His latest release, Ghajini, broke all box-office records. And now Aamir Khan has created another record - of being the highest paid star when it comes to endorsements.
Aamir beats Shahid Kapoor, who was paid seven crore for an ad campaign. Aamir is reportedly paid Rs 10 crore to renew the contract of a multinational cola brand that he endorses.
Khan has gone out of his way in the past to ensure that his ads for this brand are drastically different, with the actor appearing with a new look each time. Now, he is making sure that the next ad will also be much talked about.
His fans are already awaiting the next ad.
