Anjali Anand has been on a roll over the past few months, with two successful web shows, Raat Jawaan Hai (2024) and Dabba Cartel (2025). While she admits that it has been tough bagging meaty roles in an industry that has stereotyped notions about female actors and their bodies, she is glad that perceptions are finally changing, albeit slowly.

Anjali says, "Everybody has a different struggle and obviously with my body, it's a bit harder. I don't feel I am different, but the society has created that perception. I believe I am special and I don't feel like a bechari. It's all about how you see yourself."
