Highest-grossing Bollywood films in overseas

3 Idiots
3 Idiots is the highest grossing Bollywood film with reecord overseas gross of US$ 25 milllion

Since this list is not adjusted for inflation, it tends to favour films in more recent years with nearly ninety-nine percent of the films in the top 30 being released after 2000. Films released prior to 1995 do not appear in the list because inflation, population size, limited global audience of Bollywood films and ticket purchasing trends make direct comparisons inaccurate.[19][20]
