Hrithik Roshan: 7 Films in 10 Years and Now India’s 3rd Richest Actor

How Does Hrithik Roshan Earn Money?

The Hurun India Rich List 2024 has been released, and it often fascinates people to find out which actors hold the most wealth and who stands at the top in terms of riches. According to the latest list, Shah Rukh Khan takes the lead. The previous year was particularly remarkable for him, with his films grossing ₹1000 crore each at the box office. Apart from his films, Shah Rukh earns a substantial income through endorsements, popular brands, his IPL team, and his production company. Surprising many, Hrithik Roshan ranks third among the richest actors in India.

After seeing Hrithik’s name at third place, fans are left wondering how he manages to accumulate such wealth. He does not release films every year, and even when he does, they often do not hit blockbuster figures. So how has he surpassed Salman Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar, and Aamir Khan in wealth? According to the Hurun India Rich List 2024, Hrithik Roshan’s net worth is approximately ₹2000 crores, making him the second wealthiest actor among male actors after Shah Rukh Khan.

Only 7 Films in 10 Years

Hrithik Roshan has appeared in just seven films over the past decade. His most recent project was “Fighter,” released at the beginning of the year, and he also has YRF’s “War 2” lined up. However, the income from films alone cannot account for this immense wealth. Reports suggest that Hrithik charges between ₹70 to ₹100 crore per film, though there is no fixed amount—his fees can vary. A significant portion of his income comes from his athletic wear brand, HRX, which has gained immense popularity. Additionally, his earnings from social media platforms also contribute to his overall wealth.

On his X account, Hrithik boasts 32.3 million followers, while his Instagram handle is followed by 47.7 million people. For promotions and sponsored posts, he charges a substantial fee. In fact, according to reports, Hrithik earns approximately ₹27 lakh daily—primarily from his HRX brand. Annually, his total income averages around ₹260 crore.

Moreover, Hrithik owns two luxury apartments valued at around ₹100 crore. Reports indicate that he also benefits significantly from brand endorsements, charging ₹10 to ₹12 crore per endorsement. Alongside Hrithik and Shah Rukh Khan, other notable names on the Hurun India Rich List 2024 include Juhi Chawla, Amitabh Bachchan, and Karan Johar.
