Early life and background

Anastasiya Hamolka was born on 23 May 1994 in Minsk, Belarus. From an early age she gravitated toward performance: her mother enrolled her in a dance group when she was seven, and she trained in Indian classical and Bollywood dance. As a teen she travelled for competitions across Europe and beyond, visiting countries such as Lithuania, Bulgaria, Egypt and Poland. She has described skating and dance as long-standing passions and picked up Hindi by watching Bollywood films.

At fifteen she earned a scholarship to study at the New York Film Academy but was unable to take it up because of a visa issue. In 2010 she first visited India for a friend’s wedding and ultimately remained to study acting in Delhi. She later continued formal acting training at the East 15 Acting School in Loughton, United Kingdom.

Career

Performing under the stage name Anna Ador, she launched a career spanning film, web series and theatre. Her film debut came in 2016 with the Punjabi historical picture Saka: The Martyrs of Nankana Sahib, in which she played Susan. That same year she took leading screen roles in regional cinema, including the Gujarati film Passport, where she learned Gujarati in a short time for her part, and appeared in films such as Fredrick and Udta Punjab.

Across 2017 and 2018 she continued to build a presence in Indian cinema, appearing in Gurgaon, Qaidi Band and Batti Gul Meter Chalu. She was also part of the internationally recognised film The White Tiger (2021). On the web and television front, Anna gained attention for portraying Emilie Schenkl, the wife of Subhas Chandra Bose, in Bose: Dead/Alive (2017). Subsequent series roles include Natalia Petrova in Lock’d IN (2021), Aimee Baptiste in the Netflix series Aranyak (2021) and Chloe in the MX Player series Campus Diaries (2022). In 2023 she was seen as Svetlana in the Amazon Prime Video series Farzi.

Beyond screen acting, Anna Ador has maintained a strong theatre practice. She has performed in contemporary and classic plays ranging from original works to reinterpretations of Russian drama, including performances in productions titled Sounding Vanya, The Lesson, Macbeth, Hamlet and Cat Among the Pigeons. In 2017 she appeared in plays such as Jannat Central and Detective 9-2-11.

She has expanded into filmmaking roles behind the camera as well: she directed two short films, No Lift and Sthir, and served as executive producer on Parikatha and Three and a Half. During her early years in India she supported herself with jobs outside the industry, working as a bartender and playing dhol at Indian weddings while she established her career.
