Insider reports claim that film producer, Bhushan Kumar alone is responsible for up to 80% of the family's Rs 10,000 crore empire. The remaining portion of the wealth goes to Bhushan’s uncle and co-owner of T-Series, Krishan Kumar. The Kumar sisters, Tulsi Kumar and Khushali Kumar, have respective net worths of Rs. 250 crore and Rs. 100 crore.

The humble beginnings of T-Series to become one of India’s most powerful entertainment empires

There’s no doubt when we say that the T-Series is one of the biggest and most powerful entertainment empires in India at present. However, behind this success is an inspiring tale of humble beginnings, vision and perseverance.

Bhushan and Gulshan Kumar

The founder of T-Series, Gulshan Kumar, had humble beginnings as a mere fruit vendor who sold fruit juices on the streets of Delhi. His life took a turn when he worked on his vision and acquired a small shop in 1983 that sold music cassettes. From thereon, it was a journey uphill: It was not long before Gulshan launched his very own record label, Super Cassettes, which was later rebranded as T-Series. This determination ultimately laid the foundation for a multimedia empire.

Gulshan’s son, Bhushan Kumar took over the company after his father’s untimely death. It was Bhushan who led T-Series to become the largest music and film production company in India. Rather than limiting the services to music, Bhushan took it up a notch and expanded the brand’s reach to movie production, music streaming, and even education, with the Gulshan Kumar Film & Television Institute. T-Series now produces big-budget Bollywood films and blockbuster soundtracks, and has partnerships that span the globe. Bhushan with family

How T-Series beat Bollywood’s legendary families

T-Series surpasses the wealth of other influential Bollywood dynasties, including Aditya Chopra’s family (estimated at Rs. 8,000 crore) and Shah Rukh Khan’s (around Rs. 7,500 crore). Bhushan almost single-handedly took his family business to take over the industry and even beat Yash Raj Films with its constant film production and sprawling digital influence.
