Raima Sen is an Indian film actress who has acted in Bengali Films (Tollywood), Hindi Movies (Bollywood) and South Indian Regional Cinemas.

Original name of Actress Raima Sen is Raima Dev Varma born on 11 November 1979 in Mumbai.

Raima is the daughter of Moon Moon Sen and the granddaughter of legendary actress Suchitra Sen. Her sister, Riya Sen, is also in the Bollywood industry. Their father Bharat Dev Varma is a member of the royal family of Tripura. Her paternal grandmother, Ila Devi, was the princess of Cooch Behar, whose younger sister Gayatri Devi was the Maharani of Jaipur. Her paternal great-grandmother Indira was the only daughter of Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad III of Baroda. Raima’s maternal great-grandfather Adinath Sen was a prominent Kolkata businessman, whose father Dinanath Sen – a relative of former Union Law Minister Ashoke Kumar Sen- was the Diwan or a Minister of the Maharaja of Tripura.

Sen Sisters are credited on-screen under their mother’s maiden name, although their official papers carry the surname Dev Varma.

Raima’s public profile and image is much lower-key and more demure than that of her sister Riya who has been compared more to their mother. Raima is also said to resemble her grandmother much more than either her mother or her sister. Journalists who meet her describe her as easy to talk to, and devoid of starry airs.

Raima Sen made her debut in the film Godmother, which was a critically acclaimed success, but her minor role may have been overlooked in favour of the protagonist, played by Shabana Azmi. She then starred in the film Daman playing Raveena Tandon’s daughter, where her small performance was appreciated.

Actress Raima Sen’s breakthrough role came when Raima starred in the Rituparno Ghosh’s film Chokherbali. Raima Sen won much praise for Raima Sen’s role of Ashalata. After a few more average movies Raima had a critically acclaimed hit in 2005 with Parineeta, where Raima played the playmate of the film’s heroine, essayed by the debutante Vidya Balan. Since then Raima has had two more hits with the action thriller Dus and the Bengali film Antarmahal (where Raima had a very small role). Raima Sen has done a Telegu film in 2005 and Raima is expected to do more south Indian films.

Raima Sen is a hugely talented bollywood actress who is climbing the ladder of success solely because of her talent and not her rich family background.
Raima is one of the stars in the multi starrer film DUS (2005).
