Born in Paddington, London, England on August 9, 1976, Rhona Mitra is the daughter of Irish mother Nora and Bengali-Irish father Anthony Mitra. In 1984, Rhona's parents got divorced and, as part of an overall lifestyle change, eight-year-old Rhona was sent off to boarding school. Several years passed at two different all-girls schools, but Rhona and her energetic spirit were not fit for the discipline those English establishments offered and she was subsequently expelled from both of them.
In 2000, Mitra landed a permanent role on the ABC medical drama Gideon's Crossing, but unfortunately, the show tanked after one season. The bigger highlight that year came with the release of Get Carter, in which she shared a steamy love scene with Sylvester Stallone. Returning to England, Mitra appeared in Ali G Indahouse starring (of course) Ali G, the popular gangsta comedian. Her most recent role, in 2002's moneymaking romantic comedy, Sweet Home Alabama, is evidence that she is slowly but surely breaking into Hollywood circles.
