Gone are the days when Hollywood actors used to enjoy a monopoly in the list of richest actors in the world. Given the huge pay cheques they get Hollywood actors will always have an advantage compared to others. But actors from India are also not less when compared to Hollywood actors in terms of net worth.
Bollywood actors are giving tough competition to Hollywood actors in terms of earning high incomes. King Khan Shah Rukh Khan became one of the richest actors in the world and even surpassed a few Hollywood actors. The Khan hero is ahead of Tom Cruise and Jackie Chan in the elite list.
As per the list that was released recently, Shah Rukh Khan emerged as the fourth richest actor in the world with a huge net worth of $770 Billion. Besides acting, he also produces films and the hero is one of the busy actors. Shah Rukh Khan also appears in ads and he is preferred by the brands.
Shah Rukh Khan’s films do good business overseas and in Arab nations, his films set the box office on fire and the makers won’t shy away from paying huge amounts as remuneration. It is no wonder that Shah Rukh Khan entered the list. He even surpassed big names like Tom Cruise, Jackie Chan, George Clooney, and Robert De Niro.
Shah Rukh Khan ruled Bollywood for around two long decades. His charm and charisma are his biggest assets and even Hollywood stars are his fans. The iconic Burj Khalifa in Dubai was lit up on his Birthday as a bid to honour him.
Though he failed to deliver a big hit in recent years he is one of the highest-paid actors in the world and he stood at the fourth position on the list of richest actors in the world. This speaks big volumes about his stardom and star power.
