As per the Forbes list, Akshay grabbed the 52nd spot among 100 people. His estimated annual income is whopping $48.5 million. However, the actor saw a drop of 19 places as he was at 33rd position last year with estimated income of $65 million. Forbes called Akshay “Bollywood’s top-earning star”.

“A bankable movie star, he commands up to $13 million upfront for films like the upcoming Bachan Pandey and Bell Bottom.” Forbes also wrote he was “one of India’s most philanthropic celebrities, he donated $4.5 million to coronavirus relief in the country.”

Jenner responded that it was based on “a number of inaccurate statements and unproven assumptions."
