He's definitly the most popular in India..
Around the world, nope.


Agreed. Salman Khan is so darn popular in India, especially in Hyderbad. But internatioally, or at least in Europe, Middleeast, and North America, its SRK all the way. Or as they say, Sharook Kan 😆. Salman Khan is local chillar party maal. Both are very different but also very unique in their own ways.

In indian box office the only thing matter that which actor is more famous in india...popularity outside india count later...

Srk used to be famous in India till few yrs back...now salman is most popular actor in india.

Popularity in North America or any part of america doesn't matter to masses who go to watch bollywood movies in India...ultimately they r the one who makes movie successful in Indian box office.

Yup.. And in places like China, Malaysia, Mauritius..

Salman's very popular in Pakistan though.. They seem to dislike SRK a lot.

Box office isn't everything.. Crap movies like KSKHH or Jism 2 were hit though..
Emraan Hashmi's films are mostly hits.. Why isn't he so popular?

Indian movies are actually viewed with keen interest in the west FYI..
A lot of SRK's films are viewed for courses in school.. Heck even Madhur's movies are watched in school here..

@ bold. I think that's just wishful thinking.

Of course, box office matters alot but it depends on where you live. I have never lived in India so I could care less about which actor and movie is popular over there. I have always lived overseas so obviously I'm only concerned about overseas box office and appeal.

There is no doubt srk is most popular bollywood actor outside India...But at his home country India he is much behind salman in popularity...

Well Bollywood is global thus global popularity counts as well..
It's not just about Box Office Solely in India..
Like Eraser said, I've lived my whole life in Canada, thus I'd go by the numbers here..

It's not wishful thinking...it's reality currently.

You r right...you lived overseas,so you r more concerned abt overseas box office collection & popularity...I live in india,so i m more concerned abt Domestic box office collection & popularity in India...

Even Bollywood Directors & actors make movies by keeping domestic box office collection in mind.

Quality vs. Quantity...Box office measures quantity...critical acclaim tells u the quality...for people who are stuck at quantity and 100 crore and 200 cr...of course SRK's popularity in the west won't matter...RR, Dabang, Ready, Ra-one,Housefull2...have all crossed 100 crore mark( but were trash.)...does that translate into quality though...NO...where as 3 idiots was one movie which had quality and quantity both...
