All Time Blockbuster is a loosely used term in Bollywood today. Even a film like Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani has been declared as an All Time grosser even though the film wasn’t close to as big a hit as films like 3 Idiots, Ghajini or Dabangg.
Below, we have a full list of 17 ‘All Time Blockbusters’ in the history of the Hindi Film Industry. Chennai Express might soon join the list if the film manages to collect more than 210 crores.
- Kismet (1943) – 1 crore
- Rattan (1944) – 1 crore
- Mother India (1957) – 4 crore
- Mughal-e-Azam (1960) – 5.5 crore
- Sholay (1975) – 15 crore
- Jai Santoshi Maa (1975) – 5 crore
- Ram Teri Ganga Maili (1985) – 9.5 crore
- Maine Pyar Kiya (1989) – 14 crore
- Aankhen (1993) – 14 crore
- Hum Aapke Hain Kaun (1994) – 70 crore
- Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) – 61 crore
- Raja Hindustani (1996) – 48 crore
- Kuch Kuch Hota Hai – 45.5 crore
- Gadar Ek Prem Katha (2001) - 76 crore
- Ghajini (2008) – 116 crore
- 3 Idiots (2009) – 202 crore
- Dabangg (2010) – 143 crore
- Chennai Express (2013) – 227 crore
Coming to the actors with 2 or more All Time Blockbusters to their credit, its Salman Khan right at the top once again with 4 all time grossers to his credit (3 if his extended special appearance in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai is not taken into consideration). Salman is followed by Aamir Khan who has three films to his credit.
Shahrukh Khan is the only other actor with 2 or more All Time Blockbusters (3 if Chennai Express continues its good run). Surprisingly, Amitabh Bachchan, one of the biggest stars in history, doesn’t have a single solo All-Time grosser to his credit (Sholay was a two-hero film).
- Salman Khan – 4 Films (Maine Pyaar Kiya, Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Dabangg)
- Aamir Khan – 3 Films (Raja Hindustani, Ghajini and 3 Idiots)
- Shahrukh Khan – 3 Films (Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Chennai Express)

Nice talk with you.
Bye.. :)
Suroop aamir was not appreciated, i think you forget his Sarfarosh, the way he did that role is fabulous as there was no media hype so that role note talked too much that time, and for CDI i like srk he did great in that movie but you forget that year most appreciated role was played by little darsheel, you forgot that was made by Aamir, so when aamir can make a kid much stronger impact. So how can you under estimate him, and swades wasn’t too appreciated neither by critics nor by audience as that was flop, and even his mnik role wasn’t too appreciated like cdi, so your srk made movie with more universal appeal, and for variety i will tell you something interesting follow my next comment.
Srk did biopic Asoka flopped and his role not appreciated by any one, same way aamir did mangal pandey was also a dissappointment but his role appreciated and it was 3rd highest grosser that year, now an art kind of role paheli flopped, aamir lagaan created history, srk done a tapori kinda role in josh was a average, aamir’s ghulam was a hit and rangeela was average but his role of munna being appreciated till now, Aamir was also being appreciated and loved by both critics and audience when he did ghajini and raja hindustani, while srk oso and ce both rejected by critics though both his movies clicked hugely but srk performance won’t be remembered, aamir romantic movies like qsqt,dil,hhrpk,dhkmn also being appreciated by audience too. Srk was only having slide edge for his negative role for baazigar, darr but because aamir not done any negative character like that so can’t compare but in fanaa he did negative role and it was superhit and just wait and watch for d3.
My only motive you to tell that aamir is not an over rated actor might be you don’t like him its your choice but not to force other to think like you with those kind of comments.
HEY GUYS : As wee see ur cmbination bewten the actors is by busines then salu is a gud businesman as amir khan too.bt it is the fact the GREAT SRk is the only actor whose mvies get great reputatin worldwide .he is a real DON now chenai has profed his labour .I MEET HM IN MY LIFE AND I LOVE HM MAY THE HAPINES BE AROUND ON HM I LOVE U SRK
hey indicine,you made 2 great mistake.please correct it.according to box office India,hum maine pyar kiya is not an atbb movie.also kkhh is not sdalman’s film lol as you didn’t count sholay as amitabh’s atbb.if count mpk as an atbb than you must count k3g,mohabbatein as 2 SRK’s atbb.by the way CE is already an atbb.so after correction
SRK-3 atbb(DDLJ,KKHH,CE)
amir-3 atbb(rj,ghajini,3idots)
salman-2 atbb(hahk,dabang)
SRK is compared to bigb and dillip kumar.so comparing sallu,amir with him is a shameful thing.and comparing hr with him is an impossible thing.all of you know SRK is the only actor which alwys mde comparison like SRK vs sallu,amir,hr,akshay,ajay.but why it didn’t like sallu vs amir,sallu vs hr,amir vs akshay.I think you understand the thing.he is the only one who made same atbb with amir,highest blockbusters,super hits,hits and least flops.for which he is called the king of bollywood,also king of BO for 21 years and also overseas having 7/ top 10 and many more and will remain the king forever.bcos he didn’t act like anybody he acts from his heart and enters and win every single of billions of heart which make him the world’s biggest star having highest fans in the world.
You just copied BOI. Do you have any research of your own? Amitabh’s Muqaddar ka Sikandar, Amar Akbar Anthony and Coolie were biggest hits of their times. Film Information used the words All Time Earners for them. He does not have just Sholay!
d2-80cr oso-84cr rnbdj-86cr actually boo lesser the data of oso and kkhh-53cr rh-48cr
well dabangg is not atbb
