Taslima Nasrin Net Worth

Background and career

Taslima Nasrin (born 25 August 1962) is a Bangladeshi-Swedish writer, physician, feminist, secular humanist, and activist. She is known for her writings on feminism and her criticism of Islam; some of her books are banned in Bangladesh.

She gained global attention by the beginning of the 1990s owing to her essays and novels with feminist views and criticism of what she characterises as all "misogynistic" religions. Nasrin has been living in exile since 1994, with multiple fatwas calling for her death. After living more than a decade in Europe and the United States, she moved to India in 2004 and has been staying there on a resident permit, multiple-entry, or 'X' visa since.

Nasrin has been blacklisted and banished from the Bengal region, including both Bangladesh and the Indian state of West Bengal during the governments of Communist Party of India (Marxist) and Trinamool Congress. After Bharatiya Janata Party's victory in state legislative assembly of West Bengal in 2026, she returned to Kolkata after nearly 20 years in exile from the city.
