Dangal is Khan's fifth Rs 1 billion-plus film, a record unmatched by any of his peers.

It released in 4,300 screens and tracks the journey of a former Indian wrestler, played by Khan, who trains his daughters almost maniacally to turn them into medal-winners for the country.

The film has been appreciated both as a sports drama as well as a feminist statement. However, its biggest triumph lies in its massive commercials.

Dangalnow leads the pack of India's top-grossing films of all time.
