republic Day but not post for KAABIL

    Because INDICINE Hua shock after confirm news. Isliye nhi kiya koi post.

    Now COWARD vs Fearless HRITHIK

  • @Rockstar if ritesh is the reason why ek villain crossed 100 cr than what happened to bangistan, great grand masti & the movies ritesh has done. Ek villain is a 100 cr because of sid & sid only why u retard always spit shit about Sid if the movie would have failed u all would have blamed SID when the movie is a superhit it’s because of ritesh why this double standard?

  • 100 CRORE Actors’STARS’
    200 CRORE Actors’SUPERSTARS’& 300 CRORE ACTORS ‘MEGASTARS’
    (Though AKKI is a SUPERSTAR,If he does 1 movie in a year,it will collect 200+)

  • The big difference is Salman has done it consistently without breaking the 100 crs streak. Out of 10, 2 movies were released on Non Holiday (Republic Day in 2014 was a Sunday when Jai Ho released). But giving 3 movies with 100 crs within an year is no less achievement so congrats to Akki & his fans. Once he gives a 200+crs (Robot 2.0 is most likely) he will come into big league. Akki career is currently in transition has marginally improved. Good going.

  • To this moron named @AB who keeps barking that No patriotism=No hit for Akki. If Patriotism makes a movie hit, then why were these following movies flops?

    Tango Charlie(Ajay and Bobby) – Flop

    Deewar-Let’s Bring back our heroes(Big B, Sanjay Dutt) – Flop

    LOC Kargil – Below Average

    Refugee(Abhishek and Kareena) – Flop

    Ab Tumhare Hawale Watan Saathiyo(Big B, Akshay and Bobby) – Disaster

    Insan(Akki and Ajay) – Flop

    Swades(SRK)- Average

    Satyagraha- Flop

    The Legend of Bhagat Singh(Ajay) – Disaster

    Mangal Pandey: The Rising(Aamir) – Flop

    Zameen(Ajay and Abhishek)- Flop

    Gandhi My Father(Akshaye Khanna)- Flop

    And ending this list on a high note with the mega blockbuster DESHDROHI(KRK)

  • @Nausherwan which site or source revealed srk has 3 highest grosser of all time he did it just once which broken 2 months officially he doesn’t have any highest grosser of all time. Salman has 1 & it lasted for 7 long years. If we look at few record Salman has 2 decade highest grosser which is most by anyone, Salman has 15blockbuster no one has half of it in the history of bollywood 2 300 cr while ur Maya memsab yet to cross 3 year old kick record which looks impossible without Deepika yash raj & dharma.

  • So what’s the big issue.akshay’s 1st 100 crore film was Houseful 2.Rustom is 18th film of him from hf2(including Hf2).that is only 6 100 crore films out of 18.whereas SRK has 6 consecutive 100 crore films from Ra.one to dilwale.but unfortunately his consecutive streak ends with FAN.that means 6 100 crore films out of 7.But Srk has 2 releases till January .he again go past akshay.

  • By emergence of Akki’s successful run Srk & Hrithik will find more difficult to remain in top 5. IMO, by end of of 2017 the following may be Top 5 ranking:

    1. Salman/Aamir

    2. Aamir /Salman (Aamir is yet to sign any movie after Dangal)

    3. Akshay Kumar

    4. Shah Rukh Khan

    5. Ajay Devgan

  • I guess its time 100 cr shd b considered benchmark for big success for smaller or younger stars!! The veterans like akki ajay srk aamir salman hrithik’s super success shd b set on higher benchmarks coz 100 cr is a minimum guarantee they carry n with the huge amnt of money they charge, anything less than say 125 cr shd be considered okayish!! After so many years in industry n now business n budgets increasing many folds , 100 cr or even 125 cr frm such stars dnt do wonders for the industry as they charge equivalent to the budget of the film itself!
    100 crs is plain average n underperformance for any of these hugely popular n almost knwn in every household stars!

  • @Indicine srk has 3 100cr solo rest 3 because of multistarrer hny, ce many claim it’s because of Deepika because Deepika is a bigger star than srk (Remember BM dilwale clash) Dilwale crossed 100 cr because of Rohit shetti, varun, kajol, srk combined so it’s not a solo 100 cr grosser of srk. Fan would have been a solo 100 cr grosser for srk but it failed to cross the bar if Deepika, varun, kajol etc would have been there it would have collected 100 cr.

  • Srk need 300cr film wish Imtiaz Ali n ALR give him because srk films always open huge but failed to sustain unlike salman/amir, Dangal cross 300cr comfortably where Raees can cross 200cr(solo) n 150cr(clash)

  • @ AB what a big excuses akki seling film on patriotic . Before Rustom release u said akki fans will give excuses . Nobody has said Hrithik to do film like patriotic . Why film like Zameen , The Legend Of Bhagat Singh , Mangal Pandey & hrithik Mission Kashmir , Lakshya has been flopped .

  • Dear Zindagi – 100 cr approx (srk 7 akshay 6)
    Raees – 100 cr + (srk 8 akshay 6)
    Jolly llb 2 – 100 cr + (srk 8 akshay 7)
    Crack – 100 cr + (srk 8 akshay 8 )
    The Ring (imtiaz ali’s next) 100 cr + (srk 9 akshay 8)
    2.o 100 cr + (srk 9 akshay 9)
    Dwarf project – 100 cr + (srk 10 akshay 9)
    Ikka – 100 cr + (srk 10 akshay 10)
    Adi chopra’s warrior project – 100 cr + (srk 11 akshay 10)

    And this will continue..

  • if dilwale housefull2 and race2 are added in john and varun list…thete should be abhishek bachan in this list with dhoom3 housefull3 HNY

  • Next Year Salman, Akshay, Aamir and Ajay will add other 100 crore grossers but Hrithik and Srk won’t. Now whole Public know who are the biggest star. Hrithik and SRK’s aukat in Non-Festive Release (60) and (80) Crore .Shame on Superstar Tag used on them.

  • I have a lot of respect for AKKI
    & YES I FEEL now AKKI > HR.
    BUT I dont understand why AKKI fans take credit away from the KHANS saying AKKI is the NON HOLIDAY KING, He didn’t get any festive period still his films grosses 100 crores while KHANS get favourable release dates.
    If Khans get good release dates then whats about AKKI??
    Akki has also got several favourable release periods,
    Holiday – Post IPL
    Baby – Republic Day weekend
    GABBAR-POST IPL
    Brothers – Independence Day
    Singh Is Bling – Gandhi Jayanti
    Airlift – Republic Day weekend
    Housefull 3 – Post IPL
    RUSTOM-INDEPENDENCE DAY WEEKEND
    Ab aur kya chahie KHANS ki jaan loge kya??

  • and not to forget all of akkis 100 cr grossers are the movies which were released on non holidayi.e first day is working day (holiday may have come on 3rd or 4th day after release on some occassions though.)

  • This is a brilliant achievement considering the fact that all the 6 movies have released on Non Holiday which makes it more special . With Shivaay Ajay will also have 6 100 CR Grossers and with Dangal Aamir will also have 5 100 CR Grossers . This has been the best year for Akshay by a huge distance . The upcoming movies of Akshay are also looking impressive and I hope he continues to provide content oriented movies with amazing performances . !!!!!!!!!

  • And record for most clean hits (3) without recovering budgets viz mnik ,devdas ,ra 1 goes to shahrukh khan .cheers

  • Pl check the footfalls for all the movies of any starin last ten years and you will find only Amir, salman and akshay in that. Like this year Salman would have a bigger hit but more people wouk
    ld have watched Akshay’s films. Indicine can you do a topic on this.
