Chaudhuri grew up in an intellectual [[Bengali people|Bengali]] family who were very attached to tradition. From her earliest childhood, many different and formative experiences influenced her. Firstly in [[India]], where she was regularly exposed to [[History of Hinduism|Hindu history]] and numerous trips to the mountains and the sea. Before her culture shock upon arrival in the West, Chaudhuri discovered western Indian culture at the faculty of [[Fine Arts in Baroda]].

She then left for Europe, where she studied at [[Saint Martins School of Art]] in [[London]] and afterwards, the [[Ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts de Paris]]. Chaudhuri has experienced many different important and culturally diverse moments in time: London in the sixties; the magic of discovering Paris; her mentor and master, Hayter; May 68 in Paris; [[Amsterdam]] in the seventies. During this time, the artist traveled extensively between Europe and the sub continent.

Chaudhuri has exhibited in many shows in India, Europe and Japan. Her works are in public collections such as the [[National Gallery of Modern Art]] in [[New Delhi]], the [[Victoria and Albert Museum]] in [[London]],<ref>{{cite web |title=Faruck un coup de vent |publisher=Victoria and Albert Museum |url=http://collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O174097/faruck-un-coup-de-vent-print-chaudhuri-anju/ |accessdate=13 October 2017}}</ref> at the [[Bronx Museum]] in [[New York City|New York]], at the [[Fonds Régional d’Art Contemporain]] and at the [[Musée de la Réunion]].
