Actress Apeksha Malviya, known for playing
Fahmaan Khan’s sister Piya in Krishna Mohini, is all set to headline the upcoming television show Jhalee Ki Kahani. Opening up about her journey to her first lead role, Apeksha shared her excitement and gratitude in an exclusive conversation.
“I’m honestly super excited and overwhelmed with emotions right now as this is my very first show as a main lead — a dream I’ve been holding onto and working toward for so long. This moment means the world to me because I’ve given my heart, soul, and countless hours of hard work, auditions, and waiting with faith and patience. It wasn’t easy but I never gave up,” she said.
Describing how landing this role felt like a breakthrough after years of silent struggles, Apeksha continued, “Being chosen for the lead role feels like all those silent struggles have finally found their voice. I truly believe this is just the beginning and I can’t wait to bring this character to life and give it my all and make everyone proud who believed in me. Today when I look back, I see how every struggle, every rejection and every tear was shaping me for this moment. There were days when I felt invisible, when my efforts went unnoticed, when rejections shook my confidence, but deep down I always held onto hope. I reminded myself that the time would come and finally… it has.
I’m really grateful for this opportunity.”
Speaking about her role in Jhalee Ki Kahani, she said, “After playing a negative lead before in Palkon Ki Chhaon Mein 2, finally I’ll be playing the heroine of a show. She is cute, beautiful in and out. I’m sure audience will love and appreciate her and the story.”
Apeksha also expressed gratitude towards the producers and creative team. “I’m thankful to Pradeep sir and Rajesh sir for helping me to live my dreams. The creative team helped me during my audition for this character. I’ve always loved their shows and feel lucky to be part of their upcoming show.”
The show will also feature Vishal Gandhi and Isha Kaloya in key roles.
