She always had a passion for the fitness industry and joined a gym in the eighth grade. It was amazing to witness a girl who was so young express interest in the gym. She did not, however, consider making a career out of bodybuilding.
3. Deepika Chowdhary

The first female IFBB (International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness) elite in India is Deepika Chowdhury, a native of Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh.

She achieved fifth in the Women’s Fitness Physique event in the 2014 edition of the Sixth World Bodybuilding & Physique Sports Championships. Ankita quickly made it back to the 2015 Jerrai Classics top five finalists.

6. Karuna Waghmare

Karuna Waghmare is the leader among Indian women bodybuilders following devotedly pursuing fitness training for two decades. Her impressive accomplishments include placing sixth in the Female Physique Fitness division at the 2015 Amateur Olympia, making history for the first Indian woman to win a medal there.

Conclusion
We’ll be honest: This list might not be as exact as we had intended. This is primarily owing to India’s lack of women’s championships at the state and national levels. There are very few competitions with a separate women’s division. As a result, comparing one person to another becomes extremely challenging. We have come up with this list based on how these individuals performed the previous year.
