Make way for the ultimate Badshaah of box office!
Shah Rukh Khan has officially proved he is the true king of the film industry by not only the kind of roles he does but also by the box office figures.The actor, who has always promoted his films extensively in India and overseas, recently marked his debut in the Rs 2000 crore club. He has become the third Indian actor to reach that milestone.
Yes, gone are the days when people talked about Rs 100 crore, 2016 is all about making it to the Rs. 2000 crore club. While SRK’s career graph has been on an all time high from past 5 years, it was his film Chennai Express directed by Rohit Shetty that paved way for amazing box office numbers for his role Rahul. The film that grossed Rs 227.13 crore was among the top 10 grossers of all time, including Bajrangi Bhaijaan and PK. Khiladi Akshay Kumar was the first one to achieve this feat followed by Salman Khan.
Chennai Express, Happy New Year, Dilwale, Jab Tak Hai Jaan and RA.One are the few top films that led him to the pedestal of Rs 2000 crore club. This is a much deserved victory for King Khan who puts his blood and sweat each film he does. The actor not only sees that his film gives due credit to his co-stars but also makes sure that the producers don’t go under loss, hence each film of his comes as a full-fledged entertainment package of a family entertainer.
This feat is only the beginning in the great Shah Rukh Khan’s life, who is still touching millions of hearts at the age of 50 but doesn’t look a day over 20!
