 Daughter
of actress Moon
Moon Sen and the granddaughter of legendary
actress Suchitra
Sen, Raima Sen clearly proves that there is more
to the city of Calcutta than just football and food.
Raima made her acting debut in the film God Mother and
was showered with lot of critical praise. Her
breakthrough role however came when she starred in the Rituparno
Ghosh's film Chokher
Bali. She won much praise for her role as the
simple, submissive Ashalata. After a few more average
movies she had a critically acclaimed hit in 2005
with Parineeta,
where she played the younger cousin of the film's
heroine, played by the debutante Vidya
Balan. Since then she has had two more hits with the
action thriller Dus
and the Bengali film Antar
Mahal.
Raima's public profile and image is much lower-key
and more demure than that of her sister Riya
who has been compared more to their
mother. Raima is also said to resemble her
grandmother much more than either her mother or her
sister..
Journalists who meet her describe her as easy to talk
to, and devoid of starry airs.
Raima was last seen in the film Eklavaya. Her
forthcoming films include Manorama
Six Feet Under where she teams up with Abhay Deol.
