The top actors in the industry are the men who drive the industry. Without them the star-driven Hindi film industry would struggle for its very existence.
For some unknown reason, the industry hasn’t been able to produce too many bankable stars in the last few years. Four of the current Top 5 actors, made their debut before before 1993. Since then, only Hrithik Roshan has managed to make it to the ‘superstar’ league and even he made his debut 16 years ago.
Fortunately, in the last few years, actors like Varun Dhawan, Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh have shown a lot of promise and along with the likes of Arjun Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra, these younger generation actors could well be the superstars of the future.
Akshay Kumar – Salman Khan – Shah Rukh Khan
Akshay Kumar has been the most prolific actor over the years. He started his career with low-budget films, a lot of them borderline B-grade, but the superstar has never let failures affect him. The result? Akshay is one of the top actors in the industry today and holds the record for the highest career collections. The total collections of all his 106 movies currently stands at Rs 2781 crore.
The second best is the megastar himself, the numero uno star in the industry today. A 28-year-long career that has seen depressing lows to incredible never-before-witnessed heights. Salman Khan’s 73 movies have contributed Rs 2648 crore to the industry.
With films like Housefull 3, Rustom and Sultan, it’ll be interesting to see which actor becomes the first to cross the Rs 3000 crore mark.
At No 3 is the incredible Shah Rukh Khan, arguably the only actor in the industry to have a career of more than 2 decades, without having to go through prolonged periods of failures. His success ratio is the highest and almost all his films have taken a good opening at the box office.
Ajay Devgn – Aamir Khan – Hrithik Roshan
Ajay Devgn is ahead of Aamir Khan and the only reason for this is the big difference in the number of films that they have done. Aamir currently holds the record for the best average (per film) for actors who made their debut before 2000.
Hrithik Roshan averages 60 crore per film, which is excellent for an actor who made his debut 16 years ago. Varun Dhawan’s average is the overall best (84 crore per film), but it shouldn’t be compared to actors who made their debut before 2010.

For All Those Who Call Akki Bhai A 80 Crs. ACTOR And For All Akki’s Haters…
Well, Many haters have been continuously barking that Akki is 80 Crs. ACTOR, Akki is not able to deliver 200 Crs. Movie Or Where All Khans are targeting 100, 200, 300 Crores, Where Akki is failed to do so, RIGHT…???
Now, Keep Your Sick Brain Calm And Listen With Both Ears Opened…
YOUR SO CALLED TALENT LESS ACTOR CAN TARGET 100, 200 OR 300 CRORES ( BY RELEASING 1 MOVIE IN 365 DAYS OF A YEAR ), OUR AKKI HAS TARGETED 1000 AND 2000 CRORES…
Hahahahahahahaha, Laga Shock?
See the difference, You Haters…!!!
And, Waittt…
3000 Crores will be achieved first by None other than THE AKSHAY “KHILADI” KUMAR…
Your so called actors will keep doing 100, 200 or 300 Crores by Our Akki will keep doing first 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000 and continuous…!!!
You know why?
Kyunki, Sher jab 2 kadam pichhe hota hai to darr ke nahi, jhhapatne ke liye…
@Unmatchable 60 Cr club Floppy: Yes, no one can match akki bhai in terms of flops, disasters and greedyness. The Greedy Gobar has crossed all the possible boundaries of bandargiri with his mediocre crappy floppy films. He is not even a star. Doing 110 or more craps and crossing only 2700 Cr is indeed a shame. Because a real supertastar’s career analysis after so many films should be more than at least 6000 Cr.
Akshay movies total collection 2948 (special 26 22cr 33cr shaukeen you not add)
