All Time Blockbuster is a loosely used term in Bollywood today. Even a film like Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani have been declared as an All Time grosser even though the film wasn't close to as big a hit as films like 3 Idiots, Ghajini or Dabangg.

Below, we have a full list of 17 'All Time Blockbusters' in the history of the Hindi Film Industry. Chennai Expressmight soon join the list if the film manages to collect more than 210 crores.

• Kismet (1943) ' 1 crore
• Rattan (1944) ' 1 crore
• Mother India (1957) ' 4 crore
• Mughal-e-Azam (1960) ' 5.5 crore
• Sholay (1975) ' 15 crore
• Jai Santoshi Maa (1975) ' 5 crore
• Ram Teri Ganga Maili (1985) ' 9.5 crore
• Maine Pyar Kiya (1989) ' 14 crore
• Aankhen (1993) ' 14 crore
• Hum Aapke Hain Kaun (1994) ' 70 crore
• Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) ' 61 crore
• Raja Hindustani (1996) ' 48 crore
• Kuch Kuch Hota Hai ' 45.5 crore
• Gadar Ek Prem Katha (2001)  - 76 crore
• Ghajini (2008) ' 116 crore
• 3 Idiots (2009) ' 202 crore
• Dabangg (2010) ' 143 crore

Coming to the actors with 2 or more All Time Blockbusters to their credit, its Salman Khan right at the top once again with 4 all time grossers to his credit (3 if his extended special appearance in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai is not taken into consideration). Salman is followed by Shahrukh Khan, who has two films (3 if Chennai Express continues its good run).

Aamir Khan is the only other actor with 2 or more All Time Blockbusters. Surprisingly, Amitabh Bachchan, one of the biggest stars in history, doesn't have a single solo All-Time grosser to his credit (Sholay was a two-hero film).

• Salman Khan ' 4 Films (Maine Pyaar Kiya, Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Dabangg)
• Shahrukh Khan ' 2 Films (Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai)
• Aamir Khan ' 2 Films (Raja Hindustani and 3 Idiots)
