Question:
Who are the Khans of Bollywood?
Meet the Khans
No, not Genghis and Kubla. Meet Aamir, Shah Rukh, and Salman. These three men are all Khans, all unrelated, and are the top actors in Bollywood. Aamir Khan is known as the perfectionist, the "real" actor, as he is reknowned for throwing himself into preparations for each role he takes on. In fact, in a booming industry where many actors work on several films at once, Aamir Khan only works on one at a time! Shah Rukh Khan, or "King Khan," as he's known among fans, is perhaps the most loved star. Handsome and charming, he's the ultimate crowd-pleaser. Salman Khan is the braun of the trio. His pumped up sex appeal has garnered him a bit of a rough boy reputation, but it's kept him a top-grossing star for decades!
