Life

Saniya Anklesaria was born in Mumbai, India to Anjali Gupta and Pramesh Anklesaria.

Her acting career kick started at the age of seven when she participated in Raell Padamsee's seven-day acting workshop during her summer vacation of 2009. Upon completion she was selected for a television commercial in her first audition. Since then she has featured in several television commercials and print media nationwide. She started dance at the age of four and then started taking dancing classes at the Shiamak Davar's dance company and Brian's Academy of dance in Mumbai that led to her earning several awards and accolades dancing competitively.[4]

In 2012, she featured in Disney television series, The Suite Life of Karan & Kabir (Indian adaptation of the American show The Suite Life of Zack & Cody) portraying the character of Max, as one of Karan and Kabir's friend. The same year, she made her silver screen debut with Bollywood blockbuster film Rowdy Rathore, featuring actor Akshay Kumar and veteran actor Yashpal Sharma. She played Sharma's daughter in the film.[5] Early that year, she was chosen to play the lead child actor role in national award-winning director Anant Mahadevan's Life's Good, alongside actors Jackie Shroff and Rajit Kapoor. The Director was looking for three girls of different age with similarities in looks among them and felt that Saniya was perfect to play the youngest girl, Mishti.[6][7] In 2013 she was seen in the Bollywood blockbuster film Raanjhanaa playing actress Sonam Kapoor's childhood followed by Bombairiya starring Radhika Apte, released in January 2019.[8][9]

Anklesaria was cast as the lead child protagonist in the telefilm Terrorist Uncle, produced by Rohit Roy productions playing the daughter Minnie of veteran actor Ronit Roy and television actress Sakshi Tanwar.[10] She has also appeared on an episode of Crime Patrol in 2011.
