Ram Kapoor and Sakshi Tanwar
Ram Kapoor, a celebrated name in Indian television, recently offered a glimpse into the staggering financial success possible in the industry. During a candid podcast with Humans of Bombay, the Bade Acche Lagte Hain star explained how television money, if managed wisely, can create wealth that lasts for generations, drawing sharp contrasts between actors who planned well and those who faded away.
The actor lauded his contemporary, Ronit Roy, for his astute investment choices. He pointed out that Ronit’s initial struggles in the film industry taught him valuable lessons. “People like a Ronit… he has a lot of houses, vacation homes, and such a fantastic villa in Goa," Kapoor shared. He credited Ronit’s financial success to his past experiences, stating, "He was a flop actor in films and he didn’t have money to eat. Then Ektaa Kapoor took him on. On television, he never looked back. He had seen failure, so when he got success, he respected it from day one." This perspective allowed Ronit to build a secure financial foundation from his television earnings.

The Double-Edged Sword of TV Fame
Kapoor emphasised that reaching the pinnacle of television success can be incredibly lucrative. However, he issued a stark warning about the perils of financial mismanagement. "When you make it to the top like Ronit Roy, Sakshi, and me, and you are sensible with your investments… There were a lot of people who had hit shows, but they spent more money than they should have, and when that show shut down, they didn’t get another show. They did not do well and disappeared," he explained, highlighting that fame without financial discipline can be fleeting.The actor lauded his contemporary, Ronit Roy, for his astute investment choices.

Sakshi Tanwar`s Sensible Approach
Ram also praised his former co-star Sakshi Tanwar for her grounded and sensible lifestyle. He noted that her financial intelligence has secured her future manifold. “Same for Sakshi. She is a very sensible girl. She doesn’t like fancy cars like I do," he said. Highlighting her prudent spending, he added, "She has enough money for six generations because she spends it very wisely. If you spend money wisely, then you will have money for a lot of things on television." This underscores the idea that lifestyle choices directly impact long-term financial health, even for the industry`s top earners.Also Read: Ram Kapoor Drives Home a Lamborghini Urus SE Worth Over Rs. 4.57 Crore
