Shah Rukh Khan Earns Almost 200 Crore From 'Pathaan' As A Result Of 60% Profit Sharing

Shah Rukh Khan came back to the big screen with a bang in Siddharth Anand's 'Pathaan', the first movie of the year 2023. The movie was talked about a lot before it came out, and on its first day, it broke every record for how much money it made. Deepika Padukone and John Abraham were both important parts of the movie. Dimple Kapadia, Ashutosh Rana, and Ekta Kaul were also important. Now, there are rumours that SRK has taken a 60% share of the profits. Yes, you heard that right!

Since the movie was first released, fans had high hopes for it because of its star actors, its grandeur, and its super-popular but controversial music album. But over time, it has become the Bollywood movie with the most money made so far in 2023. When Pathaan started at 57 crore at the domestic box office, lines were long.

Now, according to the latest news, Shah Rukh Khan didn't charge the film's creators a set fee up front. Instead, he agreed to split the profits with them. A report says, “owing to the humongous collection at the domestic and international box office, Shah Rukh Khan opted for a 60% profit sharing which means he took home a whopping remuneration of around Rs 200 crore.” Whoa!

For those who don't know, Pathaan has made a total of Rs 543.22 crore nett in all languages, which means it has made more than Rs 1000 crore worldwide.
