TVF’s hit series “Kota Factory” has returned for its third season on Netflix, introducing an ensemble of talented actors, including Urvi Singh, who plays the role of Meenal Parekh. If you’ve been captivated by her performance and want to know more about Urvi, we’ve got you covered.
Who is Urvi Singh?
Urvi Singh, born on September 2, 2002, moved from her hometown of Lucknow to Mumbai after completing the eighth grade. She began her acting career in 2019 and quickly gained fame for her role as Meenal Parekh in “Kota Factory,” which first aired on April 16, 2019. That same year, she made her television debut with a brief role in Zee TV’s “Hamari Bahu Silk.”
A graduate in Commerce, Urvi has starred in several series, including “Firsts,” “The Great Indian Wedding,” and “Butterflies.” She has also appeared in films like “Chill Bro” and “Mr King” and played Young Shabri in Om Raut’s “Adipurush.” Another notable work is her role as Jasmine in the Amazon Mini TV series “Crushed,” which has premiered in four seasons.
The Story Behind Her Iconic Role in Kota Factory
In a 2022 interview with Hindustan Times, Urvi shared an interesting tidbit about her journey. She initially put on braces to correct her teeth, which she felt were hindering her chances in auditions. Ironically, it was this look that landed her the role of Meenal Parekh in “Kota Factory.”
“During the Kota Factory auditions, they were looking for a simple and studious girl. My braces and zero-power specs that I had bought just for style perfectly suited my character, and I bagged the role of Meenal that gave me an identity in the industry,” Urvi admitted.
The Impact of Playing Meenal Parekh
While the role of Meenal Parekh brought her significant recognition, it also led to a unique challenge. Being part of a season-based show means that many people know her by her character’s name, which sometimes leads to being offered similar student roles. However, Urvi continues to embrace her opportunities and showcase her versatility as an actress.
Urvi Singh’s journey from Lucknow to becoming a beloved character in “Kota Factory” is an inspiring story of talent, perseverance, and unexpected twists. Keep an eye on this rising star as she continues to shine in the entertainment industry.
