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

We are set to say goodbye to 2018 and while we witnessed content-driven films working wonders at the box office, the 3 Khans disappoint us with their mega-budget ventures. So overall, we must say, this year was nailed by gen-next stars and their box office numbers are sufficient enough to prove it. So, let's check out the films which gathered the crowds at the ticket windows. (Also Read: #BLBestof2018: Katrina Kaif, Sonam Kapoor are some of the fashion offenders 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.

ISRO shortlists 15 firms for transfer of EV battery tech

ISRO shortlists 15 firms for transfer of EV battery tech This move could make EVs cheaper, since imported Li ion batteries constitute the big expense factor of EVs. Isro has shortlisted 15 firms to transfer the manufacturing technology of lithium-ion (Li ion) batteries for electric vehicles (EV). This move could make EVs cheaper, since imported Li ion batteries constitute the big expense factor of EVs. “We have communicated to the shortlisted firms that they will have to give a one-time fee of `1 crore. We have avoided firms with exposure to foreign equity in identifying the qualifying industrial houses or start-ups,” S Somanath, director, Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC), the rocket sciences node of ISRO, told FE. “The final move will depend on their response,” he said, declining to name the firms. As many as 141 companies had applied for request for qualifications (RFQs) in connection with the technology transfer. It was a small battery of 12 scientists in VSSC in Thiruvananth...

Sóller hike followed by a healthy vegan lunch

We got a group of friends together (of various ages and fitness levels) to hike around the hills surrounding the Mallorcan town of Sóller, in the northwest of the island. There are many quite easy trails but usually, it involves a bit of hiking up and downhill. We began our walk at the first roundabout after the tunnel and climbed for about 25 minutes uphill after that it was reasonably flat for the next hour or so. The final part was decent into the town of Sóller where we had booked a private vegan brunch for our group. Barbara and Martjin opened Ecocirer in March 2018 as a vegan hotel with 6 bedrooms in the town of Sóller. It is the ideal accommodation for a family celebration if you would like to enjoy healthy vegan food with plenty of activities to get you out into the beautiful nature surrounding the picturesque town. The expe...
