Esha Gupta to the rescue

Esha Gupta

She kicked off her digital innings with the second instalment of RejectX in 2020 and followed it up with Nakaab early this year. Enjoying the new found prominence in the OTT space, Esha Gupta has now been signed on for two more projects - Invisible Woman opposite Suniel Shetty and the third season of the Bobby Deol-starrer Ashram.

Prakash Jha's debut web series follows the journey of conman-turned-godman Kashipur Waale Baba Nirala (Deol's character) and his misdeeds for two seasons. The culmination of the third season is suspected to bring out the skeletons out of the closet. Gupta, a new addition to the edition, has been roped in to play Baba's image corrector. The actor, who recently wrapped up her schedule for the series says, "I play an image manager [in the show]. The role is unlike any I have essayed on screen. It is exciting to get into the skin of a character that challenges me." While Jha and writer Habib Faisal outlined the character in detail, the actor took up the role after a "good amount of research".
