Monica Bedi has led a controversial life, but now her imprisonment and affair with gangster Abu Salem are all behind her and she is living new innings in showbiz. On her birthday, here's a look at her journey...


Monica Bedi shared this throwback picture on Instagram and captioned it - "Perhaps not everyone is aware that I've been brought up in #Norway, sharing a treasured memory from my school in Drammen, Norway on this Children's Day.

Monica Bedi studied literature from Oxford University, United Kingdom. Simultaneously, she completed her acting education from Delhi University.

Monica Bedi started her career as an actress in Bollywood films during the mid-nineties. She was barely 20 when she first faced the camera.

Monica Bedi made her acting debut with Telugu film 'Taj Mahal' which was directed by the legendary D Rama Naidu. In the same year (1995), she made her Bollywood debut - Surakshaa, starring Suniel Shetty, Saif Ali Khan and Aditya Pancholi. However, the film fared poorly at the Box Office and Bedi hardly got any recognition for her role.
