Top Lifetime Distributor Shares in India
The distributor shares are what the Bollywood industry is interested in as they are the bottom line in deciding the fate of a Bollywood film at the Indian boxoffice. The distributor shares are nett gross minus theatre rentals. The theatre rentals vary. Multiplexes give 50% in week one, 42.5% in week two, 37.5% in week three and 30% thereafter to the distributor. The figures are inflation unadjusted. Though Enthiran holds the Indian record for highest distributor share with 125 crore, Ek Tha Tiger holds the record in Bollywood films with highest distributor share with 106 crore.

Waved her last gray slander down the stair,

Her other smile like one rose
Falling, falling everywhere....”
