Anupam Kher reveals he manages brother Raju’s finances, praises wife, Kirron Kher for her support: ‘She never…’
In the glitzy and glamorous world of Bollywood, we often hear how success creates distance. However, veteran actor Anupam Kher stands as a rare example of humility and emotional intelligence. Despite being one of Bollywood’s most respected stars, the actor recently revealed that he lives on rent. And the reason behind it is something you will never see coming.
Successful actor Anupam Kher’s reason to stay on rent is not to save money, but because he wants to save peace in his family. Anupam Kher stays on rent to ensure that after he’s gone, there are no property disputes or bitterness left behind.
He said, “Once a person is gone, or has passed away, there is a chance that some disputes might arise regarding the property he has left behind. There is less conflict involved with distributing money. I have seen and talked to aged people, and their stories are harrowing. Someone has been thrown out by their son; someone is being coerced to sign over their property. These kinds of things and conversations don’t happen in my house.”

The actor also added his sister-in-law took care of their father until his last breath, saying, “My parents lived more with my brother and his wife than they did with me.”

He revealed that he often sent cheques for his brother and household expenses, saying, “I told my manager long ago, ‘Remember one thing in life, never ask me how much money I’m giving to my brother.’”
