Delivering back-to-back releases last year, including Kesari, Mission Mangal, Housefull 4 and Good Newwz, Akshay Kumar has featured in the Forbes 2020 list of highest-paid celebs in the world. He is the only Indian to have his name in the list! The actor lands at number 52 on this year’s Celebrity 100 with an estimated earnings of $48 million, and has out-earned some Hollywood stars like Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise.

“I just wanted to earn around one crore rupees, that’s it. But I’m a human being, and when I made my first, I thought, why can’t I make Rs100 crore! To be honest there was no stopping me,” shares the actor.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
