Manoj Kumar Net Worth

Manoj Kumar is an Indian actor and director in the Bollywood film industry who has a net worth of $20 million. He is known for his films with patriotic themes and was aptly nicknamed “Bhaarat Kumar”.

Kumar’s image as the patriotic hero started with the 1965 film Shaheed, based on the life of Bhagat Singh, the most influential Indian revolutionary. After the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965, Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri asked Kumar to create a film based on the popular slogan Jai Jawan Jai Kissan (hail the soldier, hail the farmer).

The mid-’70s saw Kumar star in three hit films: Roti Kapda Aur Makaan (1974), which won him his second Filmfare Award for Best Director, Sanyasi (1975) and Dus Numbri (1976). His trademark hand-covering-the-face was very popular and continues to be the butt of jokes of stand-up comedians.
