A recent report by a wealth management startup estimated Bhat’s net worth at Rs 665 crore, making him one of India’s wealthiest content creators.
The report ranks Bhat significantly ahead of other creators, such as Bhuvan Bam, valued at Rs 122 crore, and Carry Minati, valued at Rs 50 crore.
However, the comedian and creative mind behind the advertising agency Moonshot refutes the estimate, stating that it is far from accurate.
Bhat, a founding member and former CEO of the widely acclaimed comedy group AIB, rejected reports of his Rs 665 crore net worth.
Responding to the report on X, he stated that the number is significantly inaccurate. “I can assure you this number is wildly off—at least for me,” wrote Bhat in response to a post listing the net worth of a few popular content creators.
In a now-deleted post, the stand-up comic implied that it’s implausible to amass Rs 665 crore simply by posting memes on social media.
