Jodhpur Rajasthan - Chitrangada Singh Top Talented Indian Artist 2015

WONDERMODE - Chitrangada Singh is another hot Bollywood starlet, who has often been compared to ace actress Smita Patil. But she has now proved that she is equally good for mainstream cinema, with commercial hits like “Desi Boyz” and “Inkaar”.

Chitrangada Singh was born and brought up in Meerut in Western Uttar Pradesh. Her brother is golfer Digvijay Singh. As a girl, she was known for looking like the late actress Smita Patil. "You have outdone Smita Patil", said Shekhar Kapur, when he saw Chitrangada Singh's performance in her debut movie Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi (2003). She received training in Kathak (a classical dance) and enjoyed acting. Chitrangada Singh was married to golfer Jyoti Randhawa. Chitrangada and her husband separated in 2013 and then formally got divorced in April 2014. The couple has a son named Zorawar; his custody has been granted to Chitrangada.
