After her breakout role in Made in Heaven 2 (2023), actor and doctor Trinetra Haldar Gummaraju returns to the screen with her second project, the psychological thriller, Kankhajura. The SonyLIV series - also starring Mohit Raina, Roshan Mathew, and Sarah Jane Dias - is the official adaptation of the Israeli series, Magpie.

The show follows two estranged brothers, forced to revisit their haunted past as memories twist into a dangerous reality. Haldar plays a Catholic trans woman from Goa who finds herself entangled in a dark mystery. She says working with Mathew - her on-screen partner - was a dream collaboration. "With Roshan, it was wonderful and also a little scary as I am a huge fan of his work in Malayalam and Hindi cinema. I was a bundle of nerves just being on set with him. He has generous energy as a co-actor," she shares. Despite her initial nerves, their on-screen chemistry and off-screen camaraderie quickly found a rhythm.
Thrilled by the roles coming her way, she adds, "The volume of roles that are coming in now are interesting. There is more curiosity and openness to casting me."
