As Dilwale and Bajirao Mastani continue to earn at the box office, it is expected that these numbers can and will change. Nonetheless, it can be seen that there are certain trends to note such as one actor having more than one top movie, or director-actor pairings that have always worked well at the box office. Additionally it is an interesting phenomenon that a majority of the movies that scored big at the box office, also scored highly with the critics. Whatever it may be, as the year bids farewell, BollyCurry is much pleased with these numbers and this top 10 list. As we sign off, we can only hope that in 2016, all the top 10 movies will be critical acclaims as well!
