Bipasha Basu was born in Delhi, grew up in Kolkata and now is based in Mumbai. She wanted to be a doctor since childhood. She pursued science for Plus 2 but did her graduation in Commerce, as doing all those horrid rat dissections made her faint. Then she planned to do Chartered accountancy, but fate had something else in store for her. She met Mehr Jessia, one of the famous supermodels in India, in a hotel in Kolkata and she compelled her to participate in the Famous Ford Supermodels Contest in 1996. She won the contest at 17 years of age and the rest is history. Bipasha Basu went on to catwalk for all leading Indian designers.
After winning over people's hearts through modeling and advertisements, she did the famous video 'Tu Meri Mehbooba' for Sonu Nigam's album, 'Kismat'. In 2001, she started her film career with 'Ajnabee' followed by Vikram Bhatt's 'Raaz' (2002) opposite Dino Morea in which her portrayal was greatly appreciated. In the same year she acted in a Telugu Movie, 'Takkari Donga', opposite Mahesh Babu.
