Juhi Chawla has become India’s wealthiest actress, surpassing prominent stars like Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone, and Alia Bhatt, according to the Hurun Rich List 2024.
The 90s Bollywood icon now boasts a staggering net worth of INR 46 billion (USD 580 million), placing her among the top ten richest actresses globally. Despite not having a major box office hit in recent years, Juhi’s financial success stems from her strategic business ventures.
She co-owns the IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders with her longtime friend and business partner Shah Rukh Khan, and her production company, Red Chillies Entertainment, has played a significant role in her wealth accumulation.
Juhi’s net worth far exceeds her contemporaries, with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan trailing at INR 8.5 billion, Priyanka Chopra at INR 6.5 billion, followed by Alia Bhatt and Deepika Padukone in fourth and fifth places.
Her savvy investments in real estate and businesses, along with her husband Jay Mehta’s family fortune, have solidified her status as a financial powerhouse in Bollywood.
