Sarita Catherine Louise Choudhury (born 18 August 1966) is an English actress. Born in Blackheath, an affluent neighborhood in London, to an English mother and a Bengali father, Choudhury was raised in Jamaica, Mexico, Italy and England due to her father's work. She landed her breakout role starring opposite Denzel Washington in Mira Nair's romantic drama film Mississippi Masala (1991) despite never formally studying acting. Since then, she has appeared in numerous American and international film productions, including A Perfect Murder (1998), Spike Lee's She Hate Me (2004), Lady in the Water (2006), Midnight's Children (2012), and The Green Knight (2021).
