Mumbai, May 2 (NationPress) Actress Puja Banerjee recently embraced her culinary skills on the sets of her latest series ‘Hasratein S2’ by preparing dosas for her fellow cast members.
Reflecting on a memorable behind-the-scenes moment, she recounted, “I recall a scene where my character, Navina, was making and serving dosas to her family. One evening after we finished shooting, I thought it would be fun to whip up some dosas for my co-stars and the crew. What began as a simple idea quickly evolved into a full-fledged dosa party! We gathered around, sharing stories, laughing, and enjoying each other’s company. It was such a touching experience, reminding me how precious it is when your crew transforms into a second family.”
In ‘Hasratein S2,’ Puja plays Navina, a 40-year-old single woman who has devoted her life to meeting others' expectations. Whether as a responsible daughter, a devoted caregiver, or a dedicated professional, she has always placed the needs of those around her before her own desires for love and companionship. This dynamic shifts when an unexpected swipe on a dating app introduces Navina to Arjun—a charming younger man who awakens feelings she thought were long forgotten.
'Hello Zindagi' is the latest episode of the web series anthology 'Hasratein S2,' available on Hungama OTT.
Commenting on her character, Puja Banerjee noted, “Navina represents every woman who has dedicated her life to giving, only to forget what it feels like to receive. For years, she has been the cornerstone of her family—the reliable daughter, sister, teacher, while balancing her professional commitments. However, in her silent sacrifices, she lost touch with her own yearnings.” She continued, “Portraying her made me appreciate how profound it is when a woman finally asserts, ‘I matter too.’ That singular swipe not only led her to a man but also back to her own self.”
“Hasratein Season 2” features Sandeep Kumaar as Arjun and is currently streaming on Hungama OTT.
