How does Bollywood’s Shilpa Shetty spend her US$18 million net worth? The Hungama 2 star splurges on luxury homes in Dubai and Mumbai, and high fashion by Louis Vuitton, Hermès and Dior

- Her Insta feed is full of shots of Kyoto, Italy and the Maldives, as well as Dubai where she and hubby Raj Kundra used to have a duplex in the Burj Khalifa
- The couple also own a house the media branded the ‘Raj Mahal’ in St George’s Hill, Surrey, making them neighbours with Elton John and Cliff Richard
While Shilpa Shetty took a break from the big screen in 2008, the hiatus didn’t stop her remaining popular. The 45-year-old actress – who is finally, thankfully, returning to films this year – always continued to work outside acting. She launched popular yoga DVDs, a YouTube cooking channel that clocks 2.2 million subscribers, appeared as a reality show judge and turned into what few Bollywood actresses have sets their sights on after stepping back from the screen: an entrepreneur.
After tying the knot with British millionaire Raj Kundra in 2009, Shetty expanded her portfolio with a myriad of businesses: a successful fitness app, high-end restaurants and even a clothing line. Not only that, the mother-of-two cements her social media presence with an impressive 20 million Instagram followers (and counting). There she often shares family times, fitness regimes, diet menus and, of course, her luxurious lifestyle. From jet-setting to the Maldives to sharing sneak peeks of her multimillion-dollar home, Shetty embodies work-life balance like few others.
With an estimated net worth of US$18 million, how does Mrs Shetty-Kundra spend her hard-earned cash?
Her lavish house
Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra live in one of the most expensive houses in Juhu, Mumbai, named Kinara. Her sea-facing home is estimated to be worth US$3.2 million, according to IBTimes India, with its blend of traditional design and modern architecture. From a spacious bar area to cosy balconies, her home also boasts a massive home gym adorned with art and gold chandeliers. And let’s not forget her expansive Zen garden where she often performs her morning yoga poses.
