Actress Nagma

Born: 25 December 1974, Mumbai
Nandita Morarji or Narmatha Sadanah,  better known as Nagma‘s biological father was Sri Arvind Pratapsinh Morarji, the late textile magnate. Her mother is Seema Sadhana, who married Morarji in 1972, separating only "a few years later," as The Telegraph reported in 2006 when Nagma made the information public.

It was Nagma's mother who encouraged her to become an actress, and is said to have been her "constant companion on the film sets" for several years. Nagma had considerable success with her 1990 hit debut film Baaghi: A Rebel for Love, co-starring Salman Khan; she was 16 at the time. Along with Karisma Kapoor, she was also one of the female leads in 1994's Suhaag which also featured Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgan. Despite this initial success, she moved south to star in Telugu and Tamil movies at the behest of her friend Divya Bharti. She became a major star in the south and remained so for much of the 1990s, at least until 1997, and reportedly had a temple dedicated to her by fans in Tamil Nadu.

Following alleged death threats by Sarath Kumar, and as her southern movie career was stalled by type-casting, she moved back to Mumbai. In an interview in 2001, she is reported to have said "The pressure of being the number one actress in Tamil cinema was getting to me. I was unhappy with the kind of films I was doing. I couldn't do the kind of work I wanted to because I had to go by the dictates of what the audience expected of a much-in-demand actress. I was stagnating so I decided to take a break.". Again based in Bollywood, she focused on supporting roles in major hits such as 2000's Chal Mere Bhai, which reunited her with former costars Karisma Kapoor, Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt.

Nagma is currently a major star in Bhojpuri movies, where she has again found success as a leading lady. She was notably successful when paired against the "Big Boss" reality show participant Ravi Kishan, with whom she was also linked romantically in real life Called by some "the Madhuri Dixit of Bhojpuri cinema," she won a Best Actress award at the 2005 Bhojpuri Film Awards for her performance in Dulha Milal Dildar.

In 2006's Ganga, she starred as Ganga opposite Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini. When asked why she shifted to Bhojpuri films, she stated that "I wanted to do films in different languages. I have already done movies in 10 languages.”

In 2006, she made her Punjabi film debut, starring alongside Raj Babbar in Ek Jind Ek Jaan.

In the spirit of her father's background in textiles, Nagma herself now has a clothing boutique on Mumbai's Hill Road called Nagma's, which was inaugurated in September 2003 by Akshay Kumar.

Whether she likes it or not, she’s always in the news. The petite actress who made waves in the 1990s in Mumbai moviedom, subsequently flew off to become Heroine No. 1 in Tamil and Telugu cinema, returned to her Bandra home..and then became the rani of Bhojpuri movies.

In her private life, she has been restless..a state aggravated by stories of her liaisons, reports of her blood ties to a business family.. and of late, she has been receiving threatening phone calls.

Back South..there were rumours about a relationship with the already-married actor-MP Sharath Kumar. That didn’t culminate in a happy ending. She was back in Mumbai..her sister Jyothika stepped into her high heels in the south movies, Nagma joined politics, she was back on the hoardings of the booming Bhojpuri movies (which suffered a crash eventually), opened a boutique..and now aims to make a comeback in the city’s glitzy fantasy factory, fingers and toes crossed.

Her life could make quite a novel or even a soap opera..
