BEIJING: Chinese screen siren Dilraba Dilmurat has raised eyebrows after revealing that she has yet to purchase a property of her own, despite boasting an estimated net worth of 245 million yuan (about RM149 million).
According to media reports, the 34-year-old star sees little point in investing in a permanent residence, as her relentless filming and promotional schedules keep her constantly on the move.
For the Xinjiang-born beauty, “home” is simply wherever she can unzip her suitcase and lay out her personal items.
Having entered the entertainment industry at just 18, Dilraba has spent more than a decade living out of her luggage while jet-setting across cities and borders for work.
This fast-paced, nomadic routine has trained her to travel remarkably light, restricting her daily essentials to what can fit inside a single suitcase.
Rather than dealing with the upkeep of a private house, the actress admitted she much prefers the convenience of five-star hotels, where everything from gourmet meals to daily housekeeping is taken care of.
She also shared a glimpse into her quick check-in ritual, noting that it takes her roughly 20 minutes to settle into any new hotel room—unpacking her bag, laying down her own bedsheets, and neatly arranging her toiletries.
