While other Bollywood families are known for their wealth, the Kumars stand unmatched, with a net worth of approximately Rs 10,000 crore. The 2024 Hurun India Rich List confirmed that Bhushan Kumar’s family has become Bollywood's wealthiest.
Other Families on the List
Although several Bollywood families made it onto this list, Bhushan Kumar’s T-Series family leads with a combined wealth reportedly around Rs 10,000 crore (over $1.2 billion). This achievement positions them as Bollywood’s wealthiest, surpassing the previously leading Kapoor and Chopra families. For years, the Chopra family, responsible for Yash Raj Films and BR Films, held the top spot, with an estimated net worth of Rs 8,000 crore, primarily attributed to Aditya Chopra’s earnings. Shah Rukh Khan’s family, valued around Rs 7,500 crore, ranks close due to the actor’s substantial personal wealth.

The family’s journey began with Bhushan’s father, Gulshan Kumar. Before venturing into entertainment, Gulshan Kumar sold fruit juices on the streets of Delhi. His fortune changed after he took over his father’s cassette shop, eventually leading him to establish a music record label. Today, this label has evolved into a leading entertainment company in India.
