Preity Zinta, the Bollywood Queen Who Turned Down ₹600 Crores, Now a Rich Businesswoman

Preity Zinta, known for her stellar acting debut in Mani Ratnam’s "Dil Se" in 1998, has carved a unique path by combining Bollywood success with smart business ventures. After thrilling audiences with hit films and pairing with stars like Salman Khan, Preity stepped back from acting to focus on her family and businesses.

Despite stepping away from films, Preity Zinta’s net worth has soared, reportedly around ₹183 crores (approximately $30 million) as of 2025. This wealth comes not just from movies but also from brand endorsements, property investments in Mumbai and Shimla, and her co-ownership of the IPL team Punjab Kings. Preity invested around ₹35 crores in the team, whose valuation has climbed to nearly $925 million.

Known for her humility and family values, Preity now lives in California with her husband Gene Goodenough and twins. She is gearing up for a film comeback with Rajkumar Santoshi’s "Lahore 1947," for which she reportedly charges ₹10 crores.

Beyond her luxurious lifestyle—owning high-end cars like a Lexus, Mercedes, Porsche, and BMW—Preity remains loved for her charm, business acumen, and philanthropy, including adopting and supporting orphaned girls. Her story inspires many as she balances fame, fortune, and family with grace.
