The actress says OTT platforms entered the entertainment scene with a great promise, and is happy that the promise continues to stand tall. “For me, the coming of streaming services has been the most promising change since the time I started working.

The 39-year-old dded, “And, therefore, fail to reach the audiences. I feel the streaming space changed that. It gave actors like me an opportunity to do a variety of good quality work and also gave us access to a wide audience”.
Looking ahead, the Adhura star is confident that things are moving in the right direction. “The streaming space is a constantly evolving one. And like any other, there is the good and bad here too. [However], I feel the streaming space is largely still a healthy, competitive and fairly democratic one. I am hoping that doesn't change,” she shared.
