Khaberni - Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan has joined the list of billionaires in India after his net worth reached about 1.4 billion dollars, according to the "Hurun" ranking of the richest people in India for 2025.
With this achievement, the Indian star has become one of the world's richest celebrities, alongside names like Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Tiger Woods, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, according to economictimes.
Shahrukh Khan, who is 59 years old, is nicknamed the "King of Romance" in Bollywood, after a career spanning more than three decades during which he dominated the box office.
However, his enormous wealth was not built on acting alone, but relied on diverse investments in the entertainment, sports, and real estate sectors. He owns the film production company Red Chillies Entertainment and holds a stake in the famous cricket team Kolkata Knight Riders in the Indian Premier League, in addition to his income from advertising and real estate investments both inside and outside India.
Analysts believe that Shahrukh Khan's entry into the billionaires' club reflects a significant shift in the Indian economy, where sectors such as entertainment, sports, and intellectual property rights have become key drivers of wealth creation, similar to what happens in the United States.
