Early life
Nikita was born into a Gokhale Marathi family in Tumsar, a small town in the Bhandara district, of Maharashtra, India. She completed her schooling at Sharda Vidyalay, Tumsar. She graduated in Commerce from S.N. MOR College Tumsar. Since Nikita’s mother only passed 8th standard at school, as she got married at a young age, she did not want Nikita to suffer from a similar lack of education. So Nikita graduated in the commerce stream while studying to be a CA. Unfortunately, she did not pass her IPCC. While studying she started working with Integrated Enterprises (India) Ltd as a Dealer. And Nikita moved to Nagpur for her job in the Stock Market. Later she did a certification in NSE, BSE, Commodity market, and Foreign exchange market. After working as the Regional Head of Punjab in Chandigarh with Integrated Enterprises (India) Ltd, she started a Sub Broking Business with IIFL. Having had a short but successful career, she then decided to try her hand at modeling. Believing she was too inexperienced as an actor & dancer, she enrolled in a course at Anupam Kher’s film academy and Terence Lewis’s Dance Academy instead. Nikita has been married to Dutch Photographer Jeroen Gordijn since 2019.
