Meet woman, sole heiress to Rs 4,171 crore business empire, did schooling from Dhirubhai Ambani International School, her parents are…

Jahnavi Mehta – not many are familiar with the name. Very reclusive to social gatherings, not a social media favourite, but has a nick name – ‘IPL girl’ because of her not-to-be-missed presence during IPL auctions. Her parents, along with Shah Rukh Khan, co-own the Kolkata Knight Riders franchise in the Indian Premier League. Previously, the three also founded Dreamz Unlimited, a production company. Jahnavi Mehta is the daughter of Bollywood 90s’ favourite actress Juhi Chawla and her husband, businessman Jay Mehta.

Jahnavi keeps a low profile and isn’t very active on social media. Although she has 53.9k followers on Instagram, she has only made five posts so far.

Born on February 21, 2001, Jahnavi started her education at Dhirubhai Ambani International School before continuing at Charterhouse School in England and later at Columbia University in New York. She was an excellent student and almost ranked among the top 10 in her class.

The IPL 2025 Auction, held on 24-25 November at the Abadi Al Johar Arena in Jeddah, brought together team owners and representatives for an intense player bidding process. During the event, Jahnavi Mehta became the centre of online attention.

Juhi Chawla has shared that Jahnavi has a natural interest in cricket and understands the game well. She added that her daughter is passionate about cricket and enjoys discussing players and game strategies.
