 Known
in the industry as the 'Khallas girl', Isha Koppikar
shot to fame with her song number in Ram Gopal Verma's
movie Company. She is 5'7", tall,
beautiful and talented girl born in 1976. Isha's performance
in Company mezmerised movie goers.
She had actually started her glamour career with modelling.
Modelling assignments trickled in after she did a photo
shoot with 'Gautam Rajyadhyaksha' when she was still
in junior college. But that was just the beginning.
She had done modelling for 'Deepam sarees', 'Ponds',
'Camay', 'Rexona', 'Synergy', 'Coke', 'L'Oreal' and
'Tips & Toes'. She also did five or six ramp shows.
But in 1995 at the Miss India 1995 contest, she won
the "Miss Talent crown".
Coming from a family of academics, she first finish
her degree in Life Sciences in Ruia College, Mumbai.
After that her first film was in Tamil, En Swasa
Katre. She was cast opposite 'Arvind Swamy',
who was at the peak of his fame at that time. The film
got rave reviews and she was expected to be a big hit
in the south.
Though her work was in the South, her heart was set
on making a name for herself in Mumbai. She did small
roles in Fiza and Pyar, Ishq
aur Mohabbat. Some of the other movies that
released are Sanjay Gupta's multistarrer Kaante,
Plan with Dino Morea. But she got the
much wanted and needed break from Ram Gopal Verma. Her
item song "Khallas" became all the rage. She
is nominated as a villian for film Qayamat.
In Pinjar her performance was good
but any how film didn't work.
Today Ishaa Khoppikar has grown beyond being just a
sizzling item girl. Ishaa is now setting to sink her
teeth into some really challenging roles in her forthcoming
films Inteqaam, Krishna Cottage,
Humraahi and Raakh.
In all of these she is coming in lead roles.
These days Ishaa is suddenly splashed all over media
because of her new film Girlfriend she
had signed. Its not a story of a normal relationship
its all about lesbian relationship.
