Shraddha Kapoor’s Journey From Boston to Bollywood

Shraddha studied psychology at Boston University but dropped out when she was offered her debut film Teen Patti (2009), which starred Amitabh Bachchan and Ben Kingsley.

She is now a co-founder of Palmonas, a retail luxury goods and jewellery brand she joined last year. Her LinkedIn profile also lists her as a self-employed actor since 2009. Shraddha was last seen in the blockbuster Stree 2, the highest-grossing Hindi film in India this year. Before that, she starred in the romantic comedy Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, which was also a box office hit. Shraddha Kapoor Recreates Little Girl's Viral Eyeliner Moment at Meta Event, Video Takes the Internet by Storm – WATCH.
