Kalki Koechlin is an Indian actress and writer born on 10 January 1984 in Pondicherry to French parents, an unconventional star who has always favoured bold, boundary-pushing work. She made an arresting Hindi debut as the sex worker Chanda in Anurag Kashyap’s Dev.D (2009), winning a Filmfare Best Supporting Actress award.
She balanced mainstream ensembles like Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani with fearless independent films, most notably her National Award-honoured lead as a young woman with cerebral palsy in Margarita with a Straw. She also writes and performs for theatre.
Articulate and daring, she has carved out a career unlike anyone else’s in Hindi cinema.
