Aamir Khan's film Ghajini was the first Bollywood film to cross the 100 crore net collections mark and create this exclusive club, thus marking Aamir and debutant Asin's first 100 crore film. Khan followed that up with 3 Idiots which became the second film to enter this club and Kareena Kapoor's first film to enter the club, making Kapoor, the second actress to enter the club. Salman Khan became the second actor to enter with Dabangg, Ready and Bodyguard. Ready became Asin's second 100 crore film. In fact Salman Khan's Bodyguard entered this club the fastest in just 7 days of release. Ajay Devgn was the third actor to enter this league with Golmaal 3. Kareena Kapoor's next two 100 crore films were Golmaal 3 and Ready. Shahrukh Khan managed to get a foothold in this league in late 2011 with Ra.One followed by Don 2.

This nett. collection does not include entertainment tax in the various Indian states. What's the significance of the number? For the trade, it's reassuring how robust the simple, old world box-office collection can be if the mix is right. First, it's earnings after paying entertainment tax that can be as high as 30%. Second, the money made overseas is over and above this. Third, it does not take into account other revenue streams that flow in from satellite rights, music and digital. Domestic net gross of Singham,Son of Sardaar and Race 2 are disputed. According to Box Office India, Singham nett grossed 97.75 crore (US$17.79 million) domestically. ,Son of Sardaar nett.grossed 88.50 crore (US$16.11 million) in four weeks. and Race 2 nett. grossed 90 crore (US$16.38 million) in two weeks.
