Summary
- Raageshwari starred in the film Aankhen at age 16.
- She was diagnosed with Bell's palsy at 25, paralyzing her face.
- She reinvented herself as a mindfulness coach and author.
Raageshwari, a prominent figure in 90s Indian pop culture, began her career at 16 with a role in the film Aankhen. She quickly rose to fame as an MTV VJ and a successful pop artist, with her album Y2K - Saal Do Hazaar topping charts.
At the peak of her career, at age 25, Raageshwari was diagnosed with Bell's palsy, a condition that left the left side of her face paralyzed and speech slurred. This health crisis led her to withdraw from the public eye for four years.
During her recovery, she discovered the transformative power of physiotherapy and yoga, which not only aided her physical healing but also spiritual growth. This period marked a significant reinvention.
Now based in London, Raageshwari has rebuilt her identity as a mindfulness and manifestation coach. She shares her motivational insights through talks and writing, having also authored a book with Penguin India.
She married Sudhanshu Swaropp KC, a human rights lawyer, in 2014 at the age of 39. Raageshwari emphasizes a simple life, opting for public transport and walking her daughter to school daily, embodying a philosophy of peace and balance.
