Emotional moments poured out as Rhea Chakraborty announced her acting comeback after seven long years, thrilling Bollywood enthusiasts. Through an Instagram video posted Wednesday, the actress bared her soul, sharing the thrill and tears of returning to what she loves most.
Choking back tears, Rhea shared that it’s been seven years since she last set foot on a set. Her passion, however, stands timeless. In her caption, she reminisced, ‘Seven years away from sets, but still that 17-year-old dreamer who landed in Mumbai. Part of me progressed, part waited patiently—welcome to life’s Chapter 2.’
She wisely observed that life defies our plans, a sentiment that has defined her rollercoaster ride in the industry.
Fans are ecstatic, showering her post with messages of encouragement and excitement. Rhea’s journey started early: from MTV’s ‘Teen Diva’ in 2009 making her a VJ sensation, to acting in Telugu’s ‘Tuniga Tuniga’ (2012) and Hindi’s ‘Mere Dad Ki Maruti’ (2013). Her resume includes a mix of films and television before the sabbatical.
Slated for Netflix’s ‘Family Business,’ the series is a tense narrative of corporate warfare, familial ties, and treachery. Under Hansal Mehta’s masterful direction, it stars Anil Kapoor and Vijay Varma together for the first time, with Neha Dhupia, Anant Nag, Konkona Sen Sharma, Kanwaljit Singh, Akash Khurana, Dhruv Sehgal, Nandish Sandhu, and Tina Desai rounding out the impressive cast.
Rhea’s heartfelt re-entry underscores themes of perseverance and renewal. As ‘Family Business’ gears up, it promises edge-of-the-seat drama, with Rhea at the heart of it, proving that true calling always calls back.
