Amrita Arora celebrates her birthday on 31st January

Bollywood has seen several stars rise to fame, but only a few were able to make a lasting impact on the industry. There are a few who, with the little work they did, left a lasting impression in the hearts of the public, and Amrita Arora is one such name. Born on January 31, 1978, in Mumbai, Amrita has been one name we attach nostalgia to. The actress's journey in the industry has been one of a kind, and today, on Amrita Arora's birthday, let's sit back and skim through her beautiful time in Bollywood.

The Debut

The early 2000s were a time of transition in Bollywood, and Amrita found her place amidst the evolving landscape. Her debut in the film 'Kitne Door Kitne Paas' (2002) might not have set the box office on fire, but it showcased her potential as an actress. After witnessing her debut flop, Amrita didn't lose hope, and then came 'Awara Paagal Deewana,' her first successful film, which was an action comedy. Later, Amrita's career saw a dip, leading to multiple flops, but this couldn't stop her from taking up challenges. In 2004, Amrita appeared in a film with Isha Koppikar. The two actresses came together to work in 'Girlfriend,' a movie about a lesbian relationship.

The Exit

Amrita's career witnessed its share of highs and lows, but she maintained a dignified presence throughout. Amrita worked in several films like 'Golmaal Returns,' 'Heroes,' 'Rama Rama Kya Hai Ye Drama,' among others, but in 2015, after 'Kuch Toh Hai Tere Mere Darmiyaan,' Amrita said goodbye to the industry. Most recently, she appeared in the series 'Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives' as herself.

The Style Icon

Amrita's foray into the industry was not limited to acting; she carved a niche for herself as a style icon. Her fashion choices were a blend of contemporary trends and a touch of her own unique flair. Amrita always used to play with her style and used to put out bold fashion inspirations.

The Bonds

Although Amrita didn't have a very long career, the bonds she has made over the years were genuine and stuck by her side in all the highs and lows. Amrita's close bond with sister Malaika Arora was a much-talked-about aspect of her life. Apart from that, Amrita's friendship with Kareena Kapoor Khan also caught the eyes of netizens.

As we look back at Amrita's journey, it is not possible to not feel nostalgic. Although Amrita took a step back from the limelight, choosing to focus on her personal life, people still miss her on-screen presence.

To note, Amrita Arora got married to businessman Shakeel Ladak in 2009, and the couple welcomed two sons, Azaan and Rayaan.
