Staying away from the glamour of the silver screen is not an easy task. Whether it is Bollywood or Tollywood, surviving in the film industry is always challenging, especially for actresses. Even today, people believe that getting married or having a child means the end of an actress’s career. Not only that, if an actress stays away from films or serials for a while, many assume her career is over. But today, we will tell you about a Bollywood actress who has stayed away from the big screen for several years, yet still managed to leave behind top Bollywood heroines in terms of wealth.
Success doesn’t only come from films in Bollywood
Success in the film industry is often linked to money. But one Indian actress has proved that being away from the big screen doesn’t stop success. Despite not working in films for the last two years, this actress has become the richest female star in India.
