1000 Crore Club is an unofficial designation by the Indian film trade and media, related to Indian language films that have grossed 1000 crore (10 billion Indian rupees or $135 million) or more either within India or worldwide. It is preceded by the 100 Crore Club. Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017) became the first Indian film to gross over ₹1,000 crore worldwide.[1] It grossed ₹1,430 crore across all languages in India and grossed ₹1,810 crore worldwide.[2] It stands as the Highest-grossing film in India domestically till date.[3][4][5]

It was followed by Dangal, which is the Highest-grossing Indian film, expanding the club to ₹1,900 crore (including domestic gross of ₹511 crore),[6] before creating the 2,000 crore (US$240 million) club,[7] and becoming the fifth Highest-grossing non-English language film of that time. In 2022, two films released in the span of a month, RRR[a] and KGF: Chapter 2,[12] grossed over ₹1,000 crore at the global box office. The club expanded with films like Pathaan (2023),[13] Jawan (2023),[14] Kalki 2898 AD (2024),[15] and Pushpa 2: The Rule (2024),[16] with the latter being the fastest film to achieve the record.

History

[edit | edit source]

Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, which released on 28 April 2017,[17] became the first Indian film to cross the 1,000 crore (US$153.56 million) and 1,400 crore (US$214.98 million) marks, in May 2017, and briefly became the highest-grossing Indian film worldwide, before being overtaken by Dangal. Baahubali 2 is the highest-grossing film in India, where it has grossed 1,417 crore (US$217.59 million).[citation needed] Overseas, it is the highest-grossing Indian film in the United States ($21 million),[18] where it became the first Indian film to cross $20 million, as well as becoming the first Indian film to gross over $10 million in the United Arab Emirates.[19]

Dangal (2016), following its Chinese release on 5 May 2017,[20] became the Highest-grossing Indian film of all time and fifth highest-grossing non-English language film of that time, crossing ₹2,000 crore ($307 million) worldwide, making it the first Indian film to gross $300 million worldwide and one of the top 30 highest-grossing 2016 films (surpassing the $299.5 million gross of Alice Through the Looking Glass).[21] Dangal is also the highest-grossing sports film of 2017, and Disney's fourth highest-grossing film of 2017.[22]

Dangal is the first Indian film to exceed $100 million nearly 1000 crore overseas[23] crossing ₹1,400 crore ($215 million) in international markets, including ¥1.29 billion (US$191 million) in China[24][25] and ₹41 crore ($6.3 million) in Taiwan.[citation needed] Its overseas gross in China more than doubled its domestic gross of $84.4 million in India. In China, Dangal became the 16th highest-grossing film of all time, the 8th highest-grossing foreign film,[26][27] the highest-grossing non-Hollywood foreign film (surpassing Japanese anime film Your Name),[28] the leggiest box office release (cumulative gross 83 times its opening day haul,[27][29] surpassing Zootopia),[30] had the most consecutive days with a ¥10 million (US$1 million) gross (surpassing the 30 days of Transformers: Age of Extinction)[31] and $1 million gross[27] (38 days),[32] was the highest-grossing film in May 2017 (ahead of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales[33] and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2),[23] and is the year's second highest-grossing foreign film (after The Fate of the Furious).[34] In 47 days, the film had 44,445,270 admissions at the Chinese box office.[35] Aamir Khan's earnings from Dangal is estimated to be ₹300 crore ($46 million),[36] the highest payday for a non-Hollywood actor.[37]

S.S. Rajamouli, the director of Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017) and RRR (2022), is the only Indian film director to direct two films that earned over ₹1000 crore. Shah Rukh Khan, the lead actor of Pathaan (2023) and Jawan (2023), and Prabhas, the lead actor of Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017) and Kalki 2898 AD (2024), are the only two actors to lead two films each that earned over ₹1000 crore.
