Hum

Jumma Chumma had already become the craze of nation. We were not surprised when Hum released and got the biggest ever opening for a film in the history of Indian cinema. But the collection started dipping from third week onwards but still Megastar Amitabh Bachchan carried this film entirely on his mighty shoulders and made it a successful venture. This very highly priced film did business of about 1.5 crores in Bombay and 1.2 crores in rest parts of the country. The film topped the box-office in South India where it's business is even little bit better than year's biggest grosser Saajan. 

Henna

Making in since 1974, the film finally released this year. This was the dream project of Raj Kapoor. Randhir Kapoor's ambitious attempt to step in Randhir Kapoor's shoes proved very successful. The film was priced at 40 lacs to 45 lacs per major circuits and did business of 70 lacs to 80 lacs in all major circuits. This film proved a much needed hit for Rishi Kapoor who has been going through a low phase.

Patthar Ke Phool

The music of this film had already become a big hit but the film did not do as expected business but still it should be counted as one of the hit picture of the year. The film did business of about 70 lacs in Bombay and 70-80 lacs in Southern circuits. But the film couldn't do same magic in other territories especially in North where it is a disaster but the film proved successful in big cities. Raveena Tandon , yet another debutant. 

Hafta Bandh

It did exceedingly well in Maharashtra but the film has not done the same kind of business in other parts of India. Outside Maharashtra, it's just an average fare. But since this film is a moderately priced, it should be counted as a hit for Jackie Shroff, whose stock these days are going higher day by day. 

Saudagar

It opened to thumping up response on it's opening day. The story of this film is as same as Sanam Bewafa and Kurbaan but it is made on a far grander scale than both movies.
