Biography
Tulip Joshi is a former Indian actress and a businesswoman. She has appeared in Hindi, Kannada, Punjabi, Malayalam and Telugu films.

She chose the name Sanjana, she was playing the character of Anjali in that film. The film was a semi-hit. Despite the decent reviews, Tulip was panned for her acting.
