Mahek Chahal Biography Mahek Chahal is a 24-year-old Norwegian model of Indian origin. Although Mahek comes from a Punjabi family (that migrated to Norway), she considers herself a full-bloodied Norwegian.
She speaks Norwegian, and also “think in Norwegian”. She studied in a Norwegian-medium school. She had been doing modeling and dance shows in various countries around the world before she gave Bollywood a shot.
Mahek’s linguistic shortcoming became a problem when she was considered for a role in Ajnabee , two years back. However, she was able to get a Telugu movie titled Neetho, but the director had to get her dialogues dubbed.
Mahek quickly learned from her shortcomings and joined Kishore Namit's acting school in Mumbai, which has groomed newcomers Hrithik Roshan and former beauty queens Priyanka Chopra and Dia Mirza.
A spruced up Mahek made her Bollywood debut last year with a marginal role in a forgettable flick Nayee Padosan. She also did an item number in Kareena Kapoor starrer Chameli.
Mahek has finally broken ice in Bollywood with two films to start her career. The first is director Raj Kaushal’s ‘Two’ and the other is director Hansal Mehta’s ‘Strangers’.
