Divya Khosla

Divya Khosla started her career with ad films for Reliance and Dermicool powder in the year 2003. She then appeared in Garba Queen Falguni Pathak’s music video and went on to feature in Abhijeet’s album and also in a song along with Salman Khan. The latter two albums were produced by T-Series.

Divya Khosla’s break in Bollywood came in the form of the multi starrer ‘Ab Tumhare Hawaale Watan Saathiyon’ in 2004 where she was paired opposite Akshay Kumar & Bobby Deol.

She kept a low profile after her marriage to T-Series head honcho Bhushan Kumar in 2005. After having trained herself in cinematography, editing and direction for 2 years. Divya Khosla Kumar resurfaced this year by directing an anti-piracy video featuring Manini De and started directing music videos in Agam Kumar Nigam’s album ‘Phir Bewafaai’ where she has directed the videos ‘Woh Kisi Aur Se’ and ‘Ishq Na Karna’ which also featured Hannsikaa Motwani. The album ‘Phir Bewafaai’ has gone on to become a big hit and the videos have garnered a lot of appreciation.

Next in line she is directing Mr. Pankaj Udhas’ album which she plans to shoot in Delhi as it provides beautiful locations. Being from Delhi she feels that Delhi models have a lot of potential, but as there are hardly any production houses in Delhi. Most of them either move to Mumbai or they just do print work in Delhi. Thus she plans to select upcoming actors for Mr. Pankaj Udhas’s video from Delhi itself, thus giving them a launch pad and making it easier for them to carve their niche in the media field. Currently she is working on various other projects.

After featuring in a music video, to now directing them, life has come full circle for this petite lovely lady.
