As the Bhai of Bollywood turns 52 today, Social Samosa takes a look at some of the most popular Salman Khan campaigns over the years.

Controversy's favourite child Salman Khan has always managed to churn Bollywood blockbusters and is a favourite with brands. While his roaster of endorsements, may not have a beeline of brands, but he is a popular face on television nonetheless.

According to Forbes India Celebrity 100 list, Salman Khan has recently topped the 2017 charts with Rs 232.83 crore revenue earnings. Last year, he minted Rs 270.33 crore. This year, Salman Khan’s total earnings may have come down from the previous year by about Rs 37 crore but the actor is still ahead of other celebrities. Second in the list is actor Shah Rukh Khan, who is way behind with Rs 170.50 crore.

Khan is also the face of the popular reality show Bigg Boss and if rumours are to be believed, he has charged a whopping Rs 11 crore per episode for the latest season of Bigg Boss 11.

His controversial statements have always made him the center of attention, be it his tweet in support of Yakub Menon or comparing the rigorous shooting during Sultan to that of feeling like a raped woman. In fact, recently an FIR has been lodged against the actor for using the word 'bhangi' on a public platform and hurting the sentiments of the Scheduled caste community. He hasn't apologized and is keeping mum on the situation. His unending brawls with other actors like Vivek Oberoi and Shah Rukh Khan is known to all.

In spite of all the controversies he gets embroiled in, the value of brand Salman Khan has not dipped over the year. His latest movie, which released this Christmas 'Tiger Zinda Hai' has already crossed the Rs 150 crore club in a short time.
