Juhi Chawla Crowned India’s Richest Actress with ₹4600 Crore Net Worth

OCTOBER 17, 2024- In a surprising turn of events, Bollywood’s 90s star Juhi Chawla has been named India’s richest actress, surpassing top contemporary stars like Alia Bhatt, Deepika Padukone, and Priyanka Chopra. Despite not delivering a box office hit in over a decade, Juhi has amassed a staggering net worth of ₹4600 crore (approximately $580 million), according to the Hurun Rich List of 2024. This wealth places her among the top 10 richest actresses in the world.

Juhi’s rise to this incredible fortune is largely due to her Business ventures, particularly her partnership with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan in the Red Chillies Group. As a co-owner of the IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders and with significant real estate investments alongside her husband, Businessman Jay Mehta, Juhi has solidified her position as a financial powerhouse.

With a wealth far exceeding other Bollywood divas, Juhi stands at the pinnacle of success, despite not being a current fixture on the silver screen. Second on the list is Aishwarya Rai Bachchan with a net worth of ₹850 crore, followed by Priyanka Chopra at ₹650 crore, and current leading ladies Alia Bhatt and Deepika Padukone rounding out the top five.

Juhi Chawla’s story is one of smart investments and strategic partnerships, proving that Bollywood stars can thrive beyond their cinematic careers.
