==Early life==
Natasha was born in a [[Hindu]] family to Rachna Khanna and Dr. Triloki Nath Khanna, a Professor of Hindi in [[Zakir Husain College]], Delhi. She skipped the clichéd course in drama/acting and broadened her artistic vision by doing a Bachelor's in Art from the [[College of Art, Delhi]].

==Career==
Natasha started her career as a drama teacher in [[Modern School (New Delhi)]] in 1992. As a part of her job, she was assigned the responsibility of directing and choreographing plays including the signature event, valedictory function. She choreographed musical ballets involving 280 students for 12 years. Some of these plays were namely ''Nav Prabhat'', ''Spring –The Reawakening'', ''Swarnim Vriksh'', ''Amrit Manthan'', ''Sunderland Mein Alice'', ''Ek Aur Panchtantra'', ''Ek Aur Ek Gyarah'', ''Sunoh Kahani'', ''Wings of Desire'' and ''Dhun ka Jadoogar''. Working with everyone involved in the play, from costume designer to script writer, from makeup artist to music director, she honed her skills as an artist.

After 12 years of service, Natasha joined Amal Alana's theater group. Since then she has been a part of a theater group that has travelled across the globe doing plays in places like London, Mexico, Lahore and including every metropolitan city in India.
