Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has joined India's billionaire club after featuring on the M3M Hurun India Rich List 2025. With this, he has positioned himself as the richest actor in the country with a net worth of Rs 12,490 crore, which is approximately $1.4 billion.
Khan, who is on a roll with his recent National Award win, also beats top global names like Taylor Swift with $1.3 billion and action superstar turned politician Arnold Schwarzenegger with $1.2 billion.

A leading figure in Hindi cinema for nearly three decades, Khan has significantly increased his wealth through diverse investments. These include his ownership of Red Chillies Entertainment, a production house and VFX studio, as well as stakes in multiple cricket teams worldwide. Additionally, he holds substantial real estate investments in the Middle East.
Juhi Chawla, Shah Rukh Khan's business partner, along with her family, holds the second spot on the wealth list among actors with a net worth of $935.76 million, according to Hurun.
The Hurun list also noted the resurgence of Mukesh Ambani and family to the top spot in the country. Crowned once again as the richest person in the country, Ambani was dethroned last year by Gautam Adani. This year, however, Adani and his family's $9.18 billion is narrowly defeated by Ambani family's $11.46 billion net worth.
Roshni Nadar Malhotra and family have entered the top three for the first time, with a net worth of $3.41 billion, making her the wealthiest woman in India.
Among the NRIs, Gopichand Hinduja & family, with a wealth of $2.21 billion have once again taken the top spot. Close behind is steel magnate LN Mittal & family, based in London, with a wealth of $2.10 billion.
Jay Chaudhry, the San Jose-based founder of cybersecurity leader Zscaler, ranks third with a net worth of $1.6 billion, highlighting the prominence of Indian-origin entrepreneurs in the technology industry.
