Adjusted rates show it has gross just a little below 971 crores world wide if we compare to today's time.




Plus its cultural significance is something no one can even doubt.


Plus the other true worldwide Indian ATBBs like Sholay, Mughal-e-Azam, HANK, Ganga Jamuna, DDLJ, Disco Dancer, Bobby and most recently Dangal non are woman lead movies.


While Mother India was a woman lead movie with actors who at that time where not really the biggest stars, Rajender later on had golden run but at that time he was infant.So when are we going to have a woman lead movie which will break Mother India's record.


I think given the current generation's patience, a woman led social drama like MI is not gonna work, and we need either a mythological woman lead or a superheroine lead movie.

well many movies have made this much or even more adjusted.
Just look at the movies I named, they all habe earned more than 1000 crores adjusted, while Dangal and Mughal-E-Azam have crossed 2000 crores adjusted.

Plus the likes of Bajrangi and PK are also in the same region.

Adjusted for inflation means adjusted for price level change.
Let's understand what it means

Suppose an economy only has 2 goods (petrol and diesel). In the year 2000, suppose the price of both the goods be Rs 10 per liter. If you are able to sale 10 liters of each then the maximum amount you can earn is 10*10+10*10
=200, i.e. Rs. 200 for 20 liters of petroleum.

Now, take the year 2015, where the prices have risen to Rs 50 each. In this case the revenue you will earn is 2*50*10=1000, i.e. Rs. 1000 for the same 20 liters of petroleum products. However, if you consume only 4 liters of each then you will have the same revenue as 2000.

So, what has changed in the past 15 years in our story. Taking the supply and quality constant, we see that the prices has risen to a great extent.

Now, to see the real extent of growth( i.e. How much more consumption is done), we will have to look for real changes in the level of consumption by dividing the 2000 price level.

By doing it, we see that in the year 2015 we when adjusted for Inflation the revenue made is 1000/10 =100, revenue has decreased from the past.

So, basically Infaltionary adjustment equals the price level in both the periods and gives us an actual picture of growth in real terms. (in terms of quantity)

😆
In layman language, adjusted means comparing the value of money in past with today.
Like in face value someone getting Rs. 100 today is more than someone getting Rs. 10 50 years back.
But if we compare the actual value of Rs. 10 in 1968 to value of Rs. 100 in 2018, than Rs. 10 in 1068 is more than Rs. 100 in 1968 in an ideal world.
