The former Miss World took a trip down memory lane yesterday (Sunday), sharing a glimpse of her life before the fame, and let's just say, her "double life" as a medical student and a model is giving us major Hannah Montana vibes.
Here is what was on the scorecard of the future superstar.
The Post: "Biochemistry isn't in my genes!" 🧬
Manushi shared a picture of her 2016 Report Card from BPS Government Medical College for Women (Sonepat), along with a few blurry, nostalgic photos from her college hostel.
The Vibe: No designer gowns here. Just lab coats, textbooks, and the stress of First Professional MBBS exams.
The Marks: While she didn't reveal the exact grades, she jokingly pointed out that she cleared her exams despite the chaos of that year.
The Caption: Juggling Surgery & Shoots 📸
In a heartfelt and witty caption, Manushi broke down why 2016 was the turning point of her life.
"#2016. A year I played Hannah Montana juggling between college and my first few shoots after being scouted by Miss India at AIIMS, New Delhi," she wrote.
She revealed some hilarious behind-the-scenes secrets from that year:
The "Fainting" Incident: "My first clinical posting was in General Surgery. One of us fainted that day (Promise it wasn't me!)."
The "Bose" Break: She booked her first big campaign (for Bose speakers) right in the middle of her studies.
The Reality Check: "Realised Biochemistry doesn't run in the genes (sorry Mom), but the rest does (High-5 Dad!)."
The Beginning: She also mentioned clicking her first pictures for the Miss India entry form "on a Saturday after classes" and joining Instagram as a "one-time thing." (Look where we are now!)
Fan Reaction: "Dr. Chhillar Rules!"
Fans are loving this relatable side of the Samrat Prithviraj and Maalik actress.
Comments: "Beauty with Brains is an understatement," wrote one fan. Another joked, "Imagine walking into a hospital and Manushi Chhillar is your surgeon!"
SantaBanta Verdict: From dissecting frogs (or observing surgery) in 2016 to ruling the silver screen in 2026, Manushi has come a long way. But honestly? We kind of want to see Dr. Manushi in a medical drama now!
