Top Twenty Stars First Quarter 2019 - Ranveer Kangana Make Headway

Thursday 07 February 2019 12.15 IST

Box Office India Trade Network

There was a top twenty star list started here a couple of quarters back and the last quarter has seen a rise for Ranveer Singh and Kangana Ranaut. The jury is still out as to who is a bigger star between Ranveer Singh and Tiger Shroff as on fair value the opening of Baaghi 2 is as good if not better than Simmba which had a huge bonus od a top director front lining the film. But for the moment the lifetime success of Simmba and Tiger Shroff not consolidating the mega success of Baaghi 2 as yet means Ranveer Singh edges past for rankings..

The other change is Kangana Ranaut going up a few places. The film Marnikarnika may not be be a huge HIT but its a plus for the Kangana Ranaut as she was the only face of the film. It managed a 39 crore nett holiday weekend (32 crore nett fair value) which is a solid opening for a heroine film and will also put up a healthy final total. The top six stars remains as they were though the films of the top three did not perform last year though that is more about the films.

The third quarter 2018 update can be seen here. The fourth quarter 2018 update can be seen here.

The below positions are not based on just box office numbers as its difficult to bring in female stars that way as the credit (there will be a heroine top ten due to the number of people demanding one for heroines) has to be calculated and even male stars (barring Akshay Kumar in last few films) are padded with other elements and are not totally depending on themselves for the numbers. It takes everything into account and reflects that scenario. The positions of the last quarter are in brackets. The next update will be in Apr / May 2019.

1. Salman Khan (1)

2. Aamir Khan (2)

3. Shahrukh Khan (3)

4. Akshay Kumar (4)

5. Ranbir Kapoor (5)

6. Hrithik Roshan (6)

7. Ranveer Singh (10)

8. Tiger Shroff (7)

9. Varun Dhawan (8)

10. Ajay Devgn (9)

11. Alia Bhatt (11)

12. Deepika Padukone (12)

13. Kareena Kapoor (13)

14. John Abraham (14)

15. Katrina Kaif (15)

16. Kangana Ranaut (20)

17. Shahid Kapoor (16)

18. Arjun Kapoor (17)

19. Anushka Sharma (18)

20. Shraddha Kapoor (19)

BOI ranking is a joke...how is Arjun still in this list ? A big commercial film like Namaste England opened at a 1 crore and when was the last time he had a clean hit ? Even a big star cast film like Mubarakkan opened at a 5 cr .

Shraddha has given a huge hit, how is she behind Anushka Sharma who has delivered all flops last year?

Ranveer/Ranbir should both be in the Top 5.

Only on this forum, Rajkumar Rao "stardom" is more than Tiger Shroff!😆

They are really underrating Ajay here. Ajay is still bigger than these newbies.

Raj Kumar is popular and super talented actor but not as popular as Tiger. Yes Tiger is not a good actor but people love him regardless. He is super popular with the single screen crowd and kids, while only hardcore cinephiles are into Rajkumar. Casual crowd don't really know about him.

I have never seen any hall being houseful on first day, with the crowd shouting, hooting and screaming their lungs out for Rajkumar only, like people do for Tiger. And that is stardom and popularity.[BR] [BR]

they are completely different as entertainers. one is a mass entertainer and a bigger star in that sense. but rajkumar is not less of a "star", he is just a different entertainer. and his popularity will grow and even outdo tiger in the long run b/c he actually has acting talent.

This list about stars based on their popularity and box office pull, and Tiger is more popular and has more box office pull than Raj.

So I don't get your point.
