Anu Aggarwal Biography : Early life and background

Anu Aggarwal was born on 11 January 1969 in Delhi and was also raised in New Delhi. She had been acting since her school days. When she was in 7th class, she passed a stiff competition to act in a monologue. Next year, when she was in 8th class, she started a theater group. In 9th class, she both acted in as well as directed a play. In 10th class, she was even writing a script, when she had to stop everything due to her board exams. She was a gold medalist in sociology at Delhi University. After a brief stint in modelling, and VJing, and appearance in the Doordarshan serial Isi Bahane (1988), she made her Bollywood debut with the musical blockbuster Aashiqui, following which she was much in demand.

In 1997 she joined Yoga in Bihar School of Yoga and stayed there as a Karmayogi. In 1999 she was back in Mumbai to pack her things when a serious car accident happened. Aggarwal was in a coma for 29 days, which left her with no memory of her earlier life. After that in 2001 she became a monk. She lives in Mumbai and is single. She practices yoga. She stated in one of her interviews: “To feel strong, to walk amongst humans with a tremendous feeling of confidence and superiority is not at all wrong. The sense of superiority in bodily strength is borne out by the long history of mankind paying homage in folklore, song and poetry to strong women”.

Aggarwal is a motivational TED featured speaker, runs Anu Aggarwal Foundation for mental health, environmental well-being, stress relief, and discovering joy in the challenged times of today.
