Bollywood's richest star kid? From Rs 100 crore sea-facing mansion to Rs 3,100 crore empire, this celeb's net worth will leave you stunned
Hrithik Roshan is Bollywood's wealthiest star kid, boasting a Rs 3,100 crore fortune. His sportswear brand, HRX, is valued at Rs 7,300 crore. Roshan earns significantly from films like Fighter and War 2. He owns luxury properties in Juhu and Lonavala. War 2 has been released in cinemas. Roshan's success extends beyond acting into business and real estate.
In Bollywood, being a star kid might open doors, but sustaining superstardom, and amassing unimaginable wealth, demands relentless drive, versatility, and business acumen. Hrithik Roshan, who captured the nation's heart with his sensational debut in Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai, has gone far beyond being just another celebrity offspring. At 50, the War 2 star stands tall with an estimated fortune of Rs 3,100 crore, making him the richest star kid in the industry.And according to GQ India, the crown jewel in Hrithik's financial empire isn't just his blockbuster films, it's his sportswear and lifestyle brand, HRX, which has redefined the concept of celebrity-led businesses in India.
Launched in 2013, HRX has grown into a powerhouse, reportedly valued at around Rs 7,300 crore. More than just a brand, HRX has built a loyal community by championing fitness, authenticity, and aspirational living. This success story has transformed Hrithik from a film star into a business mogul, and set a precedent for how Indian celebrities can expand their influence beyond the silver screen.While HRX dominates his business portfolio, Hrithik's acting career continues to be a major revenue stream. His fee per film commands attention: Rs 85 crore for Fighter and a projected Rs 48– Rs 80 crore for War 2, in which he stars alongside Jr NTR and Kiara Advani.He's also tipped to make his directorial debut with Krrish 4, which is already generating industry buzz. Off-screen, Hrithik's influence extends to high-profile endorsement deals, capitalising on his 47 million-strong Instagram following to secure partnerships with leading brands.
Hrithik's wealth isn't just liquid, it's also built on astute real estate investments. His sea-facing Juhu residence, worth approximately Rs 100 crore, offers panoramic views of Mumbai's coastline, while his Rs 33 crore farmhouse in Lonavala serves as a peaceful weekend escape. These properties not only reflect his taste for luxury but also act as appreciating assets in India's booming property market.Despite his entrepreneurial triumphs, Hrithik remains, at heart, a leading man. Fresh from Fighter, his much-anticipated War 2 has hit cinemas to strong reviews, cementing his position as one of Bollywood's most bankable stars. Inputs from TOI

Not Shah Rukh Khan or Salman Khan, this actor wins best actor, Aamir Khan honoured, Bollywood lights up Melbourne Film Festival
The 16th edition of the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM) wasn't just a gathering; it was a celebration of stories, memories, and cinema's evolving spirit. The spotlight fell on Neeraj Ghaywan's Homebound, a film already buzzing in conversations, and now crowned with the festival's biggest honours, Best Film and Best Director. Starring Ishaan Khatter, Vishal Jethwa, and Janhvi Kapoor, Homebound has been seen as one of 2025's most striking works. Its double victory only deepened its mark on the year's cinematic map. Why did Aamir Khan's award feel like a journey? The festival's highest honour, 'Excellence in Cinema', went to Aamir Khan. For decades, he has been more than just a star — a storyteller who shaped Indian cinema's global voice. Accepting the award, Aamir chose not to make it about himself. Instead, he turned the spotlight on those who stood beside him through the years: 'Film-making is a collaborative art, and this award wouldn't be possible without my writers, directors, co-actors, and the audience who gave me the chance to tell stories and be a part of so many.' It wasn't just a speech, but a reminder of how cinema remains collective, not individual. How did Abhishek Bachchan make it personal? Among acting honours, Abhishek Bachchan's Best Actor (Male) win for I Want To Talk felt deeply personal. Looking back at his own journey with IFFM, he called it a circle completed: 'For me, life has come full circle. I was here in 2022, receiving the Excellence in Cinema award. To now stand on the same stage and hold the Best Actor trophy for a film so close to my heart is overwhelming.' For Best Actress, Geeta Kailasam's moving performance in Angammal was celebrated, while Gugun Kigpen received a Special Mention for his power-packed act in Boong. Who else stood tall? The evening didn't miss the OTT world either. Black Warrant was named Best Series, with Jaideep Ahlawat (Paatal Lok 2) and Nimisha Sajayan (Dabba Cartel) bagging top acting honours. Awards celebrating leadership, diversity, equality, and disruption reminded the audience that cinema today is not bound by screens alone, but by ideas and voices.

IDSFFK to honour documentary filmmaker Rakesh Sharma with Lifetime Achievement Award
Acclaimed documentary filmmaker Rakesh Sharma has been chosen for the Lifetime Achievement Award of the 17th International Documentary and Short Film Festival of Kerala (IDSFFK) organised by the Kerala State Chalachitra Academy. The recognition is in honour of his fearless filmmaking, steadfast commitment to social justice, and transformative impact of his works on Indian documentary cinema. The award comprising ₹2 lakh, a certificate, and a statuette will be presented during the festival which will be held from August 22 to 27 at the Kairali Theatre complex in Thiruvananthapuram. A retrospective of his films will be screened at the festival. He is best known for his ground-breaking 2004 documentary Final Solution on the 2002 Gujarat pogrom. Through an in-depth analysis of the carnage and documenting the travails of the victims, he explored the rise and consolidation of hard-line Hindutva politics and laid bare on film the clinical precision with which the violence was carried out. The documentary has been screened at over 120 international film festivals and remains a seminal work among Indian documentaries. Despite an initial ban by the Indian Censor Board, the film was later cleared without cuts following public outcry. Final Solution won the National Film Award in 2006. Beginning his career as Shyam Benegal's assistant with Bharat Ek Khoj, Sharma worked on several projects for Doordarshan, BBC and Channel4, UK. He later played a pivotal role in the early years of Indian satellite television, contributing to the launch of prominent channels including Channel [V], Star Plus India, and Vijay TV. He returned to independent filmmaking with the Robert Flaherty Prize winning 2002 documentary Aftershocks: The Rough Guide to Democracy, exploring the grassroots resistance in post-earthquake Gujarat. Despite facing institutional pushback, his work reached audiences through alternate platforms. Final Solution premiered in India at the independent protest festival 'Vikalp' and made history at the Berlin International Film Festival, becoming the first documentary to win the Best Debut Feature award. His work has been extensively screened in over a 100 cities and dozens of universities worldwide, and shown on TV channels like BBC, NHK, DR2, YLE etc. For over two decades, Rakesh has focussed his work on the politics of hate and filmed extensively in Gujarat, Maharashtra and elsewhere. After long years of autoimmune-related enforced medical sabbaticals, Rakesh has now resumed postproduction and is nearing the completion of his semi-finished, long-delayed films, including Final Solution Revisited, the much-awaited follow-up to Final Solution. The IDSFFK Lifetime Achievement Award was previously bestowed upon Anand Patwardhan (2018), Madhusree Dutta (2019), Ranjan Palit (2021), Reena Mohan (2022), Deepa Dhanraj (2023), and Naresh Bedi & Rajesh Bedi (2024).
