SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali 2 proved its 'Baahubal' by collecting Rs 1749 crore at the worldwide box office and emerged as the second-highest-grossing Indian movie after Dangal.

KGF Chapter 2 is another tentpole movie that is part of this coveted club. The movie was a rage during its release. Starring Yash, Sanjay Dutt, and Raveena Tandon in lead, the gangster action-drama collected Rs 1191 crore at the worldwide box office.
Directed by Prashanth Neel, KGF Chapter 2 enjoys the title of highest-grossing Kannada movie but it was soon dethroned by Kantara from the top position.
5. Jawan
Jawan is a very special movie for all the SRKians. The movie presented Shah Rukh Khan in his most massy avatar. Helmed by Tamil filmmaker, Atlee Kumar, the movie was a big success.

Jawan is among the most profitable ventures of Indian cinema.
6. Pathaan
Pathaan marked the return of Shah Rukh Khan to the movies after a sabbatical of 5 years. Fans were charged up to celebrate their Superstar on the big screen and that's what its box office performance proved.
The Siddharth Anand-directed spy-action movie collected a total of Rs 1035 crore at the worldwide box office, emerging as a big success.
7. Kalki 2898 AD
Coming from the creative mind of Nag Ashwin, Kalki 2898 AD is set in a post-apocalyptic world and is also inspired by Hindu scriptures. This epic sci-fi movie is one of the most expensive Indian movies ever made.
Starring Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone, and Disha Patani, the movie emerged as the highest-grossing movie of this year. It collected around Rs 985 crore worldwide and shied away slightly from hitting the Rs 1000 crore mark.
