With a majority of his work being part of the highest grossing Indian films of all time , the company is estimated to be net worth of -LRB- as of second quarter of Fiscal 2015 -RRB- by multiple NSE and BSE analysts , thereby making it the biggest and most successful film production company in the history of Indian cinema .
