Back in 2008, a film not only brought the world of cricket betting to the big screen, but also introduced a fresh face who stole millions of hearts—Sonal Chauhan.
With her debut film Jannat opposite Emraan Hashmi, Sonal became an overnight sensation—and earned the title of ‘Jannat Girl’, a tag that still follows her today.
Before entering films, Sonal started out as a model. She won the Miss World Tourism 2005 title—becoming the first Indian to achieve it!
She made her first on-screen appearance in Himesh Reshammiya’s music video ‘Samjho Na’, where her innocence and charm instantly grabbed attention.
Released on May 16, 2008, Jannat became a turning point. Sonal's girl-next-door vibe and on-screen chemistry with Emraan Hashmi won hearts.
After making her mark in Bollywood, Sonal took on lead roles in South Indian films like ‘Legend’, ‘Dictator’, and ‘The Ghost’—earning praise across industries.
In 2023, Sonal appeared in the big-budget mythological film Adipurush as ‘Mandodari’. While the film had mixed reviews, her screen presence was widely noted.
Just recently, she posted pictures cheering for Mumbai Indians on April 21. Fans couldn’t stop admiring her effortless style and charm.
