Megha Prasad makes a stormy entry into Kumkum Bhagya as Sonalika
Beloved show - Kumkum Bhagya - continues to deliver high voltage drama with evolving relationships and emotional twists, keeping viewers hooked to their TV screens. Recently, just as Shivansh (Namik Paul) and Prarthana (Pranali Rathod) were beginning to move past their differences, their past returned with Sonalika coming back into Shivansh's life. Making a stormy entry into the show is popular television actress Megha Prasad, who steps into the role of antagonist Sonalika, replacing Roopam Sharma who played the part earlier. Megha, known for her impactful roles, stepped into the pivotal character with remarkable ease. With a strong screen presence, emotional depth, and confident portrayal of layered characters, Megha is all set to bring refreshing yet intense energy to Sonalika. And as Sonalika returns to Shivansh and Prathana's lives, she forms a secret alliance with Raunak (Akshay Dev Bindra) - whose grudges make him an ideal accomplice. With Raunak fueling the fire and Sonalika tugging at emotional strings, the couple's newfound understanding is about to be tested and how! Speaking about the role, Megha Prasad said, 'Playing Sonalika has been an incredibly special experience for me. She's bold, emotional, and completely unapologetic about what she wants. I love that she's not trying to be perfect. She knows her flaws and uses them as her strength. Teaming up with Raunak brings a whole new dynamic—it's not just drama, its strategy, emotion, and a little bit of danger. As an actor, it's been fun and challenging to explore her range of emotions, her jealousy, and her confidence. It is exciting to play a role that's layered, unpredictable, and deeply human. I can't wait for the audience to see what's coming.' Nikhil makes entry in Tannu's life in Kumkum Bhagya
