Danny Denzongpa Builds Successful Brewery Empire in Northeast India
Veteran Bollywood actor Danny Denzongpa, originally from Sikkim, transitioned from acting to entrepreneurship by founding Yuksom Breweries in 1987. Starting as a small local venture, it grew into one of India's largest breweries and the biggest in the Northeast. Denzongpa invested around Rs 40 crore to prevent Vijay Mallya's United Breweries from entering the Northeast market. His business expansion included setting up Denzong Breweries in Odisha and acquiring Rhino Agencies in Assam, contributing to regional employment and economic growth.
