If you are a ’90s kid, you will know the peppy hit song, Babuji Zara Dheere Chalo. The pretty lady in this music video from the movie, Dum (2002) was Yana Gupta, a girl from Czechoslovakia (Czech Republic). Yana’s name was Jana Synkova, and she was born in Brno, Czechoslovakia, to Czech parents. Her mom had a tough time raising Yana and her sister, as Yana’s parents, at a very early age, got separated. However, Yana stepped into the modelling world very young and created history with the item song, Babuji Zara Dheere Chalo. It was her debut song in Bollywood that made her an overnight sensation.
Yana was then seen in a couple of movies and then silently exited the movie industry. She has not done any Bollywood movies or dance items for years, and the big question is, where is she today, and who is Yana? Who found her ex-husband, Satyakam Gupta, at Osho’s ashram, got divorced, then was in a relationship with actor, Aftab Shivdasani and more.
How Yana Gupta met her ex-husband, Satyakam Gupta, in an ashram and then, after divorce, did not want his last name?
Did you know that Yana was 16 when she started her career in the modelling industry? She graduated with a degree in Park Architecture and Gardening and continued to pursue her passion for modelling. She reportedly went to Japan to do modelling as she was getting good money. After she came back to India, she spent her initial years in Pune at Osho’s ashram. It was here that she met her former husband, artist, Satyakam Gupta, and in 2001 they got married.
