When Zayed Khan started his Bollywood journey with the film Chura Liyaa Hai Tumne, everyone thought he would become a big star. His role alongside Shah Rukh Khan in Main Hoon Na made people believe he was the next superstar. However, after these early successes, Zayed faced a lot of disappointments in his acting career. Between 2005 and 2012, he acted in 10 films, but sadly, all of them flopped at the box office. His last movie, Sharafat Gayi Tel Lene, released in 2015, was also a failure. He returned to TV in 2017 with the show Haasil, but by then, he had only one hit, while most of his projects were flops.

Despite the setbacks in movies, Zayed decided to focus on business instead of giving up. Using his degree in business management, he smartly invested in different startups and has built a great fortune. As of 2024, reports say his net worth is around ₹1500 crore. If this is true, it makes him richer than many famous actors today, including Ranbir Kapoor and Allu Arjun.

In an interview, Zayed shared some simple money advice: “Live within your means.” He warned against trying to impress others with a flashy lifestyle that one cannot afford. He believes that many people get into debt trying to keep up appearances, and this is not a good path to follow.

This year, Zayed hinted at wanting to return to acting but hasn’t shared details about his next project yet. He plans to continue balancing his business and acting roles.

Sukesh Chandrashekhar, a man in jail for fraud, has written another letter to actress Jacqueline Fernandez. This letter, which spread widely on social media, is a Christmas message and comes with a surprising gift. Sukesh claims to have bought Jacqueline a 107-year-old vineyard in southern France!

In his letter, dated December 25, Sukesh calls Jacqueline “baby girl” and wishes her a Merry Christmas. He says that being apart doesn’t stop him from being her “Santa Claus” and hints at a very special present for her this year. Instead of just a bottle of wine, he claims he has gifted her an entire vineyard! He writes, “You never even dreamed of it.”

Sukesh, who is currently in Tihar Jail due to an extortion and theft case, also says he can’t wait to visit the vineyard with her. He expresses how much he loves her, saying, “I am really crazy in love with you.” However, Jacqueline has not replied to any of his letters.

People online are confused and concerned about these letters. Many think Sukesh is being delusional for continuing to write to someone who has called him her “victim” to the police. Some even said that it feels scary.

For context, Sukesh was arrested in 2015 for a big fraud case, and during the investigation, Jacqueline’s name came up. While Sukesh claims they are dating, Jacqueline insists that he tricked her into thinking he was a legitimate businessman and now threatens her.
