MUMBAI: Bollywood superstar Datuk Shah Rukh Khan celebrated his 61st birthday on Nov 2, continuing to cement his status as one of the world's wealthiest actors with an estimated net worth of 10,000 crore rupees (around RM4.28 billion).

The figure comes from the 2026 Hurun India Rich List, which once again places "King Khan" at the very top of India's list of rich actors.

Even though NDTV Profit reported a dip from his 2025 estimate of 12,490 crore rupees (about RM5.36 billion), the "Badshah of Bollywood" remains comfortably ahead of his peers.

His fortune isn't built on acting alone. Shah Rukh has built a sprawling business empire spanning film production, sports, real estate, and major brand deals.
