Mumbai, November 16 - It took one big shot for the Bollywood film industry to regain its lost kingdom. Akshay Kumar-starrer "Sooryavanshi", which is the biggest Bollywood film in the last 18 months, has become the highest-grossing Indian film of 2021 at the worldwide box office.

Rohit Shetty-directed cop drama has grossed ₹ 234 crores worldwide over 11 days and surpassed Thalapathy Vijay's Tamil blockbuster "Master", which grossed approx ₹ 223 crores at the worldwide box office. "Sooryavanshi" has netted ₹ 155.73 crores, which is the highest for an Indian film in 2021.



Internationally, "Sooryavanshi" has grossed ₹ 50.37 crores so far, which is again the biggest overseas box office number for an Indian film in the current year. Rajinikanth's "Annaatthe" is at the second position with approx ₹ 45 crores overseas. Over ₹ 150 crore-budgeted, "Sooryavanshi" is the first ₹ 200 crores grosser Bollywood film since Ajay Devgn's "Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior" in January 2020.

Co-produced by Reliance Entertainment, Rohit Shetty, Dharma Productions, and Cape Of Good Films, "Sooryavanshi" is the 5th highest net collection film for Akshay Kumar after Housefull 4, Mission Mangal, Good Newwz, and 2.0. For Katrina Kaif, who plays a female lead opposite Akshay, it is the 6th highest-netted film and likely to enter the top 5 at the end of its box office run.

"Sooryavanshi", which also stars Ajay Devgn and Ranveer Singh in the extended cameos, has been an important film for Bollywood and one would say, it has passed the tough test. Bollywood will hope to keep the same momentum with the upcoming releases, such as "Bunty And Babli 2" (Nov. 19), John Abraham's "Satyameva Jayate 2" (Nov. 25), and Salman Khan's "Antim: The Final Truth" (Nov. 26).
