43 films have now crossed the 100 crore mark at the box office in India and almost all of them belong to major male stars in the industry. The only exceptions are Tanu Weds Manu Returns and Grand Masti – both of which were sequels to successful films.
Salman Khan has dominated the industry unlike any other actor in recent times, and his winning streak of mega grossers and blockbusters is probably the best of all time. Since the second half of 2010, every single film featuring the megastar in the lead, has crossed the 100 crore mark. He leads the second best (Shah Rukh Khan) by a margin of 3 films.
Salman also has a unique record of 9 consecutive films crossing the 100 crore mark, which other actors will struggle to achieve. Shah Rukh was 6 not out, but was dismissed earlier this year when FAN failed to cross 100.
Ajay Devgn has 5 major grossers. He’s now tied with Akshay Kumar, whose latest release ‘Housefull 3’ has just surpassed 100. The founder of almost all the clubs - Aamir Khan has 4 films. But all these actors do not have consecutive 100 crore films – Aamir missed out with Talaash. Akshay and Ajay have several films that have failed to cross 100 in the last few years.
Hrithik Roshan has three films, it’s a unbroken streak (Agneepath, Krrish 3 and Bang Bang) which he would hope to continue with Mohenjo Daro later this year and Kaabil early next year. He’s followed by the younger generation of actors – Ranveer, Ranveer and Varun – all have two 100 crore grossers each. John also has two 100 crore films, but both were multistarrers. Arjun, Farhan, Sidharth and Saif have one each.
Check out the list below:
- Salman Khan (9 films) – Dabangg, Ready, Bodyguard, Ek Tha Tiger, Dabangg 2, Jai Ho, Kick, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Prem Ratan Dhan Payo
- Shahrukh Khan (6 films) – Ra One, Don 2, Jab Tak Hai Jaan, Chennai Express, Happy New Year, Dilwale
- Ajay Devgn (5 films) – Golmaal 3, Singham, Bol Bachchan, Son Of Sardar, Singham Returns
- Akshay Kumar (5 films) – Housefull 2, Rowdy Rathore, Holiday: A Solider Is Never Off Duty, Airlift, Housefull 3
- 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
@Nipun:
Bhai is way ahead of others not only in 100 crores battle but also in all the other departments of BO. Be it giving back to back 200cr grossers, blockbusters, HGOTY or Footfalls!!
@somebuddhi chameleon kapur:
You Bangladeshi village idiot, Bhai gave NINE back to back 100cr grossers and Akki gave only 5 100cr grossers (out of his last 25 movies). Still, how does Akki roxxx??
#Indicine forgot to mention that Bhai is also the only actor who has never failed after entered into the 200cr club..!!
#Megastardom!!!!
different between srk and others
srk’s 3 out of 6 did 100cr with clash whereas other had all solo relised
if jai ho came with any other film than it struggle to earn even 60cr
if prem rattan dhan payo cashwith bajirao than 100 cr mark like a dream for him
common factor of salu, ajay , akki 100cr film most of south remake or franchises
lots of his 100cr are south masala out of 9 salman have 5 movies are South remake and franchise
akki has south reamke and franchise in his 100cr movie list
aamir has south remake ghajani and franchise dhoom3 in his 100cr list
so what a big deal in it salu booked all eid and remake right of south for stay in Bollywood even new star varun ,tiger and etc. came with eid with this formula than will deliver 150cr
@parth: talash-flop didnt cross 100cr, pk,3 idiots and ghajini-solo release on edx–idiot parth do u have knowledge any solo movie on edx will easily become success..itz edx power not ur desdrohi tingu khans…he is below Siddharth malhotra during non-holidays…indicine shud add prefix like Edx star amir, non holiday flop hero amir or more apt is Eshan faramosh amir who wanted2 runaway from india
But Aamir Khan has been the founder of all these clubs..he may not have more 100 crore grossers because he has 200,250 and 300 crore grossers to his name all of them opened by him…if he wanted,he could have played safe by doing only commercial films after 3 idiots but instead he opted to do something different with Talaash nd dhobi ghat…and when the time was right to do commercial cinema he gave dhoom 3 and PK,both of which were landmarks in terms of box office…expecting Dangal to be in the same lines as well..
Akshay Kumar is delivering 100 grossers but before this year they were far and few…also,his films are not taking the opening that they used to take…it’s really high time he starts reviewing himself and releases a right film at a right time and most importantly does only 2 films per year…
Sad to see Shahrukh Khan missing out on FAN..I personally liked the film a lot..but nevertheless,expecting him to make a strong comeback with Raees..All is not lost yet for him..
akki all the way,,,, soon rustom will join 100 crore club and he will beat ajay because rustom looks like baby and airlift more content drven film
Singham and race 2 are not 100 crore grosser.
As per boi Ajay has given three 100 crore not 5….singham and sos are not 100 crore grosser.
Akki will have his 6th 100 crore with Rustom and soon will replace bhagoda King from no. 2

Next with sultan. Sirf naam hi kafi he.
What about ritesh deshmukh…??? He’s 5 films 100cr club…
@Sunny Akkiholic : Ajay Sir had 4 100 crs the year Akshay got his 1st entry.
@Choudhary ka chaand : no matter how you cry Ajay name will be above Akshay.
Respect should be reciprocal than your star gets respected.
@prashant Abhishek:
Dude, but being a criminal is million times better than being a Deshdrohi…. LOL.
For me Shah Rukh khan Aamir and Ajay Devagun are top notch. I don’t participate on comment but read alot and what I see are those targeting Shahrukh Salman and Ajay are not using real ids. No confidence. Salman leads well deserved even though I don’t find his movies so good apart from Bb and Ett. Srk follows Ajay next Akshay next Aamir Hrithik are supposed to be above Akshay and especially Aamir should be above Ajay.
@fan loogi:
Nobody can dare to clash with Bhai (even your bhagoda). Hence, how could he has given 100cr grossers with clash?? Koi clash karein toh sahi!!!
Actually the difference between your bhagoda and others are…..
Others stick to their original release date but bhagoda runs away from it.
Others can give 100cr grossers on non holiday too but bhagoda yet to touch even 70cr mark on non holiday period.
Others give 300cr grossers with content rich movies (eg- pk, BB etc) but bhagoda struggles to go past even 80cr mark with content rich movies (eg- billu 2).
@Bawlafan ha ha ha. Exactly dude. I agree with you. Koyla disaster devgn has only 2 100 cr movies thanks to South remakes and Rohit shetty. Otherwise you know how much tezz collected? Only 15 cr and Aakrosh collected only 13 cr. Ha ha ha. That is his aukaat. I will support you bashing that disaster star koyla devgn. He is nothing but a 0 star with only 0 fan following on this planet. Some of his Alian fans are commenting from Pluto and Mars to defend him. That’s his aukaat.
@Salman Flop King, you jerk your tingu salman is biggest loser none actor who survived in the industry because of South remakes and Masala movies. Only Aamir is real megastar not your 50 years old unmarried Virgin gorilla Khan who survived due to South remakes, Kabir khan, edx, and Masala movies. Without all that he is lower than Zayed Khan and Tushar kapoor only Aamir is Baap of whole bollywood who has been founder of each and every clUbuntu which your local gawaar star none actress lallu Khan has been chasing. Your bhojpurI lallu doesn’t have any talent to do movies like TZP, sarfarosh, DCH, Lagaan, ranging de Basanti, 3 idiots, PK because he is fattoo loser. Remove south remakes and EDX from his career than his movies can’t even cross 20 cr life time. Don’t even dare to compare Lallu monkey to Megastar AAMIR Khan.
@Salman flop king, you jerk, your flop star tingu is only surviving in the industry thanks to south reamakes, eid, kabir khan. otherwise tingu’s aukaat is marigold, main aur mrs khanna etc. do you even remember where tingu criminal was in last decade? his career graph is too low and poor to match to megastar and his Baap Aamir KHan. Aamir is baap of tingu salman ever since 1988. lallu monkey is only surviving due to bandar dance and rikshawala audience. otherwise he is nothing. Aamir will kick lallu monkey’s ass this year when dangal will smash all records and beat your lallu’s fooltan within weekend. Dangal will be highest grosser and fooltan will be lowest grosser of all time.
@Sunny Flopiholic, don’t worry your joker can never break ajay’s opening record. only ajay himself break his own record among the non khans actors. ajay is much much much bigger star than floppy kumar and much bigger fan following than joker kumar.
@Sunny Floppyholic, don’t worry your joker can never break ajay’s opening record. only ajay himself break his own record among the non khans actors. ajay is much much much bigger star than floppy kumar and much bigger fan following than joker kumar.
@Abhay Malhotra who is a a big disgrace to even choose Hrithik his 2nd favourite star in this comment box has used more than 8 different Ids to bash Ajay irony is the fool does not know jealousy and hatred words used in every comments leads to his own style of writing??
@Sunny Leone is responsible for 70% of fake ids especially those saying about #according to box office#??
@Neeraj is more of an AjY hater than Hrithik fan. Sorry bro we real Hrithik fans hardly disrespect Ajay so I think you should control you emotions for Ajay who is there where he is not even knowing you exist. Ironically the 2 so called Hrithik fans whose name begins with (N) are real disgrace to Hrithikian Gang club. Real Hrithik fans have no time to show insecurity at its peak.
@Arjun you bash Nipun for condemning ShivAy poster saying Ajay will beat Ranbir which is true but are you not the same person who bashes Ajay and call Ranbir Team captain for youngistaan? Chameleon beyond expectations? same with Akki you are supporting and before you always compliments Greek god? Are you well?
Don’t worry though
Hrithik will be at 3rd position by early 2017. Aamir Salman sir tight. But I wish for Shah rukh to bounce back because aside his fans I genuinely feel he is better than Both of them.
Most polished classy superstar= HRITHIK ROSHAN?
@Makkiholic The last time Indicine did a proper compilation of top 10 stars both worldwide and overseas Chakki was behind to of your most hated stars both worldwide and overseas?? let’s see after megabuster MJ and Superbuster Shivaay where will Akshay be hanging ??

@fan pk: only two movies of ajay sir are south remake 1) singham 2) sos and amir khans 1)ghajini south remake…2) 3idiots based on famous book by chetan bhagat 3) Dhoom3- franchise made popular by superstar hrithik and 4) pk – Inspired by famous movie omg….omg is considered as original movie …all movies of amir were solo release during christmas…so amir is lucky …its not because of him …its because of EDX, franchise , solo release and remake his movies have became blockbuster.
@Aisha 2.02. Excellent brilliant what an analysis @Aisha. Top class comment you nailed it!!!! Always a fan of your comment.
