From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Moushmi Chatterji (Bengali: মৌসুমি চ্যাটার্জী) is an Indian actress. She is from West Bengal, a state in eastern India. She is daughter-in-law of the famous singer late Hemant Kumar.

She was introduced to movies in 1967, with the Bengali movie Balika Badhu. She started to act in movies after her marriage, which was quite unusual for women at that time.

She was on the top of her career in the 70's and early 80's, when she used to star opposite heroes as Amitabh Bachchan, Jitendra, Dharmendra etc. She received Filmfare nominations as Best Actress for Anuraag (1972) where she played a blind girl, and as Best Supporting Actress for Roti Kapda Aur Makaan (1974), where she played a rape survivor. She still acts in movies, but not at the same pace as earlier. She acted with her youngest daughter, Megha, in her debut movie, a Bengali film titled Bhalo Bashar Onek Naam directed by Tarun Majumdar the same person who directed Chatterji's very first movie, Balika Badhu.
