Movie career

Anubhav Mohanty started his career by first appearing in Odia music videos before debuting in the Odia cinema in the 2004 film I Love You opposite Namrata Thapa. He had two other releases the same year, Saathire and "Barsha My Darling". Afterwards, a number of his films such as Nei Jare Megha Mote (2008), Suna Chadhei Mo Rupa Chadhei (2009), Akashe Ki Ranga Lagila (2009), Abhimanyu (2009), Ama Bhitare Kichhi Achhi (2010), Diwana (2010), Kiese Dakuchhi Kouthi Mate (2011), Balunga Toka (2011), Something Something (2012), Matric Fail (2012), ACP Ranveer (2012), Mo Duniya Tu Hi Tu (2013), Haata Dhari Chaaluthaa (2013), Kehi Jane Bhala Lagere (2013), Something Something 2 (2014), Gapa Hele bi Sata (2015), Agastya (2016), Abhaya (2017), Kabula Barabula (2017), (2018) were commercially successful.

In 2012, after the success of Balunga Toka, he created his own production house named Vishnupriyaa Arts & Graphics. The movie Something Something was the biggest hit of 2012. Anubhav made his debut in the Bengali film industry with the movie Saathi Amaar opposite Rachana Banerjee in a special appearance.[5] [6] In 2019, Anubhav Mohanty starred in his most expensive Odia movie Biju Babu directed by Nila Madhab Panda,[7] which didn't do well as expected at the box office due to some political controversy .

Political career

On 27 April 2013, he joined the regional political party BJD.[8] He was elected to Rajya Sabha uncontested in June 2014 and is the youngest parliamentarian of Rajyasabha.[9] On 23 May 2019, he was elected as the Member of Parliament from Kendrapara (Lok Sabha constituency) by beating the previously elected Baijayant Panda.[10]
