MUMBAI: Pooja Bedi, known for her bold choices on and off-screen, entered the film world in 1991 with the film "Vishkanya," not with the popular belief of her debut in "Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar" alongside Aamir Khan in 1992. Despite her initial foray into films, it was her role in "Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar" that garnered her widespread recognition and popularity.

Her father, Kabir Bedi, a prominent figure in his own right, made headlines for his relationships and love life.
