Shah Rukh Khan is second wealthiest in list of Hollywood and Bollywood stars
NEW DELHI: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has edged past Hollywood bigwigs like Tom Cruise and Johnny Depp to be listed second in the top 10 wealthiest celebrity list.
According to Wealth-X’s Hollywood and Bollywood Rich List released on 21 May, the 48-year-old actor is estimated to have a fortune of over $600 million.
Comedian Jerry Seinfeld tops the list with a fortune of $820 million. Cruise is third, with a fortune of $480 million, while Tyler Perry and Depp are fourth and fifth respectively with an estimated wealth of $450 million each.
With over 50 Hindi films in his 20-year career, Khan co-owns the Indian Premier League cricket team Kolkata Knight Riders, and has his own production company, Red Chilies Entertainment.
Married to Indian film producer Gauri Chibber, Khan’s vast fortune includes homes in Mumbai, Delhi, Dubai and London. Much of Khan’s wealth comes from highly lucrative endorsement deals with companies such as Nokia, Pepsi and TAG Heuer, the Guardian reported. His savvy marketing skills lead Forbes Middle East to recently place him number one in their annual ranking of the world’s top Indian leaders.
Several Academy Award winners are featured on the list, including three-time Oscar winner Jack Nicholson, who has a net worth of $400 million, putting the 77-year-old actor in seventh spot, while Tom Hanks is in eighth place with a personal fortune of $390 million. Clint Eastwood, who at 84 is the oldest actor in the list, has an estimated personal fortune of $370 million, making him the nineth wealthiest. Bill Cosby shares the eighth spot with Hanks with $380 million, while Adam Sandler is on the tenth spot, with $340 million.

Dhurandhar returns to theatres worldwide on March 13 ahead of Dhurandhar The Revenge release
Jio Studios re-releases blockbuster across 500 screens globally before sequel
MUMBAI: The spy saga of Dhurandhar is gearing up for a big-screen encore before its next chapter arrives.
Ahead of the release of Dhurandhar The Revenge on March 19, Jio Studios and B62 Studios are bringing the original Dhurandhar back to cinemas worldwide in a rare international theatrical re-release.
The global blockbuster is returning across nearly 500 screens, including around 250 in India from March 12 and another 250 overseas beginning March 13.
For fans of the franchise, the move offers a chance to revisit the film that ignited the high-octane spy-action universe just days before the sequel lands in theatres. It also sets up a rare back-to-back big-screen experience, allowing audiences to relive the original before diving straight into the next chapter.
While re-releases of popular films are occasionally seen in India, international re-runs of Hindi films remain uncommon. The scale of the rollout reflects the growing global appetite for the franchise.
In North America alone, Dhurandhar will return to theatres across nearly 185 screens, highlighting the strong anticipation surrounding the upcoming sequel.
The excitement is set to build further with special Wednesday premiere shows of Dhurandhar The Revenge scheduled across the US and Canada on March 18, a day ahead of its global release. Many of these premieres will be hosted on premium large format screens, featuring wall-to-wall displays, immersive sound systems such as Dolby Atmos, enhanced projection and luxury seating.
These formats are typically reserved for major Hollywood event films, and early bookings suggest strong demand with several shows already sold out.
The recently released trailer of Dhurandhar The Revenge has also sparked buzz among exhibitors and trade circles, with expectations running high for the film’s international performance.
Dhurandhar The Revenge is written, directed and produced by Aditya Dhar. The film is produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar.
Jio Studios presents a B62 Studios production, an Aditya Dhar film.
The spy-action thriller will release worldwide on March 19, 2026, in five languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.
The film arrives in theatres globally on the occasion of Gudi Padwa and Ugadi, just ahead of Eid, setting the stage for a festive box office run.
