Nandana Dev Sen is an Indian-born American[2] actress, screenwriter, children's author and child-rights activist.[3][4] Her first film role in Bollywood was Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Black (2005), starring Amitabh Bachchan and Rani Mukherjee, in which she played the role of Rani's 17-year-old younger sister.

After teaming up on a succession of projects with Indian directors including Ram Gopal Varma and Ketan Mehta, Sen signed for one of the principal roles in the jarring, terrorist-themed American drama The War Within (2005), which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival[5] and, in the process,[6] began to cultivate a reputation for being drawn to offbeat, challenging and demanding roles, often with a social or political theme.[7]
