  Today, he is the no.1 superstar ruling the roost, commanding a tremendously high price. His films do well nationally and internationally. The teenager heartthrob with a huge fan following.

Blast From The Past : 1997 Box Office Report By ScreenIndia

  BORDER  It is only right that in the golden jubilee of India’s independence the top grosser of the year is a film which resulted in a wave of patriotic fervour across the country. JP Dutta’s Border was, in the director’s own words, “a foray into history” inspired by the heart-rending, eye-witness account of his brother who had been an air-force pilot in the 1971 Indo-Pak war. It was an extravagant gamble for a first time producer because war movies in our country are rare. But, always stubborn and uncompromising when it came to box-office dos and don’t, JP went ahead and even paid to see his dream on screen. Real locations were visited, real tanks bursted and real forces deployed to recreate history. There were the inevitable skirmishes with the censors and a delay of 2-3 weeks. The film was finally released on June 13. Three trade papers (with the exception of Complete Cinema) dismissed the film as a no-no and predicted that it would only add to JP Dutta’s growing list of flops. Wit

  Hum Saath-Saath Hain  top hit of '99 2000 Jan  Digital Hidustan Times Hum Saath-Saath Hain ,  Sooraj Barjatya 's latest paean to  Bharatiya sanskriti , has become the highest grosser of the last year, overtaking  David Dhawan 's  Biwi No.1  at the box-office. While  Dhawan 's movie had grossed over Rs 25 crores in it's silver-jubilee run, the  Rajshri  multi-starrer has almost reached the 42 crore mark, by its ninth week, thanks partly to a whopping 4 million dollars collected in the overseas territory.  HSSH  is the first ever Bollywood venture to break into the US Top 10 charts, and did better in the US than such Hollywood blockbusters like  Eyes Wide Shut  and  Blair Witch Project . In the UK too,  HSSH  broke into the top 10, following the successful trend established by last year's  Dil Se  and  Kuch Kuch Hota Hai .

 1997’s top-earning entertainers Every Indian, it seems, is a born entertainer," remarked Satyajit Ray once, observing, during a break in shooting, a child mimicking one of the lead actors in the studio’s corridor. But that isn’t why listing the richest entertainers in India is such a complex and difficult task. The Indian income reporting system-unlike in the West-lacks transparency. Add to that the problem of unaccounted wealth. There are often no standard rates that an entertainer charges. A musician may charge $40,000 (Rs 17 lakh) for a performance abroad while his fees in India for the same could be Rs 25-30 lakh. A top cricketer’s appearance for a casual dinner with MNC executives may cost anything from Rs 5 lakh to Rs 15 lakh. A film star may rake in Rs 65 lakh to dance at a wedding yet do a film for a friend for free. Also, for long, Bollywood stars have-besides films-thrived on tours in NRI-congested parts of the Gulf, Europe and the US. Tax officials admit they have repo
