Wasn't Ajay Devgan popular since 90's? He should be in the list too.

He was CLEARLY behind Shah rukh in the 90's, he was behind Sunny deol too.

80's Amitabh.

90's Srk (sunny is debatable)

00's Srk (no contest)

2010's Aamir (Salman is debatable)

Great topic!

There were several popular stars in each decade, especially the earlier eras. Nowadays, thanks to the rise of social media, we have lots of celebrities, who are not necessarily popular cinestars (i.e. famous due to PR hype rather than their films).

1950s

Raj Kapoor

Dilip Kumar

Dev Anand

Bharat Bhushan

Guru Dutt amassed a cult following over time, even though he was not that big a superstar in the 50s

Ashok Kumar, too...but he is someone I would put in the 40s superstars list

1960s

Dev Anand

Shammi Kapoor

Rajendra Kumar

Joy Mukherjee

Sunil Dutt

Raj Kumar had a strong following for his style/voice

Also agree with the member who said Manoj Kumar. He was quite popular with the cinema-goers who liked patriotic films.

1970s

Rajesh Khanna

Amitabh Bachchan

Dharmendra

Jeetendra

Vinod Khanna

Shashi Kapoor was also very popular

1980s

Amitabh Bachchan

Mithun

Rishi Kapoor

Jackie Shroff

Anil Kapoor

1990s

Shah Rukh Khan

Aamir Khan

Salman Khan

Ajay Devgan

Sunny Deol

Sanjay Dutt (early 90s)

2000s

Shah Rukh Khan

Aamir Khan

Akshay Kumar

Salman Khan

Saif Ali Khan (He was hugely popular with the urban crowd in the early/mid 2000s)

2010s

Aamir Khan

Ranbir Kapoor

Shah Rukh Khan

Salman Khan

Varun Dhawan

@bold-

hathon mein laptop aur thoda sa internet mil gaya toh kuch bhi likhoge kya ?

Srk LOL kuch bhi.. uska toh poora career yrf aur karan johar ne banaya hai.. ab woh bhi flop ho gaye toh srk bhi pit chuka hai.. SRK could not even cross HAHK in whole 90's and in 2000s could not even get highest grosser of year when hrithik commercial movie released .. thoo🤢

@red-

my ass he is debatable.. salman has not even crossed Aamir's records even once since ghajini.. he gets highest grossers of the year only when Aamir is on leave i.e no aamir commercial movie release that year.. kaahe ka number 1? thoo🤢

so facts are

90s salman

00s hrithik

10s aamir

i feel 20s will belong to tiger shroff or ranveer singh
