RESHMA POLEKAR

 

Reshma Polekar is a familiar face of the 90s. She has worked in many television serials and advertisements. 90s was the time when suspense thriller serials like The Zee Horror Show, Maano ya na maano, Saturday Suspense, X-Zone, C.I.D. or Aahat were quite popular. Apart from suspense thriller serials, drama series like Rishtey were also very popular which has new story in every episode. There are high chances that you must have watched her in these serials.

90s tv actors' details and photographs are available easily so recently I tried to find her on the internet but I could not find details about her career on the prominent sites like Wikipedia and IMDB. Besides there is no correct photograph of her available either. This was quite shocking for me. That's why I tried to write a few lines about her in my blog.

 

 

Reshma has worked in 13+ stories of Aahat Season one. This was the golden time of Aahat and you can find her in some of the great stories of the serial. One of the episodes was 'The Telephone' where she played the role of a doctor who starts facing bizarre events in her clinic because of a tragedy that happened there with the previous doctor. The story has great artist of Marathi film industry, Sandeep Kulkarni. The story is gripping and the suspense is formed extraordinarily. If you see the name of the Episode Director carefully, you will find the name 'Sriram Raghvan', the director of amazing suspense thriller movies like Ek Haseena Thi, Johnny Gaddar, Badlapur and Andhadhun.
