==Productions==

===1992—1997===

The company's first production came in 1992 with [[Bharat Rangachary]]'s ''[[Zulm Ki Hukumat]]'', starring an [[ensemble cast]] including [[Suniel Shetty]] and [[Govinda (actor)|Govinda]], which was not well appreciated. The next two produced films were Rangachary's ''[[Waqt Hamara Hai]]'' (1993) starring [[Akshay Kumar]] as well as Suniel Shetty, and [[Aziz Sejawal]]'s ''[[Andolan (1995 film)|Andolan]]'' (1995) starring Govinda, [[Mamta Kulkarni]] and [[Sanjay Dutt]]. Both these films performed moderately well at the box office. The former marked Sajid Nadiadwala's first production to star Kumar.

In August 1996, [[Raj Kanwar]]'s action thriller ''[[Jeet (1996 film)|Jeet]]'' starring [[Sunny Deol]], [[Karisma Kapoor]] and [[Salman Khan]], which was produced by NGE, was released to highly positive critical reviews, and eventually proved as a breakthrough for the banner, as it grossed over {{INRConvert|330|m}} at the worldwide box office to become one of the year's most earning films. ''Jeet'' was also Nadiadwala's first production to star Salman Khan. [[David Dhawan]]'s comedy ''[[Judwaa]]'', released in February 1997, marked the next film of NGK. Featuring Salman Khan as twin brothers who were separated at their birth and reunite in youth, ''Judwaa'' starred Karisma Kapoor & [[Rambha (actress)|Rambha]] as Khan's love interests, and had a box-office successful run with lifetime earnings of over {{INRConvert|220|m}}.

===2000—2009===

NGK began the 2000s decade by reteaming with Raj Kanwar to produce the romantic drama ''[[Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega]]'' (2000) starring Salman Khan opposite [[Preity Zinta]] and [[Rani Mukerji]]. It went on to gross {{INRConvert|360|m}} worldwide and was the sixth highest-grossing film that year. From 2001 to 2003, NGK didn't produce any films.

The banner came back in 2004 by collaborating with David Dhawan for the second time on the romantic comedy ''[[Mujhse Shaadi Karogi]]'' which featured Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar and [[Priyanka Chopra]] and was declared ''Super Hit'' by [[Box Office India]]. Its final worldwide earnings reached to {{INRConvert|615|m}}. This was followed by [[Shirish Kunder]]'s directorial debut ''[[Jaan-E-Mann]]'' in 2006. The feature which saw Preity Zinta, Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar play lead roles was critically and commercially unprofitable.

In 2007, NGK produced [[Sajid Khan (director)|Sajid Khan]]'s comedy ''[[Heyy Babyy]]'' starring Akshay Kumar, [[Vidya Balan]], [[Riteish Deshmukh]] and [[Fardeen Khan]]. ''Heyy Babyy'', which marked the first collaboration between Nadiadwala and Deshmukh, was a critical and commercial success with revenues of {{INRConvert|700|m}} but received negative reviews from critics. The banner next produced [[Sabbir Khan]]'s directorial debut ''[[Kambakkht Ishq]]'' (2009) which saw Akshay Kumar and [[Kareena Kapoor]] star as pivotal characters and earned over {{INRConvert|840|m}} in global markets to become a box-office hit despite earning overwhelmingly mixed reviews from film critics.

===2010—present===

NGK achieved further success in 2010, producing the Sajid Khan-directed comedy ''[[Housefull (2010 film)|Housefull]]'', which consisted of an [[ensemble cast]] including Akshay Kumar, [[Deepika Padukone]], Riteish Deshmukh, [[Arjun Rampal]], [[Lara Dutta]], [[Jiah Khan]] and [[Boman Irani]]. The movie grossed over {{INRConvert|1.51|b}} worldwide, thus becoming NGK's highest-grossing release at that point, and was the fourth top-earning Bollywood production of the year, but its response was generally mixed. ''Housefull'' was the first installment of the ''[[Housefull (film series)|Housefull film franchise]]'' as well. The company's second production of the year was [[Siddharth Anand]]'s ''[[Anjaana Anjaani]]'', a romantic comedy featuring [[Ranbir Kapoor]] and [[Priyanka Chopra]], which was moderately profitable at the box office.
