Biography
As of 2025, Vashu Bhagnani has an estimated net worth of around ₹20 crore (~$2.57 million), rising from ₹18 crore in 2024, ₹16 crore in 2023, and ₹14 crore in 2022, based on PeopleAi’s estimates :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}. His wealth stems from over 30 years producing and distributing Bollywood films, founding Pooja Entertainment, and running a music label and real estate ventures. Recent box‑office failures—*Bell Bottom* (2021), *Mission Raniganj*, *Ganapath*, and *Bade Miyan Chote Miyan* (2024)—have resulted in about ₹250 crore in debt and the sale of his seven‑storey office to manage liabilities. Financial reports for FY 2025 show his company made ₹16 cr in total sales and net income of ₹0.79 cr, a 71% drop year‑over‑year.
