Clash of Khans: Shah Rukh races ahead of Salman, Aamir

Published

Bollywood's King Khan hit a new milestone on Twitter today, with the man getting 14 million followers on the social network site.

This pushes Shah Rukh to the top, with his contemporaries Aamir and Salman following close behind.

Aamir has 13.5 million Twitter followers, while Salman has 12.7 million followers.

Shah Rukh joined January in 2010, while Aamir joined in November 2009, and Salman in April 2010.

Although Aamir hit the social network earlier, he's far more frugal with his tweets when compared to the other Khans. Both Shah Rukh and Salman are very vocal on twitter, and keep their followers up to date with their movie promotions and other achievements.

In fact, SRK and Salman even sealed their renewed affection for each other, when one 'retweeted' the movie poster of the other. Even Aamir tweeted the poster of 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan'.

Soon after, Salman took to Twitter to stop his fans from trolling SRK and Aamir.

"Fan who is on a false identity using it to put another actor, friend, colleague down, is no fan of mine, don't like. Simple funda hai," he tweeted on June 8.

"Sharukh n Aamir hate it too. N for my fans don't let me dwn. Srk n amir khan r my friend toh buss. Bhad mein gaya No 1,2,3. Samjhe kya?"

He even threatened to quit the social media if his fans continued to hassle his celeb friends.

Shah Rukh is a regular on Twitter, sharing pictures of his family and film shoots with his fans.

Other Bollywood stars on Twitter

Amitabh Bachchan is top of the game with 15.7 million followers. He's constantly updating his fans about his movie news, and those of his son Abhishek.

Deepika Padukone also enjoys a massive fan base with 10.8 million Twitter followers. Apart from posting her movie news, she also praises her peers for their cinematic achievements.

Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra each share 10.2 million followers. While Hrithik has a love-hate relationship with his Twitter fan club, Priyanka's been fairly happy and unharmed.
