Before getting into details and listing down the poorest actor in India. Let’s talk briefly about the on-screen and off-screen journeys of various actors and loved them for who they are in real life. There are some actors who start their journey from zero and later achieve love from fans all over the world, fame, money, and other such things, but there are also a few actors who had all of these things at one point but later lost their fame and luck and became completely impoverished.
So, here is a list of Bollywood actors who have become poor from rich-
Parveen Babi

However, the actress suffered paranoid schizophrenia. The actress died a lonely death in her Mumbai apartment. After three days, people learned about her death. For two days, no one came forward to claim her corpse. Mahesh Bhatt afterwards administered her last rites.
Bhagwan Dada
