Drashti Bhanushali was born January 22, 2010 in Mumbai. She began acting at age three and has been facing the camera ever since.

Drashti is the oldest of two siblings and lives with her sibling in Mumbai.

She shot to fame for her role as Child Sirat Shekhawat in the drama series Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai.

She was later seen in several TV serials like Guddan Tumse Na Ho Payega, Aankh Micholi and others.

She has also appeared in films as young Chanda in Vikram Vedha (2022) and young Nikhat in Yudhra (2024).

She has also worked in several commercials and been the face of many well-known brands.

After a three-year hiatus, Drashti Bhanushali returned to television as Garima in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2.

Recently, her name emerged after TV actor Rohit Chandel was arrested under the POCSO Act for allegedly stalking, harassing, and assaulting a 16-year-old.

Reacting to the news, she told mid-day, “I have no knowledge of the ongoing case and request everyone to stop associating my name with it. I am no longer in touch with the person concerned and have no connection to this matter. It is disappointing that some co-actors are indirectly dragging my name into this issue without knowing the facts. I am not here to support anyone. If legal proceedings are underway, let the judiciary decide the truth.”

Talking of her future projects, Drashti Bhanushali is set to make her debut as a lead in the tentatively titled film, Amrit.
