Former Indian actress Asin, known for her roles in “Ready” with Salman Khan, “Ghajini” alongside Aamir Khan, and “Housefull 2” with Akshay Kumar, left the film industry after her marriage in January 2016. She tied the knot with entrepreneur Rahul Sharma, the co-founder and CEO of Micromax.
Who is Rahul Sharma?
Rahul Sharma is renowned as the co-founder and CEO of Micromax. As Forbes, GQ, and other sources reported, Sharma founded Micromax Informatics in 2000 with his friends Rajesh Aggarwal, Vikas Jain, and Sumeet Arora. Initially an IT software company, the Delhi-based firm ventured into the mobile phone market in 2008, quickly becoming one of India’s leading manufacturers of affordable phones by 2010, with Hugh Jackman as a brand ambassador.
Sharma’s entrepreneurial journey began with a Rs 3 lakh loan from his father, as mentioned by Zee News. Today, Rahul Sharma’s net worth is around Rs 1,300 crore. He holds a Mechanical Engineering degree from Rashtrasant Tukadoji Maharaj Nagpur University and a Bachelor’s in Commerce from the University of Saskatchewan, Canada. Besides Micromax, Sharma is also the founder of Revolt Intellicorp, which introduced India’s first AI-based electric bike in 2017.
The Role of a Bollywood Superstar in Their Love Story
Akshay Kumar, who co-starred with Asin in “Housefull 2,” played matchmaker by introducing her to his close friend Rahul Sharma in 2012, as reported by DNA India. Kumar later served as the best man at their wedding. The couple now have a daughter named Arin Rayn.
Rahul Sharma and Asin’s Luxurious Lifestyle
Rahul Sharma and Asin lead a lavish lifestyle, residing in a grand farmhouse in Delhi. Sharma owns an impressive collection of luxury cars, including a Bentley Supersport Limited Edition, a BMW X6, a Mercedes GL450, and a Rolls-Royce Ghost Series 2, as highlighted by NDTV and The Statesman.
