# Amruta Khanvilkar filmography

Indian actress Amruta Khanvilkar primarily appears in Marathi and Hindi films. She began her career in 2004 as a contestant on the reality show India's Best Cinestars Ki Khoj and made her acting debut that same year in the FTII short film Saanjh. Khanvilkar made her film debut by playing the dual role in the Marathi-language film Golmaal (2006). The following year, she made her Bollywood debut with the drama Mumbai Salsa (2007), which had an average box office performance, but she gained major success with Ram Gopal Varma's supernatural horror film Phoonk. The comedy Saade Maade Teen (2007) and the big-budget thriller Gaiir (2009) were both huge commercial successes, with the former becoming one of the highest-grossing Marathi films of its time.
Khanvilkar received widespread attention for the song "Wajale Ki Bara" from the film Natarang (2010), due to the popularity of the song she performed at more than ten thousand events. In 2011, she featured as a teacher in the successful romantic drama Shala, portrayed a supportive girlfriend in the hit film Arjun and received critical acclaim for her role as a rural girl in the blockbuster romantic comedy Zhakaas, which also won her the MFK Award for Favourite Actress. In the following years, Khanvilkar played a dance therapist in the acclaimed drama Aayna Ka Bayna, a fearless girl in superhero drama Baji, a depressed girl in romantic drama Welcome Zindagi, and a Muslim artist in the musical Katyar Kaljat Ghusali, all of which were commercial successes. The latter most received her nominations at the Maharashtra State Film Awards and the Filmfare Awards Marathi. However, her subsequent films, One Way Ticket (2016) and Bus Stop (2017), received poor reviews. Khanvilkar subsequently returned to Hindi films after eight years in 2018 with Meghna Gulzar's thriller Raazi and Milap Zaveri's action thriller Satyameva Jayate, while her portrayal as Lady Serial Killer Lovina Birdie in the thriller web series Damaged was highly praised by critics and audiences. Following this, she made her television debut in a lead role on Star Pravah's Jeevlaga, alongside Swapnil Joshi and Siddharth Chandekar, along with two film releases.
She had three notable releases in 2022, a downtrodden girl in Sachin Kundalkar's love drama Pondicherry, a strong-headed homemaker of Maratha army general in Abhijit Deshpande's pan-India historical film Har Har Mahadev, and Chandramukhi, in which she starred as the titular Tamasha performer; all three marked critical and commercial success. Continuing to take on diverse roles across films and web series, Khanvilkar had four web series released in 2024, including the cybercrime thriller Video Cam Scam, a Disney+ Hotstar action drama Lootere and a intense crime thriller 36 Days earned critical acclaim, and also appeared in Like Aani Subscribe, exploring social media issues, and portrayed Maharani Yesubai in the historical epic Dharmarakshak Mahaveer Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj: Chapter 1, which became a major box-office success.
She has also produced and starred in the music videos Akkal Yeu De (2022) and Ganaraj Gajanan (2023) under her label Amrit Kala Studios. In 2024, she launched her live theatrical dance production World of Stree in association with the UN-accredited NGO 'earth', blending classical and semi-classical music and dance to explore themes central to womanhood.
