Netflix’s Dubai Bling is back for Season 2 and the drama is too good, guys. I legit binge-watched all eight episodes over the weekend. A few hints that will gear you up: the big fat Arab wedding of Ebraheem Al Samadi, new cast member and the mind behind Huda Beauty, Mona Kattan, and of course, catching up to the much-loved half-Desi, half-Iraqi couple: the Siddiquis. It is hard not to love Fahad Siddiqui, as he tries to balance work in India and family in Dubai, and it is equally hard not to relate to Safa Siddiqui, as she navigates a newborn baby AND heated arguments with the crazy group of millionaires that she calls friends. Despite all odds, Fahad and Safa emerged as the cutest (and most relatable) family in the series.
This couple wasn’t born into Dubai’s elite. Before they lived in the famous Palm Jumeirah, they had a story that is similar to many: a dream to become big in Dubai. From their first meeting in London to now becoming the talk of the town, Safa and Fahad Siddiqui have proved to everyone that they aren’t your average couple. As two of the standout stars in Netflix’s Dubai Bling, these millionaires give us major #CoupleGoals through their high life in the glitzy city of the UAE. So, come along, we will take you on the journey of Safa and Fahad Siddiqui: their personal lives, careers, net worths, and their cutest meet-cute.
Fahad Siddiqui, born into an influential Indian family, has carved his path as the Managing Director of Dubai-based Indo Rise General Trading LLC since 2012. Additionally, he serves as the Executive Director of Siddiqui Group of Companies in Mumbai, India, a position he has held since June 2006. Before taking the reins of the family business, Fahad worked at Mumbai’s Orbit Corporation Limited from 2010 to 2011. Despite maintaining a low-key public profile, Dubai Bling introduced viewers to Safa’s “enterprising and highly successful husband.”
For all you Indian readers, it is fun to note that Fahad is a full-on Mumbai boy. Before meeting his British-Arab LOML in the UK, he studied BCom at Mumbai’s H.R. College Of Commerce & Economics and a Marketing degree from Mumbai Educational Trust League of Colleges. In Dubai Bling Season 2, we were introduced to his friends from the city – a sneak peek into his life back home. @Netflix producers! We are so excited to see what Safa and Fahad’s life would be like in India, once they start shuttling between the countries. They would fit into Mumbai’s elite just as seamlessly as Dubai, we bet.
Safa Siddiqui entered the Dubai Bling scene with a bang, racing onto the screen in her luxurious gray Lamborghini. A fashion designer, social media celebrity, model, and businesswoman, Safa’s life extends beyond her expensive properties, diamonds, and extravagant dinner parties. What truly resonates with us is her genuine love for family, making her one of the most beloved stars of the show.
We love how honest her portrayal on the show is. She doesn’t hold back on sharing her insecurities, fears and opinions. She makes sure she is respected in each room she enters. She can do anything for her best friends. She is a fierce mother to her two daughters and a strong female role model to them. We know, for a fact, that she will push them to be strong women too.
A commerce and management graduate, Safa embarked on her career as a real estate agent in London before setting her sights on the glamorous world of fashion in Dubai in 2013. According to The Cinemaholic, her annual earnings from real estate were around USD 150,000.
Driven by a passion for designing clothes, Safa launched her own collection with the renowned Chinese fast-fashion retailer, Shein. Her on-screen debut in Dubai Bling Season 1 catapulted her into the limelight as a “housewife with ambitions,” and by 2022, she had reportedly earned around USD 100,000 through her fashion endeavors.
In 2023, Safa emerged as the Reality TV Star of the Year at the Golden Wings Awards and showcased her modeling skills at India’s Lakme Fashion Week. Not satisfied with just gracing the runway, Safa announced her collaboration with German women’s clothing brand Lichi, solidifying her status as a rising fashion icon.
As Netflix dropped the highly anticipated second season of Dubai Bling on December 13, 2023, let’s take a peek into the opulent lifestyle of Safa and Fahad Siddiqui, including their jaw-dropping net worths.
According to the South China Morning Post, Safa’s net worth stands at a cool USD 1.5 million, fueled by beauty and fashion endorsements on social media and her presence on Dubai Bling. Fahad, the savvy businessman, boasts a net worth of USD 4 million, a result of successful business ventures and income from the reality show.
Both Safa and Fahad rake in around USD 2,500 per episode, as reported by ArabianBusiness. This power couple’s financial prowess is undoubtedly a key factor in their prominent standing on Dubai Bling.
The Siddiquis don’t just live life; they embody extravagance. From Safa’s first luxury purchase, a pair of Louboutin heels in 2013, to her current collection of high-end cars, including the Lamborghini Huracan and Mercedes S-Class, her taste is undeniably opulent.
In the first season of Dubai Bling, viewers witnessed Safa storming off to a Bulgari store after a spat with Fahad, splurging on a USD 3 million emerald-and-diamond Serpenti necklace. Her handbag collection includes a USD 2,050 Evelyne Hermès Bag and an USD 84,500 Hermès Birkin 25 Beton.
Nestled in Palm Jumeirah, their residence, shaped like a palm tree from above, symbolizes the epitome of luxury. The artificial island is home to Dubai’s elite, and their plush house with its stunning interiors and beachfront view is a testament to their high-flying lifestyle.
Safa Siddiqui, born in London in 1988, holds British-Iraqi nationality and follows Islamic beliefs. Fahad Siddiqui, born in Mumbai in 1986, entered Safa’s life through work in Dubai. After a long-term relationship, they got engaged in February 2018 and exchanged vows in two ceremonies in October 2019.
Their first daughter, Alina Siddiqui, arrived in 2020, followed by the birth of their second daughter in December 2022. This power couple’s love story is a captivating blend of cultural richness and modern romance.
In response to a question from Cosmo ME about how she and Fahad met, Safa Siddiqui shared that Fahad’s approach was persistent, which caught her interest. She recalled his first visit to her office, where he interacted with a colleague, and their subsequent encounters, leading to the development of a good friendship.
Initially, Safa was pleased to find a guy in Dubai who seemed genuinely interested in just being friends. However, Fahad’s birthday marked a turning point when he complimented her in a way that indicated romantic interest. Eventually, Safa realized he was more than just a friend, and their relationship blossomed into a romantic one.
Safa has always emphasized the importance of setting boundaries with your partner. In the same interview, she urged women not to settle for anything less than they deserve, encouraging them to focus on self-love before entering a serious relationship. According to Safa, every woman should experience a few bad dates to truly appreciate the gem when they find it.
Dubai Bling Season 2 gave us quite an insider look into Siddiquis’ lifestyle. Fahad, the family guy juggling business in India and Dubai’s high society, showed us his Mumbai roots, making us eager to see more of their life across continents. On the other hand, Safa, the Iraqi beauty turned fashion icon, not only shocks with her luxe purchases but also charms us with her authenticity, proving she’s more than just a reality TV star – she’s a relatable role model. Together, they make the ultimate power couple that the world needs to watch out for. @Netflix producers, when is Season 3 coming? You know we can’t wait to see where their story is headed next.

You said that they had a second child via surrogacy but that’s incorrect. Safa carried the child herself and had to go through an emergency caesarean operation. I think you should correct that.
