Year Ender 2024: Whenever there is talk of Khan actors in Bollywood, the names of Shahrukh Khan-Salman Khan-Aamir Khan come up. There are other Khans in Bollywood who are not talked about much like Zayed Khan and Fardeen Khan. But there is one more Khan who is not counted in the Khan trinity of Bollywood but he competes with Shahrukh-Aamir-Salman in every aspect, be it stardom or acting.
By now you must have understood what we are talking about. Yes, the needle of your brain has turned in the right direction. Here we are talking about Bollywood’s ‘Lal Kaptaan’ Saif Ali Khan. When he plays the role of a rich person on screen, his nawabi look is visible. And when you come in a negative role? Remember ‘Langra Tyagi’, what more to say.
These three Khans are lagging behind Saif Ali Khan
Saif Ali Khan’s stardom has not diminished despite not being able to give any solo hit for the last several years. This is the reason why this year 2024 was not in the name of Shahrukh-Aamir-Salman, but in the name of Saif. He turned towards South cinema for the first time and when he appeared in his familiar style in a negative role, he got a lot of love from the audience.
This year, Saif Ali Khan Jr. was seen in NTR starrer ‘Devra Part 1’ and stole all the limelight. This film earned Rs 292.03 crore in India and if overseas income is added, the earning was Rs 421.63 crore.
Shahrukh-Salman-Aamir also remained in discussion for these reasons
It is not that Saif Ali Khan is the only one in the news. The remaining three Khans were also present in the discussion.
- Shahrukh Khan Last year, it had given business of more than Rs 2500 crore at the box office by releasing films like Jawan, Pathan and Danki. Because of this he became the highest tax paying celeb this year. According to the Fortune India list, he had paid tax of Rs 92 crore.
- Aamir Khan remained in the news because of the low budget but high amazing film ‘Laapta Ladies’ made in his production house. The film has been selected by India for Oscar 2025. After this he came into discussion even more.
- Apart from this, Salman Khan remained in the news for some different reasons like Baba Siddiqui murder and threats from Lawrence Bishnoi gang, firing outside his house. He also grabbed the limelight by hosting Bigg Boss 18 and making a cameo in Singham Again.
Still, Saif remained superior in this matter.
Due to the different reasons mentioned above, all three Khans remained in the news but none of them had any film this year. None of the three films were released. So it is clear that their contribution at the box office was zero.
But if we talk about Saif, he played an important role in making the film a pan India success just by being a part of the film Devara. Obviously, this year was in the name of Saif Ali Khan in terms of box office.
