Shah Rukh Khan, the undisputed king of Bollywood, had an incredible year in 2023, leaving a lasting mark on the film industry. His three movies, Pathaan, Jawan, and Dunki, not only did well at the box office but also set new records.
In India alone, Shah Rukh Khan’s movies made over 1280 crores, creating a new record for the highest earnings in a single year. His global popularity was evident, too, with the combined earnings of Pathaan, Jawan, and Dunki crossing a massive 2600 crores worldwide.
Shah Rukh Khan Broke Record
What’s even more impressive is Khan’s ability to attract audiences to theatres. In an age where fewer people go to single-screen theatres, Khan became the first actor to get over 8 crore people to watch his movies in a year. This is a big deal, especially when, nowadays, most movies get around 3–3.50 crore viewers.
Breaking it down, Pathaan and Jawan both got over 3 crores of people to watch them in India. Dunki, still running, is expected to cross 1 crore viewers. Together, these three movies are set to have over 8 crore people watching them, a remarkable achievement in today’s movie landscape.
Shah Rukh Khan’s popularity isn’t just a recent thing; it dates back to the ’90s. In 1995, his movies got over 10 crore people to watch them, a record that still stands today.
As we wrap up 2023, it’s clear that Shah Rukh Khan is still the reigning star of Bollywood. With records broken, milestones reached, and audiences captivated, the ‘King of Romance’ has once again shown that he’s the boss at the box office.
