Shah Rukh Khan beats Salman Khan to bag the numero uno position in Forbes India’s Celebrity List!

The Baadshah of Bollywood bounces back from a mild setback in India’s celebrity index!
Even though Salman had two record-breaking hits in the box office this year, Shah Rukh Khan still managed to beat his position in the Forbes list! This might come as a big surprise for you as it did to me but King Khan has bounced back in the Forbes list of highest earners and has defeated Salman Khan. According to reports, Shah Rukh khan has made the most amount of money this year i.e. Rs. 257.5 crore which is a whopping 54.75 crore more than Salman Khan’s Rs. 202.75 crore! Now would you believe that? Not only that, the Dilwale actor’s wealth is the highest a celebrity has ever earned in a year in India! In fact, SRK’s calculated wealth is 9 percent of the total wealth of Rs. 2,819 crore of the top 100 celebrities this year.

While the two Khans fight over the throne of number one in the Forbes list, Aamir Khan has finally made it to the top five of the list this year! With his superhit film PK and several brand endorsements, the actor has managed to gain a lot of wealth this year and has entered the top five making him the fifth richest celebrity! The actor has earned Rs. 104.25 crore this year which is his best earning in the last four years and is a whopping 145 percent hike of what he earned in 2012! Looks like the three big Khans are now officially reigning the celebrity wealth index. Cricketer MS Dhoni still maintains his fourth position and has earned Rs. 119.33 crore this year and Amitabh Bachchan stands on the third rank with a total wealth of Rs. 112.00 crore earned this year.

The Khans may make it in big numbers with their wealth index but when it comes to fame they have failed to reach the number one position as Amitabh Bachchan has still maintained his throne. With a total number of about 17.5 million followers on Twitter, the 73-year old actor sure can teach the younger gen a thing or two about social media perks. So with the numbers looking good, the year 2015 has been quite good for these celebrities with respect to wealth and earnings. Maybe the year 2016 might bring better news for them! But you have a look at the top ten in the Forbes list:

1. Shah Rukh Khan Rs.257.50 crore

2. Salman Khan Rs.202.75 crore

3. Amitabh Bachchan Rs.112.00 crore

4. Mahendra Singh Dhoni Rs.119.33 crore

5. Aamir Khan Rs.104.25 crore

6. Akshay Kumar Rs.127.83 crore

7. Virat Kohli Rs.104.78 crore

8. Sachin Tendulkar Rs.40.00 crore

9. Deepika Padukone Rs.59.00 crore

10. Hrithik Roshan Rs.74.50 crore
