Debut and breakthrough (1996–2000)

After her reign as Miss Universe, Sen ventured into the Hindi film industry. Her first film was in 1996, the thriller Dastak, in which she played the victim of a stalker, played by Sharad Kapoor.[21] She then starred in the 1997 Tamil action film Ratchagan, opposite Nagarjuna.[22] It was the most expensive Indian film at the time of its release.[23] In 1998, she played a low-profile reporter opposite Sunny Deol in Zor, a box office failure.[24]

In 1999, Sen earned wider recognition with her portrayal of Rupali Walia in David Dhawan's comedy film Biwi No.1, alongside Salman Khan and Karisma Kapoor. It received positive reviews from critics and emerged as the second highest-grossing movie of 1999.[25] Syed Firdaus Ashraf of Rediff.com noted, "Sen has tried hard to make a mark in a different role, but her role itself isn't worth remembering." She won the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in the film.[26] The same year, she received a second nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance as Aarti in the romantic drama Sirf Tum. For this performance, Sharmila Taliculam of Rediff.com termed her the, "star of the film".[27] Her last film of the year was Hindustan Ki Kasam opposite Ajay Devgn. The film was an average grosser, despite taking a bumper opening.[28]

Her only film in 2000, Aaghaaz saw her playing a police officer, opposite Suniel Shetty. Anjali Abrol of Planet Bollywood stated that Sen did "decently well" in her role.[29]

Career progression (2001–2005)

In 2001, she first appeared opposite Govinda in the fantasy comedy Kyo Kii... Main Jhuth Nahin Bolta.[30] Her second film of the year, Bas Itna Sa Khwaab Hai, was a disaster at the box office.[31]

Sen received critical acclaim for her roles in 2002. Her first film of the year Aankhen saw her play a teacher, opposite Arjun Rampal and Akshay Kumar, was a critical success and the second-highest-grossing film of 2002.[32] [33] Priya Ganapati of Rediff.com noted, "Sushmita Sen's role of Neha deserves an extra round of applause. Neha doesn't need a man to exist. She is intelligent and capable, even during the climax."[34] She next appeared in the action thriller Tumko Na Bhool Paayenge opposite Salman Khan.[35] In her final film of the year, Sen portrayed a surrogate mother in the romantic film Filhaal..., opposite Palash Sen. Radhika Rajamani of Idlebrain opined, "The sterling performance (best up to date) of Sushmita Sen endears." BBC noted, "Sushmita Sen, is the sparkling character of the film. She adds the lighter moments with sheer panache. In my books, she is a real gem!"[36] [37] Her performance in the film earned her a third nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress.

Sen played a widowed cop in her only film of 2003, the acclaimed thriller film, .[38] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama noted, "Sushmita Sen, cast in a challenging role, does full justice to her part."[39]

Sen had three films in 2004. She first appeared in Vaastu Shastra, as a doctor opposite J. D. Chakravarthi.[40] Her career's biggest success came with the action masala film Main Hoon Na, in which she played the role of a chemistry teacher opposite Shah Rukh Khan. The film grossed a total of 330,000,000 and was the second highest-grossing film of that year.[41] [42] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama noted, "Sushmita Sen looks like a million bucks and her on-screen chemistry with SRK is fantastic. Her role doesn't really demand histrionics, but she carries it off stylishly."[43] In her last film of the year, she appeared alongside Manisha Koirala in Paisa Vasool.[44]

Sen received further success with her two films of 2005. She first portrayed a dutiful nurse in her third film with Salman Khan, the romantic comedy Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya?. It emerged as the fifth-highest-grossing film of the year.[45] Sukanya Verma of Rediff.com stated, "Sen as Naina looks hot, talks sense and acts super. Her intelligence doesn't interfere with the absurdity of her surroundings. It only makes it more convincing."[46] Later the year, she portrayed a lawyer in Main Aisa Hi Hoon opposite Ajay Devgan. BBC said that Sen "shines" in her performances as innocent client and well-meaning lawyer.[47]

Career fluctuations (2006–2011)

Sen had two releases in 2006. She first played a prostitute with a child in Chingaari opposite Anuj Sawhney. Priyanka Jain of Rediff.com noted, "Sushmita puts in a mind-blowing performance. It's her film through and through. She is the only possible reason to watch this film."[48] She then played a rockstar Kriya in the musical film Zindaggi Rocks, opposite Shiney Ahuja.[49]

In 2007, she played a widow in the action drama film Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag, opposite Prashant Raj Sachdev.[50] It is considered as one of the worst films ever made.[51] In 2009, Sen first appeared in the critical failure drama film Karma Aur Holi opposite Randeep Hooda.[52] She then appeared opposite Govinda in the comedy film Do Knot Disturb.[53]

Post a hiatus of five years, Sen made her web debut in 2020 with Disney+ Hotstar's crime thriller Aarya. She played a mafia queen opposite Chandrachur Singh.[60] [61] Udita Jhunjhunwala of Firstpost noted, "Sen holds the series together. As the unsuspecting inheritor of a shady consignment, she literally and figuratively towers over everyone else. This meaty role allows her space to express herself." Sen received the award for Best Actress – Female, at the 2020 Filmfare OTT Awards.[62] Sen then reprised her role in the second season of the series in 2022.[63] [64] Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV noted, "Sushmita Sen carries on from where she left off in Season 1.
