POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

There was a time when becoming an actor was just a dream I was too scared to say out loud.

And then, somewhere along the way, I decided to stop waiting for the “right time” and actually chase it. I stepped away from what was familiar, put myself back in the room as a student, went through auditions, workshops, rejections, little wins, a lot of uncertainty and kept showing up.

And today, seeing myself be a little part of a film that I once would have only imagined being on the other side of the screen feels very very special ✨🧿

Lust Stories will always hold a special place in my journey, not because it is the destination, but because it is a reminder that a dream can slowly become a reality when you have the courage to keep choosing it.

So grateful to everyone who has been a part of this chapter, for trusting me, teaching me, encouraging me and simply being there along the way ❤️🤍

There is still so much I want to learn. So much I want to experience. So many stories I want to tell.

This is just the beginning. And I can’t wait to see where this dream takes me ✨🧿

We met barely a week before the shoot, and somehow found the chemistry we needed almost instantly. So much love for my CHULBULIS and everything we created together🫠❤️
@beestarke thank you for helping us find the language and rhythm of our characters. Learning from you was such a beautiful experience🫶💫😘
@deepikapoo @chewwzy @sneh.kulkarni @damaniyashita

Kinda chic to get to work w actors you admire and a director you never expected you’d get as your FIRST🧿❤️

Won’t have to ask u to watch lust stories 3
(Guessing u alr have)
But will ask u to def watch my YT bts of this filming (subscribe so u don’t miss more)

So grateful to be a part of such a star cast the workshops the table reads the narration the set

What you’d know if you’ve seen the BTS vlog is that I was EXTREMELY SICK (had the worst sinus n ear pain throughout the shoot days) legit went to the hospital during lunch time one of the days, usurvived on 2 hours of sleep and a bunch of antibiotics

Was a menace and not myself when cameras weren’t rolling loved how Deepika said “u do you” at the most literal moments and told me how I was doing too much (content + emails + work) after packup n during shoots
And Husn for making me realize the character is doing what they are doing not me !! Bhagyashree for complimenting my features and teaching us the dialect and

EVERYONE for telling me how a small role is STILL a role and any amount of screen time is still screen presence and better than none at all !!!

Loved the improv directors are capable of @vishalrbhardwaj
It’s not easy making a film I learnt

The intimacy coach for telling me how I don’t have to do anything I’m not comfortable with and instead have to do what naturally comes to me in my element so that someone from the audience watching feels SEEN and can relate (was so nervous to shoot that then realized my character hasn’t read the book so could skip that)

ADITI Maam for staying back to give cues being such a big actor, Sidharth’s aura and leheja + preparedness !!
both leads speak about everyone they work w in the nicest manner (how to make it look effortless AFTER PUTTING IN UR ALL)

all the wide takes zoom in shots pan close ups retakes EXHUASTING Wait for fans n anaconda ac to be shut off every two mins silence before take this that

Set taught me how to b a g person
But most of all patience
The wait to be on screen was long but equally so on set
Long way to go, groom and garner ❤️

Dua salam takılıya dhoom Dhaam shukriya
Grateful @vishalrbhardwaj @mukeshchhabracc

Dear @vishalrbhardwaj Sir 🪄❤️

I never imagined that I would get to know you, work alongside you, or become a tiny part of the world you create with so much heart, madness, and magic. Thank you for giving me a place in this beautiful journey and for everything I got to learn, experience, and feel along the way. You have no idea how much this means to the little girl in me (kyunki dil toh bachcha hai ji), who is still somewhere giggling with disbelief 🙃 … a little overwhelmed, still pinching herself, and immensely grateful. 🙏I don’t think words will ever be enough to explain what this means to me 💫

[These photographs are more than just BTS pictures for me. I took them because, somewhere in the middle of those long shoot days, I knew I wanted to preserve these little moments… so that I could look back one day and remember, yes, I was there.]

I still can’t quite believe this is something I get to say ❤️
I am a part of Lust Stories 3, and honestly, it feels surreal 🫠
As an actor, getting to step into @vishalrbhardwaj sir’s world was something I never quite knew how to dream of… To be inside his world of storytelling, to observe, learn, and simply be an actor in that space it feels beyond anything I had imagined 🫶
Some core fangirl moments with @rekha_bhardwaj 🥹❤️
Little Husne never imagined she’d one day be a part of her film. Life really does come full circle ♾️
And then there’s Lust Stories 🫠 a franchise I’ve watched, admired, and never imagined I would one day be a part of. My second story with @netflix_in and it feels just as special 🪄
It means more to me than I can probably put into words…
The screening night brought all of it home for me the work, the people, the little moments, the learning 💫 and somewhere between all of it, I found myself a little overwhelmed by the thought that this is now a part of my journey. ♾️

P.S. Moments from the Lust Stories 3 screening ❤️‍🔥 Swipe till the end… 🫶🏽
