Film career
After graduating from the Film and Television Institute of India, Pune,[1] Anuya debuted in the Children's film Mahek, directed
by Kranti Kanade. The film was premiered at the London Film Festival and was critically acclaimed. It was nominated in
various categories including "Best Picture" at the WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival.[2] She had her major
breakthrough in her next film, Siva Manasula Sakthi (2009). Before the film's release, she narrowly escaped from a terror
attack while she was staying at a hotel in Mumbai. [3] The film, directed by a debutant, took eight months to complete and
was released to positive reviews.[1] Anuya next worked on a film titled Madurai Sambavam. The film was made on a small
budget and is set against the backdrop of Madurai. A reviewer from Sify wrote, "Anuya, in a deglamorised role as the fiendish
cop who falls for the rowdy is fantastic. She brings so much emotion and reality to her performance and is an actress of
substance". [4]
Anuya took a break from films to concentrate on dance during this period.[1] This helped her fetch a role in the film Nagaram
opposite Sundar C.[1] After making a cameo appearance in S. Shankar's Nanban, she said that she will not be doing any
such roles in future.[5] However, she followed with a special appearance in a promotional song in Naan (2012) and an item
number in Nanjupuram.[5]

Anuya is making her Bengali debut in a film titled Gora, based on a novel of the same name by Rabindranath Tagore.[6] As
of June 2012, she has completed shoot for the film.[6]
