In the realm of Tamil cinema, figures like Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, Ajith Kumar, and Suriya are frequently regarded as the most prominent. Yet, the wealthiest actor in Kollywood isn’t among them. Instead, someone has quietly built a vast fortune through box office hits and various business endeavors. Are you intrigued to find out who it is? Keep reading.
In 2025, I came across a Forbes list showcasing the wealthiest Indian actors. Notably, Thalapathy Vijay was ranked at the top, making him not only the richest Tamil actor but also the second-highest earning actor in India. With an estimated net worth of approximately Rs 474 crore, his financial success is truly impressive.
Vijay tops the chart, with other prominent figures trailing behind. Notably, Rajinikanth, a well-known actor in South India with an estimated net worth of 4300 million rupees, is one such figure. His immense popularity guarantees substantial earnings at the box office, and it’s said that he demanded 1250 million rupees for his movie Vettaiyan.
Conversely, it’s said that Suriya boasts a net worth of approximately Rs 350 crores, as per News18. He owns lavish properties in Chennai and Mumbai, along with expensive cars. With his expanding production businesses, there’s an expectation that his wealth will escalate even more.
I proudly stand as a dedicated follower, sharing the impressive fortune of Ajith Kumar, estimated at Rs 196 crore. His films, such as Thunivu and Vidaamuyarchi, have proven to be commercial triumphs, consistently positioning him among the top-earning Tamil actors.
Even though Kamal Haasan is a highly esteemed figure in the film industry, he didn’t manage to take the top spot on the list. His current net worth amounts to approximately Rs 150 crore. Although he didn’t release any films in 2023, fans are excitedly looking forward to his upcoming collaboration with Mani Ratnam, titled Thug Life.
Under Vijay’s guidance, there’s great excitement surrounding his next movie, Jana Nayagan. This project signifies a significant shift as he plans to fully immerse himself in politics following its premiere.
