Renuka Shahane: “Pushplata is Unlike Any Role I’ve Played Before”

Veteran actress Renuka Shahane, who plays Pushplata, the village sarpanch, shared her excitement about the series.

“Pushplata is unlike anything I’ve done before. She is strong-willed yet endearing, and playing her has expanded my skills as an actor. ‘Dupahiya’ is a heartland comedy that beautifully showcases small-town aspirations. I cannot wait for audiences across India and the world to watch it on March 7,” she said.

Shivani Raghuvanshi: “Playing Roshni Jha Was a Joy”

Shivani Raghuvanshi, known for her role in Made in Heaven, plays Roshni Jha, the bride at the heart of the story.
