Ruchi Malviya bags new feature film: We should start shooting post July

Actor Ruchi Malviya (Flip, Mukesh Jasoos) has bagged a new feature film. She also has another web show in the offing.

“There is a web show in the lineup, too soon to talk about it. I have also auditioned for a feature film, hopefully, it goes ahead and the covid situation gets better. We should start shooting post-July,” Ruchi shares.

Ruchi essays a social media influencer in Mukesh Jasoos on Disney+ Hotstar. Her character, Sulekha, is married to the protagonist Mukesh, played by Rahul Bagga. Ruchi says she’s completely the opposite of the character she plays in Mukesh Jasoos.

“It takes a lot for me to make a post, in fact I have just about learnt how to make an Instagram reel. Let me tell you I have never done any live videos in my entire life. The body language, characterisation and mannerism are widely different. Although one thing that’s common between me and the character is the confidence with which we do things.”

Like other influencers, Sulekha in the series is forever on the hunt of trying to make content out of everything.

“The fact that she knows she comes from a humble background and doesn’t have a lot of opportunities she tried to create some stuff out of everyday mundane life,” Ruchi explains. “But at the same time she takes immense pride in her content and knows what she’s doing is of substance since she has a vast follower base! And she tries to show off her social media presence everywhere she goes."
