Bollywood Actor-Entrepreneur Abhay Deol Rs 400 Crore Net Worth Richer Than Bobby
Last Updated: Bobby Deol is undoubtedly a big star but Abhay Deol's net worth is five times more than him, just like Vivek Oberoi, who also turned into a businessman. When you think of the Deol family, the spotlight usually falls on Sunny Deol's action-packed career or Bobby Deol's recent comeback. But here is a twist you did not see coming: there is one Deol who is quietly richer than both of them. Meet Abhay Deol, the cousin who built a fortune worth a jaw-dropping Rs 400 crore. Abhay Deol has always stood apart from the Bollywood crowd. He is not the one to chase headlines or flaunt his lifestyle. Neither is he a regular Bollywood poster boy nor an activist artist-kind. Instead, he has carved his own path, selective with work and, as visible, incredibly smart when it comes to finances. More Than Just An Actor Abhay Deol is not your typical star. He keeps a low profile, speaks less and lets his work do the talking. According to MensXP, Abhay Deol's net worth stands at around Rs 400 crore, which is five times more than that of his cousin Bobby Deol. So, where's all this money coming from? Well, Abhay charges Rs 3 crore per film and makes nearly Rs 10 crore annually. Abhay Deol's Business Brain But the real game-changer? It is his business empire that he has quietly built over the years. Abhay co-owns a restaurant chain called The Fatty Cow, has stakes in hospitality projects and runs his own production house, Forbidden Films, under which he has produced projects like One By Two (2014) and What Are The Odds (2020). This adds another steady stream of income. The Lavish Possessions What further adds to the possession is a Rs 27 crore property in Mumbai but his heart seemingly belongs to his peaceful Goan home. Even his car collection is all stylish but he chooses not to flaunt them. It includes a Mitsubishi Pajero SFX, a Volkswagen Tiguan AllSpace and a BMW X6. All reliable, all classy, but never screaming for attention. Where Bobby Deol Stands As for Abhay Deol's cousin Bobby Deol, the actor's net worth is estimated at Rs 66.7 crore, according to Lifestyle Asia. He earns Rs 4–6 crore per film and reportedly took home Rs 5 crore for his role in Animal. Bobby also enjoys a significant amount of money from brand deals, charging around Rs 1 crore for each endorsement. While this all is impressive, Abhay is clearly in a league of his own. view comments First Published: August 08, 2025, 11:36 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

10 Legendary Cars You Can't Drive In Capital, Courtesy Delhi Fuel Ban
With pollution levels remaining a serious concern, the Delhi government has tightened its stance on older vehicles. A new guideline bans 15-year-old petrol vehicles and 10-year-old diesel vehicles from plying on city roads. This Delhi car ban has massive implications for enthusiasts and used car buyers. If you're living in Delhi-NCR, several well-loved vehicles are now off-limits - not just to drive, but even to purchase. From iconic sedans to rugged SUVs, here's a list of 10 iconic vehicles that have, unfortunately, become museum pieces in the capital. 1. Gen 1 Toyota Fortuner Launched in 2009, the first-generation Toyota Fortuner quickly gained a cult following for its butch looks, off-road capability, and reliability. The 3.0-litre diesel engine was the powerhouse many buyers craved. However, since it's been over a decade since its debut, most early units fall under the 10-year diesel ban and are no longer road legal in Delhi. 2. Mitsubishi Pajero SFX The Pajero SFX was once the poster SUV of rugged charm and long-distance touring. Its go-anywhere capability, tall stance, and legendary rally-bred DNA earned it fans across the country. Sadly, Mitsubishi exited the Indian market, and the Pajero SFX was discontinued around 2012-13, making it fall well within the diesel ban zone today. So, planning to drive it on Delhi roads will be fatal for the car. 3. Honda Accord V6 The V6-powered Honda Accord wasn't just a luxury sedan - it was a sleeper performance car in disguise. With silky-smooth power delivery and a surprisingly quick 3.0-litre petrol engine, it won hearts. But since the model was phased out in India before 2013, it now crosses the 15-year petrol limit, making it unusable in Delhi, amidst this fuel ban. 4. Second-Gen Skoda Superb (PQ46) Known for its limousine-like rear seat comfort and powerful engine options, the second-gen Superb was a big hit among executives and enthusiasts alike. Launched in 2009 and replaced by a newer-gen version in 2016, earlier diesel variants now fall under Delhi's fuel-age radar. 5. Skoda Laura A sporty sibling to the Octavia, the Skoda Laura offered engaging dynamics, powerful engines, and a European driving experience. It was particularly loved in its 1.8 TSI and 2.0 TDI avatars. The model was phased out in 2013, making it a non-starter under the current fuel-age norms. As a matter of fact, this is by far the most-tuned car in the Indian car scene, with certain examples belting out close to 500 horsepower. 6. Volkswagen Polo Cross The Cross Polo was a rugged-looking version of the standard hatchback, aimed at urban buyers who wanted SUV styling in a compact form. With cladding, roof rails, and raised stance, it was quirky but didn't last long. It was sold in limited numbers and discontinued around 2016, meaning diesel versions are nearing the ban mark. 7. Ford Fiesta The Fiesta was a true driver's car. Known for its steering feel and balance, the diesel variant especially built a loyal following. With Ford now having exited India and the car discontinued in 2014, it now falls within the diesel ban bracket. 8. Maruti SX4 Maruti's attempt at a premium sedan, the SX4, offered high ground clearance, decent performance, and a "men are back" marketing campaign that stuck. It had petrol and diesel options, both of which are now aged out, as the model was discontinued in 2014. Making this capable Maruti Suzuki a defunct set of wheels for those living in Delhi. 9. Tata Safari Dicor Before the Harrier-based Safari, there was the iconic Dicor - a proper ladder-frame, rear-wheel-drive SUV loved for its commanding road presence and rugged appeal. It went off the shelves around 2014, making its diesel heart illegal on Delhi roads now. 10. Hyundai Santa Fe The Santa Fe brought a premium feel and AWD confidence to Hyundai's India lineup. It wasn't a big seller, but those who bought it swore by its comfort and torque-rich engine. Discontinued in 2017, most of the early diesel models now sit on the edge, or just beyond the 10-year mark. A Sad Move For Enthusiasts These cars were more than just metal. They were loved for their character. But under Delhi's strict fuel-age laws, they are now relics. If you spot one in the classifieds, admire it, but think twice before buying it in NCR.
