‘You must make a song for my movie’: Ed Sheeran recalls Shah Rukh Khan’s personal pitch for King

On November 2, Bollywood sensation Shah Rukh Khan marked his 61st birthday, solidifying his position as one of the world's wealthiest actors with an estimated net worth of around RM4.28 billion. The 2026 Hurun India Rich List reaffirms King Khan's top spot among India's richest actors, despite a slight dip from his 2025 valuation of 12,490 crore rupees (RM5.36 billion).

Beyond acting, Khan's wealth stems from a diverse business portfolio. Co-owner of the Kolkata Knight Riders cricket team in the IPL with actress Juhi Chawla and her husband Jay Mehta, Khan also runs the film production company Red Chillies Entertainment, which produced blockbuster hits like Om Shanti Om and Dear Zindagi. The company's visual effects division, Red Chillies VFX, plays a significant role in India's film industry.

Khan's prestigious Mumbai residence, Mannat, valued at 300 crore rupees (RM128.7 million), stands as a prime asset. His overseas properties include a Dubai villa, a London apartment, and a sprawling farmhouse in Alibaug equipped with a pool and helipad, worth approximately 15 crore rupees (RM6.44 million). Khan's luxury car fleet includes a Bugatti Veyron, BMW i8, and various high-end Mercedes-Benz and Rolls-Royce models.

Brand ambassadorships for companies like Hyundai and Dubai Tourism add to his earnings, with endorsements reportedly bringing in around 150 crore rupees (RM64.35 million) annually.
