others concentrate on earning more and more money … But for Aamir money is no big thing ,, he can earn more than all but he doesn’t coz for him quality matters not quantity .. respect
Don’t know what they will do by earning this much money..
Out of 227crs earned by Chennai express,SRK took 220crs from it!!!Lol
Poor distributers and producers…
#KoffeeWithKaran’s Salman episode got the highest viewers of 6lacs +. Also it hit the 2 million + mark on youtube !! Possible #RECORD
Salman deserves it. I’m proud to be Salman Khan fan.
Don’t know why our Bharat Ratna “Sachin” is running after money.
srk deserves this position . way ahead of everyone .
Admit it this list is a proof that Akshay’s stardom remains intact despite back to back flops. It is really very hard to maintain such a reputation.
I wonder why the legendary superstar Rajanikant Sir isn’t in the list?.
SRK cannot even enter Wankhede Stadium what will he do with so much money LOL
Pritam earned 53 crore WTF
Amitabhji 147.5 crore bigger WTF

to @babaji ki thullu,ok you said that SRK took 220cr out of 227cr of CE collections,but what about last year even though salman had two big release and SRK had only one.still last year how SRK had earned 255cr and remained in 1st position according to forbes.by the way if krrish3 earned 243cr,then hr must took 225cr and should remain in 1st position.beta tu such much thullu hai.answer this question if you can.by the way don’t compare unknown sallu,hr,amir with great SRK.I know this is the time of your little fans wait until the KING KHAN SRK returns that he does it every time.
by the way this question to amir fans?you always say amir the father of 100,200cr club,but see he is not even in top 20 position.so shut up you midgets.
to @ehinom,what a big psycho you are?you forget the two biggies that is DDLJ,K2H2 in your list,please make a correction.
this year already proved who is the biggest star.wait for next year which will be called the HAPPY NEW YEAR.oh my god so much insecure fans are here.all are so small in front the KING/BADSHAH SHAHRUKH KHAN.
At 71, Amitabh at no 4 , wow the real king. Big b you are the biggest .
without any movie release this year SalMan holds the 2nd position with 157.5cr..
Incredible!
@sss
You are such a stupid that you did’nt understood my comment,it was just for humour…otherwise it would’nt have been highly rated.
As for Aamir,he does’nt do advertising for big brands like SRK,Salman n others,he now only does advertisement for government social awareness programmes,hence he does’nt get that much money.
@wtf
Salman holds a contract of ?130crs for Bigboss 7.
to all SRK,AMIT JI,HR fans,celebrate 12years of completion of legend family film K3G(kabhi khushi kabhie gham).1st SRK said it to AMIT JI on the occasion of 25 great Indian global living legends.also SRK got the prize from president for the great global Indian legends along with rajni ji,amit ji,ar rehmaan,waheeda ji.
to @babaji ki thullu,still you can’t give the answer.why SRK earned higher and remained in no.1 position even had a single film?he gave appropriate money to all coworkers and actors of CE.don’t say like that.no doubt amir acted in valuable films still he prising sallu as the no.1 star and saying he has’t watch films like chak de India till now and will watch some day even he had gone to watch the 3rd grade films like body guard of his friend sallu.if he so much aware about society he shouldn’t be there in films like dhoom3 with his really amazing horrible look and dancing steps.aamir’s quality is just like my a*s.
I like the fact dat saif is number 10
