Known for her powerful performance in the Star Plus show Dahleez, talented television actress Tridha Choudhury has bagged yet another plum role.

The actress, who has previously starred in such digital series as Spotlight and Dulha Wanted, has been finalized to play a pivotal part in Amazon Prime Video’s upcoming India original Bandish Bandits.


The series, which was commissioned by the streaming media giant just a couple of weeks ago, is being produced by well-known producers Anand Tiwari and Amritpal Singh under the banner of Still and Still Media Collective.

For the uninitiated, Bandish Bandits will be a musical drama. It will boast of an impressive cast. The makers are currently busy finalizing actors for key roles.

Some of the actors have already been locked, including Ritwik Bhowmik and Shreya Singh Chaudhry. Naseeruddin Shah, Kunaal Roy Kapur, Rituraj K. Singh, Sanjay Nath and Meghna Malik will also be seen in important roles.

Talking about Tridha’s role in the series, she has been cast to play a singer who is half-Belgian and half-Indian. Her character is good at the Western style of singing but eventually goes on to sing the Eastern classical.

“Tridha’s character will also go on to have love connect with the main boy, essayed by Ritwik Bhowmik,” a source reveals.

The series is expected to begin production soon.
