Medha Shankar: I stand by the message of Shaadisthan

Actor Medha Shankar, who was a part of Gurinder Chadha’s British series Beecham House, recently made her feature debut with Shaadisthan (on Hotstar). 

The film stars Kirti Kulhari as a musician and Medha as a young girl whose family wants to get her engaged against her wishes.

Talking about her character, Medha shares, “Arshi is a regular 17-year-old Bombay girl with average dreams of going to college, making a name for herself, having fun with her friends and living a free life like any other 17-year-old. To prepare for my character, I created a personal, social and emotional life for her as a means to give a certain wholeness to her being and to understand her more deeply as a person. I strongly believe in and stand by the message the film sends out.”

Medha's upcoming projects include a web series for Hotstar called Those Pricey Thakur Girls.

Previously, she was seen in Beecham House and TVF’s Sketches. She has also done commercials for several brands.
