Claim to fame : Miss Universe 1994

A Bengali beauty reared in a middle-class suburb of Delhi, now showered with attention of global proportions.

Born on November 19, 1975 this ambassador of feminine beauty, peace, love, and optimism Sushmita Sen was crowned Miss Universe 1994, the first Miss Universe from India.

Sushmita's defense background ensured that she led a nomadic life. Her mother's decision to shift base to Delhi, was to render some permanency in her children's lives, as also to enable her children have proper education. With an advantageous height, she made her entry into the world of fashion. She did a few fashion shows before she went in for the Femina Miss India pageant. Her decision to join movies was well accepted and Bollywood welcomed her with open arms.

Sushmita made her debut in Dastak in the role of a vulnerable girl being stalked by a psycho. Then Sushmita did a comic role in David Dhawan’s Biwi No.1 and caught movie buff’s attention and picked up some awards. She had a flair for the comedy. She also did a romantic role opposite Abhishek Bachchan in Bus Itna Sa Khwab Hai. She was seen in a very realistic role in Meghna Gulzar’s directorial debut Filhaal. She has got very rave reviews for her convincing portrayal of the character in the film.

Sushmita is intelligent, but it's an intelligence as yet untainted by realism. Before all this happened, here was yet a gossamer world, tipped between the cradle and the crown. Creative rather than literal, poetic rather than pedantic, it is these very qualities that endeared her to the viewers and judges.

She has led a rather normal filmi existence and has had her fair share of carping critics, her erratic lifestyle, her unpunctual ways, her live in relationships, her phenomenal asking price, and her non-deflated ego, all have brought her more than her share of flak.

Bravo Sushmita! The diva lives in Mumbai with her beautiful daughter Renee and continues living in the hearts of us all!
