List of highest-grossing Indian films

This is a ranking of the highest grossing Indian films which includes films from various languages based on the conservative global box office estimates as reported by reputable sources.
There is no official tracking of domestic box office figures within India, and Indian sites publishing data are frequently pressured to increase their domestic box office estimates.[1]
Indian films have been screened in markets around the world since the early 20th century.[2] As of 2003, there are markets in over 90 countries where films from India are screened.[3] During
the first decade of the 21st century, there was a steady rise in the ticket price, a tripling in the number of theaters and an increase in the number of prints of a film being released, which led to
a large increase in the box office collections.[4]
The majority of highest-grossing Indian films are Bollywood (Hindi) films. As of 2014, Bollywood represents 43% of the net box office revenue, while Tamil and Telugu cinema represent 36%,
and the rest of the regional cinema constitutes 21%.[5] See List of highest-grossing films in India for domestic gross figures and List of highest-grossing Indian films in overseas markets for

Notes:
1. Box office gross values of 66.75 billion were reported for Kabali in the first 13 days by several organisations including Financial Express and Indian Express,[107][108] which were more
than double the estimates made by other sources.[109] International Business Times (IBT) and Firstpost criticized these estimates as inflated, explaining the discrepancy as due in part to
the addition of "pre-release business" figures, such as music and satellite rights sales of 2 billion,[110] being factored into the box office sales totals.[109] Firstpost wrote, "More
conservative estimates put Kabalis collections at around Rs [3 billion] from worldwide ticket sales."[110] IBT's analysts in August 2016 estimated the film's worldwide gross total of its first
13 days at around 3.5 billion (US$55 million).[111]
Figures given in December 2016 by Financial Express indicated an estimated domestic gross of 215 crore and an international gross of 262 crore, which total 477 crore.[112] A figure
of USD$77 million given by Forbes in May 2017 converted to approximately 493499 crore.[113] According to International Business Times in October 2017, Kabali 's final worldwide
gross was around 286 crore (US$45 million).[114]
Telugu (Tollywood)
Telugu cinema, also known by its nickname "Tollywood" is a part of Indian cinema producing films in the Telugu language, in the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana and is centered in
