With Bollywood films Vivaah and Welcome to Sajjanpur, Amrita Rao had established a girl-next-door image for herself. Skimpy outfits were a complete no for her. Until, of course, Anil Kapoor convinced her to change her image.
Amrita, who respects Anil Kapoor a lot is excited about her new look. She felt very comfortable donning Manish Malhotra creations. And why not, the entire unit would call her Amrita Wow!
Amrita Rao started her career as a model. After bagging the Cadbury's Perk Karwa Chaut advertisement and the Bru Coffee ad, she started getting Bollywood movie offers.
Amrita Rao made her acting debut in 2002 with the film Ab Ke Baras for which she won the Star Screen Award for the Most Promising Newcomer - Female. Her popular movies include Main Hoon Na and Sooraj R. Barjatya's Vivah opposite Shahid Kapoor. The promising actress has won the coveted Dadasaheb Phalke Academy Award for her performance in Vivaah.
