Highest-grossing Bollywood films in India

The following is a non-definitive list of the all-time highest-grossing Bollywood films, by nominal value. Since this list is not adjusted for inflation, it tends to favour films in more recent years, with all but two of the films in the top 30 being released after 2000. Films released prior to 1994 do not appear in the list because inflation, population size and ticket purchasing trends make direct comparisons inaccurate. Figures are given in Indian rupees.
