Best of 2015: Top Bollywood films of the year

Best of 2015: Top Bollywood films of the year
Wednesday, December 30, 2015 13:00 IST
It was a mixed bag for Bollywood in 2015 where content-driven films found space while superstars-led movies earned big bucks, with the year ending on a high note after the success of Shah Rukh Khan-Kajol starrer "Dilwale" and Sanjay Leela Bhansali's "Bajirao Mastani".

'Bajirao Mastani'

Stars were seen experimenting in the big budget format as Salman ditched his action-man image to play a simpleton in "Bajrangi Bhaijaan". He had another hit in "Prem Ratan Dhan Payo", which was big on nostalgia so was Shah Rukh's box office outing "Dilwale", whose promotions were centered around his iconic chemistry with Kajol.

The unusual father-daughter chemistry of Amitabh Bachchan and Deepika Padukone in "Piku" was loved by the audience, Akshay Kumar's thriller "Baby", based on covet operations and S S Rajamouli's epic historical film "Baahubali" too received appreciation from people. Ajay Devgn-starrer "Drishyam" was also a major success.

'Bajrangi Bhaijaan'

The year, however, truly belonged to Deepika as she had three back-to-back hits with "Piku", "Tamasha" and "Bajirao Mastani". Kangana Ranaut's dual performance in "Tanu Weds Manu Returns" raked in big moolah at the box office but her second outing "Katti Batti" failed to replicate the success of her earlier release.

'Piku'

Small budget movies like "NH10", "Manjhi - The Mountain Man," "Dum Laga Ke Haisha", "Masaan", "Titli" and "Angry Indian Goddesses" were lauded for their content. Chaitanya Tamhane's Marathi film "Court" was one of the most appreciated films of the year. It won the National Award for the best picture and was also announced as India's official entry to the 88th Annual Academy Awards in the Best Foreign Language Film category.
