Shaylee Krishen: 'The Last Hour' will always be extremely special to me

Shaylee Krishen

Newcomer Shaylee Krishen was initially hesitant about essaying an intense and mysterious role in The Last Hour. She plays Sanjay Kapoor and Raima Sen's daughter, Pari, in the Amazon Prime Video series. Her character is searching for the truth and seeking answers to several questions in Amit Kumar's supernatural crime thriller. The Kashmir-born actor was spotted by cinematographer Ravi Varman, who clicked her portfolio, and circulated her pictures among industry folk. Krishen will next be seen in South films, including Santosh Sivan's Moha and TK Rajeev Kumar's Bermuda. Though she is pursuing her acting aspirations, she hopes to be a filmmaker in the future. The upcoming show stars Sanjay Kapoor, Karma Takapa, Shahana Goswami, Shaylee Krishen, Raima Sen, Robin Tamang and Mandikini Goswami in prominent roles.

The trailer of The Last Hour takes absolutely no time to capture the viewer's attention as it builds intrigue right from the word go. We see Arup, a newly transferred seasoned city cop (essayed by Sanjay Kapoor) put in charge of tracking down a mysterious killer in a small Himalayan town. Unable to get to the bottom of the investigation, he ropes in Dev, a mysterious, young Shaman (played by Karma Takapa) as his local informant, who has a secret gift of communicating with the dead in their last hour, to solve the case. Arup finds himself lost in a maze only to find out that there exist a host of hidden secrets that will change his life forever. With the past wreaking havoc in the present, this show sets the premise for a fascinating watch that's going to have viewers hooked to their screens.

Shaylee Krishen talking about the show said, "I am making my digital debut with The Last Hour, and this show will always be extremely special to me because I can relate to my character Pari very well- a young girl who is standing in the darkness, wondering, thinking, fearing and doubting everything. Born and brought up in Kashmir, I have had a turbulent childhood, so that really helped me in playing Pari. It has been an amazing learning experience for me and I am very thankful to our director Amit Kumar for the trust he placed in me."
