With a total collection of Rs 542.22 crore at the box office, Akshay’s dominance at the box office has been his career-best.
Biggest hit: War (Rs 291.97 crore)
This year was dominated by Hrithik Roshan as the actor managed to impress the audience with some really stellar performances in ‘Super 30’ and his high octane action film ‘War’ which also featured Tiger Shroff in a pivotal role. While ‘Super 30’ collected Rs 147 crore and ‘War’ leaving an impression at the box office table with Rs 291.97 crore, Hrithik’s film managed to collect a stupendous total of Rs 438.97 crore in 2019 itself.
Biggest hit: Kabir Singh (Rs 276.34 crore)
Shahid Kapoor’s remake of Telugu film ‘Arjun Reddy’ which had featured Vijay Deverakonda in the lead role managed to give ‘Kabir Singh’ his own touch and make it his own.

The film went on to collect a miraculous figure of Rs 276.34 crore at the box office and also registered as Shahid biggest solo release of his career.
