This milestone makes Shah Rukh Khan the richest actor in India, surpassing both national and international celebrities like Taylor Swift, Tom Cruise, and Selena Gomez. Known as the “Badshah of Bollywood,” Khan, 59, has seen substantial financial growth over the past year.
His diverse business ventures have contributed significantly to his wealth. Shah Rukh Khan owns the production company Red Chillies Entertainment, a VFX studio, and stakes in multiple cricket teams.

Additionally, his son made a successful directorial debut with the Netflix series The Ba**ds of Bollywood*, which received critical acclaim.
Looking ahead, Shah Rukh Khan is set to star in King, directed by Siddharth Anand. The film features his daughter Suhana Khan alongside Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, and Rani Mukerji. However, production has been delayed after Khan sustained an injury during filming, potentially postponing the release to early 2027.
Shah Rukh Khan’s impressive rise in wealth and continued contributions to cinema and business highlight his enduring influence in global entertainment. His journey remains a testament to his talent, vision, and entrepreneurial spirit.
