Anjli Mohindra

Anjli Mohindra grew up in Nottingham and trained at The Television Workshop. Her first major television casting was as Rani Chandra in The Sarah Jane Adventures, aged just 19, a role she played for four years. She then had supporting roles in the likes of Cucumber (Channel 4), written by Russell T Davies; Paranoid (Netflix); The Boy with the Topknot (BBC Two); and Bancroft (ITV). In 2018, she played the duplicitous Nadia in Jed Mercurio’s BAFTA and Golden Globe-nominated thriller, Bodyguard (BBC/Netflix). The same year, she appeared in crime drama Dark Heart (ITV), DC’s Legends of Tomorrow (CW/Sky One) and modern ghost story The Dead Room (BBC Four), adding Wild Bill (ITV) in 2019.

More recently, she landed key roles in two police procedural series, namely the BAFTA-nominated Vigil (BBC) and The Suspect (ITV). In 2022, she had roles in two science fiction series: a recurring character in US production The Peripheral (Amazon Prime) and a leading role in two seasons of British time-loop thriller The Lazarus Project (Sky Max), alongside BAFTA Breakthrough Paapa Essiedu. She also provided voices for games, the multiple BAFTA-winning Elden Ring (2022) and Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince (2023), and featured in the film Munich: The Edge of War (2021).

In 2024, she played the lead in six-part modern folk horror The Red King (Now TV/Sky/Alibi), and has just wrapped on a new Amazon Prime series called Fear, directed by Justin Chadwick.

Anjli also won a place on the Royal Court’s Young Writers’ Programme in 2016 to develop her writing voice. During the Coronavirus pandemic, she made her writing debut with short film The People Under the Moon (2020), produced entirely during lockdown as part of the Virtual Collaborators series.
