Meet Aashiqui star Rahul Roy’s lesser known sibling Priyanka Roy, a former model turned Sadhvi | Hindi Movie News – Times of India

Rahul Roy, made his debut in the 1990 blockbuster Aashiqui, and soon, was seen in movies like Junoon, Phir Teri Kahani Yaad Aayee and others. However, after some years, he faded into oblivion and faced some health crisis too. It is now being reported that he will soon back a comeback in a Bengali movie.

However, not much has been known about Rahul’s personal life, but recently, his sister Priyanka Roy posted a pic with him from Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde’s Ganpati celebrations.

Sharing a pic with her actor brother, she wrote, “Gratitude to our Hon’ble Chief Minister of Maharashtra, #meeknathshinde Ram ram #harimaapriyanka #harimaa #cmmaharashtra #eknathshinde #chiefministerofmaharashtra.”
Not many however, know that Priyanka is a former model, who has now turned a Sadhvi, and is known by the name Hari Maa.
According to her YouTube bio, she is a Bhramacharini (celibate), ‘non-commercial mystic’, and a philosopher. Hari Maa is also trained in martial arts and dance and was a fitness trainer, too. Her bio reads ‘Animal is also a person’.
Reportedly, Rahul and Hari Maa are adopted siblings, but pretty close. Last year on Rakhi, Rahul Roy posted a note on her. He wrote, “Hari Maa welcome back Home @priyankaroy_pia. Happy Rakshabandhan’s Day. Thank you for accepting my stubbornness and my different lifestyle which I have been living in for past 57 years. You are not just a sister, but even a mother…I never support in any financial needs in any manner still you stand with me and run the entire house and all the people seamlessly.” He also posted a pic with her this year.

While on Rahul, along with his debut in Aashiqui, Anu Aggarwal, too made her dream debut, became an overnight sensation. However, a life-changing accident in 1999 led to her early departure from showbiz.

In a recent chat with Bollywood Bubble, Anu revealed she was paid more than co-star Rahul Roy and shared her views on pay disparity. For Aashiqui, Rahul Roy was paid Rs 30,000. The actress, however, received a significantly higher fee, amounting to lakhs. She mentioned that even before Aashiqui, she was earning more than her male counterparts in modeling. When the film came along, she quoted a modest fee, which was readily accepted, despite it being lower than her modeling earnings.

Anu discussed the current issue of pay disparity among actresses, noting that she never faced such challenges. She explained that today’s actresses often earn half or even less than their male counterparts, a mentality she finds problematic. Unlike many, Anu never had to confront this issue, as her work consistently demonstrated her worth, leading her to become the highest-paid model from her first job.
Her dedication ensured she received the compensation she asked for, long before these issues became widely acknowledged in society.
