With a body to kill for, Koena danced her way to Bollywood and instantly set tinsel town on fire!
Although she dreamt of a career in the glamour industry at a very young age, she chose to make a slow and steady start.
Her early modeling assignments include big brands like, Mirinda, Clinic All Clear and Maruti Alto. It was after winning the Gladrags Mega Model, 2002 title that she got a taste of limelight.
She also shot music videos, like stereo nation's Ishq, Channo by Jassi, among many.
And after gaining all the technical knowledge and being absolutely comfortable in front of the camera, Koena made a smashing entry into Bollywood with a sizzling item number in Ram Gopal Verma's 'Road'.
This was followed by a small role in Sanjay Gupta's Musafir, which opened many doors to Bollywood.
Her first movie as a lead actor was 'Ek Khiladi Ek Haseena' directed by Suparn Verma opposite Fardeen Khan.
But the movie that got her all the attention she wanted in Bollywood was 'Apna Sapna Money, Money'. The movie was a hit and so was Koena.
But behind the glamorous Koena lies a very hard working and organized actor.
Her daily routine consists of a gym workout, breakfast and shoot. Koena makes sure she winds up her shoot by 10pm to relax and enjoy at her place in Mumbai.
It won't be wrong to call Koena a fitness freak. She makes sure she goes to the gym every single day, even if it's 4 in the morning!
Eating right and exercise are her mantra for a fabulous body.
She gets at least 6 hours of sleep everyday, which means no partying for her. When not working she prefers to stay at home listening to music and watching movies with her friends.
With a fit body and fabulous looks, Koena prefers to do her stunts herself. In fact she's trained in action, kick boxing and Tai Chi.
Koena is known for being an excellent dancer. Credit goes to Mamata Shankar Ballet troupe where she was trained for twelve years. She's also trained in Latin and Hip Hop.
Not many people know that Koena is a very good make-up artist herself!
Her talent doesn't end there. Being the daughter of an artist she loves to design her house and clothes.
She also has a fetish for fast cars, especially SUVs. And when it comes to food, she craves for Bengali sea food.
