Anu’s innocent face was her trade mark. Anu Agarwal made her debut in Bollywood Hindi film in Mahesh Bhatt’s Ashique. After the release of the film Anu Agarwal and Rahul Roy reached the top of fame. The tragedy is that both Rahul and Anu could failed to utilize the success of their first film. So far as Anu Agarwal is concerned, she took wrong decision in selection of films afterwards and one after another flop pushed her in backward direction. Anu’s own lifestyle was also responsible for her flop in the industry. May be the educated actress made so many mistakes that she is now living like a common woman.

Mamta Kulkarni

 
Mamta Kulkarni Then
