From 2007 to 2017, Here Are All The Bollywood Diwali Releases That Were Superhits

Bollywood has a tradition of always picking up a Friday for its releases. This is one rule that the entire film fraternity follows like a mantra. However, there is one day in the entire year when Bollywood breaks the rule happily and that is the auspicious day of Diwali. Time and again, movie makers have chosen Diwali to release their movies and the entire nation looks forward to the day for another movie to mark the festival. While some movies follow the stars and come up with flying colours, many tank at the box office. Here are all the Bollywood Diwali releases that did phenomenally well in the numbers as well.

1. Om Shanti Om: November 9, 2007

The movie garnered attention not just because of its dramatic story around reincarnation but also because of Deepika Padukone being the new face.

2. Golmaal Returns: 29 Oct 2008

The 2008 Diwali marked the return of Rohit Shetty’s only purpose in this world, ‘Golmaal Returns’ and it performed great, much to everyone’s surprise. The movie collected around 108 crores worldwide.
