Kapil Sharma is not just the name of a comedian anymore, as it has become a brand now and even Forbes has recognized his talent as well as the good work being done by the comedian-actor. Undoubtedly, the comedy king has worked very hard to achieve the whole lot he has till date but still we have to admit that his rise has been phenomenal.
Kapil has secured rank 7 in Forbes list and this is related to the fame that he enjoys and you will be surprised to know that he has left behind superstars like Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone and Aamir Khan. You will be more amazed to know that Kapil may have got rank 7 in the Forbes Celebrity List in 2016 but he was at the 27th rank in 2015; a great leap, we must say.
Now if we talk about the money matters, Kapil is at number 11 and in simple words, he makes more money than Ranveer Singh, A.R. Rahman and Aamir Khan. Wonderful, isn’t it? How much he has grown from 2015 to 2016 can be understood by the fact that he was at number 51 last year and at present, he is the TV’s richest star.
He has left his competitors Bharti Singh and Krushna Abhishek far behind as they are on number 98 and 100, respectively.
Preeti Simoes, the creative head of the show and rumored girlfriend of the comedian also congratulated Kapil on his success. She tweeted, “Congratulations @KapilSharmaK9 on yet another milestone in ur legacy.. 11 the position by @forbes_india … Keep growing”
