Time and again, we have written about it and it’s also an undeniable fact that not critical acclaim but getting box office numbers are what lead to the major success of Bollywood films. Aamir Khan became the trendsetter when he inaugurated the Rs 100 crore club with Ghajini way back in 2008 and now we have a Rs 500 crore film in the form of Baahubali. Despite reaching such a huge milestone, the Rs 100 crore club has not lost its charm as it is still the favourite club of filmmakers and actors. Last year, we had 13 films which crossed the mark and now we have predicted which films will achieve this milestone at the ticket windows this year. So, let's check them out...
Uri: The Surgical Strike
The Vicky Kaushal and Yami Gautam-starrer revenge war film has already crossed the Rs 70 crore mark in its first week and looking at the current response, we are expecting Uri to enter the club by the end of its second week.
Gully Boy
After the humongous success of Padmaavat and Simmba, Ranveer Singh is currently at the peak of his career. His rapper avatar in Gully Boy is garnering rave reviews and with Alia Bhatt in a key role, we are sure that this film will be a box office success.
Total Dhamaal
The Dhamaal franchise is back and its grander in every aspect thanks to the ensemble star cast which comprises of Ajay Devgn, Anil Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Jaaved Jaaferi and many more. With such big names in one film, the comic caper is surely expected to set the box office on fire.
Kesari
Akshay Kumar is set to give us a Holi treat with Kesari. Produced by Karan Johar, the period war drama is surely in everyone's watchlist.
Luka Chuppi
After delivering one of the biggest surprise hits of 2018 with Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, Kartik Aaryan will entertain us with another rom-com titled Luka Chuppi. Apart from his comic-timing, his chemistry with Kriti Sanon is expected to be the highlight of the film.
De De Pyaar De
Featuring Ajay Devgn, Tabu and Rakul Preet Singh, the urban rom-com has the potential to become one of the money-spinners due to its star cast and relevant content for the audience.
Kalank
The multi-starrer period drama featuring Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Sanjay Dutt, Madhuri Dixit, Aditya Roy Kapur and Sonakshi Sinha is one of the hyped films of the year and we hope the buzz will show the results at the ticket windows.
Student of the year 2
After the grand success of Baaghi 3, Tiger Shroff will come to steal hearts of all of the young generation as the stylish student in KJo's Student of the Year 2. The college-drama film will also mark the acting debut of Ananya Pandey and Tara Sutaria.
Bharat
Having Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif in one frame is enough for Bharat to achieve this feat. In fact, the film will enter the Rs 100-crore club on its opening weekend itself.
Super 30
The Greek God of Bollywood, Hrithik Roshan, will come after two years on the silver screen with Super 30. With its amazing first look, we are sure that the handsome star will attract audience to cinema halls.
Saaho
After the humongous success of Baahubali, Prabhas is back with Saaho and we are sure that it will set new benchmarks.
Chhichhore
Dangal director Nitesh Tiwari is coming with his next venture titled Chhichhore featuring Sushant Singh Rajput and Shraddha Kapoor. We think the name of the filmmaker is enough to draw cinegoers to the theatres.
Untitled Hrithik -Tiger film
Two dancing sensations and superstars - Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, in one stylish film. Expect a thunder at the box office!
Housefull 4
This Diwali, there will be a laughter riot as the fourth installment of the Housefull franchise will make a grand entry at the box office. Like its previous parts, we are sure that it will tickle at the funny bone of the audience.
ABCD 3
The third installment of dance franchise has just went on the floor and we are sure that Varun and Shraddha's dance moves will set the box office on fire.
Taanaji - The Unsung Warrior
One more period drama will roar at the ticket windows, which is Ajay Devgn-starrer Taanaaji - The Unsung Warrior. The first look has already given us the confidence that it will be a blockbuster.
Sooryavanshi
The glimpse of Akshay Kumar's Sooryavanshi in Simmba impressed us to the core. With the combo of two massy entertainers - Akki and Rohit Shetty, expect whistles and claps in the cinema halls.
Brahmastra
The action-adventure drama has been in news for quite some time now. And we hope our excitement and wait will be worth this big-ticket film. After watching Ranbir-Alia's offscreen chemistry, audience is damn excited to watch them together on the big canvas.
