Surprised at the new pairing that the internet found strange and unusual, Twitter burst out with a riot of memes. While Sushmita had been in relationships with Randeep Hooda and Rohman Shawl previously, Lalit Modi had been married to Minal.
4 Most Iconic Screen Presences Of Sushmita Sen
Here are 5 of Sushmita Sen’s most iconic screen presences, in movies and on OTT, for you to #BeALittleMore aware of her body of work.
1. Aarya (Hotstar+Disney Series)
The thriller on Hotstar+Disney features Sushmita in a pivotal role, having inherited the family-owned business after the shocking murder of her husband in broad daylight. As she balances work and family of three growing children, gradually forging her way towards making a clean exit from the country and settling down in New Zealand, she is haunted by a murky past of the family business, comprising enemies old and new. She befriends some to tackle the others, and on the way, she makes more enemies – one of them being the police, who were on her side previously.
The series unfurls her journey from being a wobbly individual questioning her divisive skills to a sure-footed businesswoman no longer in desperate need to find an escape route. And she does all this while being a fiercely protective mother, bearing the fangs of a tigress when need be. Having crossed two hugely successful seasons, the franchise is soon to release its third season.
