Swara plays a charming English teacher in digital series Rasbhari

Riding high on the success of her latest film, Veere Di Wedding, immensely talented actress Swara Bhasker is now looking forward to the release of an upcoming digital series, titled Rasbhari. Made under the banner of Applause Entertainment, the series sees the actress in the role of a charming English teacher, Shanoo madam.

"I am always looking for roles that challenge me and satisfy my pursuit of creativity. Rasbhari has been an amazing experience. With Shanoo I was able to enjoy a role rarely seen on screen and I truly hope that her story is able to shine a light on today’s society,” says Swara.


The coming-of-age series unfolds in the Hindi hinterland and revolves around a standard 11 student who is besotted with his English teacher. Not just he; in fact, the whole male population of the town is enamoured with her bewitching beauty. The series is directed by Nikhil Bhat.

Praising the team and the whole cast, Sameer Nair, CEO of Applause Entertainment, says, “I cannot praise Shantanu’s sparkling writing enough. With his delectable turn of phrase, delightful local dialect and wicked sense of humour, every character in this ‘coming-of-age’ love story comes alive. Headlining a terrific cast of actors, Swara plays the stern English teacher who is the object of attraction for not only our young hero but for the entire male population of Meerut. Director Nikhil Bhat and producer Tanveer Bookwala have truly created a gem.”
