1) Great actors like Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Irrfan Khan, and Manoj Bajpai finally getting their due
2) Experimental films like Barfi, Kahaani, Vicky Donor and English Vinglish becoming hits
3) Almost all of the newcomers that debuted had commercially successful films
4) Many brilliant female performances in a single year (Vidya, Priyanka, Sridevi etc)
5) Highest number of 100 crore films within a year (JTHJ, Dabanng 2, Rowdy Rathore etc)

Need I say more?

Hopefully 2014 will be just as good as 2012... 😊

I meant net collections wise so films like Aashiqui 2 and Raanjhanaa would be excluded 😛
