 However, the link, [http://www.therichest.com/rich-list/nation/richest-people-in-india/ The Richest], leads not to any Times of India site but to the ‘Richest People In India 2012 – Top 10 List.’ Kamaal Khan is not mentioned on that page: not as one of the Top 10 or even as among the Top 1,000 Indians. Therefore, his ‘estimated net worth of $23 million’ [Rs144.9 crore] will need further citation before it is accepted. The said link does not verify his residence in Zurich either.

 (284 Indians are worth $100 million or more. 175,000 Indian households are dollar millionaires. So, if Kamaal Khan is indeed worth $23 million, he would probably be among India’s 50,000 wealthiest. No rich list has space for that many names. Hence the credibility of this link is in doubt.)
 Kamaal Khan's statement to the Mumbai police did not sour things between Salman Khan and him. Kamaal continued to sing for his patron, superstar Salman Khan, not only after the statement of 2002 but also ''after 2007,'' when Kamaal is said to have 'disappeared' from Mumbai and India, as will be seen from the Discography below.
