Early life

Sharma [a] was born in Mumbai. [6] [7] Her father S. L. Sharma (d. 2014), [8] a Tamil, hailed from Madurai, Tamil Nadu and was a captain in the Indian Merchant Navy. [4] Her mother Sheila Sharma, a Malayali and native of Nattupura, Palakkad, Kerala, is an Indian classical dancer and mallakhamba yoga practitioner. [4] [9] [7]

Sharma studied at Auxilium Convent High School, Bandra. [10] When she was in tenth grade, she had decided that she wanted to become an actress[ citation needed ]. She wanted to drop out of school but her parents insisted that she should complete her schooling at least. [11] After completing her twelfth grade, she stopped studying. [12]

Sharma is a gymnast. [13] She has been dancing since the age of three, and has completed her graduation in Kathak from the Natraj Gopi Krishna Kathak Dance Academy in Mumbai. [14] [15] She had learnt salsa for four months in the US, besides jazz and ballet, and has claimed to be "very good" at belly dancing. [11] She is also a practitioner of Silambam, an Indian weapon-based martial art. [16]

Sharma has lived in her Pali Hill house all her life, as she preferred to live close to nature surrounded by trees. [17] In June 2024, she moved to a sea-facing building Mont Blanc in Mumbai which had previously been occupied by Sushant Singh Rajput. [18]

Apart from her mother tongue Tamil, Sharma can speak in Marathi and Hindi, as she was born and brought up in Mumbai. [6]

Career

Trying to break into the film industry, Sharma auditioned for several roles, but was rejected either because of her curly hair or because the casting directors felt that she looked too young. [19] She eventually landed the lead female role in the 2008 Hindi horror film 1920 opposite Rajneesh Duggal which was directed by Vikram Bhatt. Her portrayal of a possessed woman was unanimously praised by critics. The Times of India 's Nikhat Kazmi commented that she "delivers a consummate performance", [3] and labelled her performance as "excellent", [2] "[exceptionally] brilliant", [20] [21] and "incredibly convincing". [22] The film was a commercial success, Bhatt's first box office hit after six years and 10 films, [23] and earned Sharma a Best Female Debut nomination at the 54th Filmfare Awards. Three years later, she had her next release, Phhir , again a horror film, which saw her collaborating with Vikram Bhatt, who wrote the film, and her, 1920 co-star Rajneesh Duggal. Phhir, however, was not as well received as, 1920, opening to negative reviews, [24] [25] [26] [27] and failing at the box office, [28] [29] with Sharma getting mixed response for her performance. While Sujata Chakrabarti wrote that "not even for a minute does she exude the intensity of being a psychic", [30] Sify's Sonia Chopra stated that she was "the only one in the film who can act". [26] Her third film, the romantic comedy Hum Hai Raahi Car Ke , released another two years later and was a critical and financial failure. [31] [32]

In 2014, Sharma had two releases: Puri Jagannadh's romance Heart Attack opposite Nithiin, that marked her Telugu debut and a Hindi film Hasee Toh Phasee alongside Sidharth Malhotra and Parineeti Chopra, which released seven days later and featured her in a supporting role. [33] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama stated, "Adah Sharma is a natural. One strongly feels she hasn't got her due, despite leaving an impression in every film she's featured in." [34] She described her character in the former as "vulnerable, yet extremely sexy" and worked for two months on her Telugu diction. [15] Sharma received positive remarks for her performance in Heart Attack, with The Times of India writing that she "looks like a natural actress and does a decent job" while 123telugu.com felt that she had made a "stunning debut". [35] Both films were commercially successful, [36] with Hasee To Phasee ending up as one of the highest-grossing Hindi films of 2014. [37]

Her next two films, the Telugu family drama S/O Satyamurthy , in which she was cast opposite Allu Arjun and Samantha Ruth Prabhu, and was directed by Trivikram Srinivas, and the Pavan Wadeyar's action thriller Rana Vikrama , [38] alongside Puneeth Rajkumar and Anjali, her first Kannada project, released on consecutive days in April 2015. [39] Both films were financial successes as well, [40] [41] with the former, having collected over ₹ 80 crore, emerging as one of the highest-grossing Telugu films of all time, in spite of receiving mixed reviews from critics. [42] For her next film, she was paired opposite Sai Dharam Tej in Subramanyam for Sale , a Telugu romantic comedy. Directed by Harish Shankar, the film proved to be a moderate success, and Sharma received good reviews for her performance. [36] At the 5th edition of Indian Federation for Fashion Development's India Runway Week, Sharma dazzled in a beautiful lehenga as she walked the ramp for Shravan Kumar. The designer kept the collection region-specific and showcased the lesser known handlooms of the south. [43]

Sharma had three releases in February 2016, two of which were in Telugu language. Her first film, the romantic comedy Garam was directed by Madan and she was cast as the love interest of the character played by Aadi. Her next film was the acclaimed thriller Kshanam where she played the central role of Swetha, who seeks help from her ex-boyfriend (Adivi Sesh). Her final release of the year was the romantic comedy Idhu Namma Aalu , her first Tamil film, in which she had a small role and also performed an item number on the song "King Kong", which topped the charts in South India and her dance moves as well as pairing with Silambarasan was praised. [36] [44] Her next release was the thriller Commando 2 , a sequel to the 2013 film Commando: A One Man Army , where she plays the female lead role of an inspector opposite Vidyut Jammwal. Commercially, the film was an average-grosser. [45] [46] In 2020, she played the role of a transgender woman in a MX Player webseries titled Pati Patni Aur Panga. [47]

In 2023, she starred in the lead role in The Kerala Story , in which she played the role of Shalini Unnikrishnan/Fathima Ba, who was radicalized and converted to Islam and eventually joining the terrorist organization ISIS. [48] Anuj Kumar of The Hindu noted, "Adah Sharma delivers an earnest performance and captures the pain of the vulnerable Shalini who is robbed of her innocence but retains her spine." [49] The film became the ninth-highest-grossing Hindi film of 2023. Though her next project Bastar: The Naxal Story (2024), also by the makers of The Kerala Story, was not well received. [50]

In an interview to NDTV, Sharma shared her views on pervasive nepotism in the film industry calling it "a huge rock wall" which sometimes an outsider gets through, by finding small cracks. She called The Kerala Story one such crack that bagged her huge success. [51]

Controversy

in February 2022 following the death of Bappi Lahiri, Sharma made a controversial post on her dressed as Lahiri. [52] in 2024, Sharma faced backlash for moving to an apartment of Sushant Singh Rapjut who died in 2020. [53] [54] [55]

The Kerala Story is a 2023 Indian Hindi-language Fictional and Thriller drama film directed by Sudipto Sen and produced by Vipul Amrutlal Shah. It stars Adah Sharma, Yogita Bihani, Sonia Balani, and Siddhi Idnani. The plot follows a group of women from Kerala who are coerced into converting to Islam and joining the Islamic State. Marketed as a true story, the film is premised on the Hindutva conspiracy theory of "love jihad", and claims that thousands of Hindu women from Kerala have been converted to Islam and recruited in the Islamic State. However, the filmmakers had to accept the addition of two disclaimers — that the figures in the film were inauthentic, and that the film was a "fictionalised" depiction of their minds.
