With the success of Saiyaara bringing director Mohit Suri back into the limelight, there is renewed interest in his personal life—particularly in his wife, Udita Goswami. Once a familiar face in mainstream Hindi cinema, Goswami has since chosen a quieter life away from the camera, while still maintaining ties to the film industry through family and creative pursuits.
Born in Dehradun, Udita Goswami attended Cambrian Hall and D.A.V. Public School before venturing into modeling. Her entry into the entertainment industry began with music videos, notably the remix of Kya Khoob Lagti Ho featuring Upen Patel. She soon transitioned to films, making her debut in 2003 with Paap, the first directorial project of Pooja Bhatt, opposite John Abraham.
Throughout the 2000s, Goswami became known for her screen presence and bold performances, particularly in collaborations with Emraan Hashmi. Her role in Zeher (2005), paired with the enduring popularity of the song Agar Tum Mil Jao, brought her widespread recognition. She followed this with Aksar (2006), which featured the chart-topping Jhalak Dikhla Ja, further cementing her position in the Bollywood pop culture of the decade.
In addition to these highlights, she acted in a number of other films including Aggar, Kisse Pyaar Karoon, Fox, Chase, Rokkk, and Mere Dost Picture Abhi Baki Hai. Her last appearance was in Diary of a Butterfly in 2012, after which she gradually stepped away from acting.
In 2013, Goswami married filmmaker Mohit Suri after a period of courtship. The couple has two children—a daughter, Devi, born in 2015, and a son, Karrma, born in 2018. Though no longer active in films, Goswami continues to pursue music professionally, listing herself as a DJ on her social media accounts.
Her marriage further connects her to the Bhatt family, one of the most influential lineages in Hindi cinema. Through Suri, she is linked to Pooja Bhatt and Alia Bhatt, while Emraan Hashmi is her brother-in-law. These ties place her in proximity to the creative core of the industry, even as she maintains a lower profile.
In recent years, the resurgence of Mohit Suri’s directorial projects has drawn some attention back to Goswami, but she remains largely focused on her personal life and music interests. Her journey from on-screen star to behind-the-scenes presence reflects a deliberate and balanced transition—away from constant visibility, but not away from relevance.
