Meet Shah Rukh Khan's heroine, who faced rejections for being 'too good-looking', now runs her own brand worth Rs 1000000000 crore, name is..., net worth is Rs... Becoming successful in the industry is not a piece of cake. One has to go through a lot of highs and lows to prove themselves in the competitive entertainment world. One such example is this actress, an outsider, who didn't have an easy start, considering she faced bizarre criticism in her struggling phase. Today, she has become one of the most prominent actresses with a successful skincare brand of her own. The outsider in Bollywood who shattered all odds is Kriti Sanon. The actor, who turned 33 on Sunday, was born and brought up in Delhi and relocated to Mumbai to try her luck in films. She once spoke about her lowest-phase, how she faced a lot of challenges in the aspiring actor phase. HT Digital quoted her, 'There were days when I was annoyed and irritated. On some days, I used to cry, because there was nothing to keep me busy. There were also times when I met a few people who told me that something was not right about me — someone told me, 'You're too good-looking. There has to be some sort of imperfection in you to look real on screen.' I think I did feel low, but at the same time, I did have people who believed in me a lot. That's what you need. I think that gave me a little more confidence.' Kriti Sanon made her Bollywood debut with Tiger Shroff in Heropanti (2014), and went on to star in Rohit Shetty's Dilwale , alongside Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol and Varun Dhawan. Over the years, she starred in multiple box office hits such as Bareilly Ki Barfi, Luka Chuppi, and Housefull 4. In 2021, she earned the prestigious National Film Award for her incredible performance in Mimi. Last year, she shone in her OTT debut Do Patti, starring alongside Kajol and Shaheer Sheikh. Kriti's nuanced portrayal of a character with grey shades earned her critical acclaim. Apart from films, Kriti also ventured into entrepreneurial world. The National-Award winning actress launched her own skin-care brand, Hyphen, in 2023. Being a 'skin care nerd,' she co-founded the beauty brand with PEP Technologies, the company known for famous brand mCaffeine. According to Forbes, Hyphen generated Rs 100 crore revenue in its initial first years, becoming a tough competition to other celebrity brands' like Katrina Kaif's Kay Beauty, Mira Rajput's Akind and others. According to multiple reports, Kriti Sanon purchased a 2,000 sq ft plot in Alibaug last year, as a smart investment in real-estate. She resides in a lavish apartment in Sandhu Palace, located in Mumbai's posh area, Bandra. She reportedly pay monthly rent of Rs 17 lakh, which nearly cost her Rs 2 crore annually. Her estimated net worth according to reports is around Rs 82 crore.
