A journey from a Bharatnatyam dancer to getting the lead role in Bollywood movies.
Born in Hyderabad, Aditi Rao Hydari is a big name in B-Town. From working with Randeep Hooda to working with Amitabh Bachchan , Hydari was seen in so many films. But she has witnessed some miserable things from childhood.
She has not just worked in Bollywood movies but also in many Tamil and Telugu films like Prajapathi and more. She is one of the most beautiful and talented South Indian actresses . Aditi was a part of some controversies earlier and people even blamed her for Farhan Akhtar’s divorce.
Regarding ethnicity, Aditi is of mixed lineage as her mother is a Hindu and her father is Muslim. Besides acting, Aditi also learned Bharatnatyam from her childhood and completed her Bachelors’s from a well-known college at Delhi University.
Aditi Rao Hydari- Early Life Aditi Rao Hydari, the single child of Ehsaan Hydari and Vidya Rao was born in Hyderabad. Her parents separated when she was just 2 years old and her mother took her responsibility and moved to Delhi. Furthermore, she filed a case against Ehsaan for her custody. Meanwhile, Aditi suffered so much and was never able to make a good bond with her father.
Then her mother sent her to a boarding school. After a few years of divorce, Ehsaan Hydari remarried but Vidya never remarried anyone and focused on her goal. During an interview, Aditi was asked the reason behind using both surnames. She said “I wanted to keep both, as my mom has brought me up, but my father is also a part of me. Hydari is a rare name so I kept both Rao and Hydari.”
Via some sources, Paparizzis inform that Aditi is married to Satyadeep Mishra , a lawyer, and an actor. But when she was asked about this, she refused to reveal the truth. In 2013, she was again asked about him. Hydari disclosed, “Yes, I got married at 21 to Satyadeep, a civil servant and lawyer who gave it up to become an actor. He is a natural actor and is in fact playing the second lead with Emraan Hashmi in Danis Tanovic’s next.”
“I met him when I was 17 and that was my only serious relationship. It broke my heart when we separated, but only the name of the relationship collapsed as we are friends and are still close. For his mother, I am a daughter and for my mother, he will always remain a son. He is much older than me and always teases me about being his child who he cannot get rid of. Coincidentally, Murder 3 was about a girl picking up her life that I could relate to with my own life.”

Aditi Rao Hydari-Family Aditi’s father who died in 2013 was a Sulaimani Bohra Muslim. On the other side, her mother was a Hindu, born in Mangalore but then started practising Buddhism. Both of her parents belonged to a noble class and her father, Ehsaan Hydari Rao was the grandson of the former prime minister of Hyderabad state, Akbar Hydari, and nephew of Muhammad Saleh Akbar Hydari, a former governor of Assam.
However, her mother is a classical singer, famously known for Thumri and Dandra, she has also written a book on the late Naina Devi. She is the daughter of J. Rameshwar Rao, the last raja of Wanaparthy. In the middle of an interview, she was asked about her father wanting her custody. She calmly said “My father was just angry at the fact that my mother had the courage to leave and look after me and succeed. He loved me but felt that he needed to prove something. At one point in school, my mother called me to say that my father had filed a petition in court to take me to Germany for a holiday. I started bawling as I wanted to spend my holidays only with her. “
“And I asked her if I could go to court and say that. She agreed. So, I went to court and was alone with the judge who tried to emotionally pressurise me in favour of my father, telling me how my father claimed that my mother had brainwashed me against him. In reality, my mother had never told me anything about my father and in fact, had encouraged me to meet him. My father came to meet me in school and I told him, ‘Baba, the reason I don’t want to meet you is because you keep bringing up things that are long past gone even though mom never speaks about you’. Ego and love go hand in hand and sometimes I feel he still loves my mother as I am a carbon copy of her.”

I actually find it entertaining.”
Aditi Rao Hydari Shared Her Views On Nepotism During an interview with the Times of India , Aditi Rao was asked to share her views on Nepotism. She said “It’s very factual. In any industry, forget the film industry. If you belong to a family that has a connection with that industry, of course, your opportunities are going to be more and easier. But I look at it very factually, I don’t resent it. How can I fault somebody for what they are born into, that’s not fair. But I feel people with power also need to use that power responsibility.”
