However, in ‘Life Hill Gayi,’ she explains that the character has been given more depth and complexity. “I have portrayed this character…so in a way, I understand why I was chosen for the role,” Kapila said. “What I really love about the show is how it humanizes the character.” According to Kapila, while her character may have been initially inspired by her online persona, the writers and directors worked to make it more relatable and emotional. “You cannot be as cartoonish as you are in the reels,” she added. The actress expressed her appreciation for the show’s efforts to create a “redemption arc” for the character, giving it more nuance and development. ‘Life Hill Gayi,’ directed by Prem Mistry and written by Jasmeet Singh Bhatia, features a star-studded cast including Divyenndu, Vinay Pathak, Mukti Mohan, Kabir Bedi, Bhagyashree, and Aditi Govitrikar.

Mumbai, July 30 Content creator and actress Kusha Kapila said what she likes most about ‘Life Hill Gayi’ is the way her character Kalki has been ‘humanised’.
Kusha said, “I have been creating content since 2017 and in 2019, I went solo as a content creator. I have portrayed this character of a South Delhi girl who is blinded by privilege and luxury, so in a way I understand why I was chosen for the role.”
The actress continued: “What I really love about the show is how it humanizes the character.”
The social media sensation explained that the character should not be as “caricature-like” as is possible on reels.
“I don’t think we were able to humanise them in the short sketches, but when you are portraying someone on screen, you cannot be as cartoonish as you are in the reels,” Kusha added.
“While the original idea may have been inspired by what I’ve done, the emotional and comedic depth came from the fact that the directors and the writers also wanted to humanize these characters while creating a legitimate redemption arc,” she said.
Directed by Prem Mistry and written by Jasmeet Singh Bhatia, the series also stars Divyenndu, Vinay Pathak, Mukti Mohan, Kabir Bedi, Bhagyashree and Aditi Govitrikar.
‘Life Hill Gayi’ will be available to stream on Disney+ Hotstar from August 9.
Kusha, who entered the television world in 2014, got her big break in 2020 when she appeared in the anthology ‘Ghost Stories’.
The actress also appeared in films like ‘Plan A Plan B’, ‘Sukhee’ and ‘Thank You For Coming’.
