Diana Penty

Facts

  • Academic Aspirations: Before committing to modeling, Diana planned to pursue a master’s degree in marketing, communication, and advertising in Boston—but her rising modeling career changed that path.

  • Dance Training: Diana briefly trained in classical Indian dance forms—starting with Kathak and later spending over a month learning Bharatanatyam, though she didn’t continue either for long.

  •  Animal Lover: She’s a devoted pet parent to two dogs named Leopold and Tessa, and actively supports animal welfare initiatives.

  •  Almost Rockstar: Diana was originally offered the lead role opposite Ranbir Kapoor in Rockstar (2011), but turned it down due to modeling commitments. The role eventually went to Nargis Fakhri.

  • Global Runway Presence: She’s one of the few Indian models to have walked in prestigious fashion weeks in Paris and New York, modeling for global brands like Garnier and Forever 21.
