5 TV Bahus Who Changed Their Conservative Screen Image For The Internet

They play strictly sari-clad bahus and girl-next-door roles on TV shows. Perhaps to make a complete break from that image when they’re on a vacation, actors Roop Durgapal, Rishina Kandhari, Sriti Jha, and Sonarika Bhadoria have posted pictures on Instagram that might be called “steaming hot”. The Internet has lapped it up, with all of these photos — the latest ones are of Roop and Rishina — going viral on the Internet, the exact effect that they were meant to have.

Rishina Kandhari: Diya Aur Baati Hum actor Rishina Kandhari posted a picture on Instagram with her husband Vishal Kandhari. The actor is in a bikini and the couple can be seen frolicking in the swimming pool. Rishina captioned the picture: “Let’s slay this summer like a Boss !! #SummerGoals #PoolPlay #slay #ThrowbackThursday #NewLove #sportycouple (sic).” The actor played the role of IPS Arpita Khanna on the show, which recently ended. She also played princess Khyati in Devon Ke Dev... Mahadev.

Roop Durgapal: Balika Vadhu actor Roop Durgapal recently posted some holiday pictures in a bikini that took the Internet by storm. The actor was in Goa, and she posted pictures in the hotel and at the beach, showing off her svelte figure. The actor played the role of Saanchi on the show and is currently seen in the serial Gangaa.

Rubina Dilaik: The actor, who plays the role of a transgender in the serial Shakti - Astitva ke Ehsaas Ki, posted a hot picture in a bikini a few months ago. Also known for her lead role in the show Choti Bahu and its sequel, Rubina Dilaik was captured on the camera by her boyfriend and actor Abhinav Shukla. She has often shared many bold pictures on Instagram. A recent beach picture that she posted was captioned: “I believe that each and every one of us has an incredible amount of choice in the way our lives ultimately unfold and it is by our ‘specific choices’ that our ultimate destinies are created!”

Sriti Jha: Kumkum Bhagya actor Sriti Jha’s rumoured boyfriend, actor Kunal Karan Kapoor, posted Sriti’s picture in a bikini, with her friends in Thailand, in January this year. Sriti was there to celebrate New Year with Kunal and other friends. The actor, who plays the role of Pragya in the show, was spotted in a sizzling bikini for the first time.

Sonarika Bhadoria: Sonarika Bhadoria, who is known for playing the deity Parvati in Devon Ke Dev... Mahadev, often posts bold pictures on Instagram. In May last year, she was trolled for sharing a bikini picture on Instagram. She deleted it, hit back at the trolls, and then posted it again. Since then, she has not shied away from sharing more bikini pictures on Instagram.
