After doing small roles in Baaghi 2 (2018) and Batti Gul Meter Chalu (2018), Shriyam Bhagnani has landed a leading part in Nagesh Kukunoor's upcoming web series. "There is so much to learn and absorb on Nagesh sir's set," she says. Shriyam is producer Vashu Bhagnani's brother Deepak's daughter. Despite being associated with a film family, she has charted her own path in B-Town.

Shriyam trained under acting guru Barry John and worked as an assistant on several films. About the nepotism debate, she says, "It is unfair to generalise the industry as a whole. If you're talented, you'll find the right platform. Ultimately, only talent rules."
