Diljit Dosanjh and Ranbir Kapoor are also among the top celebs. The list was published by the UK's weekly Eastern Eye. An excerpt from the list mentioned about Shah Rukh, "Khan will become the first leading man from the modern era to have three huge Bollywood blockbuster hits in a calendar year.

By drawing big audiences back into cinema halls with global juggernauts, the actor gave a movie industry that has been in deep decline a much needed boost and had a transformative effect. The history-making superstar eclipsed everyone else with his brilliance and reminded global audiences what escapist Bollywood cinema is capable of.”
