In search of Armenians in India

While searching famous people all over the world I was trying to find Armenian celebrities in India. In this list only one name was there: Tulip Joshi . Her mother is diaspora Armenian who moved from Lebanon to India and got married to a Gujarati Indian.

Although Tulip is not so famous in India as other Bollywood movie stars and has quite a short filmography but it helped me find another Indian. Joshi plays a suicide bomber in the 2007 film “Dhokha,” directed by Pooja Bhutt, who also shares Joshi’s Armenian lineage on her mother’s side.

It is quite difficult to find any information on this. Only thanks to the unique cooperation of these two beautiful ladies spread light on this fact. Tulip has promised to teach Pooja how to speak in Armenian and she is eager to learn.

Pooja Bhatt started her career as an Indian film actress, but currently devoting time to film production and direction. She is the daughter of Indian film director Mahesh Bhatt.

Apart from these charming celebrities no other information appears in the sources to witness the perfection of Indo-Armenian families.
