I have to disagree with Lauren...
SRK is like Tom Cruise...Not Salman Khan...
Tom Cruise has huge international following but his movies don't do that well in USA...except for Mission Impossible...Same with SRK..an international star but in India he is losing ground to the likes of Salman Khan...
Tom Cruise couching jumping and Scientology has put him in negative light. Tom Cruise was know to have greater control over his life and media but his love affair with katie Holmes doomed him. He changed his PR agency and appointed his sister as his PR Manager and all hell break lose. Couch Jumping..promotion of Scientology...over the board PDA with Katie Holmes...very unlike of Tom Cruise.
TC still he has huge following in US with older audience...younger generation don't prefer him that much.
SRK too is going the same way. He has been in news for all the wrong reasons last few years. SRK of 90s and early 2000s used to own media but lately he has been at the receiving end. Older generation still swears by SRK but i don't think Gen Next from India is crazy about SRK.
Salman Khan right now is taking Indian Box Office by storm...but TC is not doing so at US box office. Also salman is in news for all the right reason unlike late 90s-early 2000s where he got the bad-boy image.
