Shriya Pilgaonkar made her Bollywood debut with Shah Rukh Khan’s Fan, backed by Yash Raj Films (YRF). Since then, she has carved a niche for herself with standout performances in Mirzapur, Guilty Minds, and Taaza Khabar. Recently, she teased a reunion with YRF, and reports now confirm that she is set to star in ‘Mandala Murders‘.
According to a recent Bollywood Hungama report, Shriya is set to appear in an episode of YRF and Netflix’s upcoming series, Mandala Murders. A source close to the project revealed that the actress will be seen in a never-seen-before avatar, adding to the excitement surrounding the show.
“Her character will be a surprise element in the series, and we are excited to see her bring it to life,” the source was quoted as saying.
Nearly a week back that the actress shared a multi-picture post on her Instagram. “Feb in fragments Work + Weddings + Workouts,” the post was captioned. In the first picture, the Mirzapur actress was seen sitting in her make-up room while she was reading a script backed by Aditya Chopra’s Yash Raj Films.
‘Mandala Murders’ stars Vaani Kapoor, Surveen Chawla, and Vaibhav Raj Gupta in key roles. The gripping thriller series is set to release later in 2025. However, recent reports suggest that director Gopi Puthran and his team have resumed filming, despite wrapping up the main shoot earlier this year.
According to a Mid-Day report, ‘Mandala Murders’ stars Vaani Kapoor as a detective investigating a series of murders. The show is set to be an ambitious project, blending intense action with intricate storytelling. An insider revealed that during editing, the creators felt certain scenes needed refinement to heighten the thriller’s suspense and depth.
The series was officially announced earlier this year with a teaser during a special event hosted by the streaming platform.
