In the last few years, there has been a big change in the kinds of movies that come out of India. People can get content from anywhere in the world because there are so many digital platforms. This meant that we needed to improve the quality of our content. The biggest benefit of this was that it gave producers, directors, and actors more freedom to take risks in their work and try to make movies that aren’t like the masala movies we’ve been watching for years.

Shahid Kapoor played a man with anger problems who was also an alcoholic in the recent hit movie Kabir Singh. His character was rude to women and thought he deserved everything in life. Actors used to avoid this kind of role because they were afraid it would hurt their reputation with the public. Shahid, however, took the risk, and the movie’s box office numbers say it all. Today, we decided to make a list of the 35 highest grossing Indian movies that have made the most money.
