2700 करोड़ की मालकिन की बेटी, बैंक की नौकरी छोड़ बनीं स्टार, किराए पर ही खर्च हो जाती थी पूरी सैलरी

New Delhi. Soha Ali Khan who belongs to Pataudi’s royal family. Mother Sharmila Tagore is a mistress of over 2700. But would you believe that this daughter of Pataudi family not only worked in the bank before becoming an actress, but also spent the day in a rented house.

Soha Ali Khan recently shared the story of his early days of his career. Soha started a job in an international bank in Mumbai after earning a masters degree from London School of Economics. Her annual salary was 2.2 lakh rupees, but surprisingly it was that she used to spend almost her almost full earnings (2.04 lakh rupees) on a house with a month of Rs 17,000 in Lokhandwala.

Soha told instant Bollywood, ‘I wanted to live an independent life, wanted to take my decisions with my earnings.’ However, he admitted that he had the support of parents (Sharmila Tagore and Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi), who could help them when needed. This security gave him the confidence to take big decisions in his career.

Life changed with modeling

Soha’s life changed when he got a modeling contract, for which he had to get Rs 5 lakh in a year. This amount was two and a half times more than the annual salary of his bank. Subsequently, he received an offer of Rs 10 lakh for his first film ‘Dil Mange More’. Soha said, ‘This was a huge amount for me. I thought, I will do this first, I will see the rest later.

Soha said that she wanted to pursue a career in films, but she was afraid that her parents might be angry with this decision, as she did well in finance and international relations. Nevertheless, he took this risk on the strength of his earnings and freedom.

Acting starts with ‘Dil Maange More’

Soha first received the offer of Amol Palekar’s film Paheli, but the project was canceled. At that time he had neither job nor film. But later his film innings started with ‘Dil Mange More’ and he made his place in Bollywood. Soha admitted that the time of Rs 2.2 lakh was considered good. But in today’s time, this amount seems very low.
