1979 was a pretty decent year for the Bollywood industry as there were not many big hits. The highest grosser of the year i.e. Suhaag could collect just 5 crores. Of course, it was a very good number but not for a top grosser of the year. Even Jaani Dushman couldn’t record excellent numbers.
Other films, of course, remained on the lower side. Have a look at the Top 10 Bollywood grossers of 1979:
