While Ranbir Kapoor’s portrayal of Lord Ram in the much-anticipated Ramayana continues to generate headlines, his financial moves off-screen are equally noteworthy and far more diversified than most of his peers. Himanshu Singhal, a chief marketing and growth officer and an observer of celebrity business trends did a quick analysis on Ranbir’s financial portfolio.

Ranbir Kapoor’s Financial portfolio.

With a reported net worth of ₹345 crore, Kapoor commands around ₹50 crore per film, placing him firmly among the industry’s top earners. But as this writer has found, that’s just one part of his growing business empire.

According to publicly available figures, Kapoor earns an estimated ₹6 crore annually from brand endorsements. His roster of partnerships reads like a blueprint for strategic market penetration: Oreo, Lays/Kurkure, Lenovo, Coca-Cola, Asian Paints, Panasonic, Renault, and Tasva (a collaboration between Aditya Birla Fashion and designer Tarun Tahiliani).

These alliances span categories from FMCG to electronics, automotive, and fashion, allowing Kapoor to remain visible in both premium and mass-market segments.

What truly sets Kapoor apart, however, is his growing appetite for entrepreneurship. He has invested in several innovative ventures, including Saavn (the audio streaming service now part of Reliance Jio), DroneAcharya Aerial Innovations (a listed player in drone technology), and Beco, a sustainable consumer goods startup.

These bets on digital media, emerging tech, and eco-friendly products show a clear alignment with India’s forward-looking, sustainability-conscious consumer base.

Kapoor’s business interests also extend into sports. He owns stakes in Mumbai City FC, part of the Indian Super League, and Arka Dymo Sports, reinforcing his faith in India’s booming sports and entertainment sectors.

On the luxury side, Kapoor has accumulated an enviable list of properties and vehicles. His properties have a Mumbai domicile in prime Pali Hill and an apartment in Trump Towers Pune. His vehicles range from a Bentley Continental GT V8, Jaguar Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz AMG SL 55 4MATIC, to the evergreen Mercedes-AMG G63, proof of his passion for high-end machinery.

In many ways, Kapoor is the new breed of Indian star: an individual who comes to understand that triumph can open doors into boardrooms as easily as it can into movie sets. From celebrity endorsements to equity worth millions, he is forging a future where his financial standing is as long-lasting as his cinematic one.

For Indian stars watching his journey, the message is clear, diversifying beyond films isn’t just wise, it’s essential in today’s economy.
