The actress we are talking about is the daughter of an IAS officer who made her film debut in the 80s and quickly rose to fame with her charming personality. She has worked with multiple stars, including Ajay Devgn, Aamir Khan, Sunny Deol, Rishi Kapoor, and others.
The actress we are talking about is none other than Juhi Chawla, who started her career as a model. She was one of the top models of her time and won the Miss India beauty pageant title in 1984.

Juhi made her acting debut with the film Sultanat in 1986. The film failed at the box office. However, later, she gained popularity with the film Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak alongside Aamir Khan. It was released in 1988.
Audiences loved the cult classic film and adored the on-screen pair of Juhi and Aamir. After this, the duo appeared in numerous Bollywood films, including Ishq, Hum Hain Rahi Pyaar Ke, Aatank Hi Aatank, Daulat Ki Jung, and Tum Mere Ho.

As per reports, Juhi hid her marriage from the world for fear of a negative impact on her career. She was at the peak of her career and was afraid that revealing the news of her marriage might affect her stardom.
In an earlier interview with Rajeev Masand, Juhi said, “I was just about established and just starting to do well. That’s the time Jay was serenading me, and I was afraid of losing my career just when I kind of got there. So, I wanted to carry on and this seemed the midway, that let’s keep it quiet and it’s okay, you carry on working.”
For those who don’t know, Jay is the chairman of Mehta Group and has an estimated net worth of Rs 1000-2400 crore. Whereas, Juhi has not been seen on the big screen for a long time, but is still the richest Indian actress with an estimated net worth of Rs 4600 crore.
