Aditi Sharma: Apollena feels incredibly personal to me.

Actor Aditi Sharma has always embraced challenging roles that push her limits both as an actor and an individual. From portraying a college student to diving into complex characters, Aditi continues to explore uncharted territory in her career. In her latest role as Apollena in COLORS' Apollena – Sapno Ki Unchi Udann, she takes this passion for new challenges to extraordinary heights.

The show follows the journey of Apollena, a young woman resolute in fulfilling her late father's dream of reaching the stars. Determined to clear his name and shed the label "gaddar ki beti," Apollena aims to become India's first female astronaut. For Aditi, the role resonates deeply with her childhood dreams.

Reflecting on the experience, Aditi shares, "This character feels incredibly personal to me. It's not just acting—it's like I'm channelling a part of my dreams. As a child, I would often gaze at the stars, imagining myself among them. Playing Apollena is my way of living that dream. She symbolizes countless girls' aspirations to achieve the impossible."

Despite the demanding physicality of wearing the astronaut suit, Aditi finds joy and purpose in portraying Apollena. She explains, "The suit is heavy and restrictive, but every time I wear it, I feel closer to Apollena's dream. Bringing her story to life has been an exhilarating and challenging process that I hope will inspire others to chase their goals, no matter how out of reach they may seem."
