Shweta Basu Prasad has never settled for conventional cinema. After featuring in films like 'Makdee' (2002)and 'Iqbal' (2005), she has signed a string of clutter-breaking projects, including Zee Theatres’ teleplay, 'Kusum Manohar Lele', 'Gudiya Ki Shaadi', and 'Gunehgaar', which is available across top DTH platforms. 

Discussing her work on 'Gunehgaar', she says, “[My character] Mrinalini is not easy to read, and that is what I found intriguing about her. Beyond the veneer of a confident, successful journalist, she is ambiguous. It was interesting to play a woman who is neither completely good, nor irrevocably bad.”
