On Thursday, the 2024 edition of the Hurun India Rich List was made public. While the annual list consists of the names of renowned and wealthy individuals in the country, including Ambani and Adani, Bollywood celebrities were also not left behind. However, what caught everyone’s attention was the name of the richest woman in the entertainment industry. What was more interesting was how this particular actress has not delivered any box office hits in recent times, yet her name flashed on the list as one of the richest actresses in India.

Who is India’s Richest Actress?

A new list shows that the number of very rich Indians has increased. There are now 1,539 people in India who have more than Rs. 1,000 crores. This is 220 more people than last year. One of the new additions to the list is Shah Rukh Khan, a famous actor. He is worth about Rs. 7,300 crores, making him the richest person in India in the entertainment business.

However, Juhi Chawla, Shah Rukh Khan’s friend and former co-star, is also very wealthy. She is worth about Rs. 4,600 crores, making her the richest actress in India and one of the wealthiest women in the world.

How Did She Become India’s Richest Actress?

Back in the ’90s, Juhi Chawla proved her mettle in movies. She was one of the top-performing actresses on screen. Over her three-decade career, Juhi has delivered several superhit films, including Yes Boss, Jhankaar Beats, Salaam-E-Ishq, and others.

However, in the 2000s, Juhi transitioned from acting to production and supporting roles. She is also Shah Rukh Khan’s partner in film production, first with Dreams Unlimited and now with Red Chillies Entertainment.

One of the biggest reasons Juhi has become one of the richest actresses is her investment in Red Chillies Entertainment and her co-ownership of the Knight Riders cricket franchise.

Juhi Chawla is now wealthier than other famous Indian actresses like Aishwarya Rai, Priyanka Chopra, Alia Bhatt, Deepika Padukone, and Katrina Kaif. None of these actresses have made it to the list of the country’s very rich individuals.
