Actor Ruchi Malviya has bagged a lead the new Disney+ Hotstar’s series Mukesh Jasoos.

Ruchi has previously appeared in Flip, a series directed by Bejoy Nambiar and streaming on Eros Now, and Alt Balaji's show The Verdict, directed by Ken Ghosh. In her new show, Ruchi plays a social media influencer. She’s cast opposite actor Rahul Bagga who plays Mukesh. 

Talking about her role, Ruchi said, "The character I play in this show is completely opposite to what I am in real life which made it more interesting for me. I play this girl who comes from a very humble background and is married to an extremely simple and down-to-earth man called Mukesh. She is a girl with big aspirations, yet very innocent and vulnerable."

Veteran actor Poonam Dhillon plays the role of Ruchi’s mother in the show. Speaking about her co-actor, Ruchi said, “It was a fabulous experience working with such talented and experienced actors. Just sharing the same screen space with Poonam ma’am felt enriching. Just watching her act and delivering her dialogues with such finesse was a learning experience.” 

The 20-episode series will be released on Disney+ Hotstar on May 7. The show is a part of the new Disney+ Hotstar vertical called #DisneyPlusHotstarQuix.
