Bollywood’s biggest blockbuster Dangal (Rs 197.53 Cr.) took 4th place after Sultan and Tiger Zinda Hai and set several Box office records not only at domestic also international. The film earned around Rs 1100 Crore in China which seems unbreakable for the next few years.
The rest of the biggies in this elite group of Hindi films are, Ranbir Kapoor’s Sanju (Rs 202 Cr.) Shah Rukh Khan starrer Happy New Year (Rs 157.57 crore), Aamir Khan’s PK (Rs183.09 crore), Chennai Express (Rs 156.50 crore),) and Krrish 3 (Rs 166.52 crore).
