One might ask how come Salman Khan is on this list. It is because his ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ was so successful in Indian cinema for its content that the movie is prone to collect another Rs 50 crores easily if it is rereleased in theatres again in the future as it now stands at Rs 969 crores and will easily enter Rs 1000 crore club.
