Adrija Roy as Palki in Kundali Bhagya

Zee TV's popular fiction drama, Kundali Bhagya, has been entertaining audiences with interesting twists and turns in the lives of Preeta (Shraddha Arya), Karan (Shakti Anand), Rajveer (Paras Kalnawat), Palki (Adrija Roy) and Shaurya (Baseer Ali). Adrija Roy's role in Kundali Bhagya has brought a refreshing twist to the show's storyline. 

What makes Adrija's journey particularly intriguing is her unconventional path to the world of acting. Before gracing the screen, she was deeply committed to pursuing a career in athletics, driven by her parents' aspirations. However, fate intervened, leading her to discover her passion for the entertainment industry.

Adrija's transition from sports to television reflects her resilience and adaptability. Her unexpected entry into acting has injected new energy into Kundali Bhagya, offering viewers a fresh perspective on the narrative. It's a story that underscores the importance of following one's passions and embracing new opportunities, no matter where life's journey may lead.

Adrija Roy said, "My parents wanted me to become an athlete, in fact, I have played at the national level in West Bengal and received medals in sprinting. During my college days, after participating in the annual function and theatre, I realized that I wanted to try making my career in acting. I believe that was the turning point in my life. Being part of these fests, I fathomed that acting is something I enjoy, which led to, me giving various auditions. Eventually, the hobby turned into a passion, and my hard work paid off. My parents weren't happy at first, but eventually, they accepted my decision. Life has its own way of leading us to where we belong. It was initially difficult to move to Mumbai from Kolkata, but all's well that ends well."

She further added, "For me to become an athlete, was something that my parents always wanted me to do. But now they are thrilled to see me as an actor and play the beautiful role of Palki in Kundali Bhagya. It is a stepping stone for me to turn my dreams into reality and I am really happy how my journey is panning out."
