In the glitzy world of Bollywood, where names are often born on screen and shine under the paparazzi flashlights, Drisha Acharya remains one such unique individual – a star in her own right. She is not a glamorous actor who looks for the light of the camera but rather a corporate professional whose career has shone equally bright in both the spheres of the world-renowned Bimal Roy’s cinematic heritage and the illustrious Deol family of Indian films.
As the wife of the actor Karan Deol, Sunny Deol’s son and Dharmendra’s grandson, she may have stepped into the Deols’ family with humility and respect for the privacy of it, yet the truth about her is too interesting to go unnoticed. Drisha comes from an influential business family in Dubai and is associated with the heritage of Bimal Roy and Basu Bhattacharya films, yet has chosen a corporate professional route over the glamour of cinema.
