Profile
Bollywood's most enduring star continues to solidify his position in the Top 10. A multitude of endorsements and his continued presence on the game show, Kaun Banega Crorepati, which just finished season 8, keep him on our TV screens. As for movies, Big B had just one release, Bhoothnath Returns, which did average business at the box office. The superstar's role in a psychological thriller, 20-episode miniseries Yudh, drew far more attention as it was his first fictional role on Indian television. But despite the inevitable initial buzz, a weak storyline failed to sustain viewership.
Fast Fact: Bachchan's relevance continues to grow. Proof: He is India's most popular celebrity on Twitter, with over 11.8 million followers.
