December 26, 2017 14:24 IST

Right from the time he hit his first century with Dabangg in December 2010, the star has accumulated 12 box office centuries in just 7 years.

Salman Khan has proven he is the undisputed Number One in Bollywood.

His Christmas release Tiger Zinda Hai has crossed the Rs 100 crore (Rs 1 billion) mark quickly, making it Salman's 12th century in a row.

Right from the time he hit his first century with Dabangg in December 2010, the star has accumulated 12 box office centuries -- films that have grossed Rs 100 crore plus -- in just 7 years.

While Salman has scored these dozen centuries all by himself, Shah Rukh Khan has 7 BO centuries while Aamir Khan has 5.

Akshay Kumar, by the way, has 8 BO centuries; Ajay Devgn 7.

Salman may increase his count with Race 3 arriving on Eid 2018, Bharat and Dabangg 3.
