'The Fame Game' Actress Rajshri Deshpande On First Meeting with Madhuri Dixit: I Was Nervous | Exclusive
In a conversation with News18.com, Rajshri Deshpande talked about The Fame Game, her role in the thriller drama, and her first meeting with Madhuri Dixit.

The Fame Game was released last month, and the web series has been widely appreciated by critics and audiences alike. The thriller drama marks Madhuri Dixit’s digital debut and she impressed viewers with her acting prowess as Anamika Anand in the series. The thriller drama also features Sanjay Kapoor, Manav Kaul, Muskkan Jaferi, and Makarand Deshpande, among others. Rajshri Deshpande as a no-nonsense cop in the web show also stands out as one of the brilliant performances.

As the web show is already a hit, viewers are curious to know if they will get to see the next season soon. In a conversation with News18.com, Rajshri talked about the web show and her role in The Fame Game, and her first meeting with Madhuri Dixit on the sets of the show.

When asked about anecdotes from the series’ set, Rajshri shared that it was a fangirl moment for her just like everyone else, who cross paths with the elegant Madhuri Dixit. She shared that even though they didn’t share the screen space together, she was lucky to meet the ‘Kalank’ actress.

“Because we were at the same premise and like a lot of time, it happened at the same space where she was also shooting. And then immediately after that, I was also shooting on the same sets. That’s how we met. When she met me and she got to know that I’m playing Shobha, we had a lovely chat and I told her, ‘Please give me some time because it’s a fan moment for me because I admire you and I follow you.’ I feel that Madhuri is everyone’s dream, and everyone loves her.”

She also shared that they bonded over the Marathi language and while talking to Madhuri, she felt her love and warmth. “I felt really good after talking to someone who is ‘The Madhuri Dixit’. I just felt as if I was speaking to someone I know personally, like talking to my big sister. On the sets, she always made everyone comfortable, including me. So, that was the first meeting with Madhuri, and I was really nervous.”

Speaking about the next season of The Fame Game, Rajshri said, “I don’t know how it’s going to be. I really can’t say that there’ll be a second season, or third season, but yes, definitely we all are looking forward to what happens next. I also want to know, will Shobha find Anamika, and after she finds Anamika what will happen. Previously, it was Anamika and Shobha now it’s an Anamika, Amaara and Shobha. It’s going to be interesting. So I really don’t know what’s going to happen, but, I’m really hopeful that the writer, the showrunner will create some more magic in the next season.”

As her character of Shobha Trivedi (a lesbian no-nonsense cop) in the series is one of the much talked about roles from The Fame Game, we asked her about her thoughts on it.

“For me, Shobha is a person who acknowledges and honours her vulnerable side, her strengths and her complexities. She is a particular section of society, but she doesn’t want to be loud on that to raise a point. Sometimes to stand out, we just need to blend in and make, fix the binaries of the normal that exists in society. And that I feel is the key to reclaiming what has been denied to certain communities and creating more equal and safe spaces for every single person. So that’s how she believes in that she means that I’m a normal, different person. It’s just my insurance and just my preference in life. I’m just a part of the society, as much as a man and a woman are, and so that’s how I look at her,” said Rajshri.

Netflix’s The Fame Game started streaming on February 25, 2022, and is being appreciated by audiences and critics alike.
