The film and television industry may appear to be a bed of roses from the outside, but very few people are privy to the struggles of junior artists because they are usually the ones standing among crowd shots.
But they aspire to be big and well-known in this industry. Colors Bangla’s latest show ‘Nayika No.1’ tells the story of a young artist.
Sheetala Sikdar aka Sheela’s indomitable spirit is unbroken by adversity and struggle because she is confident that one day she will realize her dream of becoming a heroine.
Produced by Snehasis Chakraborty, tells the story of junior artist Sheetala’s dream of becoming a successful heroine Sheela and will premiere on March 6 at 8.30 p.m.
We will see the world of entertainment through Sheetala’s eyes, including its perils, hazards, and humorous elements. Sheetala, the starry-eyed heroine, faces obstacles at every turn, but this does not dampen her determination to become a heroine, the press release from Viacom18 said.
The story revolves around Sheetala aka Sheela, a junior artist, who dreams of becoming a heroine. A confident girl, she never gives up on chasing her dreams even during critical situations in life. She prefers being called Sheela instead of Sheetala as it sounds filmy to her. People love her for her innocence, jovial nature, and positive attitude toward life. Sheetala’s antics and the light moments bring smiles to our faces.
Speaking on the launch of the show, Sagnik Ghosh, Business Head, said, “We have committed ourselves to introduce spunky and interesting characters in Bengali Television. Nayika No.1 showcases the heart-warming story of Sheetala as a junior artist and her invincible spirit of not giving up in the face of adversity. Sheetala is a self-made, confident, and spirited girl. Like spunky Tumpa, righteous Tulsi, overweight Sohag, age difference love story in Indrani, Sheetala’s aspirational journey to Sheela will hit the right chord and fascinate our viewers.”
