Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has crossed the 17 million followers mark on popular social media website Twitter. Khan is the 2nd most followed Indian on Twitter, behind the legendary Amitabh Bachchan and ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
At the beginning of the year, Aamir Khan came within touching distance of Shah Rukh. The difference in the number of followers between the two was less than 2 lakhs, but the gap has now widened quite considerably both because Aamir isn’t very active on Twitter and the fact that he didn’t have any movie release in 2015.
Shah Rukh has also narrowed the gap between him and Amitabh Bachchan.
Exactly a year ago, Amitabh Bachchan had 12.4 million followers, SRK had 10.6 million, Aamir was at 10.4 million, Salman was at 9.9 million and PM Modi in the 5th position with 9.5 million followers.
A lot has changed in one year and it’ll be interesting to see which Indian will be the first to cross 20 million and 25 million milestones in the coming year.
Check out Top 5 most followed Indians on Twitter
- Amitabh Bachchan – 18,580,063 followers
- Shah Rukh Khan – 17,018,739 followers (-1,561,324 fewer than Amitabh Bachchan)
- Narendra Modi – 17,001,516 followers (-17,223 fewer than SRK)
- Aamir Khan – 15,891,711 followers (-1,109,805 fewer than PM Modi)
- Salman Khan – 15,458,131 followers (-433,580 fewer than Aamir)
@indicine : plz do an article on facebook followers also
There Is Only One Religion In The World-“Hard Work” #SRKsays ??
#SRK17Million
KING
P.S. – SRK is the only Indian who has “Genuine” followers.
Ohh Hooo very great job team indicine u r true fans of SRK
When any other Superstar like Salman Khan Akshay Kumar Aamir Khan Hrithik Roshan cross 10 million or 15 million followers on Twitter u guys do not noted about them but when SRK got at least 5000 followers u immediately post an article for him
do u think it is unfair with other Superstars ?
Salman is way way way ahead of srk on facebook….he is almost double of srk on facebook and the 3rd most liked page on FB after narendra modi and deepika padukone .
Salman Khan and PM modi are the only 2 Indians to be in Top 5 on both Facebook and Twitter .
Srk is not even on top 15 on fb most liked indian pages .
Salman Khan is soon going to cross 30 million likes on his fb page and king khan is going to cross 16 million….lol no offence hahaha
@CM’s punk.. what’s your problem?? Everytime Indicine posts anything positive about SRK, everyone lines up to criticise them.
Where were you when they were writing negative reports about Dilwale? Movie is not doing well, so that’s ok.. But you people seem to have a problem with everything related to SRK.
Most popular song Gerua.. which has 38 million views on Youtube.. when it gets award for Most popular song.. you have a problem.
Middle finger to all you haters of SRK. He will comeback stronger, don’t make the mistake of writing him off. A good film has beaten him.. even then Dilwale will do 300 crore worldwide.

@5.54pm stop mentioning joker pls if calling names like Hritik Salman Srk Aamir. Pls not being rude just a fact. Go and read about how most followers of akki are inactive and we all know cases of multiple fake tweeter accounts so leave Srk Salman Aamir alone. Don’t you have anything in this world to do than mentioning joker name everywhere? stay within.your limits.
How many of his followers actually watch his movies would be a good question
Simply mindblowing stats… Simply, Deputy King of Twitter in India.. BO Pe Nain toh, twitter pe sahi..
Pity on him. Here also he comes in the second, the only place, twitter, where he is supposed to rule.. lol.. king of nowhere..
@Indicine, what about Facebook?
After Amitabh, Salman has more active and real followers.
Indicine appreciate others good work…dont be lyk sky who just think others good work just googling which never suit salmir fans…and indicine what exactly the criteria for VERDICT ??? Its not a silly question i think…hope you can answer atlist once
indicine dnt u know that fb likes is not a parameter because of easily grabbing fake likes so why dnt u answer those who are keep on comparising fb likes with genioun twitter followers i feel u r in too much pressure nowadays to just show a distance with srk
Srk has fake followers… created by his PR team.
wohooo.. victory for srk.. what a good news this is.. party time for srk fans and its the time to do lungi dance lungi dance…
@ indicine- when modi will beat srk plz write an article then it will help to clear your srk fanatic image.
thanks indicine its another excuse for srk fans now ..
I think srk is at his last stage of his life his fans needs to shift there gears towards RK,varun etc. many SRK fans which I sees 3 yrs before at time of JTHJ are now admins of Ranveer Singh fan club and Bahubali fan club .
Srk only records on online platforms only
I agreed that every online records Srk wins but when boxofficeis is considered he is loosing against Kangna ranut film.
his last flop in 2005 .
I can’t says dilwale is profitable venture and Semi hit or avg Like PRDP ,JaiHo and Talaash verdicts .
in 2006 Srk has 2 films one with his Best production house (dharma and YRF) and one is clashed with Salman on Eid vs Janeman .that time SRK on Top now Salman On top.
ironically both films produced by farhan akthar.Don and Raees .
but srk got 2 blockbusters after that.
simply Salman and aamir are on top due to there selection of film’s(not scripts) .
aamir chooses Raju hirani and Dhoom brand and those are worked him as Escalators .
Salman chooses best holidays and good films .Even PRDP he gets good release .
while SRK wasting his talent by selecting films like Ra1, Don2, JTHJ ,HNY . due to this he has lost stardom .
he should have to do films like BB and Dhoom like .Dilwale is not bad as HNY .but people lost faith in him .
Fan and Raees are definitely will not be 300 cr films both are bundled 170 and 220cr respectively and gauri shindes next will be 60-70cr film and in 2018 srk is at age of 54 yrs means it’s simple he is gone now and will never see him to deliver 300c.r film .at last when he is back lake Big B like Mohabattein and K3G ,but at that time the credit goes to leading actor.
SRk is gone but he his legend forever for inspiration to youngsters.But he has Spoiled his Career by his own hand.
I like SRK but most of his films are similar.
First Hero meets Heroine, and then there is Romance.. —- there is some misunderstanding or problems.. Hero/heroine go their separate ways… and finally reunite in the end.
DDLJ, Pardes, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Hum Tumhare Hai Sanam, Chalte Chalte, om shanti Om, Dil To Pagal Hai, Veer Zara, Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna, My Name Is Khan, Jab Tak Hai Jaan, Dilwale… Same formula…
Anyway looking forward for Fan and Raees
Indicine, y dont u say FB followers …. Dont b unfair… Twitter is not only a social media.. Grown up indicine , b fair.. Post an article including all social medias followers , u wil get know, who is the no 1 ….
Chalo baba something to cheer for SRK fans … box office nahi to ye hi sahi
The reason SRK has much less followers in FB compared to other superstars is that the FB page of SRK is not an official one, it is a page managed by one of his fan. All the other superstars have their officially verified page.
He has FAN & RAEES back 2 back.
So,he will be No 1 ahead of Big B in the middle of 2016.
King is King…King Shahrukh Khan aka SRK.
King Rules will dominate the BO as well from FAN, RAEES next ….. Thnx indicine
Lol where are all these followers for Dilwale? Sleeping hahaha ??
AB iski jarurat kya hai ? ?
Shahrukh ka End ho gaya hai ? ?
Even Ranveer singh is better than SrKAY…
His tweets r always awesome intellectual witty its intresting 2 read not like …. others something boring with broken english
