# Who is better? Salman Khan or Shahrukh Khan?

Who is better? Salman [Khan or Shahrukh Khan](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/33191/who-has-the-larger-fan-following-salman-khan-or-shahrukh-khan)?

## Answers

### Answer by Vishal Kesarwani

## Well, that depends

Is he better at pulling a crowd to the theatres than Shah Rukh? Yes, kind of. That's crystal evident from his movie collections. Is he better at doing the versatile and wide range of roles Shah Rukh has portrayed so far in his 25– 26-year-old career in the film industry? A. Big. NO. He tried doing something new with Jai Ho and Tubelight and we all saw how they sank at the box office. \

Is he a better person than Shah Rukh? Another big NO. Shah Rukh's had two…fine 3 small controversies that I know of so far in his personal and professional life. And he's tried to undo all of them and apologized like anything for them. On the other hand, Salman's got hit-and-run, poaching, and that insensitive and completely illogical rape-comment for his routine in Sultan, and he's never apologized nor backed off or tried to undo them. Getting acquitted by law just adds to the hate-fire. \
So while he may be evolved as a person (which I don't think he has, actually, coz the rape-comment), he's not as good an actor or businessman as Shah Rukh Khan. **\****" All the best"**
