Jawan (2023)

Despite political controversies and boycott trend, Shah Rukh-Deepika gave a stern response to naysayers with their on-screen chemistry in the Siddharth Anand directorial. The audiences also appreciated John Abraham's return as antagonist post YRF's Dhoom. It became the first blockbuster of 2023 and ended the dry-run in Bollywood since pandemic.

Thugs of Hindostan

Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan's film Thugs of Hindostan amassed ₹50.75 crore in India on its opening day, according to Sacnilk. Despite being a box office disaster, the action-drama was able to get a huge start due to Aamir and Amitabh sharing screen space for the first time.
