Timeline
Shiney Suraj Ahuja (born 15 May 1973) is an Indian actor in Bollywood films.
Ahuja was born on 15 May 1973 into a Punjabi family in New Delhi, India.
His mother is from Shimla, with her family originally from Sargoda and his father Suraj Ahuja, is from Sahiwal, both in modern day Pakistan.
His father was a lieutenant in the Indian Army.
Ahuja studied at St. Xavier's School, Ranchi, and Army Public School, Dhaula Kuan, and attended Hansraj College of Delhi University followed by R.V. College of Engineering, Bangalore.
Later, he joined the theatre group "TAG" where he met Barry John.
Shortly thereafter, he joined John's acting school in Delhi.
After completing college, Ahuja secured his first commercial ad for Pepsi.
This instantly brought him into consideration by the top ad agencies.
Flooded with offers, he worked in over 40 ad films in that year, including Cadburys and Citibank.
He also featured in the music video 'Pyar ho Gaya' for the British-Asian band "Stereo Nation."
Sudhir Mishra, who was auditioning for a film by Pritish Nandy Communications, Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi, saw Shiney in the Pepsi commercial and called him to audition for Kay Kay's character – Sidharth Tyabji.
Upon his request, Mishra also auditioned him for the role of Vikram Malhotra.
He was selected from over 200 aspirants for the role of Vikram Malhotra and made his acting debut in the film.
The film went on to win critical acclaim, and was screened at as many as 12 film festivals over 6 months.
These included film festivals at Turkey, Estonia, River to River (Florence), Berlin, Edinburgh, Washington, Dallas, India (Goa), Bite The Mango festival (Bradford, UK), the Commonwealth festival (Manchester), and the Pacific Rim festival (California).
The film was released commercially in 2005 with minimal publicity but a national footprint across India.
He received several best actor (debut) awards given for the year including Filmfare, Zee Cine, and Stardust.
Thereafter, Ahuja played the lead role in Mahesh Bhatt's Gangster, a popular commercial movie genre and Woh Lamhe opposite Kangana Ranaut.
Other films followed including Life in a Metro, Bhool Bhulaiyaa.
He won the Filmfare Best Male Debut Award for Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi in 2006 and then followed with several hit films like Gangster, Woh Lamhe, Life in a Metro, Bhool Bhulaiyaa, and Welcome Back.
In June 2009, Ahuja was arrested on charges of raping, detaining, and threatening his 19-year-old domestic servant.
He was booked under Section 376 (rape), and Section 506 (threat to kill) of the Indian Penal Code.
During the trial, his maid (the victim) recanted on her testimony and told the Court that she was never raped.
However, the judge believed that the maid falsely testified under pressure and, in 2011, Ahuja was sentenced to seven years of prison.
This case was the inspiration for the writing of the legal drama film Section 375.
The film was written by Manish Gupta, his friend who had interacted with the parties of the case during the time of the arrest.
Ahuja is married to Anupam, and they have a daughter Arshiya.
