Ever since her first outing Dangal, Sanya Malhotra has given back-to-back successful and thought-provoking films. Be it Pataakha, Photograph or Ludo, the actress proved her mettle of acting prowess and sense of fine choosing material with each film. Her last offering Pagglait was also a beautiful tale of grief, dreams, and life.

Known for getting into the skin of every character, Radhika Madan has established herself in the powerhouse performers of the industry. Hailing from the television, the actress made a smashing debut with Pataakha and has been unstoppable since then. Angrezi Medium or Ray, Radhika has always made sure to deliver a message through her performance. 

Fatima Sana Shaikh rose to fame with Dangal by essaying the role of Geeta Phogat. Leaving the audience and critics mighty impressed, the actress later gave some nuanced performances in rather complex films like Ludo and Ajeeb Dastaans. Well, we can't wait to know what the stunner has to offer next!

Joining the bandwagon is the terrific Elnaaz Norouzi. The actress proved her love for challenging roles by choosing to debut with Zoya of Sacred Games. After giving a terrific performance in Hello Charlie, the versatile actress is now making noise for gracefully portraying a Cam-Girl in Chutzpah. Touted as the new-age versatile actress, Elnaaz has a knack for choosing powerful characters.
