Seema Pahwa, born 10 February 1962 in New Delhi, is kind of a legend in her own right. Honestly, if you haven’t seen her on screen, what are you even doing? She’s got this knack for sliding into roles like she was born for them—whether she’s making you laugh, tearing up, or, let’s be real, both at the same time. Her filmography is like a buffet of some of the best stuff Bollywood’s churned out in the last decade. Think “Bareilly Ki Barfi” (2017)—she played the mom everyone secretly wishes they had. Not overbearing, not a pushover, just spot-on with warmth and the right dash of sass. Then there’s “Shubh Mangal Saavdhan” (2017)—again, she somehow manages to steal the show without even trying. But it’s not just the acting. Seema took the big leap and jumped behind the camera too. “Ramprasad Ki Tehrvi” (2019) was her directorial debut and, man, did she deliver. It’s this beautifully messy family drama about grief, nostalgia, and the million tiny things that drive families nuts. The way she handled such a huge ensemble cast, all those personalities bouncing off each other, felt so authentic. You could almost smell the chai and hear the arguments in the background. She’s not just playing characters—she’s building worlds, and you get sucked right in. Seema Pahwa’s career? Pure gold, and honestly, she’s just getting started.
Seema Pahwa is married to actor Manoj Pahwa. Both of them are kind of legends in the Indian film and TV scene—if you’ve ever watched old-school Doordarshan or even those slice-of-life Bollywood movies, you’ve probably spotted one or both. Seema, with her killer comic timing and natural style, has built her own cult following. She’s not just “Manoj Pahwa’s wife,” by the way—she’s a heavyweight in her own right, acting in movies like “Bareilly Ki Barfi,” “Shubh Mangal Saavdhan,” and even directing “Ramprasad Ki Tehrvi.” The couple’s partnership is well-respected in the industry; people talk about their off-screen chemistry almost as much as their on-screen work. They’re a classic example of a power couple who’ve stayed grounded, even with all the Bollywood chaos swirling around them.
