Early Life
Sen was born into a Bengali family in Hyderabad. She has attended St. Ann's High School in Secunderabad, but did not pursue higher education.
Sen was born to Shuber Sen, a former Indian Air Force Wing Commander, and Subhra Sen, a jewelry designer and owner of a Dubai-based store. She has two siblings, a sister named Neelam, who is married to Nauman Malik, and a brother named Rajeev.
Often known as the most stylish and glamorous lady of India, Sushmita Sen made history by adopting a baby girl named Renée in 2000. She, as a single woman of only 25 years of age, was not viewed as socially acceptable to obtain the guardianship of the baby. However, the High Court of India quashed the appeal and she obtained gain of cause. On 13 Jan, 2010 she adopted a three-month-old girl and named her Alisah.
Sushmita had been going steady with Rajat Tara but broke off with him after she won the Miss Universe crown. She was said to be dating Mudassar Aziz whom she met in 2008 when she was shooting for his film Dulha Mil Gaya but started dating much later. They broke up in 2010. Sushmita Sen has also been linked to another Bollywood personality, Randeep Hooda. They had an ugly break-up in 2009 which impacted the running of film Karma Aur Holi.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“Although good early childhood programs can benefit all children, they are not a quick fix for all of society’s ills—from crime in the streets to adolescent pregnancy, from school failure to unemployment. We must emphasize that good quality early childhood programs can help change the social and educational outcomes for many children, but they are not a panacea; they cannot ameliorate the effects of all harmful social and psychological environments.”
—Barbara Bowman (20th century)
“Tomorrow in the offices the year on the stamps will be altered;
Tomorrow new diaries consulted, new calendars stand;
With such small adjustments life will again move forward
Implicating us all; and the voice of the living be heard:
“It is to us that you should turn your straying attention;
Us who need you, and are affected by your fortune;
Us you should love and to whom you should give your word.””
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
