Along with her jaw-dropping pics, check out these poems by Damini Chopra

Popular model and Instagram sensation, Damini Chopra made her silver screen debut by essaying the role of a cop in Prabhas’ multilingual actioner ‘Saaho’. Sharing the screen alongside established actors like Prabhas and Shraddha Kapoor, she played her short role to perfection and looked drop-dead gorgeous on the silver screen. During the lockdown period, the trained classical dancer did online courses in scriptwriting, acting and recently, she started to revisit her old hobby of writing poems. In her latest Instagram posts, Damini has been penning some soothing poetry on nature, depression, life and confidence.

“Sometimes, it’s your own mind that is the traitor. Be swayed not by this tumultuous typhoon”

The journey that leads on a path less taken,

Overcoming the inner demons that left you shaken,

Doubt encircles even the most herculean gladiator,

For sometimes its your own mind that is the traitor,

Be swayed not by this tumultuous typhoon,

The caterpillar also emerges a butterfly only when it breaks from the cocoon...

“Vivid hue is the start of something new”

The vivid hue,

The start of something new,

Waking up from the warmth of my dreams to the morning dew,

Bidding another season adieu...

“There is a place between despair and desire, where light shines bright”

There is a place between despair and desire, where the light shines bright.

A little lane looking infinitely long,

But only those who dare tread it will tell you that the horizon is just there, above and beyond...

“Vision is the enchantress who puts a spell on the mind”

Somewhere there,

Immersed in the beauty that surrounds,

For vision is the enchantress who puts a spell on the mind,

Bringing in gifts of being present, in abounds...

Damini holds an Undergraduate Degree from the Harvard University

A theatre artist and classical dancer, Damini Chopra did her undergraduate degree in English Literature at the renowned Harvard University in Boston. Not many know that the director of Saaho, Sujeeth Reddy bumped into Damini on the streets of Bandra and instantly decided to cast her in the film. Talking to E Times about her first day experience on the sets of Saaho, the beauty with brains said “I still remember it. I was very nervous on the first day as I had to say my dialogues to Prabhas. Despite being a massive superstar, he was so down-to-earth and very helpful. He made sure that I felt at ease before him.”
