Shah Rukh Khan films: Gap between two movie releases

Shah Rukh Khan has said he wants to do 3 films every years, but that hasn’t been the case in the last years or so. On an average, the gap between two SRK films is 11 months.

But all that is set to change as Fan releases exactly 4 months after Dilwale and Raees will release exactly 2 months after FAN hits theatres.

The biggest gap between two SRK’s films was when Ra One released 622 days (21 months / nearly 2 years) after My Name Is Khan. The least gap was between Ra One and Don 2 (61 days).

Check out the detailed analysis of the gap between two Shah Rukh Khan films since 2007’s Om Shanti Om

  • Om Shanti Om and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi - 400 days (13 months)
  • Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and My Name Is Khan - 426 days (14 months)
  • My Name Is Khan and Ra One - 622 days (21 months)
  • Ra One and Don 2 - 61 days (2 months)
  • Don 2 and Jab Tak Hai Jaan - 327 days (11 months)
  • Jab Tak Hai Jaan and Chennai Express – 270 days (9 months)
  • Chennai Express and Happy New Year – 472 days (16 months)
  • Happy New Year and Dilwale - 391 days (13 months)
  • Dilwale and Fan - 120 days (4 months)
  • Fan and Raees - 80 days (3 months)

  • @skr. Amitabh was considered as a superstar for high success ratio and hit ratio as LEAD ACTOR from 1973-1991 with great quality performance. U are comparing sultana bhabhi’s record with towering bachchan. Even Chanky pandey was phenomenal for some with superhits with aag hi aag, pap ki duniya, khatron k khiladi and ankhein. Megastar woh hota hai Jo apne bad phase me flop filmo ko big opening de. Jaise big B – hum, khuda gawah, toofan aur srk dilwale, kank ra1 etc. what is jai ho opening in Salmans best phase? 16 cr.

  • @Original Bandar – 6:34 pm

    Since you are a fan of Bandar Khan , you better stick to his Bandar-giri with towel , and on the streets … Fan is not for you !

  • He should do 2-3 movies at least every year. Average of one movie in every 11 months is too less for me. Want to see more and more of him.

    So happy to see him doing movies like Fan and Raees now. All his next 3 movies are something to look forward it. Hopefully his fourth will be with Anad Rai.

  • @ Indicine : Please post about a recent interview of SRK in which he was asked about who he was a fan of and where he also shared some details about the making of Fan.

  • Ok…… so more irritation on our way.. i hope he does one film after 2 years… sorry srk fans m not his hater but trust me he is an asshole.. ;p

  • I think 2 films p’er yr is best ..for srk and for we fans also..
    ..anything dat comes after 6 month is..best and treat to watch.

    Fan…fan ke bad.Raees ..then Gouri shinde next..then Anand Rai next..then Imtiaz ali next…

    Good luck srk.

    love u don.

  • I wish srk release his movie every friday-Srk ko dekhne ka apna hi maza aur satisfaction ha-His screen presence is mind blowing

  • @fasal kerala,bro i am also from kerala and a die hard akshay fan.
    Akshay has star power than aamir and sallu in last decade,his kik,sik,welcome etc take record break opening.but filims like tmk,joker and khiladi 786 degrade his star power and multiplexes didnt trust him.now the platform changed,after 2 or 3 years akshay he come back 2 or 3rd position replacing any of 2 khans.

  • @Challa are nuts? How can you say that. You should know this is King Khan not Akshay kumar. Have you heard Shah rukh ever saying he will do movies as long as his cheque is ready? We are proud fans of King Khan waiting for 2 movies a year is already a suspense and excitment as long as we know content will be strong. We should also keep in mind with its collection too. I don’t want him to be a Hrithik or Aamir. Just look at Salman this year he released a content rich and non content rich movie. We all know the results. Shah rukh too has that quality too of releasing a content rich movie then a non content and still cross 150 . Same with Aamir. Their identity their age should limit them too max 2 films a year. Srk is not 35 years old . This is his closing phase next 6-8 years at most so let us see Srk doing 2 movies maximum. You can even ask ekka dukka fans of Aamir and Ajay. Do you know ajay rejected special26. Of all people if Ajay is rejecting some very good movies then why Srk do plenty films.
    I am okay with 2 films a year not 4. May be you should follow records of akshay hits and flops and see it with your eyes. He was never selective that’s why an average-good movie content like Airlift both for his fans and us is like a blockbusters. His fans calling him a Megastar.Think if it was Hrithik Aamir or Srk that did those films. Let’s face reality Srk Salman Aamir belong to the elite category of current bollywood superstars. We are left with 3 now Akshay Hrithik and Ajay. How many Akshay movies falls in highest all time grosser all time opening day all time weekend.? Out of them how many awards Akshay releasing 4 films a year has more than Hrithik and Ajay. For any A list actor be you Srk Salman Akshay Aamir Ajay Hrithik the 2 khan fans ,the Hrithik fans Akshay fans and ekka dukka fans of Aamir and Ajay should keep in mind that it’s all about qualiity not quantity. Just don’t sound like Akshay fans that watch 5 films a year but when it comes to collection or awards it’s behind the worst film of King Khan Dilwale collection wise and non entered category for nominations but Salman Srk films comfortably entered. From a proud SRK fan.

  • Its almost same SRK and Hrithik..
    Not only in average ranking as well in 2 movies gap..
    Hrithik is a decade younger than khans

  • @Fusss Kerala you idiot, you are judging aamir’s fan following? First look at yourself in the mirror. Even you sint know who you are as you are a certified “beep”. You dont even have one fan in your whole life and you are talking about megastar aamir khan who is founder of every club be it India, overseas and worldwide. He is founder of 100 Cr club, 150 Cr club, 200 Cr, 250 Cr, 300 Cr clubs just in India. He is founder of $15 millions usd, $20 millions usd, $25 millions usd, $30 millions usd, 35 millions, 40 millions and 45 millions usd clubs in overseas alone. And founder of 250 Cr, 300 Cr, 350 Cr, 400 Cr, 450 Cr, 500 Cr, 600 Cr, 700 Cr, 750 Cr and 800 Cr clubs worldwide in just last 8 years with only 4 films. This is the record which srk or salman will never achieve. So better shut your mouth before comparing megastar aamir khan’s fan following to his kids. Aamir’s fans are not jobless, illiterates to bark on internet all day and night, but in reality he has highest fan following everywhere. Wait for dangal and you will see how he will shatter all records once again.

  • Must watch from my side after seeing the song. Trailer release will be highly anticipated I can imagine esp from Srk fans..

    I think 3 films will be okay for him. Bug any difference?

    @Annie…
    Yeah I ractify with u. Dunno what they are trying to prove with all these gaps…between not that they even attached the Final collection nor verdicts on each movies… ???

    @indicine…yes yes we know who tops this category for doing most film in a year….No need to stress yourself……

    My question… the more one does movie what’s the merit? Is the merit a reflection of box office dominance???…..Shah should do the movies he feels he can do based on energy level not putting cash on his mind?

  • @Fusss karala, dhakkan, first learn some basic language. You dont even know how to talk and your illiteracy is proved by your each of the comments. We also saw srk’s so called stardom on last Christmas. Lol. Stardom my foot? He couldn’t give a hit when with rohit shetty, varun, etc. So what stardom and what fan following? If he has really fan following then why can’t he give HGOTY in his own country? Even in overseas aamir is way ahead of srk. Srk Js just a media created fake star while Aamir is real megastar. So called megastar srk cant give a hit on Christmas. Lets wait till fan and see his so called stardom. His MNIK also flopped badly. Ra.one on diwali flopped badly. Huh. So think 1000 times before blabbering. It’s srk who needs great scripts and big banners otherwise he cant even give a hit on big festivals like Christmas and diwali as Ra one and flopwaale’s debacle proved hoe big megastar he is. LOL. Like it or not, aamir is far ahead of srk in fan following.

  • @Legacy Wildlife Reserve

    What are you trying to say? With my urdu knowledge I can presume what ekka duka fans means…I won’t argue with you much cos I know you are not using your real identity… but you have no basis to call Aamir and Ajay fans ekka duka or wateva..all of us know including you that out of the current A list superstars in d country Aamir and Ajay are the quiter glamorous ones but no one can deny the huge fan base they have all over not necessary via media..these are guys that if you look at their adjusted gross in 90s they have nothing less than 4 and 7 respectively100 crs today..like Ajay I know has 7 adjusted gross of over 100 crs for Hindustan ki kasam major sahab ishq pyar toh hona hi ta hddcs khache dhagge jaan…all with footfalls from 1.2-2.14 crs as back as 90s..! Forget 2000s 2010+….Same with Aamir…sarfaroosh ishq raja Hindustani rangeela 90s…Salman Srk have up to 8 each all in 90s with Akki with the least …2 adjusted 100 grosser sbk and kkk also in 90s. All of them have huge footfalls so for me it’s unlogical to say an actor that had 100 crs adjusted gross 1996 with 6 other 100 crs back in 90s till date still maintaining those 100 crs and huge distributor shares and footfalls as at 2016 movies has not been watched and back then they were not havin huge fans tripping into the cinema to watch them…talk more of now? Please you and I know that both Aamir Ajay should have lots of followers dating back as 20 years ago with phenomenal box office footfalls and total gross.
    Next time have some respect….Don’t underestimate Aamir n Ajay fan followers.. they have a loyal fan base till date. Stop calling them ekka dukka fans.

  • @fasal Kerala you are such an idiot. which Aamir film got flopped in last decade or so which got negative review. None of Aamir films were flop since Mela, Even the Mangal Pandey which was average is only due to it excessive budget. Regarding srk which srk film can compete to Aamir film success in recent years post OSO, only one that is CE that also despite 6 back to back holiday releases. Regarding fan following I have seen that when his good films like Paheli and swades bombed at boxofficw and failed to recover. Idiotic multistarrer Kank was survived. now look at his recent average grosser Dilwale (Don’t even talk about ww) its footfaals was mere less than 1.5cr on Christmas. Let’s not even talked about other franchise Don 2 released on Christmas.
    Regarding Mass film success these all Masala film trend started by Aamir with Ghajini which was blockbuster opener & success in mass circuit as well. Same goes for Dhoom 3. Aamir generally invest him in different kind of movies which largely not appeal outside of multiplex other wise he can easily did 3-4 films Masala back to back post Ghajini success. He is not idiot like your so called fav actor who did 3 back to back masala while the first one CE was a good film but the later two was craps.
    Moral is your so called 3.7 billion fans actor chased 3i for last 5 years in overseas despite of huge following. Let’s not even discuss domestic anymore.
    Regarding opening Aamir doesn’t need to prove anything man.
    He has 5 all time opener on his name with Mangal Pandey, Fanaa, Ghajini, 3I & D3.
    His non holiday opener D3 weekend record of 102cr is still out of reach for srk despite being 1 full fledged holiday weekend. Don’t worry you are here, just wait and watch Dangal success. We don’t even bother how much Aamir films collect in Kerala, we matters for Big circuits like Delhi-up,Mumbai,east Punjab, Rajasthan etc. More Importantly all over India.

  • @12:18pm,whose comment is this?

    @complan boy(sky),you’re the ultimate idiot,rofl.mela is the film from the director of raja hindustani the only clean hit of tingu in 90’s ,still it couldn’t even become average then w2hy you’re insulting a clashed movie DILWALE faced with negative wom?and KING SRK is not a 1 rupee risk free idiot like tingu who always ran after masala films in the name of classic like lagaan,pk,rdb all are not REALISTIC CLASSIC like PAHELI,SWADES.LET YOUR TINGU TO DO THAT TYPE OF MOVIES THEN WE’LL PREDICT HIS REAL FANLESS STARDOM WHICH CAN’T BE PREDICTED IF TINGU WILL HIDE BEHIND RAJU PAPA+BRAND DHOOM.I think you’re consistently forgot to take complan everyday,take that regularly.compare DILWALE’S FOOTFALLS with mela,dch,mangal/dangal pandey ,dhobi ghat,talash like shitty films,you’ll find more footfalls.and btw why because I compared DILWALE with those films because DILWALE is a clash film.and your tingu has never won a clash.

    in 90’s clash RAM JAANE-HIT VS ahat-flop(source:your favourite boi).

    now get lost idiot,your tingu already lost a clash so don’t give much clarification and excuses and give those to your loser idol.if DILWALE WOULD have solo release,then IT would have easily thrashed tingu”s dhoom3 and more nearly BAJRANGI taklajaan in worldwide more possibhly.so take out your shit and get the hell out of here you tingutard.
