  • Exclusive:

    Directed Rajkumar Hirani, who is gearing up for the release of his first independent production, Saala Khadoos in an interview to a leading website on being asked to speak about the possibility of working with Shah Rukh Khan said,
    “I am a big fan of Shah Rukh Khan. Approached him twice – first time for MUNNABHAI and second time for 3 IDIOTS.. Things didn’t work out at that time. Hope one fine day my dream will come true. Will love to work with SRK.”

    This saying is enough to explain the Worth of KING KHAN. Slap for those who always busy to hate Sir SRK.

  • @CM tell your makkians also indicine gave them a perfect answer. Where is sunny who says joker fan followers outside India is more than Aamir. Tight slap on his stardom last hit 2012 rr ?? too much fun. People wonder why am on Akki today read comments on questions and answers how some foolish baby were bashing Badshaah and even the 2 other

  • srk fans shd thank kajol for this.woh nhi hoti is movie mein toh 20 milliom bhi nhi ho pata.I bet to all srkians raees n fan won’t cross even mnik collections in overseas.anyone wana bet.
    n one famous dialogue.jhoond mein toh suar aate hain.sher hamesha akela hi aata hai.srk hamesha jhoond mein hi aata hai

  • @Allu 200 some clowns yesterday were barking Akki stardom mega Srk fading. I don’t bash Akki before but now it’s pay back time. You are right Joker oversea fans are very low. The collection is saying everything. Good he is following sunny Deol footsteps when sunny realised he was fading. Tell me a big commercial mainstream film of Akki that collected more than Ranveer Sid lowest 100 cr since Rowdy rathode? action flops comedy flop sport flop some thrillers above average with huge budgets. His fans getting excited when he never reach half of Srk recent biggies. It’s their time they can say anything but stay at their limits esp @Sunny Akkiholic never you dare link.joker name with Srk Salman Aamir Hrithik. We can pardon you slightly if you link it with even Ajay but to some extent. Your movie is chasing Ranveer Ranbir Ajay and Akshay 2012 film record. No matter what you can’t cross Ranveer and Ranbir highest grosser. Anytime you cross their highest grosser I am signing off from Indicine. Any name you attach yourself with remember twice we know you very well and easiest way to catch you is by including anything about Ajay in your comments with different id it is going to he obvious since that guy has made you mentally destabilized freak who keeps on crying using Ajay name always most times without anyone even bringing any issue. Take note. We are Srk fans Ajay Akki Hrithik are our Apne. Again we don’t reason like the other khan’s we appreciate acting excellance and know where every actor belongs so warn yourself @Hrithik rules @sandeep raj @Lisa @akkian @harsh @fan 500 @Deepak Kaur and all names you frequently use.

  • @Fayez – Agreed first indian collections than overseas….also collections in india means more people saw your movie as that means more footfalls…ticket prices in us, Canada are very expensive and minimum is 20 dollars

  • Salman struggling to get a Filmfare award. And he will be struggling to all his lifetime to get Filmfare award.

    Now Heaters will start saying that Salman don’t need any awards…..

    Ha ha ha so Salman want only money?????? Ha ab bol…..

  • agar Christmas pe release nahi hota to 20 million bhi cross nahi kar pata… eg : CE 19 m and HNY 17 m

  • Great news.

    It is understandable that as a producer there is a temptation to do such masala movies which can earn loads of money.

    But as an actor movies such as Dilwale and HNY adds zero value to Shahrukhs legacy. 25 years down the road he will be remembered for Darr, Bazigar, CDI, Swadesh, Kabhi Haan Kabhi Na, DDLJ. And HNY and Dilwale will be viewed amongst his poorest movies.

    Hoping Fan and Raees will star amongst his iconic movies. Desperately waiting for Fan in particular.

    As a side remark, even though Dilwale has beaten 3 Idiots but there is absolutely no comparison if we talk about the class of these movies. 3 Idiots was offered to SRK first and I really really regret him not doing that movie. Hoping SRK would chose better scripts in future.

  • Films are based on worldwide collections and India is the only country were they rely on domestic collections no wonder they can never compete with the rest of the world!! Low mentality!!! Avatar for example 2.8 bill 600-700 mill in America the rest were from other countries? do i need to say any more?

  • @ Indicine: Is there any such news that Hirani and Amir are working on 3 Idiots sequel? If yes, pls also post that news.

  • @Indicine

    Why are you comparing Dilwale to 6-7 years old movie?In 6-7 years economy changes.One day you compare todays movie to 40 years old Amitabh Bachhan movies and said this movie beat their business.

  • Total 32films become Blockbuster in oversease out of 22blockbuster srk starer, where amir gave 4 blockbuste 2 of raju papa 1 dhoom brand and other 1 is for kajol acc to amir fans logic

  • In Oversease only two type film works 1Srk films 2Content oriented film just imagine SRK CONTENT= Sky is limit

  • Dabangg’ actor Salman Khan is currently busy shooting for Ali Abbas Zafar’s ‘Sultan’. The superstar has beefed up for his role of a wrestler, and all the fans are really liking his hard work.
    Now, the latest report suggests that Salman has cancelled the shoot of his upcoming film quite often and that too on the last moment. According to a TOI.com, the ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ has been stopping ‘Sultan’ shoots leaving the makers and team members at a loss.

  • @raj:
    Bhai’s biggest grosser collected over 600cr worldwide and shahthuk’s biggest grosser collected only 400cr worldwide. Hence Bhai is the global Megastar and shahthuk is a local star down to south only.

    @phenominal idiot:
    But the so called overseas star has ZERO movie among top 3 highest overseas grossers…. Hahahaha.

  • @Zuheeb which birth are you talking about. Talk about this birth. Aamir is already baap of overrated, manipulated success giving opportunist fake stardom star srk. It’s srk who will need to take 10000 births to achieve what aamir has achieved. Aamir is baap of srk in consistency and mega stardom. It’s aamir who has made Indian cinem proud with his talent and his show satyamev jayate. Srk is nothing in front of aamir. It will be honor for Sr if he gets hired by aamir as his servant. Aamir the real global megastar rules Bollywood.

  • As per box office india= All time world wide grossers . 1 PK = 735 crores 2. B Bhaijan = 623 crores 3. Dhoom3 = 536 crores 4. Chennai express = 396 crores 5. 3idiots = 391 crores 6. Dilwale = 387 crores…………………..Dilwale may end fourth highest world wide grosser despite haters full time efforts

  • So called global king is not even in top 3.both Bajrangi Bhaijaan and 3 Idiots should not be compared with other film in terms of content and B.O collection,i mean 3 Idiots did 200cr back in 2009 with only 2200 screens where as Bajrangi bhaijaan did over 300cr with only one holiday and 2 open weeks.

  • @ROmanca your shahthuk has got overseas success only by yrf and dharma banners. megastar aamir khan’s last 5 films averages more than shahtuk’s highest grosser. shathuk should thank yash pappa for saving his career again and again. it’s only yash papa because of whom shahthuk exists. megastar perfectionist is the real global megastar. he has made raju hirani a big commercial successful director. before working with aamir, raju wasn’t as big and popular as he is now. so shut your mouth you loser.

  • Oversea megastar-Amir
    Domestic megastar-Salman
    Excuse megastar-Srk….

    Finally after 5 yr with d help of kajol

  • Oversea megastar-Amir
    Domestic megastar-Salman
    Excuse megastar-Srk….

    Finally after 6 yr with d help of kajol

  • @Challa : SRK was chasing HAHK for 13 years and Ready in recent years until CE (Only Hindi versions) still lungitards calls him King !!!!!!!!! Lol
