While the film failed to ignite the box office, its music, especially the title track, became cult and continues to give rise to nostalgia even now. Her bold presence on screen quickly made her an icon of the youths of the 2000s, a household name in a short time. With a successful start of her career, she became a leading figure in the profession, a bold and confident performer.

Some performers excel in Bollywood and leave an indelible mark in a brief while and Tanushree Dutta is one of them. With her breathtaking beauty and glamorous image, she shot to fame overnight with her 2005 entry into Aashiq Banaya Aapne opposite Emraan Hashmi. Although the movie didn’t light up the box office, its music particularly its title track became cult-like and induces nostalgia even today. Her fearless screen presence soon established her as an icon of the 2000s youth.

After her debut, Tanushree acted in Chocolate in the same year, which flopped. In 2006, she appeared in Bhaagam Bhag her first commercial success along with Akshay Kumar and Govinda. She also appeared in 36 China Town during the same year, another multi-starrer which wasn’t commercially successful.

In 2007, she had four group films Risk, Good Boy Bad Boy, Dhol, and Speed none of which made an impact at the box office. Her sole 2008 release, Saas Bahu Aur Sensex, went unnoticed. By 2010, after a couple of more ventures, she left the spotlight.

Tanushree subsequently stated she experienced extreme depression and trauma, attributing disillusionment with the film industry as the main factor for her departure. To recover, she relocated to the United States, became spiritual, practiced Vipassana meditation, and concentrated on holistic healing. These practices, she explained, gave her inner peace and allowed her to rediscover her purpose.
