I cannot begin to express how much you mean to me.
Grateful every day that someone like you exists...to learn from/ with, to laugh with, and to dream alongside as we plot ways to keep creating change for our communities.
Thank you for always pushing me to think bigger and bolder.

Darling Anurima,

Happy Happy Birthday! Wishing you all the health, love and joy on this milestone birthday!

The world is a better place because you are in it. You are one of the most generous, kind, fun, funny, intentional and insanely smart people I know. Thank you for always being so generous with your advice and knowledge. I have so admired the way you take on and tackle new things - and excel at all of them! Whether we are stuffed in a clown cab in Bombay, wandering the streets of Oslo, or dancing the night away in NYC - I am so grateful to be in your orbit. Sending you all the love!

Yours, Megha

Happy Birthday Anu! To the funkiest of funky Divas ;-) Always great to connect and re-connect with you and the crew over all these years. To many many more!

Anu at 50 - a poem

Fifty years young and still running the show,
All dazzling years making justice just glow.
From Anthem of Us to rights tours abroad,
She fights on undeterred and unflawed.

She’s chaired mighty commissions, made workplaces fair,
And films like Writing With Fire sparked light everywhere.
On boards by the dozen, with causes galore,
Her passport’s worn out… yet she’s ready for more.

She’s rallied up voters, mentored with heart,
Dismantles discrimination like it’s an art.

So here’s to Anurima — so cute and so fine.
May the next fifty even bigger and better!! So proud to call you a friend of mine. 🎂✨

Raina

Happy birthday! Hope you are starting your festivities and are already in a fabulous place surrounded by loves. I love you so much and am grateful to be friends with someone who embodies warmth, creativity, and community. Much love on your 50th!!

Hey Anurima-

Happy birthday and welcome to the big 5-0!

You bring so much good into the world- through your attitude, optimism, activism, and by bringing people together for good causes and happy events. We are all better off from knowing you.

I hope you have a wonderful, joyful day. Cannot wait to catch up sometime soon!

Love, Anne

Anne Heavey Scheinfeldt

Boss, mentor, colleague, roomie, dearest friend, and family. You hit them all. I love you for it. So much that we’re flying across the world to celebrate! See you in Cape Town baby!

Alex Elson

Anu,
There were so many photos to choose from. Us in Dublin w/ Hosier, clubbing in Miami, at Sundance in Park City, speaking truth to power to CEOs and corporate boards — so many in DC and New York at parties, art exhibits, museums and concerts living our best life, eating amazing food, remembering what to do with this one wild and precious life.

This one represents everything I love about you: Your energy, your activism, the way that you invite everyone into what you’re doing whether that’s making art, centering joy, or helping to change the world. The way you build community. The way that you inspire people to say Yes! when you ask without worrying too much about the “what” and just knowing if you’re involved, the why will be worth the ride. I love you so much. I’m so grateful and honored to have you in my circle. And I know the world is an infinitely better place because you were born. Xoxoxo

Erin Essenmacher

Happy Birthday!!! My favorite memory is that we were caught in the middle of a flash flood / hurricane back in the fall of 2023. I had an important call an was on my way to the city to take it. I couldn't get to my office in time, but I was near Union Square. Without hesitation you said "come by here and take it. I need to lie down and rest but just do the call from here."

That one little moment exemplifies your kindness and care for others. You are a wonderful, generous person, and I hope you have the most amazing birthday ever.

Happy Birthday to the REALEST person I know. We've come a long way from the marathon late-night 'gum boot' chats of Harvard Yard, but know that I will always cherish you my sister from another Mr...

I cherish every moment with you Anu- especially cooking with you, and with our moms! And I’ll never forget being with you, that moment you were nominated for an Oscar. My heart brimming with pride . I’ll always always be celebrating you Anu- your successes as well as the ones that don’t feel like it.
It is privilege to walk this path with you

Priya Darshini

Anu, I often wonder how the universe brought you into my life. I don’t question it, but I am always in awe of such a blessing. You mean so much to so many around the world. The love you hold, the light you shine… it really is powerful, and healing. I don’t know how you give like you do, but I’m blessed for knowing you, for calling my sister. I love you to bits dearest Anu. Thank you for being our family.

Priya Darshini

Happy happy Birthday Anurima!! Wishing you a year filled with joy, adventure, laughter, and all the good things you bring into the lives of everyone around you. Here's to an amazing decade ahead!

Happy Birthday Anurima🥳 and welcome to the 50/50 club! Thank you for being a generous, smart, crazy, funny, justice warrior and all around inspiration! I am honored to call you my sister-friend!🥳♥️

Sabrina aka Sabby G

Wow, what can one say about the forever-16-year-old who is now somehow turning 50?

I feel honored to have known you for over 2/3 (!) of your life, and privileged to watch you grow up (as we've all watched each other grow up and even helped raise one another) into the amazing human being and leader that you are.

At this stage of my life, my deepest joy comes from watching those that I care about the most shine and soar. And few things make me happier than watching you do you -- fighting for others, telling their stories, and mobilizing communities of virtue to keep this society and world the way so many of us want it to be -- and be recognized for what you do. Or meeting people who happen to know you and hear them gush.

I also feel privileged to be your follower on Instagram so I can see an IG story of you in a different corner of the world every other day and live vicariously. :-)

Anyway, have the happiest of happy birthdays. And thanks for being my sister, my protector, and a light in this world.

Here's to 50 more. xoxoxo, Z

Anu, you have brought so much color, adventure, and laughter to my life, I don't know who (or where) I would be without you. You have always been such a true soul sister but I question our actual blood relations when I watch you (in awe) being able to operate so boldly, so fearlessly, so joyously, and constantly land on your feet with the most infectious grin on your face. You've been a treasured best friend since the day I met you and will be one for all the days we got. Happy 50th....I plan on celebrating this milestone with you for the next 50. Love you, one of the two Emily Ferns.

This photo lives on my fridge. It reminds me so much of how damn funny you can be. Much ink has been spilt about what an amazingly talented, thoughtful, generous, kind individual you are... but let's also celebrate your comic timing and how much laughter and joy you bring to every occasion. Big love to you, little one.

Dearest Anu- HAPPY HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY!!!!!

May you feel so loved and cared for on this special birthday! You have been such a loving wonderful force of intelligence, action, creativity and love in our world - we are so lucky to have you! I hope that many dreams continue to come true -- and for all the ways that life is hard, you glide through it and maintain your Anu magic. I feel fortunate to know you and see all the good. you do for so many people, and hope to have many special times to come. Thank you for showing up for all of us in so many ways. My shower just to name one was incredible and a deeply special memory.
Lots and lots of love, Amelia

Amelia Kaplan Romanowsky

Anu — well, well, well, so you are turning 50 :) May this coming decade be filled with laughter, friendship, and making even more unforgettable memories with those you love (and who love you right back!) I am so grateful to have had you in my life over these past 15 years, and here’s to many, many, more.

Probir

What's there to say? I love you forever! From Columbia to Costa Rica to Cape Town you'll always be my bestie. Couldn't be prouder of or more grateful for you and to call you family. Glad we've spun around the last 26 years together - and look forward to the next 50! Happy Birthday!!!

Archana

Anu you are 50 and fine! Wishing you the happiest birthday filled with love and joy! Can’t wait to celebrate with you when are back stateside.

Happy Birthday my dearest and bestest Channus!
Who knew decades ago when we first met in that Tribeca restaurant that we would be lifelong sisters. What a journey it's been...so far. So many adventures and so many more to come. You are one of one - we are all just lucky to be in your orbit. Truly. Love you so much.

Vanita

Thanks for all the good times, Anu . . . and for the long leash. The calendar may say you're 50 this year, but remember: you'll always be younger than George Clooney. And George Clooney will never be old. Lots of love.

Chinh

Anu - I'm so grateful we've remained connected, if only because it means I get to be a fly in your wonderful orbit of justice-building and community-making and truth-telling! Thanks for all you do, and the infectious laughter you bring to our world and work. Wishing you a beautiful milestone birthday and a year of celebration! Much love - Jenn

“Happy birthday to my muse! The one who sparked Work Song’s devotion, lit the first flare of Sunlight, and gave Jackie and Wilson its grin. You’re the pulse beneath Nina Cried Power, the quiet ache inside Cherry Wine, the wild grace that shaped From Eden. Every adventure we’ve shared carries that same raw, holy electricity. You’ve always turned ordinary moments mythic, and the world is louder, warmer, and more alive because of you. Here’s to another year of inspiring melodies no one else could summon.”

Hozier

Happy 50th! Grateful for every adventure, shared playlist, shared kitchen meal, kindness in a storm, wise insight and quick laughs we’ve shared. Here’s to louder music, wiser mischief, more grace and longer moments together. Love you, Zander

Happy birthday Anurima!! I hope you are able to take time to let in joy and love this month, because you bring so much happiness to us. I’m inspired by your integrity, work ethic, and dedication, and so grateful to call you a friend ❤️

Prachi

I love too many things to write them down. All of you. And how we love to get into the middle of stuff together. There is no one I’d rather get into the middle of stuff with. I know your power and your goodness, your hilarity and your humanity--it is all in your smile. Thank you for bringing me and my brood along for this ride. I esteem, love, and cherish you. Onward, my dearest friend. Our Anu Masi. My ‘love canal’ dance partner from the start. Here’s to the next 50!

Neela

Anu! Happy 50th! What a joy it has been to cause mischief with you these 30 years. Cambridge kidnappings. Cape Cod chance encounters. A deeply meaningful podcast conversation. and too many nights of revelry and dance to count. You are a special person, and I am so grateful that our lives have overlapped. The earth is better because you are on it, and you work so hard to further improve it every day. Thank you and love you, my dear dear friend.

Beautiful Anu

Lily

On behalf of me, my family, and the world we live in, thank you for being an inspiration to stand up for people (including ourselves!) and spur positive change. And thank you for being an invitation to a good time, for the 30+ years I've known you. I'm so glad you were born! Happy birthday and 50 times the love now and always!

Eleni

Can you remember where we were when that was taken? Bonus points! Hint: habibi...

​

From Cambridge to Kingston, Petworth to Park Slope, Egypt to India, Nairobi, Havana, Mexico City, and so many other places I have since forgotten that you will remind me of, because you are my memory. I'm in awe of how you show up for so many people, and you come prepared -- with the extra costume, the favorite bottle, the thoughtful thing that nobody else remembered to bring. I once climbed on a dining room table to orchestrate a generation to sing happy birthday to you and put an extra candle on the cake so that nobody would know how hilariously young you were during our freshman year. I'll do it again, if my knees let me. So grateful to have you in my life.

Flail

Happiest of milestone birthdays to the undisputed champion and connector of all progressive South Asians and documentarians across the country (and probably the world)! Seriously, there's like two degrees of separation from Anurima in my world. That's a testament to your own leadership, generosity, warmth and affection for activists and creatives. And we all love you back! Welcome to the 50 and over club, my friend! Don't worry, it's a fun pool, so jump on in!

Beth Noujaim

Happy 50th, Anurima! So insane the twists and turns life takes you through. I'll never forget running into you at a bar at 29 in NYC and knowing I knew you somehow. I'll also never forget walking right up to you and telling you that I didn't know how I knew you, but that I liked you and wanted your number. I can't believe you gave it to me because that was weird! I also cannot believe it took us 5 years of hanging and partying and drinking to one day come to the realization during our second martini at the Rubin Museum that we had met at a Soul Asylum concert at Ravinia in Chicago when we were both 16 and had spent the day together and then never had a way of getting in touch again. And you've been there - through all the crazy dating stories, the dinners at your place in Brooklyn, the hangs with your brother, the concerts, the dancing, the marriage, the kids, the travels, the moves, the heartaches, and the losses and the wins. Love your energy and the person you are inside and the friendship you have brought into my life - love our talks and our walks and our meals and our laughs. You're just beginning - can't wait to see how the next 50 turn out for you. Sending you so much love and best wishes on your birthday! Love you.

Madhu

Happy 50th, Anu!

From the day I spotted you draped in a US flag at the 2010 FIFA World Cup, you’ve been my loud, loving, brilliant big sister across continents. From Baku to the US, Cape Town to Hurghada, you’ve been the constant: smart, curious, kind, and always up for an adventure and a curated playlist (and an opinion).

You don’t just make friends – you nurture them, holding people close across time zones, years, and chaos, always showing up with love, humour, and heart. You speak up fiercely for human rights and civil liberties, and still make space to check in, listen, and care deeply.

Here’s to 50 years of you making the world kinder, funnier, and more just — and to many more years of travels, debates, laughter, and big-sister wisdom.

So much love for you, Anu.

Shaheed

ANU!! Happy 50th birthday! I am beyond lucky to have known you and been a part of your life for 26 (!!!) years. You are a truly brilliant and powerful force of nature and you inspire me and so many others with your passion, purpose, kindness, and humility. I am wishing you a wonderful healthy, happy, fun, birthday and many more years to come. xoxo Seema

Anu - happiest of birthdays to my brilliant, funny, generous friend. We've been having adventures together since the very first time we met, 25 years ago in Cape Town.

My sweetest and most amazing Anu,

You are such a bright shining light whose kindness, warmth and energy are boundless. I am so very grateful to be in your orbit and it has been one of the greatest joys and honors of my life to watch you walk in this world and brighten the lives of all you meet. You have been building community since the day I met you (and I suspect long before that as well!) and I know I have hundreds of photos of the magical nights you created. You forged friendships and lifelong relationships during those nights which much like Frederick the mouse, we have stored for winter and they keep us going. I love you so very much. I am, as I have always been, in awe of you and so proud to be your friend. I will find some of those hundreds of photos but this is the most recent, and it makes me smile as it is with your amazing mama. Love you so, my friend. Cannot wait for the adventures of the next 50!

Love, Lindsay

Lindsay Tomenson

Dear Anurima,

What a beautiful occasion to celebrate you and the amazing light you bring into this world. I recall so vividly first meeting at an India Abroad event nearly 20 years ago. I was so drawn to you, immediately, as everyone who knows you understands! And you do not age and you continue to dazzle. I am blessed to know you and am looking forward to the next 20 years. Much love,
Monica

You've had such a huge impact on me, my family, and so many other people's lives. I love you so much and I wish you only the best for the next 50 years!

Nico

Your brains and accomplishments dazzle, no doubt. But it’s your sense of humor and playfulness that I love the most. I know I’m ridiculous ;) but I also know it secretly cracks you up, and that makes me very happy.

As you dream up new creative ways to change the world, don’t forget to stay close to that playful creative energy. It’s one of your superpowers. The world awaits more of your joyful mischief. Here’s to 50 more years of impact and laughing out loud.

Happy Birthday!!
