Arjun Rampal (born on 26th November, 1969) was discovered in a Delhi discotheque by designer, Rohit Bal. Arjun became Rohit's protégé and was extremely 'close' to him for a good part of his career when the latter promoted him. For a long while, Arjun went through a pretty lean patch in his modeling career and his debut movie 'Moksh' (with Manisha Koirala, directed by Ashok Mehta) was not releasing.
One of India's sought after male supermodels himself (along with Rahul Dev and Milind Soman), Arjun married female Indian supermodel, Mehr Jessia. His cute, clean-cut and chiseled face makes him a great hit with men and women alike. Recently, Mehr gave birth to a girl, Mahikaa.
Rajiv Rai cast Arjun in a music video 'Don't Marry' with model Namrata Baruwah and then picked him up from the dumps to launch him in 'Pyaar, Ishq Aur Mohabbat' with Keerti Reddy, Suniel Shetty and Aftab Shivdasani. The film did not fare well but Arjun bagged many acting offers, which got his career going.
