In Undekhi, Shruthy Menon essayed the role of Deepika, a composed yet formidable force operating in high-stakes situations within the inner circles of power.

Speaking about her role and her experience working with Ashish R Shukla, Shruthy Menon shared, “I felt incredibly grateful to have landed this role; playing Deepika was an amazing journey. Her story carried a strong character arc, and that evolution was especially exciting for me as an actor. It was fascinating to explore someone so powerful and complex. Working with Ashish Shukla was equally rewarding, he is one of the brightest minds I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with. His understanding of the script is deeply ingrained, and the way he explained a scene, even through a brief demonstration, was truly mesmerizing. Beyond that, he remained calm and composed no matter the pressure on set, which was incredibly inspiring. It was a privilege to work with someone like him.”

Shruthy also fondly recalled the camaraderie on set and the many memorable moments from the shoot. “One of the most special aspects of working on Undekhi was the bond we all shared. Coming into an already close-knit team could have been intimidating, but everyone was incredibly warm and welcoming, it never felt like I was new. All of us actors grew really close, spending time together even outside of shoots, especially during our schedule in Manali. We hung out often, just laughing and building genuine friendships. Even during screenings, we cheered for each other like a family. That kind of bond and energy is very rare, and it made the entire experience truly unforgettable for me.”
