Meet India's richest actress, last hit was over 10 years ago, still has net worth of Rs 4600 crore, her name is Juhi Chawla
The world of Bollywood cinema has witnessed several actors and actresses making their debut. While many of them shine, others fade away quickly. However, have you ever heard that despite giving a hit almost a decade earlier, an actress remains at the top of the list as India's richest actress? If not, then keep scrolling to know about this star. Who Is India's Richest Actress? In 2024, a fresh edition of the Hurun India Rich List was made public, which featured the names of renowned and wealthy individuals in India. From Ambani to Adani, the list had various names. When it came to India's richest actress, the list featured a name no one would have ever thought of. Many might think it's Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone, or Alia Bhatt. However, to everyone's surprise, the reports indicate that India's richest actress is Juhi Chawla. What Is Juhi Chawla's Net Worth? As per the list, Juhi Chawla's net worth is Rs. 4,600 crores, making her the richest actress in India and one of the wealthiest women in the world. How Did Juhi Chawla Become India's Richest Actress? During the 90s era, Juhi Chawla proved her mettle in Bollywood. Her performances were loved by the audience. Over her three-decade career, Juhi gave several superhit films, including Yes Boss, Jhankaar Beats, Salaam-E-Ishq, and others. In the 2000s, Juhi shifted her focus from acting to production and supporting roles. She also partnered with Shah Rukh Khan in film production, first through Dreams Unlimited and later with Red Chillies Entertainment. A major reason behind Juhi becoming India's richest actress is her investment in Red Chillies Entertainment and her co-ownership of the Knight Riders cricket franchise. With such a massive net worth, Juhi has left behind actresses like Aishwarya Rai, Priyanka Chopra, Alia Bhatt, Deepika Padukone, and Katrina Kaif.
