Shah Rukh Khan is the first actor from India to earn INR25 billion from his movies in a single year
Shah Rukh Khan has once again shown his unmatched star power in the Indian film industry. The Bollywood superstar made a spectacular return in 2023 with the release of three huge hits: Jawan, Dunki, and Pathaan.
This accomplishment is all the more remarkable considering that, before the year was out, these movies brought in an incredible Rs2,500 crores (INR 25 billion) in total revenue. Trade analyst Ramesh Bala, who made the revelation on Twitter, claims that Shah Rukh Khan is now the first star from India to accomplish such a significant goal in a single year.
Rajkumar Hirani’s Dunki, Shah Rukh’s third film, is still doing well at the box office throughout the world. The film is predicted to make INR 200 crore (INR 2 billion) at the local box office, according to Hindustan Times, one day after surpassing the coveted INR 400 crore (INR 4 billion) mark overseas.
With the release of Pathaan in January 2023, Shah Rukh’s ascent to the INR 25 billion club began. After a four-year break, he made his big-screen comeback with the movie, which starred John Abraham, Deepika Padukone, and Dimple Kapadia among its ensemble cast.
After the early victory, Jawan debuted on September 7 and starred Shah Rukh in an action-packed role. The film, which was directed by Atlee, starred Nayanthara, Vijay Sethupathi, Sanya Malhotra, Priyamani, and Ridhi Dogra, among other talented actors. The success was maintained by “Jawan,” which demonstrated Shah Rukh Khan’s versatility as a performer.
Shah Rukh’s Dunki, which debuted on December 21 and is now showing in Indian theaters, is the year’s standout film. It tells the heartwarming story of a group of friends who are trying to start over overseas.
