#BLBestOf2018: Sanju, Padmaavat, Baaghi 2 - Here are the biggest hits of the year

Sanju - Rs 341 crore

After the debacle of Jagga Jasoos, Ranbir made a roaring comeback with Rajkumar Hirani's Sanju. The biographical drama which was based on the controversial life of Sanjay Dutt became the biggest hit of the year and needless to say, we are expecting the film to win every big award.

Padmaavat - Rs 302 crore

The magnum-opus went through several backlashes and criticism before hitting the screens. But the powerful narrative of Sanjay Leela Bhansali and the amazing performances of Ranveer, Deepika and Shahid made this period film a huge box office success.

2.0 (Hindi) - Rs 180 crore

No one would have imagined that the Khiladi of Bollywood Akshay Kumar would get his biggest hit through his Tamil debut. While the film opened to monstrous response in the south due to Rajinikanth's star-power, it was Akki's presence which helped the film to perform well in the northern circuits.

Baaghi 2 - Rs 165.50 crore

After giving back to back disappointments with A Flying Jatt and Munna Michael, Junior Shroff came back on the silver screen and did what he does the best. The masala action entertainer also starring Disha Patani became a huge single-screen hit of the year.

Badhaai Ho - Rs 135.60 crore

Post impressing us with an experimental venture like AndhaDhun, Ayushmann Khurrana came with a slice-of-life family entertainer Badhaai Ho. With its impressive and heart-winning content, the small-budget venture turned out to be the biggest surprise success of 2018.
