In her very first attempt at a teleplay, actress Hina Khan made her acting debut in Shadyantra for Zee5 and Zee Theatre. The actress, who has always worked in film, television, and online, chose a different route this year to investigate a whole other media.
Shadyantra is a play produced as a teleplay for the internet that captivates with its original format and strong acting. Hina excels in the role of the feisty Natasha. Natasha is trapped in the web of deceit spun by her husband Rohan Tiwari (Chandan Roy Sanyal). He intends to murder her. While also attempting to protect her husband’s innocent lover who becomes embroiled in the family drama.
While Hina, who comes from a different line of employment, astounds us all with her powerful performance. Chandan, a theatre actor, shines out with a spectacular performance. The teleplay is doing well for its first attempt on OTT. And side performances by Kunaal Roy Kapoor, Shruti Bapna, and Anang Desai add zest to the proceedings.
With her acting versatility over the years, Hina has consistently astounded us. The actress has once again shown that she can fit into any format of content provided to her, whether it be TV, OTT, films, or now her first foray into the stage with a teleplay.
Thus, the Shadyantra is a tale of avarice, ambition, self-preservation, and retaliation. Zee5 is where you may view it.
