Meet the richest Bollywood actress, also a global icon, has a daughter, she is.., her net worth is Rs...
This Bollywood actress has Rs 800 crore net worth, still not the richest, she is..., her husband is....
In the glamorous world of Bollywood, many celebrities come and go, but every once in a while, there come some stars who not only captivate the world with their beauty and charm but also become a phenomenon. Today, we are talking about an actress who not only mesmerised Indian fans with her strong performance and unmatched beauty, but she also made waves internationally with her grace and elegance.
Born into a humble South Indian family, this actress went on to become one of the most celebrated and one of wealthiest actresses in India. Besides her acting, she has also represented Indian on a global stage and earned the title of Miss World. Yes, the actress we are talking about is none other than Aishwarya Rai.
Born on November 1, 1973, in Mangalore, Karnataka, Aishwarya Rai began her acting career in the Tamil Film Industry in 1997. Her debut film was Iruvar. Later, she made her Bollywood debut with the film Pyaar Ho Gaya, the same year. However, it was her Tamil film jeans that rose her to fame and became a turning point for her.
With a huge career trajectory of over 28 years, Aishwarya has delivered many blockbuster hits like Guru, Devdas, Dhoom 2, Jodha Akbar, and many more. However, shifting her focus more on her personal life, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan took a break from her profession at the peak of her career, something that rarely actresses dare to do. In 2007, she tied the knot with Abhishek Bachchan and became the bahu of the legendary Bachchan clan. Their wedding was one of the most talked-about events in the country at that time.
In 2011, Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan welcomed their first and only child, Aaradhya Bachchan. Devoting her time to family and motherhood, Aishwarya Rai was away from the limelight for many years until 2015.
In 2015, she made her comeback with Jazbaa, followed by Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, and proved that while she may be away from the limelight, the light in her remains the same, and true stars never fade.
As per the reports, today Aishwarya Rai is India's second richest actress with a net worth of RS. 800 crores, followed by Juhi Chawla. Her wealth is an amalgamation of her work over the years, global influencer, investments, brand endorsements, and more.
From the little innocent girl to the most celebrated and wealthiest actress in Bollywood, Aishwarya Rai is not an actress, she is an era.

Creating A Safe Space For Indie Dogs: Ramesh Narayan Launches Special Short Film And Book
Last Updated: The adman said he decided he should take baby steps at least and start the movement to establish the indie as a brand For advertising mogul Ramesh Narayan, indie dogs have always been more than just pets; they are family. Currently, he is busy with the launch of his short film and a lavish coffee table book titled Missy's Musings. Speaking about the inspiration behind his mission to create a safe environment for indie dogs, he says, 'We have had indies at home for some time now. Missy is our third indie, and in fact, one of them, Peppy, was brought home from Chennai. She was found on the roads there. We have experienced the real love and joy of having an Indian dog. [However,] if you happen to go out on a walk, you will see that 10 out of 10 dogs on a leash are these breed dogs. So, as an advertising person, I thought that the only reason why anyone would not have an indie is that it is not a brand. For example, Vodafone made the pug into a brand. Unfortunately for the pug, the advertising still worked. So, I thought that we should take baby steps at least and start the movement to establish the indie as a brand. The time is right. Everything Indian now is good. When we start building the brand, I hope it'll have a lot more value than it has now." So, when did his love for dogs begin? Reflecting on this, he says, 'Many years ago, when our son was about 12, he's now 30, so about 18 years ago, he came to me and said, 'I want a dog, Daddy'. And he was after me, pestering. I asked him, 'What kind of a dog would you like, Sunny?' And he said, 'I would like a pug.' I asked him, 'Do you want a dog or you want a brand?' And he said, 'What does that mean? I don't understand.' So I said, 'Go and ask your mom and come back the next day'. He came back the next day and said, 'Dad, I want a dog.' And at that time, Welfare for Stray Dogs was holding an adoption drive. So we went, and the first dog, who was an indie, Sugar, came home. And then after you experience it once, you are sold on it." According to Narayan, indie dogs are just as good as other breeds. 'It is hardy, low maintenance, and as loving and caring as any other dog. And it's free! What more do you want?" he says. Talking about his short film and book, he explains, 'The entire film has been made as a labour of love. I happened to mention it to Nabil Abbas, who's a well-known entertainment industry personality. He said, 'I am there for you.' Pooja Bhatt said, 'I would love to act in this film.' She also lent her voice to it. And so I have made this now in the name of the Rotary Club of Bombay." He further says, 'During Covid, I had this idea: can a dog write? And I said, 'I'll try it.' And amazingly, I found a whole lot of people were playing along with it. And slowly, I found that Missy had a larger following than I had. However, if the idea is to create a brand, it has to be properly presented in a coffee table book and richly illustrated."

Siddharth Nigam's mother reveals he was replaced by Ajay Devgn's nephew Aaman Devgan in Azaad with Rasha Thadani: 'Both of them were star kids...'
Siddharth Nigam, an outsider in Bollywood, faced disappointment when he was replaced in the film *Azaad* by star kids Aaman Devgan and Rasha Thadani. Despite initial consideration and script narration, Nigam waited two years only to discover the film proceeded with the newcomers. While acknowledging the industry's realities, Nigam focused on moving forward after the emotional setback. In an industry where star power often outweighs merit, the struggles of outsiders continue to echo. Actor Siddharth Nigam's journey is the latest reminder. His mother has now revealed that Siddharth was originally in line to debut in Azaad—until he was replaced by star kids Aaman Devgan and Rasha Thadani . In conversation with Instant Bollywood, Siddharth's mother opened up about the challenges of being an outsider in the film industry, highlighting a personal experience with Azaad. She shared that Siddharth was initially considered for the film and even had the script narrated to him. However, after waiting for nearly two years, they discovered through a poster that the movie had been made—with Ajay Devgn 's nephew Aaman Devgan and Raveena Tandon's daughter Rasha Thadani in the lead. She admitted it was a tough moment, especially as a mother, and felt the final casting decision may have been influenced by the star lineage of the newcomers. Siddharth also reflected on the situation, acknowledging the realities of the industry. Without placing blame, he shared that it's part of the business, and those involved likely had their own reasons for the decision. For him, it was more about the emotional toll—waiting with hope for a year, only to find out through the teaser that someone else had been cast. In the end, he said, it became a moment of quiet acceptance and simply moving on. The period action drama, directed by Abhishek Kapoor and produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Pragya Kapoor, marked the debut of Aaman Devgan and Rasha Thadani, starring alongside Ajay Devgn and Diana Penty. Despite the high-profile cast and production, the film opened to mixed-to-negative reviews and failed to make a mark at the box office, earning just Rs 8 crore worldwide.
