1000 Crore Club is an unofficial designation by the Indian film trade and the media, related to Indian language films that have grossed 1000 crore (10 billion Indian rupees)($135 million) or more in India or worldwide. Baahubali 2: The Conclusion grossed ₹1,430 crore in all languages in India itself,[1] while nett collection was ₹1,115 crore in all languages in India.[2][3][4] The Telugu-Tamil film Baahubali 2: The Conclusion became the first Indian film to gross over 1000 crore worldwide.[5] It was followed by the Aamir Khan starring Bollywood film Dangal, which is the highest grossing Indian film, expanding the club to 1700 crore,[6] 1800 crore[7] and 1900 crore,[8] before creating the ₹2,000 crore ($270 million) club,[9] and becoming the fifth highest-grossing non-English language film of all time. The 1000 crore club was preceded by the 100 crore club.

History

Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017), which released on 28 April 2017,[10] became the first Indian film to cross the 1,000 crore (US$120 million) and 1,500 crore (US$180 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$170 million).[11] Overseas, it is the highest-grossing Indian film in the United States ($21 million), 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.[12]

Dangal (2016), following its Chinese release on 5 May 2017,[13] became the highest-grossing Indian film and fifth highest-grossing non-English language film of all time, crossing ₹2,000 crore ($270 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).[14] Dangal is also the highest-grossing sports film of 2017, and Disney's fourth highest-grossing film of 2017.[15]

Dangal is the first Indian film to exceed $100 million[16] and 1,000 crore overseas,[17] crossing ₹1,400 crore ($189 million) in international markets, including ¥1.29 billion (US$200 million) in China[18][19] and ₹41 crore ($5.53 million) in Taiwan.[20] 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,[21][22] the highest-grossing non-Hollywood foreign film (surpassing Japanese anime film Your Name),[23] the leggiest box office release (cumulative gross 83 times its opening day haul,[22][24] surpassing Zootopia),[25] had the most consecutive days with a ¥10 million (US$2 million) gross (surpassing the 30 days of Transformers: Age of Extinction)[26] and $1 million gross[22] (38 days),[27] was the highest-grossing film in May 2017 (ahead of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales[28] and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2),[16] and is the year's second highest-grossing foreign film (after The Fate of the Furious).[29] In 47 days, the film had 44,445,270 admissions at the Chinese box office.[30] Aamir Khan's earnings from Dangal is estimated to be ₹300 crore ($40 million),[31] the highest payday for a non-Hollywood actor.[32]

When adjusted for inflation, the first Indian film to gross an adjusted ₹1,000 crore worldwide was Awaara (1951) untilll it was surpassed by Disco Dancer (1982). which was surpassed by "Baahubali 2: The Conclusion" (2017).[n 5] The first Indian film to gross an adjusted ₹1,000 crore overseas was Disco Dancer (1982), at the Soviet box office,[n 8] which made it the highest-grossing Indian film overseas up until it was surpassed by Dangal in 2017.
