Shah Rukh Khan breaks Rajnikant's record!

Shah Rukh Khan is often referred to as ‘King Khan’. He is easily the superstar of cinema, not only in Bollywood but in the entire country. He has not only held his own but has surpassed the legendary Amitabh Bachchan in popularity as well as remuneration. He proved this once again when he hosted the popular game show KBC on Star TV after Amitabh Bachchan took ill and could not continue.

Shah Rukh Khan or simply SRK has now gone ahead and broken another record. Till recently superstar Rajnikanth was the highest paid actor in India. No other actor came anywhere close to him. But the honor now goes to SRK. He is now charging 30 crore per film against Rajnikanth’s 25 crore. This steep hike is due to the entry of corporate companies into film making. SRK is rated as hero who can be given Rs 30 Cr keeping the target market in consideration.

Action hero Jackie Chan is easily the highest paid actor in Asia. He commands a whopping 50 crore per film. Looking at the way SRK is going, it may not be too difficult for him to break this record too.
