| Priya Gil |
Priya Gill was born on December 9, 1977. She began her Bollywood career with the ABCL production Tere Mere Sapne (1996) along with Arshad Warsi and Chandrachur Singh. She was known more for her Indian appeal and simple girl-next-door looks. Her performance was applauded in the movie Sirf Tum which was one of the highest grossing films of the year 1999.
She worked with some of the top heroes of that time like Shahrukh Khan in Josh and Suniel Shetty. She is remembered for her portrayal of a naive South Indian Brahmin girl in Tere mere Sapne (1996), a smart witty waitress in Bade Dilwala (1999) and a Goan Catholic violinist in Josh (2000). She comes from a Punjabi Jatt Sikh family.

To revive her sagging career, she is trying her luck down in south. The producers of hit Tamil films like Citizen and Mugavari has signed Priya to play the female lead opposite the handsome Ajith in their latest yet-to-be-titled film. From whatever little has been revealed, Priya plays the tomboyish girlfriend of Ajith. The film, being directed by debutant director Ram Satya, also sees the comeback of Salim Ghouse who was once popular as a villain in Tamil films. Others in the credits include Rajan P. Dev, Raghuvaran and Srividya.
Her other hindi movies are Bade Dilwala, Jeetenge Hum, Shyam Ghanshyam, Sirf Tum and Josh.
She is in Harbhajan Mann’s Bhangra-Pop singer debut film Jee Aayon Noo. Renowned cinematographer Manmohan Singh will wield the megaphone for the film, while music director Jaidev Kumar will compose its songs. A great part of the film has already been canned and shooting for the remaining part is presently going on in Canada. The film is expected to hit the marquee by this year-end.
