Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan have significantly influenced Bollywood for over forty years.
During a conversation with Komal Nahta, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap expressed his opinion on who is the most popular of the three Khans. He unequivocally identified Shah Rukh as the standout figure among the trio, with Salman following closely and Aamir in third place.
Anurag stated, “Lokpriya toh Shah Rukh hi he, Salman he phir Aamir he. Sabse mehnati aur shrewd Aamir he” (Shah Rukh is the most popular, followed by Salman, then Aamir. Aamir is the hardest worker and quite shrewd). He notes Aamir’s production skills as noteworthy.
Although Anurag hasn’t worked with the three Khans, his brother Abhinav Kashyap directed Salman in the hit film “Dabangg.” However, their collaboration ended tumultuously.
Last month, all three Khans reunited at the Joy Forum in Riyadh, sharing insights on their long careers and friendship.
Shah Rukh has been out of the spotlight, with his last film “Dunki” released in 2023. He recently received the National Award for Best Actor for his role in “Jawan.” Fans last glimpsed Aamir in “Sitaare Zameen Par,” while Salman’s latest release, “Sikandar,” hit theatres during Eid. He is currently hosting “Bigg Boss 19.”
Upcoming for Shah Rukh is “King,” which features Suhana Khan and Deepika Padukone. The title reveal video drew significant attention on social media during his birthday celebration.
