Salman Khan

Bollywood’s ‘Bhai’ Salman Khan has been doing great at the Box Office. His film Sultan crossed the 300 crore mark at the box office becoming one of the highest grossers of the year. While his attempt to push the envelope in Tubelight wasn’t exactly a huge success, it still managed to recover its investment, earning 121.25 crores. His last film however,was Tiger Zinda Hai, which became the actor’s highest earning film till date. Its net collections were 339.16 crores.

Shah Rukh Khan

Well, it hasn’t really been a great time for the ‘King Khan’. His 2016 thriller Fan was commercially unsuccessful, despite receiving positive reviews from critics. It earned 85 crores at the box office. His next film, Raees, received mixed reviews from the audience and critics, but became a success, earning 137.51 crores. However, his latest film Jab Harry Met Sejal was a flop, not only under-performing at the box office, but also getting negative reviews.

THE VERDICT

With 788.89 crores earning by his last 3 films, Aamir Khan has become the most successful Khan out of the 3 for now. Not falling behind though, Salman is at a close second, with his last 3 films earning 760.86 crores. Shah Rukh Khan lags behind the 2, with his last 3 releases only having earned 285.01 crores in total. However, with all 3 of them coming out with new films this year, these rankings are bound to change.
