Anushka Sharma

Anushka Sharma born 1 May 1988) is an Indian actress and former model who appears in Bollywood films. In 2008, she made her screen debut in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, directed by Aditya Chopra.















Sharma was born in Bangalore. Her father, Col. Ajay Kumar Sharma, is an army officer and her mother Ashima Sharma is a housewife. She has an elder brother named Karnesh who was a state-level cricketer and is now in the Merchant Navy.














She studied in Army School and graduated with specialization in arts from Mount Carmel College, Bangalore. She then moved to Mumbai to further her modeling career, where she currently resides.














Sharma says she originally wished to make it big in the modeling world but had no strong aspirations for films. She began her modeling career at the Lakme Fashion Week as a model for Wendell Rodricks's Les Vamps Show and was picked to be Rodricks's finale model at the Spring Summer '07 Collection. Since then she has done campaigns for Silk & Shine, Whisper, Nathella Jewelry and Fiat Palio.















Her first acting role was in Aditya Chopra's Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi opposite Shahrukh Khan. The film was a huge success and her performance was appreciated. Film critic Taran Adarsh said, "Anushka looks the character and surprises you with a confident performance.















It's no small achievement to share screen space with an actor of the calibre of SRK and Anushka manages it very well from start to end." Her second film, Badmaash Company, also under Yash Raj Films, was released on May 7, 2010. She was praised for breaking out of the shell of the conservative and homely Taani to play the feisty and independent Bulbul, and her performance was applauded. Harshita Kohli of StarBoxOffice.com said, "Anushka Sharma goes from Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi housewife to super hot chic in Badmaash Company...Her acting is under stated and there are no histrionics that you normally associated with females in Bollywood films which makes it a pleasant surprise."

Kajal Agarwal

Kajal Agarwal (born on 19 June 1985) is an Indian actress, who has appeared in Telugu and Tamil films. She made her acting debut in Bollywood, and had her first huge commercial success at the box office in the Telugu movie Chandamama and in Tamil movie Saroja. She rose to prominence after her performance as Yuvarani Mitravinda and Indu in the 2009 Telugu film Magadheera which turned out to be her biggest Tollywood commercial success.















Kajal was born on 19 June 1985 in Mumbai, India. She finished her studies in Mumbai. She started her modeling career while she was in college.














Kajal made her acting debut in the 2004 Hindi film Kyun… Ho Gaya Na!, in which she enacted a minor supporting role as the friend of Diya, the film’s lead, played by Aishwarya Rai. She got her next acting offer only 3 years later, which was veteran Tamil director Bhrathiraja’s Bommalattam. The film, however, got delayed and released only in late 2008.















In the meantime, she made her debut in the Telugu film industry and played her first leading role in Teja’s Lakshmi Kalyanam alongside Kalyan Ram, which did not do well at the box office. Later that year, she appeared in the Krishna Vamsi-directed film Chandamama, which became her first major successul film.















In 2008, she had her first Tamil-language film release, which was Perarasu’s action entertainer Pazhani co-starring Bharath. Following this film, she had two more Tamil releases that year with Venkat Prabhu’s comedy-thriller Saroja, in which she did a guest appearance, and finally Bharathiraja’s investigative thriller Bommalattam.














Although the former went on to become a commercial as well as a critical success, both films failed to boost her career as her roles were too insignificant. Both her Telugu releases that year, Pourudu and Aatadista opposite Sumanth and Nitin, respectively, neither received positive reviews nor were successul at the box office.
