Actress Sherleen Dutt, who has been a part of ‘KINK’ and ‘Honey Trap Squad’ and was recently seen in the web series Koi Jaye Toh Le Aaye, is back with a brand new web series Shringarika. The actress adds that while she was aware the series would have its own challenges, she was deeply intrigued by the storyline, and wanted to be part of it. “I chose Shringarika because the story is really unique and interesting. It revolves around Shingarika, a king, and his 65 queens, which is such a fresh and entertaining concept. Unlike my past projects, this one blends comedy, drama, and historical elements in a very engaging way. The script instantly caught my attention, and I knew it would be a fun challenge to be a part of it,” she says. Talking about her character, she says, “I play one of the queens, and my character has a speech impairment, which makes her even more funny and endearing. She is a very positive and light-hearted character, always bringing a cheerful energy to the scenes. What makes her special to me is how unique she is—I haven’t played a character like this before, and it allowed me to explore comedy in a new way.”

Ask her what was the most challenging part of playing her character, and she says, “The most challenging part was speaking shudh Hindi while also maintaining her way of speaking. It required a lot of practice to get the comic timing right without making it look overdone. Sometimes, my dialogues were already funny, and with my character’s speech style, it became even funnier—so much so that the whole set would burst into laughter! There were times when I couldn’t control my laughter while delivering certain lines.” Working with Vishal Kotian and Aakansha Puri in the show was amazing, she says, adding, “Vishal Kotian is full of energy and always keeps the set lively, while Aakansha Puri is so graceful and professional. Both of them were really supportive, and we had a great time shooting together. The entire team had great chemistry, which made the process even more enjoyable.” As for the feedback, the audience is loving her in the show. “The response has been really positive! People are loving the humour and finding my character very entertaining. Many have reached out to say that my role adds a unique charm to the series, and that makes me really happy. Seeing the audience enjoy and appreciate my work is the best feeling.” She adds, “I’m really grateful for the love and appreciation Shringarika has received. It’s always fulfilling to see people connect with your work and enjoy the effort you’ve put in. The response has been great so far, and I hope it continues to grow! I just want to thank everyone who has watched Shringarika and supported it. It’s a special project for me, and I’m so glad people are enjoying it. There’s a lot more fun and entertainment coming up, so stay tuned!”
