The Forbes Magazine has declared Shah Rukh Khan as the top Indian leader in the Arab World. Shah Rukh Khan became the first Indian celebrity to grace the cover of Forbes Middle East Special issue.

Shah Rukh Khan launched the special issue on May 13, 2014 at The Top Indian Leaders Event in Emirates. The actor has been ranked on top spot for his contribution to the entertainment industry.

“Forbes Middle-East made me feel special with their special edition cover story on my work in entertainment. Off to Dubai for the launch. Thank you all,” Shah Rukh Khan posted on twitter.

Around a hundred and seventy individuals are listed in the top Indian leaders list, according to Emirates 24/7. The list was compiled after extensive and detailed research into Indian business people that are residing or operating their business in the Arab country.

The organisers have also included a small ceremony to felicitate Shah Rukh, which will be followed by a gala dinner and awards ceremony in the Godolphin Ballroom, Jumeirah Emirates Towers.

Last year, Shah Rukh Khan has topped the Forbes India’s Celebrity 100 List.

Coming to his films, Shah Rukh Khan is already working on Farah Khan‘s Happy New Year and will start the shooting of his next project Raees during his birthday.

Shah Rukh Khan and Farhan Akhtar starrer Raees will go on floors from November 01, 2014. Here’s wishing King Khan all the best for both his achievement as well as for his upcoming movies.
