I Seriously Don’t Have That Money: Salman Khan On Being The Highest Paid Bollywood Actor As Per Forbes!

Even though Salman Khan’s latest outing, Tubelight, received mixed reviews from the critics and audiences, he is still the same for his fans. He is not just one of the most loved actors of the time, but also one of the highest paid actors of the country. The Tere Naam actor was recently listed on the top in the Forbes top 100 highest-paid celebrities of 2017.

When the actor was asked about his take on this, he said, “You know Shah Rukh and I were speaking last night, and we said, “Yeh kya (Forbes’ list) hai? Hamesha, we fall short of money to buy this or that…” I still haven’t been able to buy my house. I used to fall short by a few lakhs before, and then it became a crore, then few, and now I’m short by quite a few crores to buy my own place. And then this Forbes’ list! I don’t have that money. I seriously don’t have that money. I was going through it and going, “Yeh paise kahan hai, bhai? Kidhar?” When a film makes Rs 500 crore, only a very nominal amount from that comes to you. It’s just that your business is worth Rs 500 crore”.

He further elaborated on how his money is distributed and what comes to him. He continued,“But with Being Human clothing, we have a partner who takes a certain amount. From what comes to us, we pay taxes, and then it goes back to Being Human. The same thing with cycles, jewellery… Our business interest is towards what we can put into the charitable trust. We were already putting in a lot”.

On a related note, the actor is occupied with Tiger Zinda Hai under the direction of Ali Abbas Zafar.
