Prince Aamir is more popular than SRK nowadays in the US.. I can brings up stats if you want.
Akki is more popular than SRK in Canada!
Sallu is the most popular in the UAE

these are the major markets in overseas... only place where SRK is absolutely is untouchable like you are saying is UK.. the guy is a demi-god there as salman is in india!

Akki is very popular in Canada true and Salman in UAE..As for Aamir in the US, I'm not 100% sure...
But overall, it's SRK's movies that work.

Look at this:

Top Opening Weekends OVERSEAS
Rank	Film	Year	Gross US$	Gross Ind Rs	Note
1	My Name Is Khan	2010	$5,300,000	24,56,00,000	Record
2	Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna	2006	$4,400,000	20,51,00,000	Record
3	Om Shanti Om	2007	$4,350,000	17,01,00,000	-
4	Three Idiots	2009	$4,000,000	18,67,00,000	-
5	Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi	2008	$3,400,000	16,39,00,000	-

SRK's appeal lies mainly outside of India. Salman's in India...and Aamir is kinda like a worldwide thing 😆

BO is not about popularity its about totall collection So if afilm break records on one city and fail in all places can we say it arecord ??? Aamir is not more popular than Shahrukh and one film at the top doesnt mean he is more stronger look at how many filmin the top 10 list and you can see who is astronger .In overseas its Shahrukh and after along distance its Aamir and Hrithik .Then Salman and Akshay .

Oh i know SRK is THE most popular overseas in an overall picture! i was just referring to prince's "CAN'T BE TOUCHED" mantra, which is bullocks!

US thing is very much arguable! Brand Aamir has made huge strides in the US, is at par or even better than SRK now! recent total grosses in the US alone..

3 Idiots > MNIK

Ghajini > RNBDJ

TZP > CDI

Fanaa > Don

on top aamir khan production houses on basis of aamir's name open STRONG in the US market: peepli live, delhi belly are big hits and hell even dhobi ghat opened and grossed well there!

like i said, SRK only DOMINATES in every sense of the word in the UK/ Europe section of the overseas. in rest he can certainly eat a humble pie.

^Hmm I just checked BOI's top lifetime grossers in North America list. It's DOMINATED by SRK. 7 of the top 10 films belong to him. Yeah the top one is 3Idiots, but that's the only Aamir film.

just coz hrithik has 3 he's no. 2 and aamir's no. 3? by that logic

AJAY DEVGANNN >>>> HRITHIK ROSHAN in india!

golmaal 3, singhaam all grossed much above any hrithik starrers? 😆
