Of late there seems to be quite a number of young actors and actresses moving over from Bihar to Bollywood, instead of the earlier ‘once in a while’ cases of actors like or Sekhar Suman. The list of prominent actresses from Bihar is even less, but is now getting boosted with the presence of the likes of Anurita Jha, who shot into instant fame with ’s “Gangs of Wasseypur” in both its versions. She comes with a decent educational background, having done her graduation from BITS, Pilani, one of the foremost technical institutes in the country. Notwithstanding her brilliance in academics, she could not hide her likings for the world of show business, getting into modeling quite early, probably to prepare herself for a career in film acting. She had launched her modeling career initially from Delhi, only to shift to Mumbai later on, going on ultimately to win the Ford Supermodel Contest first, and then a year later, to bag the Channel V Get Gorgeous 2006 contest as well. While it is still “early days” in the industry for Anurita, the waves she has created with only two appearances so far, has really made the audience look up to her for more to come. Her discovery by none other than Anurag Kashyap has really been a boon for her, and the success in rapid succession has done her career a whole lot of good. Her performance in the role of Shama Parveen has been analysed by many as one of the most significant debut performances of the year 2012, and they have labeled her as a fresh young actress, literally oozing with talent. Looking back on how things developed so rapidly for her, Anurita confesses that though she did not have any formal prior exposure to acting, the workshops that Anurag Kashyap himself organized during the making of the film helped her a lot. Looking beyond the “Wasseypur” horizon Anurita admits that she has been approached with different offers and she has gone through the scripts of some of them, but she would like to be tight-lipped till things get frozen. But both outwardly and inwardly she seems to be having a quiet confidence about her abilities, and sooner rather than later, the industry would start hearing about her next exploits.
