Neel Sethi Net Worth $1 Million
Of Indian ancestry, Neel wasn’t quite connected with performing arts while growing up. Instead, his parents wanted him to become a dentist, in other words, they wanted to follow their path. However, he turned to acting when he was ten years old, and made his acting debut in the short comedy film “Diwali”. However, unsurprisingly he then became more focused on his education rather than acting, but after reading “The Jungle Book”, and finding out that there were plans for the film, Neel once again turned toward acting. He auditioned for the part of Mowgli alongside more than 2000 other boys, and luckily was chosen for the lead part. The film “The Jungle Book” came out in 2016, directed by Jon Favreau, and next to Neel, the film starred Ben Kingsley and Bill Murray, though only as voices of Bagheera and Baloo. The film became an significant success, both critically and commercially, winning an Academy Award and numerous other awards, while it grossed over $965 million at the box office, which only increased Neel’s potential net worth by a large margin.
Since then, Neel has been distanced somewhat from show business, and has again been focused on his education, though he will return for a new Mowgli adventure since Disney and Favreau have come to an agreement for another film. Also, he plans to become a full-time actor, once he has finished his education.
When it comes to his personal life, Neel has been secretive about his most intimate details, therefore, no reliable information is made available about this young rising star.
