5 Best Web Series Female Actors That Bollywood Needs to Watch Out For
With the lines finally blurring
between mainstream cinema and Hindi web
series; there is an ever growing audience base of niche-based content on
digital platforms. Way ahead of baseless Hindi TV serials, there is no actress
with layers of makeup, clichéd dialogues, or revenge plot by a snake for her
lover’s death.
Popular
web series
actors are far more original, on point, and talented than most of the Bollywood
actors, if I may say. Here is a compilation of 5 popular web series female actors that can give any Bollywood
actress a run for her money (Karan Johar or Shoojit Sircar, are you reading
this?) and are a delight to watch on screen:
Nidhi Singh
Tanya, love interest of Mikesh in
The Permanent Roommates, is a sassy young woman ruling the world of Hindi webs series like an ace. The
flamboyant girl portrayed the role of an independent Mumbai girl that lives in
the urban locality and doesn’t fall for mushy romance. Both the character and
the portrayals were so spot on that she went on to star in some Bollywood
movies too.
Angira Dhar
Having starred in Netflix original
‘Love Per Square Feet’ and popular Hindi
web series ‘Bang Baajaa Baaraat’, Angira Dhar is no unfamiliar name with
Indian web series lovers. While she played the role of a conventional Indian
girl looking for a fairy tale romance and her Prince Charming to sweep her off
her feet; she pulled off a jittery bride’s role to the ‘T’ in the latter.
Didn’t all girls relate to her in BBB?
Nidhi Bisht
That’s the beauty of Hindi web series; you don’t need a size
zero figure and stereotypical looks to ace in this department. Nidhi Bisht is
one such example of powerhouse of talent with her unconventional characters in
the series she starred in. from Tanya’s friend in The Permanent Roommates to
TVF’s Chai Sutta Chronicles; is there anything she can’t do? She pulls off
comedies and serious roles with equal ease and conviction.
Aahana Kumra
Aahana Kumra has been the go-to
choice for web series makers when it comes to pulling off unconventional and
edgy roles as she just nails them. From “Lipstick Under My Burkha’ to ‘Official
Chukyagiri’; her portrayal of strong female characters stays in your memory
long after you watch them.
Kusha Kapila
Kusha Kapila is the quintessential
South Delhi girl we all have met in real lives. She is hilarious, cracks
impromptu jokes and nails the digs thrown at each other. From ‘Billi Maasi’ to
her signature ‘Shivoham Shivoham’ prologue; I can’t think of any other
Bollywood actress that can pull this off. Bollywood, are you taking note?
