Citing Shah Rukh’s wealth growth, the list mentioned: “Bollywood’s Badshah, Shah Rukh Khan (59), joins the billionaire club for the first time with a wealth of INR 12,490 Crore.” Shah Rukh is now richer than several international celebrities, including Taylor Swift ($1.3 billion), Arnold Schwarzenegger ($1.2 billion), Jerry Seinfeld ($1.2 billion), and Selena Gomez ($720 million), to name a few.
Shah Rukh Khan has been the richest actor in India for several years now. But the new list mentions that the gap between him and the next richest is widening.
