Jawan
Box office collection: Rs 644 crore/Rs 6.44 billion
Jawan started the Rs 600 Crore Club (Rs 6 billion) for Bollywood.
The Shah Rukh Khan-starrer released on a non-holiday and not just got a record
breaking opening but also ended up scoring the biggest weekend and then the biggest first week ever.
Director Atlee made a smash entry into Bollywood with this masala movie, which set new benchmarks for this genre in Bollywood.
Pathaan
Box office collection: Rs 543.05 crore/Rs 5.43 billion
But it was Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan that started it all.
The star returned to the big screen after more than four years and all eyes were on how well he would deliver.
Producer Aditya Chopra and
Director Siddharth Anand made sure they came up with a classy, commercial entertainer.
With bravura acts from John Abraham and Deepika Padukone enhancing the film, Pathaan became Bollywood’s first 500 Crore Club (Rs 5 billion) and set the tone for the year.
Animal
Box office collection: Rs 540 crore/Rs 5.4 billion (still playing)
Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal seemed to come out of syllabus and ended up finding a place in the Top 3.
Originally slated for an August release, it moved out of the race when Gadar 2 and OMG 2 were clashing on the Independence Day weekend.
This also gave the team good time to come up with an excellent marketing and promotional campaign.
