Tahira Kashyap Khurrana's personal connection

Sharmajee Ki Beti is a dream come true for Tahira, the film's writer and director. This film holds immense personal significance for her for two reasons: first, it is her directorial debut; second, it gives her the chance to delve into a topic that is near and dear to her heart: the empowerment of women. The comedy storyline sheds light on the different perspectives, daily challenges, and successes of middle-class women. The story is very personal to Tahira because each character represents a portion of her own experience. Applause Entertainment and Ellipsis Entertainment have been incredible allies in making her dream a reality, and she couldn't be happier that the film will have its world premiere on Prime Video. Tahira is eagerly anticipating the reactions of people around the world to this authentic slice-of-life story.

Leading cast on their roles

An emotional roller coaster of feelings washed over Sakshi, who plays Jyoti Sharma in the film, when she read the script for the first time. As a tribute to contemporary women, this film touched her deeply at times of despair and hopelessness, as well as at other times of overwhelming delight and pride. Sharmajee Ki Beti conveys a profound message of standing tall and proud of their identities and accomplishments. Struggling to strike a balance between societal expectations and her own desires and ambitions, Jyoti's character reflects the lives of countless women across the globe. She has a husband who is incredibly encouraging and believes in her aspirations, but dealing with her teenage daughter's demands and tantrums is a constant battle. Everyone, not just women, in India and beyond will like the show's hilarious and relatable spin on serious topics like relationships, gender roles, and individuality. The delicate treatment of these topics will resonate with viewers of many backgrounds.

From the viewpoints of several female characters spanning multiple generations, Sharmajee Ki Beti provides a new perspective on the complexities of daily life and relationships. Divya's character Kiran's lovely vulnerability captivated her the moment she read the screenplay. It would appear that she is naturally extremely impulsive, but the challenges she is experiencing in her personal life are causing her to suppress a lot of intense feelings. When playing Kiran, the actor was able to use parts of her acting technique that she hadn't used before. Working with Tahira and bringing this story to life was truly fascinating for Divya, as she had a clear and inspiring vision for the film. 

Sharmajee Ki Beti has been an extraordinary experience, says Saiyami Kher, who plays Tanvi. The moment Tahira told her about the movie, she fell deeply in love with it. Following the story, there was a revitalising sense of well-being. Tanvi's character served as a freeing reminder that we should all be unfettered by society's expectations and pursue our hobbies and goals. The film shows, via Tanvi's narrative, how many of them face comparable challenges, juggling individual goals with social norms. Anyone who has ever felt caught between duty and desire can relate to the story, which ultimately encourages viewers to discover their own way to happiness. Saiyami has faith that everyone who views this moving story on Prime Video will feel something.
