Mini bio
A childhood on the move.
Born in Bombay, Shenaz spent her first five years aboard ships with her parents. Her father was a merchant marine captain. In her own account, travel was part of family life long before it became her work.
From MTV to the movies.
A photographer discovered her during her first year of college, leading to modelling work and then MTV’s Most Wanted. Her Telugu debut, Eduruleni Manishi, came in 2001. Ishq Vishk brought her to Hindi cinema in 2003 and earned a Filmfare supporting actress nomination.
Telling stories across borders.
She wrote, produced and hosted Culture Shock for Discovery Travel Channel in the US. Her screen work also includes One Life to Live, Brown Nation and The Big Sick. Today, her travel videos share encounters with people, places and ways to live more sustainably.
A book between journeys.
Her debut book, All He Left Me Was a Recipe, mixes fact and fiction in stories about relationships. Each story ends with a recipe and lessons from the encounter. Penguin lists its Ebury Press edition as January 2024.
