I’m Hazel Keech, a British-born actress and performer working across Indian cinema, television, and international projects. With training in classical dance and theatre, my work is rooted in versatility, discipline, and authentic expression.
This space is a reflection of my journey, my work and the stories I continue to explore on screen and beyond.
I grew up in England, surrounded by music, theatre and movement. Performance entered my life early, through stage productions, dance and storytelling, and it quickly became a language I felt at home in.
That curiosity eventually brought me to India, where I stepped into the world of film and television. What began as an adventure slowly shaped into a career across cinema, commercials and reality television. Each project taught me something new about craft, resilience and the power of human stories.
Over time, life expanded beyond the screen. Marriage, motherhood and personal experiences with mental health reshaped how I view success and purpose. Today, I’m equally passionate about wellness, emotional well-being and supporting others through honest conversations and community work.
Acting will always be my first love. But who I am today is more than just the roles I play.
I am someone who values authenticity, balance and meaningful impact.
In September 2013, Keech appeared in the reality show, Bigg Boss 7. She spent a week in the house before getting eliminated and became the first contestant to exit the house. In an interview after her eviction she expressed her anger about Pratyusha Banerjee, saying, “She likes to create problems”.
Cinema has the power to touch hearts and shape lives.
It holds the potential to inspire change and make the world a better place.

I was born on 28 February 1987 in Essex, England, to a British father and an Indo-Mauritian Hindu mother with ancestry from the Bihar-Uttar Pradesh region. I did her schooling at Beal High School in Redbridge, London, where she performed in stage shows and learned various forms of dance including Indian classical dance, English dance and western contemporary.
On 12 November 2015, I got engaged to Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh. They were married on 30 November 2016. After marriage, I adopted the name “Gurbasant Kaur”, which was given to her by Sant Balvinder Singh during the wedding ceremony. We had our first child, a boy named Orion, on 25 January 2022. Our second child, a girl named Aura was born on 17 July 2023.
I admitted in an interview that she survived severe depression and was suicidal in her time in India, and so she took up diploma to learn Psychotherapy to help others like her.
