“I have undertaken a substantial role as a parallel protagonist in the web series. My character, Meneka, is an exceptionally ambitious modern woman, engaged to Lakhan’s stepbrother. Displaying a resolute and determined disposition, my character encapsulates the very spirit of a present-day woman, striving to forge her unique journey in a swiftly evolving society. I am an individual for whom acting revolves around the power of belief.

Sharing her experience of working with actor Ravie Dubey, she adds,
“Certainly, without any exaggeration, I must say that working with Ravie Dubey has been an immensely enriching experience. He stands out as one of the most exceptionally skilled and talented actors I have had the privilege of collaborating with. His dedication to his craft is palpable, and his creative approach coupled with his relentless work ethic truly set him apart.

About her do and don’ts as an actor, she says,
“I firmly believe in adhering to certain guiding principles. On the positive side, my ‘do’s’ encompass the vital practice of maintaining honesty with oneself. This involves staying true to my artistic journey, continually exploring my range, and acknowledging my strengths and areas of growth. Moreover, I emphasize the importance of cultivating respect both for myself and all those who are part of this dynamic profession. On the flip side, my ‘don’ts’ revolve around a resolute avoidance of taking anything for granted. I firmly stand against complacency and the notion that anything in this field comes effortlessly. Recognising the value of hard work, dedication, and continuous learning is crucial. This extends to not underestimating the opportunities presented and always striving for improvement.”
OTT has changed the definition of entertainment. Agreeing, she says that the rise of OTT platforms has brought about a profound transformation in the entertainment industry of India, reshaping the very essence of how we perceive and engage with content.
Aradhana also adds,
“One of the most notable impacts of OTT platforms lies in their diverse and extensive content offerings. Unlike conventional television and cinema, OTT platforms deliver a vast array of content spanning various genres, formats, and languages. This multiplicity caters to a wide spectrum of tastes and preferences, enabling viewers to access a plethora of options at their convenience. OTT platforms have catalysed a remarkable shift in the creative landscape. Content creators now experience an unprecedented level of creative freedom, liberated from the constraints often associated with traditional media. This empowerment has led to the production of innovative, boundary-pushing narratives that resonate with audiences seeking novel and unconventional storytelling. These platforms have bridged the gap between nations, allowing Indian content to transcend borders and reach a global audience. This not only serves as a testament to the rich cultural tapestry of India but also presents an opportunity for content creators to garner international recognition and appreciation. OTT platforms have redefined the concept of convenience and on-demand access.”
