Support doesn’t always come in the form of words. One such act was by Janhvi Kapoor’s boyfriend, Shikhar Pahariya, who is said to have left his studies in London after the death of her mother Sridevi in 2018. Janhvi has recently remembered that Shikhar came back to Mumbai at that time, though they were not dating at the time.
The disclosure provides a first look into a relationship that has garnered a lot of public attention. It also highlights the career of Shikhar himself, who is into business, finance, polo and real estate.
Why Shikhar Pahariya Returned to Mumbai for Janhvi Kapoor

Janhvi shared the memory in the context of the post-Sridevi sudden death in February 2018. The veteran actor passed away in Dubai after accidentally drowning in a bathtub, and her daughters Janhvi and Khushi Kapoor are left with a lot to cope with.
At the time, Shikhar was studying in London. Janhvi says he took a break of around half a semester and returned to Mumbai. He first lived with his father and then with a friend in Juhu where he is said to have lived for a month.
The gesture was all the more meaningful because Janhvi was not aware of the magnitude of his choice. She said that she didn’t meet him every day and found out about the details later. As she remembered, Shikhar wanted to be near her in case she needed him. He was said to have said, “In case she needs me, I just want to be around.”
Who Is Shikhar Pahariya?
Shikhar Pahariya was born on 3rd April, 1996 in Delhi and raised in Mumbai. He attended the Bombay Scottish and Dhirubhai Ambani International School, and then studied Global Financial Management at Regent’s University London.
He has also been the subject of interest for his family background. His grandfather is Sushilkumar Shinde, the former chief minister of Maharashtra. Shikhar has been involved in a variety of commercial and sporting ventures and has built an interesting profile for himself.
He had an entrepreneurial streak from a young age. He began his pet owner consultancy at age 13. He then spent time as an investment analyst at Wadhawan Global Capital in London, where he acquired experience in the financial industry.
He also made another move into the business in 2018 when he co-founded Indiawyn Gaming with his brother Veer. These businesses are a part of his professional history that contributed to his fortune.
Another important aspect of his life is polo. Shikhar is a member of the Royal Jaipur Polo Team of India and played Polo in the Berkshire Polo Club, London in 2013. The sport gives him a new kind of public persona, one that’s not typically associated with celebrity relationships.
Shikhar Pahariya Net Worth and Sources of Income

Shikhar’s net worth is estimated to be Rs 83 crore to Rs 84 crore, or around $10 million, according to Magicbricks. This amount is an estimate, however, and not a verified reflection of his finances. Sources of his reported income include his early consulting work, working in finance, gaming, family business, real estate investments, and polo-related sponsorships.
His career includes Indiawyn Gaming, and he has a history of working in the financial sector in London. There are other factors that add to his overall wealth, such as his family’s business interests. It is hard to determine the contribution from each source without a verified financial breakdown. The figure is a reflection of his reported financial assets, but does not show his total assets.
Inside Shikhar Pahariya’s Reported Real Estate Portfolio

Shikhar is said to have property stakes in Mumbai and London.
Mumbai Residence
Shikhar currently resides in Mumbai and his reported residence is a modern house in a posh locality. Bandra and Worli are considered as possible addresses, but neither should be considered as a confirmed address.
The home is believed to be a minimalist design, featuring light and bright interiors, clutter-free areas, and contemporary finishes. The apartment is reportedly suitable for professional obligations and leisure time thanks to a private entertainment area and a corner for working from home. The building is also said to provide amenities like a gym, concierge and valet parking.
London Property
London is another page of Shikhar’s property story. He reportedly owns a home in the British capital, where he previously studied and worked. The house is said to be warm, have big windows, a modern kitchen, and a comfortable bedroom. It is not known where or when it was purchased. It appears that it was purchased during his studies or at a later time.
The property is also seen as a long-term investment. However, the market value, ownership and the financial returns are not indicated. He has other real estate holdings, such as residential flats in Mumbai and ones that could be linked to his family’s business.
Luxury Cars and Philanthropic Interests
Among the cars he is reported to own are a Lamborghini Aventador and a Range Rover SV.
He is also an international traveler and has over 500,000 followers on Instagram. In addition to his lifestyle, Shikhar is also known to have been associated with the empowerment of women and education in rural Maharashtra.
He has also condemned a casteist insult that he received on Instagram and conveyed his support for India’s diversity.
Conclusion
Janhvi Kapoor’s memories of Shikhar Pahariya’s return to Mumbai post Sridevi’s death brings a more personal touch to his public persona. Apart from the headlines of his relationship with Janhvi, Shikhar has had an interest in finance, entrepreneurship, polo and real estate.
His net worth and the number of properties he owns have not been confirmed, but they have certainly piqued the public’s interest in his life. In the end, it’s the quiet support that may resonate more than expensive homes and luxury cars. After all, you can purchase a Lamborghini, but when someone needs you, that’s a different kind of investment.
