Summary
- Sehgal transitioned from advertising to long-form acting in Kohrra.
- She values performing in her mother tongue, Punjabi, for the show.
- Workshops with Rannvijay Singha fostered greater vulnerability and presence.

Actor Neeru Sehgal, previously recognized for over 40 advertising campaigns, has transitioned to long-form storytelling with her role as Loveleen in Kohrra Season 2, now available on Netflix. This series marks her debut on the platform, with Sehgal particularly cherishing the opportunity to perform in her mother tongue, Punjabi.
Sehgal finds her character, Loveleen, to be a reflection of her own values, emphasizing love and loyalty. The shift from the precision of 30-second commercials to the depth of a web series allowed her to inhabit a character fully, fostering vulnerability and emotional connection with the audience.
Preparation for the role involved intensive workshops and discussions with directors Sudip Sharma and Faisal Rahman. Sehgal meticulously built Loveleen's backstory, focusing on nuanced details. Acting workshops with Rannvijay Singha proved transformative, encouraging her to embrace authenticity and instinct over performance.
Reflecting on her career, Sehgal notes that early experiences working alongside stars like Ranveer Singh and Mahesh Babu in advertisements taught her discipline and humility, easing her transition to larger productions like Kohrra.
Kohrra Season 2, created by Gunjit Chopra, Diggi Sisodia, and Sudip Sharma, premiered on February 11 and is set in Punjab. The season introduces a new mystery and expands the narrative, featuring Mona Singh, Barun Sobti, Rannvijay Singha, Pooja Bhamrrah, Anurag Arora, and Prayrak Mehta.
Looking ahead, Sehgal desires roles that challenge her with emotional complexity and layered characters, seeking stories that feel authentic and human, prioritizing depth over the scale of the role.
