So it's Sultan, who dethroned Badshah, this year!

Bollywood's Bhaijaan Salman Khan has grabbed the top spot in the Forbes India Celebrity 100 List with an estimated income of Rs. 270.33 crore.

With this he has pushed Shah Rukh Khan in the second position, with an earning of Rs. 221.75 crore. This was an effect of his mixed year, both in terms of Box-Office and brand endorsement.

Virat Kohli bagged the third position with an earning of Rs. 134.44 crore, more than Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who holds the fifth position, earning Rs. 122.48 crore.
