Not a singer or an actress, but this superstar's granddaughter became a tarot reader, she once trained with Shah Rukh Khan, her name is...

In a world where legacy often writes your path, Vrinda Ganguly chose to break away. While her grandfather Kishore Kumar ruled Bollywood's golden era with hits in both acting and singing, and her father Amit Kumar carried forward the family's musical heritage, Vrinda walked off the stage — quite literally. She's not a playback singer, not an actress, and doesn't chase the spotlight. She reads energies instead — as a tarot card expert and spiritual mentor. And no, this wasn't a fallback career. It was a conscious choice. What was her connection to Bollywood? Vrinda's Bollywood link isn't just by blood. She trained at Barry John's acting studio — the same place that gave India Shah Rukh Khan. Technically, that makes her SRK's junior. But the arc shifted. In 2017, she decided she didn't want the screen. She wanted silence, intuition, and a space far removed from film sets. So what does she do now? Today, Vrinda Ganguly runs her own YouTube channel — VriEvolution . With a modest but growing base of subscribers, she shares tarot insights, spiritual guidance, and healing practices. Her presence spills onto Instagram and Facebook, where her aura speaks louder than legacy. And no — she isn't hidden in robes or clichés. Friends say she looks no less than any actress, but that isn't her calling. Tarot is. What about her family? Vrinda is the elder daughter of Amit Kumar. While her younger sister Muktika chose music, Vrinda took a path the family never expected — yet fully embraced. She's Kishore Kumar's granddaughter, but more importantly, she's her own person. In a world chasing fame, she chose inner fire. While most star kids run toward the arc lights, Vrinda turned inward. And maybe that's what makes her story quietly iconic — in a way Kishore Kumar would've probably smiled at.
