Education

Family

Amrita Rao’s father owns an advertising agency. Amrita Rao is married to Anmol Sood popularly known as RJ Anmol. Amrita Rao and Anmol Sood said they married in a private ceremony in 2014.

This was done to ensure that Amrita’s career was not jeopardized by the wedding news. However, Amrita Rao and RJ Anmol made their wedding public on the date 15 May 2016.

It was their mutual decision to keep the marriage date a secret. Amrita and Anmol also have a boy.

Boyfriends

Actress Amrita Rao and her husband Radio Jockey Anmol the couple claimed that they wed in 2014 in a private ceremony but made their wedding public on the date 15 May 2016.

You’ve probably seen a lot of RJs interviewing Bollywood stars up to this point but have you ever heard of the relationship between an RJ and an actress? Your response will most likely be ‘no’ because it is typically thought to be extremely unlikely to occur in Bollywood.

Amrita Rao the ‘Vivaah’ girl and RJ Anmol’s love story on the other hand are completely the reverse of this and appear to be very intriguing. The first time Amrita and Anmol met was in a radio studio about 14 years ago in the year 2008.

Although Anmol did not question Amrita during their initial meeting he made sure to obtain her contact number through any method possible. Anmol was similarly successful in this quest and was able to get Amrita’s contact number during their very first encounter. However, following their initial meeting, none of them spoke to the other for a year because they were both so preoccupied with their different work lives.

However it is considered that God himself created some couples which is why they were connected to one another in some way. The same thing happened to Amrita and Anmol when they met again owing to some work obligations and subsequently, they both began dating. Anmol claimed that Amrita had a very kind and affable character which was the major reason he admired her so much and fell in love with her. In reality, Amrita and Anmol did not even disclose their connection to anyone and kept it hidden from the public for close to seven years.

They recently welcomed a newborn boy and are currently both content to be married to each other. RJ Anmol and Amrita Rao desire to keep their romance private. The couple prefers to keep their private lives out of the public eye whether it be their wedding or Amrita Rao’s pregnancy. The audience was startled by their wedding announcement in 2016 and then by reports of their pregnancy in 2020 when Amrita was nine months pregnant.

Movies

Amrita Rao started modelling for certain advertisements in addition to her college education. Raj Kumar Santoshi saw her in a Perk advertisement and approached her about a role but she declined since she wanted to focus on her education.

However, the director was too kind to give her another part in the film The Legend of Bhagat Singh claiming that it would only take 5 days to shoot because the part was so brief to which Amrita quickly consented. After completing her studies she made her acting debut in the 2002 film Ab Ke Baras which was released prior to The Legend of Bhagat Singh. The movie was not successful. But Ishq Vishk written by Ken Ghosh made her a star in 2003.

In the film, Amrita Rao starred opposite Shahid Kapoor. She made appearances in popular films like Main Hoon Na and Masti in 2004. In 2005 the films Shikhar and Vaah! Life Ho To Aisi which starred Shahid Kapoor were both box office duds. However, she made a comeback in the 2006 Shahid Kapoor romantic drama Vivah which was directed by Sooraj Barjatya.

The box office performance of her films My Name is Anthony Gonsalves (2008) Victory (2009) Shortcut (2009) and Love U…Mr. Kalakaar! (2011) was all awful. Amrita Rao later made an appearance in Jolly LLB a movie that won a National Award (2013).

Controversies

Amrita Rao – Shahid Kapoor

The latter slapped the former in a fit of rage. ‘Yes I slapped Amrita ’ Esha Deol said.

She abused me in front of my director Indra Kumar and my cameraman one day after pack-up which I thought was completely inappropriate. In the heat of the moment, I slapped her to protect my self-respect and dignity. I have no regrets because she deserved it for her behaviour toward me at the time. All I did was stand up for myself and my dignity.
