Highlights

  • Shah Rukh Khan’s estimated fortune is now around $1.2 billion, according to the Hurun India Rich List 2026
  • His estimated wealth has fallen by around $300 million from last year
  • Even after the drop, his reported fortune is higher than the combined estimates for Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan and Hrithik Roshan
  • SRK’s wealth includes his business interests, including Red Chillies Entertainment and Knight Riders Sports

Shah Rukh Khan has seen a major change in his estimated fortune, but he remains at the top of India’s actor wealth rankings.

According to the Hurun India Rich List 2026, the actor’s estimated wealth stands at Rs 10,000 crore, roughly $1.2 billion. Last year, Hurun valued his wealth at Rs 12,490 crore, or around $1.5 billion, putting the latest figure roughly $300 million lower.


Yet the new figure still places SRK in a league of his own among the actors featured on the list.

SRK’s fortune compared with Bollywood’s biggest stars

The figures become more striking when SRK’s estimated wealth is compared with the other actors on the list.

  • Shah Rukh Khan: about $1.2 billion
  • Amitabh Bachchan: about $480 million
  • Salman Khan: about $360 million
  • Hrithik Roshan: about $300 million

Together, the estimated fortunes of Amitabh, Salman and Hrithik come to around $1.14 billion, still slightly below SRK’s reported $1.2 billion.

The figures are Hurun’s wealth estimates and include assets and business interests, rather than representing cash holdings.

What is behind Shah Rukh Khan’s wealth?

SRK’s wealth extends well beyond his film salary. His business interests include production company Red Chillies Entertainment and Knight Riders Sports, which owns cricket teams including the Kolkata Knight Riders.

The actor’s position on the list also comes despite not having released a film since 2023. That year saw him headline Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki.

His next major release is King, directed by Siddharth Anand and also starring his daughter Suhana Khan. The film is scheduled to hit theaters on December 24.

Amitabh, Salman and Hrithik see changes

Amitabh Bachchan ranks second among the actors listed, with an estimated wealth of Rs 4,000 crore, around $480 million. His figure is substantially higher than the Rs 1,630 crore reported for him in the 2025 list.

Salman Khan is listed at Rs 3,000 crore, around $360 million, making him a new entry among the actors this year.

Hrithik Roshan’s estimated wealth has also risen, from Rs 2,160 crore in 2025 to Rs 2,500 crore, around $300 million, with his brand HRX contributing to his business portfolio.

While SRK’s estimated wealth has fallen, the latest figures show that he remains the richest Indian actor on the Hurun India Rich List 2026.
