This Actor Vanished After Hit Debut, Now Runs Rs 8,500 Crore Firm
Many stars enter Bollywood, shine briefly, and then disappear. However, one such actor is Girish Kumar, who made a blockbuster debut in 2013 with his first film ' Ramaiya Vastavaiya ', but soon vanished from the industry. The film was directed by Prabhu Deva and featured Shruti Haasan alongside Girish. The music, especially the song ' Jeene Laga Hoon ', became very popular among the audience. The film performed well at the box office and Girish received numerous award nominations for best debut. Everyone thought Girish would have a long career in Bollywood, but his second film ' Loveshuda ', released in 2016, failed to impress both the audience and the box office. Following this, Girish distanced himself from films and never appeared on screen again. Although Girish quit acting, he carved out a new identity in his family business. Girish is the son of Tips Industries owner Kumar S. Taurani and the nephew of Ramesh Taurani. Tips Industries is a major music and film production company, which has delivered numerous hits like ' Jab Pyar Kisi Se Hota Hai ', ' Kya Kehna ', ' Roz ', ' Ishq Vishk ', and ' Race '. According to a Financial Express report, Girish is now the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Tips Industries and plays an essential role in further increasing its market value, which stands at Rs 8,533 crore. His hard work and business acumen have expanded Tips to more than 1,000 wholesalers and 4 lakh retailers. As of June 24, 2025, the market value of Tips was Rs 8,533.4 crore, and Girish's personal wealth is estimated at around Rs 2,164 crore. This amount exceeds the net worth of Ranbir Kapoor (400 crores), Ranveer Singh (245 crores), and even Aamir Khan (1,900 crores). Girish married his childhood friend Krishna Mangwani in 2016, and they now live a happy life in Mumbai with their child. While Girish may have left the glitz of Bollywood, his success at Tips Industries has shown that success can be found not only on screen but also in the business world.

Meet Girish Kumar: Quit acting after two films; now runs a Rs 8,533 crore business and is richer than Aamir Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh
Girish Kumar stepped into Bollywood in 2013 with the romantic film 'Ramaiya Vastavaiya', directed by Prabhu Deva. He starred opposite Shruti Haasan in a movie that was a remake of a popular Telugu film. Though the movie did only average business at the box office, it was loved for its emotional storyline and hit music, especially the popular song 'Jeene Laga Hoon'. Girish's debut earned him nominations for Best Debut, showing promise for his acting career. But after that, he appeared in just one more film, 'Loveshhuda' in 2016, opposite Navneet Kaur Dhillon. The film flopped badly and was not well received by critics either. After this, Girish quietly stepped away from acting. From film sets to family business Girish Kumar didn't leave the film industry altogether. He simply chose to work from behind the scenes. Born into the powerful Taurani family, Girish is the son of producer Kumar S Taurani and nephew of Ramesh S Taurani—both big names in Bollywood and the co-founders of Tips Industries. After stepping away from acting, Girish joined the family-run Tips Industries and began helping manage the business. Today, he is the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of the company, working closely with his father and uncle to grow their music and film empire. According to NSE, the market value of Tips Industries stood at Rs 8,533.40 crore as of Tuesday, 24 June 2025. That's a massive figure for a company that started small. The company had already touched over Rs 10,500 crore in market capitalisation in 2024. As COO, Girish has played a key role in building this success. His work in the business world has clearly paid off, big time. Net worth is higher than top actors Although Girish only acted in two films, his current net worth is higher than some of the biggest names in Bollywood. As reported by The Economic Times and Hindustan Times, his personal wealth is around Rs 2,164 crore. This is much higher famous Bollywood actors, including Ranbir Kapoor (Rs 400 crore), Ranveer Singh (Rs 245 crore), Varun Dhawan (Rs 380 crore), and even superstar Aamir Khan , whose net worth is around Rs 1,900 crore. Talking about his personal life, Girish is married to his childhood sweetheart, Krsna, and they live in Mumbai with their child. 'Zaheer & I Are...'
