Made her debut with Shah Rukh Khan, gained fame instantly, but suddenly quit Bollywood – Who is this actress?

Shah Rukh Khan has been Bollywood's biggest superstar for a long time. His films are eagerly awaited by the audience, and many actors dream of working in his films. It is believed that any actress who gets a chance to romance Shah Rukh on screen is destined to be lucky. Anushka Sharma and Deepika Padukone are great examples of this—both debuted with Shah Rukh and became one of the top actresses in the industry.

Similarly, another actress also got a chance to work with Shah Rukh early in her career. She appeared in the role of his girlfriend in the film, and this one film made her famous in every household. But she suddenly bid goodbye to the film industry and completely distanced herself from the world of glamour.

Who is this actress?

The actress we are talking about is none other than Gayatri Joshi, who worked opposite Shah Rukh Khan in the 2004 film Swades. This film is counted among Shah Rukh's best films, and her character in it touched the hearts of the people. Gayatri also won the hearts of the audience with her acting. However, Swades remained her first and last film.

Said bye-bye to the industry after just one film

Although the film was not a box office success, it opened many doors for Gayatri in the film industry. She started getting offers for many more films, but the actress changed her decision to make a career in acting. After the release of the film, she left the industry and distanced herself from showbiz to such an extent that to date she has not appeared in any other film. Gayatri married businessman Vikas Oberoi. Thus 'Swades' became her first, last and only Bollywood film.

Who is Gayatri Joshi's husband

Gayatri Joshi's husband Vikas Oberoi is a businessman who controls and operates Oberoi Construction, one of India's leading realty firms. According to Forbes, his net worth is $6 billion i.e. Rs 50000 crore. He owns the Westin Hotel in Mumbai and is also building the city's first Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
