The actress never fails to make headlines with her powerful performance and vocal opinions. Known for movies like Pyaar Ka Punchnama and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, Nushrratt recently opened up about facing a financial crisis in her family, revealing she used to survive on Rs 8 per day. During her recent interview with Bollywood Bubble, Nushrratt Bharuccha recalled how she manages her wealth in an unstable profession where her next job isn’t guaranteed.
The Dream Girl actress revealed that she is the sole breadwinner of the family and always tries to keep herself on a tight budget. Shedding light on her struggling days, Nushrratt stated, “Very early on, I had decided how much I would spend in a month, my basic needs and everything that is left after that is automatically sent to investments and savings. The money never comes to my account.
The accountants are instructed to send the money to the wealth manager to invest it." The 39-year-old actress further revealed that she is ‘scared’ because her parents are old and depend on her. “I am scared because my father is close to 70, my mom is 62, and my grandmother is 92, and they are all on me.
I need to have the backup, the pool of money required when god forbid, something happens," she added. Nushrratt admitted that this financial discipline is nothing new for her, as she experienced a difficult period in her childhood and witnessed her parents go through a financial crisis. The actress revealed she has always been frugal with her spending, saying, “I have made my world small.
When I would travel to Jai Hind College from Juhu...
my dad was facing financial difficulty at that time, after he got cheated in his business." She added, “So, I was conscious of not spending his money. 90 per cent of my college life, I went five years that college, I used to only spend Rs 8 per day, and that was spent on travel.
I would take the train and then the bus to college, attend classes and would come back home. The only thing in Jai Hindi College which was free was water, so whenever I felt hungry, I would drink water. ".
