This Khan has turned tables Salmanwards with his latest film Ek Tha Tiger. After making the fastest Rs. 100 crore at the Indian box office, ETT is expected to cross the 200 crore mark. It has already garnered Rs. 210 crore if we count overseas collections as well. With Salmania at its peak, we ran a poll to see if he's the biggest Khan right now.
At the time of publishing this story, with more than 73% of votes in his favour, Salman Khan emerges as the unbeatable king of Bollywood as far as this opinion poll is concerned. Aamir and SRK have received around 13% votes each. Saif Ali Khan, who is rising slowly to make it to the Khan league, has got a handful of votes.
