==Early life==
Sneha Ullal was born bought up in Middle East [[Muscat, Oman]] to a [[Tulu language|Tulu]] [[Devadiga]] father from [[Mangalore]] and a [[Sindhi people|Sindhi]] mother.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Mohandas|first1=B.G.

Later she moved to Mumbai with her mother and attended Durelo Convent High School and studied at Vartak College.

==Career==
Ullal made her movie debut in the 2005 Hindi movie ''[[Lucky: No Time for Love]]'' opposite [[Salman Khan]]. After the movie, she was noted for her striking similarities in appearance with [[Aishwarya Rai]].<ref>{{cite web|author=TNN|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/lucknow-times/sneha-follows-aishwarya/articleshow/2003886.cms |title=Sneha follows Aishwarya! – The Times of India |work=The Times of India |date=2006-09-18 |access-date=2010-12-12}}</ref> She later said that although the comparison didn't help her as an actor, it gave her a lot of recognition.<ref name="realbolly">{{cite web|url=http://www.realbollywood.com/news/2009/01/sneha-ullal-kaash-mere-hote.html|title=Sneha on her upcoming movie|publisher=RealBollywood.com |date=5 January 2009|access-date=16 May 2011}}</ref> Ullal then appeared with Khan's brother [[Sohail Khan]] in ''[[Aryan (2006 film)|Aryan]]'', which did not do well at the box office.

Fearing that she was too young and needed to be more mature to work in movies, she took a break from Bollywood.<ref name="realbolly"/> She made her debut in Telugu movies with ''[[Ullasamga Utsahamga]]'', which turned out to be a huge hit. ''[[Nenu Meeku Telusa...?]]'' was her second Telugu release. It was followed by an appearance in the song ''Nuvvu ready'' in the Telugu movie ''[[King (2008 film)|King]]'' opposite [[Akkineni Nagarjuna|Nagarjuna]].

In 2007, she was to appear in ''Pirate's Blood'' by prolific horror filmmaker and character actor Steg Dorr. In interviews, Dorr would say "we canceled them because of a hurricane. We could not get it going on and the financing fell through." The role later went to Oman actress Maimoon Al-Balushi.{{citation needed|date=May 2021}}

Later, she signed ''Kaashh... Mere Hote'' to show that she is still interested in Hindi films.<ref name="realbolly"/> Her next few films didn't do well at the box office, but her 2010 release ''[[Simha (film)|Simha]]'' opposite [[Nandamuri Balakrishna|Balakrishna]] turned out to be a blockbuster.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bollywoodraj.com/2010/05/telugu-movie-simha-box-office-record.html|title=Simha box office results|publisher=BollywoodRaj.com|access-date=16 May 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110708082105/http://www.bollywoodraj.com/2010/05/telugu-movie-simha-box-office-record.html|archive-date=8 July 2011}}</ref>
