Actor Saif Ali Khan turns 55 today, marking more than 25 years in Bollywood with a career defined by versatility, legacy, and enduring charm.
Known as much for his royal lineage as for his cinematic craft, Saif continues to balance heritage and hard-earned success.
A Nawab by Heritage and Merit
In 2011, following the death of his father, legendary cricketer Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, Saif inherited the title of the 10th Nawab of Pataudi.
With a royal legacy from his father’s side and Bollywood royalty through his mother, actress Sharmila Tagore, his life has always carried an air of grandeur.
Yet, Saif has built his reputation as more than just a royal heir - his acting choices have proven his range, from intense dramas to romantic comedies and action thrillers.
Wealth and Net Worth
According to reports, Saif Ali Khan’s net worth is estimated at ₹1,200 crore. His income stems from films, brand endorsements, personal investments, and ancestral wealth.
He charges between ₹10-15 crore per film and earns around ₹1-5 crore per endorsement.
Saif also co-owns two production companies - Illuminati Films and Black Knight Films. His most prized asset remains the Pataudi Palace in Haryana, valued at nearly ₹800 crore.
His wife, actress Kareena Kapoor Khan, contributes significantly to the family fortune with a net worth of around ₹485 crore.
Recent and Upcoming Work
Recently, Saif was seen in the Netflix thriller Jewel Thief – The Heist Begins, playing a charismatic jewel thief opposite Nikita Dutta and Jaideep Ahlawat.
Up next, he will share screen space with Akshay Kumar in Priyadarshan’s Haiwaan, further cementing his place as one of Bollywood’s most bankable stars even at 55.
