Lowest grossers of actors this decade (2011 – 2015)

Since the current decade begins from the year 2011, here’s a list of the lowest grossing films of each actors since the beginning of this decade.

Note: When two films of actors have collected the same amount, the older movie has been ranked higher.

17. Emraan Hashmi – 5 crore (Rush – 2012)

16. John Abraham – 10 crore (I Me Aur Main – 2013)

15. Ajay Devgn – 16 crore (Tezz – 2012)

14. Akshay Kumar – 21 crore (Joker – 2012)

13. Saif Ali Khan – 22 crore (Happy Ending – 2014)

12. Ranbir Kapoor – 23 crore (Bombay Velvet – 2015)

11. Arjun Kapoor – 23 crore (Aurangzeb – 2013)

10. Sushant Singh Rajput – 27 crore (Detective Byomkesh Bakshi – 2015)

9. Shahid Kapoor – 29 crore (Teri Meri Kahaani – 2012)

8. Ranveer Singh – 31 crore (Lootera – 2013)

7. Sidharth Malhotra – 35 crore (Hasee Toh Phasee – 2014)

6. Farhan Akhtar – 38 crore (Shaadi Ke Side Effects – 2014) Note: Wazir could replace this.

5. Varun Dhawan – 53 crore (Badlapur – 2015)

4. Aamir Khan – 93 crore (Talaash – 2012)

3. Hrithik Roshan – 93 crore (Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara – 2011)

2. Salman Khan – 112 crore (Jai Ho – 2014)

1. Shah Rukh Khan – 112 crore (Don 2 – 2011)

Some points:

  • Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan are the only two actors who have delivered 100 crore or higher grosser since the beginning of the decade.
  • Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan have been equally consistent with their films grossing 90 crore plus.
  • No Varun Dhawan film has grossed less than Rs 50 crore. He is the only young actor in the entire list, whose solo films have recovered investment at the box office. Almost all of them have been profitable films.
  • The lowest grossing oldest film for an actor is Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, which released at the very beginning of the decade in July 2011. Followed by Don 2. Older films have a disadvantage because of lower number of screens and ticket prices.

  • SRK tops the list .. His lowest grossing movie is the highest grosser comapred to other actor’s movies.
    Even if you calculate the criteria on Worldwide basis, King Khan’s lowest grosser would still lead the list by a distance.
    King for a reason.

  • Srk d King.
    Waiting for #Fan
    Salman s d undisputed king of dis decade though
    But SRK s special as always.
    No no s doesn’t effect that.

  • I think, Dilwale underperformed because of SRK’s underestimation of Bajirao Mastani and overconfidence he had, developed over the years by beating everyone during clashes earlier. This was a good lesson for all. Dilwale wasn’t a bad movie at all. But since people had a choice they opted for BM. I hope Raees doesn’t clash with Sultan.

  • Now Crap-tards will say that Jai Ho was a non-holiday release …!

    They should know that Jai Ho released more than 2 yrs after Don 2 ; it released in more 1300 screens than Don 2 with higher ticket prices – still it failed to beat Don 2 …!

    Don ko pakadna mushkil hi nahin …

  • Watched Awarapan starring emraan hashmi… A classic.. Beautifully potrayed.. Fantastic acting.. Intense looking.. In love with the cinematography ensued by mohit suri..

    Easily the best film of Mohit suri..
    And the best film of last decade..

  • Joker was a mistake Akki committed,should have never worked with that idiot Shirish Kunder..Also he did’nt promoted the film and dissociated from the film before its release!

    2nd lowest grosser of Akki would be 46crs for Thank You (2011),I guess!

  • Srk s beyond dis comparisons
    Because he is d only actor who s consistent from last 25 yes.
    No actor ever do that n no 1 will b.
    The king of all seasons.
    Waiting for #Fan
    15th apr will b d Biggest event for us .

  • Nice way to defend SRK @indicine
    from these you will say that’s why he is king of bollywood .
    But yes SRK has good fan following he should focus on good films I am backing to his films like Anand L Rai film and Badshah Returns by Abbas Mastan .Raees and Fan and Gauri Shindes Walk and Talk are not too interested

  • Emraan Hashmi is a disaster king. From next time please refrain from mentioning him along with 6 A-list superstars and next-gen superstars like ranbir kapoor and varun.

  • No one has played an intense character so well .. The scene where emraan digs a grave for himself was gooseflesh… And i cried so much at the climax.. A person can’t be so alone.. So destructed from inside than emraan hashmi from Awarapan… ‘Toh Phir Aao’ the best song of all time…

  • According BOI

    Jai Ho – 109 Cr

    Don2 – 106 Cr

    Jai Ho > Don2

    According Officially Figure

    Jai Ho – 116 Cr
    Don 2 – 112 Cr

    Jai Ho > Don2

  • The current decade started from 2010 so if we take that into account than
    Hrithik – Guzaarish
    SRK – MNIK
    Ajay – Aakrosh
    Salman – Veer

    I am really happy to see ZNMD on the 3rd spot . It was released on a Non Holiday in 2011 and did 93 CR in India . It also faced competition from Singham in the 2nd week . In terms of verdict it is the highest among all these movies as it was a Superhit in India . This movie deserves to be in the 100 CR Club but more than that i am happy that many people have loved ZNMD over the last 4 years . It is easily the Best movie among these 15 movies . Even after 4 years it is the 4th Highest Grossing Movie of Hrithik after K3, BB and Agneepath . Take a Bow Hrithik !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • @Saksham, we did research beginning of decade on wikipedia before posting this article. Here’s what it states

      “Because the common calendar starts with year 1, its first full decade is the years 1 to 10, the second decade from 11 to 20, and so on. So although the “1960s” comprises the years 1960 to 1969, the “197th decade” spans 1961 to 1970.”

      @Balika Bad-hu, decade is 10 years.

  • @shreya ranbir is the disaster king. Ranbir is faltu Bgrade actor n makes crap lyk Adhm , JJ and disaster Tamasha.

  • @shreya. Hey babes, i know u are a disguised Nautanki king Ranbir fan… Who has vanished completely from btown… The disastrous JJ , adhm has frustated the shit out of u ..

  • Dear Indicine,Talaash did not release in 2013.

    Also I am wondering that why didn’t you guys write an article for Aamir Khan when he crossed the 16m marks on twitter?
    Do you do that for only Mr.Shah rukh Khan?

    It’s a simple question.I am an Aamir fan and I’ve never said that you are baised towards a particular actor.But this nature of yours make me feel sad.I feel sad because I love your site.I love the way you write.

    Sorry if I am wrong.May be you guys have not checked Aamir Khan’s twitter a/c yet. :)

  • There should be a *Note Point added ::

    SRK is the only actor to have all his films released during festive period (EDX) in this decade!

  • @Indicine
    You are saying Wazir can replace SKSE for Farhan Akhtar’s career.
    But how???Wazir releases in 2016,between 2016-2020(A new decade).

    BTW great post…………Thank you Indicine

  • ZNMD did 93 cr with just 1800 screens in 2011….Jai Ho is the prime example of Salman’s BO power without Eid or Diwali. He had 3900 screens, it was in 2014, mass / masala appeal and still only 112 Cr. Same goes with Aamir with Talaash…thats what happens if he doesn’t do an X’Mas release. Talaash released in 2500 screens in 2012 and only collected 93 cr in India.
